Both of these characters were responsible for their own deaths.

So say Arbery had been legally carrying his own weapon and upon being accosted by two armed white guys had pulled it out and shot them both, do you think he would have gotten off on self defense?

Yes.

In the case that you post, I believe there would most likely have been an acquittal, based on "self-defense".
