I'm sorry. He's 17. According to the law, he should not have a firearm. Also, regardless of intention, no sane person shows up to an out-of-state riot, armed with a long gun. He did not belong there at all. He's 17. No reason to show up, much less get involved.
#JusticeForKyle
Let me me fully transparent: I condemn rioting, looting, and violence. These people are lost, uneducated, godless losers and THUGS.

So let law enforcement do their jobs. No one else should be showing up to "counter-protest" with irrational people. That's just fuel on the fire.
violence + violence = you guessed it, more violence!

These people are not rational. They are anarchist losers. So what sane person, on the other side of the political spectrum no less, would show up, armed? To an already tense demonstration?
"It was self-defense!" "He shot a pedophile!" Listen. No one should have been shot, by anyone. We KNOW these people are out-of-control, animalistic. Dude should not have been there. I'm not, by ANY means, excusing what happened to Kyle. You have to assume his heart...
...was in the right place, because that's the info available right now; cleaning up graffiti, trained EMT, wanted to help, etc. But he was, IMO, unnecessarily recklessly putting himself in a dangerous situation. The mob came after him. He defended himself? Up to a court of law.
Now his name and image are out there, and he's not even 18 yet. An irrational decision to even show up in Kenosha, regardless of his intentions. Immediately he's labeled a "white supremacist" because of our ass-backwards identity-based Western political climate.
