    I will absolutely concede trans people are much more likely to be the victim of violence. I know enough to see this first hand. How does that in any way negate that she might be there instigator?

      It doesn’t, but it means I’m far more willing to give her the benefit of the doubt until there’s solid evidence that she was, in fact, the one who started the violence. (And pepper-spraying someone who’s threatening you doesn’t count.)
