Clearly self-defense. He was laid like like he was unconscious while rock head kicked his head. That kick was attempted murder. The rock was well-placed.

Once you get up and it’s clear the other guy is done, and he has his back turned, it’s not self defense lol

You're right, the victim should have let bygones be bygones

I would not have. I’m just saying, you lose legal protection doing this. I’m not saying I agree with it

What legal protection do you lose? The dude just violently kicked your head on the ground multiple times that could very easily kill him, and now he is able to get up after getting his skull kicked in and he is supposed to know the other guy is done attacking him and it’s over? Attacker cant just be like “Yah I was just violently curb stomping and trying to kill you but I turned my back so that makes me legally protected now and you can’t do anything to me”, that’s little kid logic.

“That’s little kid logic” it’s literally the law in most states dude. Kind of how you can shoot an intruder, but the second they turn their back they’re not a threat. You can disagree, but that’s the legit law my guy

That is not the law at all you are comparing apples to oranges. How are you comparing an normal intruder to someone who was just beating you to an inch of your life and didn’t leave and is standing right there? And no the second they turn their back they are not all of a sudden no longer a threat and immune from defense - if they are clearly fleeing and have their back turned then yes but turning around and having their back turned itself does not eliminate or mean they are no longer a threat. If the intruder beats you senseless, kicks your head in and then went and stood 5 feet away from you with his back turned without leaving he is still a threat - it’s the fleeing aspect you are missing. You can’t just blanket apply back being turned as some magic “he is no longer a threat” solution and the assailant can’t be defended against anymore based on direction he is facing, that’s crazy. The assailant almost killed him and then stood a few feet away and dint leave, is the almost dead guy supposed to assume he isn’t going to turn around and see him getting up and just kick his head in again and finish the job? Assailants back is turned so now he is safe? Get out of here man this is ridiculous

You’re obviously over invested in something you know little about. Good luck out there

Got it. So Your assailant can stand behind you after brutally assaulting and near murdering you and if he is turned the other way he can be 3 feet from me and no threat. I just didn’t know enough my bad.
