I'll double down on that one by saying most gamers know SWAT are trained killers that are more likely to use force than regular police. This is features in shooter games a lot. Especially in Call of Duty, the players have to regularly do "breaches" that hit a room SWAT-style with bad guys shot as quickly as possible. Many breaches also simulate chaos that happens where player initially has trouble identifying friend or foe.

A CoD player who isn't mentally impaired or something specifically sending in a SWAT team on a target who is shot by the team should be charged first degree at the start. Similarly for anyone else that clearly knew what a SWAT team does from games, movies, or other media. Prosecution might act mercifully from there depending on the circumstances. They better know they can do first-degree, though, with enough locked up to hopefully be a deterrent.
