If someone attacks you and you overpower them and then you proceed to stomp their head into the ground and kill them, you're going to be charged with a crime. It doesn't matter if you were just minding your own business and didn't ask to get attacked. It doesn't mean society is OK with people being attacked or that the person who was killed wasn't a major factor in what happened, but it's still a crime.

Well no, side of the head while Stanley reached into the vehicle to try and grab the keys.
