1. none of those...i would just pull the plug
and i dont know any of the others.....i just saw that one on a site...but i believe it was a joke and went something like this
  Spoiler: joke 
During a visit to a mental institution the visitor asked the Director:
'How do you determine whether or not a patient should be institutionalized?'

'Well,' said the Director, 'we fill up a bathtub, then we offer a teaspoon, a teacup and a bucket to the patient and ask him or her to empty the bathtub.'

'Oh, I understand,' said the visitor. 'A normal person would use the bucket because it's bigger than the spoon or the teacup.'

'No.' said the Director, 'A normal person would pull the plug. Do you want a bed near the window?'

1) Pull the plug is what I'd say as well

2) |\| | |\| E (four lines in the capital E) (three lines in each N) (one line for the I) (that makes eleven)

3) My eyes glazed over as they always do when gun stuff appears... maybe the swordsman killed the gunman before he loaded his gun or something...

4) Shooter = left handed?

1 and 2 are correct, those were the easiest and probably some of the most common riddles out there.

3 and 4 are incorrect, I only said that there was a shot fired, but it hit the man in the right temple, while the shooter was facing the left temple. The key here is well... What was the right temple facing when he was shot?

Also, the swordsman, indeed did kill the man, but the shots were all loaded before the man arrived to the scene. The key is the gun.

4. A man was towing a cart. He was stopped by a gunman, but upon hearing the words of a witness, the man turned to face right, he was then shot in the right temple. It wasn't possible that he was shot in the right temple, since the man's left temple was facing the gunman. How was it possible that the man was shot in the right temple, rather than the left?
#3) the gunman surrendered? Or there were blanks in the gun.

#4) The gun man was walking in the opposite direction of the man. From the gunman's view, the wagon man was on his right. When he walked passed the wagon man, the wagon man turned to the gunman's right and was shot in the right temple then kept walking.

But, saying this is from the gunman's view, to him, it would look like he went to the left side of the wagon man. (It's a perspective thing i believe). Even though it was the Wagon man's right side, to the gunman, it was the gunman's left, if ya get what I'm saying.

I'll just make it clearer on their positions.

The man was towing the cart behind him, and was stopped by a gunman, directly in front of him. The witness was on his right, but was shot after he turned his head to face the witness.

Also, the gun's caliber has something to do with the swordsman, gunman part.

3. maybe the gunman shot to himself (he hold it wrong way)
but you said the swordman killed him eh?
or maybe the bullets bounced at swordman's sword?
