Due process means the fairness of our rights! The government has to follow the rules of everthing! Like a trial. If someone is accused of killing someone, the government has to go through all the legal actions to prosecute the criminal. Due process has to deal with our liberty and property too.

If the guy tries to press charges on you for shooting him. I'm pretty sure you can throw the self defiance due process card!
