If you shoot a person trying to rape your wife or kid, is it murder?

Sure. It may be that a jury acquits you because it's justifiable, but it's murder.

If you're acquitted, legally it wasn't murder.

Word games. Is killing in war murder? How about political assassination? Capital punishment, abortion, euthanasia, vehicular homicide?
Justifiable homicide is murder - the jury merely felt ok with your murdering ways.
