Will You Be Indicted if You Killed Someone for Spitting in Your Baby's Face?

I thought the case in Texas brought up some interesting questions. We all know spitting is illegal, but what if someone walked by your baby and intentionally spit in his or her face, and walked away? Your first reaction would be to hurt this person very badly, but what if you accidentally killed him in a beat down? What precisely would be the difference in this case as opposed to the case in Texas, where a father killed a ? for molesting his daughter? What if you were just a passerby and saw this and killed the perp? Neither situation warrants deadly force, even if one did involve physical assault of some kind to a small child. It would seem to me that you would be immediately indicted and sent to jail, especially if the deceased was a white man instead of a mexican day worker. Isn't that really the only difference? Let's be honest. I'm glad the ? is dead, but this case would appear to have set a very weird precedent in my opinion.
