The few people that survived Waco were all exonerated in the name of defending themselves b/c the LEOs never announced themselves upon invading the compound.
I've always been afraid of the case where I am up against one of the few bad LEOs out there. Even if you dispatch a bad LEO in self-defense, the rest of the force is going to be after you and we all know how those typically end. However, I haven't ever been for dying in my sleep or letting the bad guy win either. It sounds like you would almost never encounter such a situation other than during a natural disaster like happened in New Orleans.
You should never follow an un-lawful order. I think that was even proven in the courts for Vietnam, if you shouldn't know that from your own morals. If you defend yourself against someone following an unlawful order, then you should be justified.
