Self defense? [View all]

What if a legally armed citizen shoots and kills one of a group of men he sees are armed yelling and rushing at him because he fears for his life? What if he fires shots at the group but misses everyone. They return fire, killing him in the process? Who gets charged and with what? Murder?

In the second scenario if the group of men is identified as government agents is tRump charged with anything as he issued the initial order for the attack from the top of the chain?
