in most cases if you were actually attacked and killed somone you could claim self defense. But if they were just being verbally abusive and you pulled a gun, even if you did not fire the gun you could get charged with several offenses. Attempted murder, Agrivated assault, and Assault with a deadly weapon just to name a few. However if someone came into your house and started talkign shit, you could put up to 3 bullets into them before it becomes murder. Under 3 I believe is considered self defense in your own home. If they are on your property you have to warn them 3 times, if they do not leave you can use force. If they attack you then you can kill them.
