Morally Speaking

Is it correct to shoot someone on the throat if they rip you off a slow moving motorcycle, then punch you once? A person who is no longer my friend was playing Watchdogs 2 or something, and that happened. He hadn't provoked the NPC (or so he said) but the guy took him off his bike, which, in the video he sent me, moved rather slowly, then punched him once. He shot the guy and thought nothing of it casually slipping it into the conversation, as he was talking about Watchdogs at the time. I told him that that seemed a little extreme, and that there are a thousand other ways for him to neutralise that threat, and we got into a super heated argument about whether he should have done that. Personally, what hammered the nail in the coffin for me was when, instead of Googling whether his victim could have survived a throat shot, he Googled his state laws about that kind of stuff. I don't know what state he lives in, but if it's perfectly legal to do that there, (I doubt he actually told the truth though) I do not want to live there. I get that it is his legal right to defend himself, but the NPC put his hands up for Arkay's sake! Well, he tried, but my buddy shot him just before the animation put him into that pose. So, who's right?
