There's no case for self defence here. These guys weren't fearing for their lives and the situation was under control. There was even a spare ICE agent available to raise his arm and block people from coming any closer to the scene before they did the execution.

Also the video clearly shows the goons harrassing a lady which is what made the victim get involved.
