He got exactly what he wanted — a fun murder spree killing liberals with no consequences.
He killed two violent assholes who not only thought attacking people on the streets for their opinions is acceptable, but were dumb enough to attack and keep attacking someone with a gun in his hands. I give zero shits about if he wanted to do it.
It was not murder, since murder means killing illegally, which this was not. Not even if he was hoping they would attack him and went there for that purpose.
Orchestrating a scenario in which the only possible outcome is self-defense by deadly force sounds an awful lot like premeditated murder, to me. I think you should reevaluate what you consider pedantry.
It absolutely is considered goading. If lifting your shirt to reveal a gun holstered can be considered a threat (one that police can legally shoot you over) then carrying a rifle at a protest and starting shit with the protestors is also a threat.
He didn’t go there to make his voice heard — he went there to intimidate and kill.

People attacked him because he had a big gigantic deadly gun and was goading a literal angry mob with the gun.
It’s now more clear to me than ever that you are intentionally acting in bad faith. What is wrong with you?

You could have picked from so many different reasons to why this was not murder, but this one takes the cake.
I have another one!
Murder is a crime, and Criminals are in Jail.
Since he is not, it could not have been murder! CHECKMATE LIBERALS /s
