It clearly shows he initiated lethal force not in defense of self or others.

What he was trying to do is immaterial. He attacked with a lethal weapon, using lethal force.

If I shoot you in the knee trying to "disable" you, I'm guilty of assault with a deadly weapon.

... and when you bleed out and die from your knee wound, I'm guilty of manslaughter.

no, you're CHARGED with manslaughter. Guilt depends on the trial.

They did. I can't explain their reasoning, but certainly have to defer, at least somewhat, to it.

But even so, my original points stands. This was not self-defense, it was execution.

"it was not self-defense" granted "it was execution" not granted
