It is not true that you WILL be charged with manslaughter and WILL have to defend yourself in court in PA. You MAY be charged, but so long as it was clearly self defense, most often, you will not. Unless you are referring to shooting someone while exiting the premise, in which case, I believe that's murder in PA.
