FYI, "due process" does not include forcing law enforcement to take undue risk to apprehend a subject. The man has shot and killed law enforcement types on sight. There's no legal requirement for them to take a few rounds first, nor to have to break down a door and risk taking rounds in a narrow hallway.
Holing up in a cabin and firing at law enforcement would be considered "resisting with deadly force" and at that point any response necessary is legally appropriate. They don't have to have a "fair fight".
Some of you have been watching too many movies.

See especially the sections on "The Code of the West" to disabuse yourself of misconceptions.
