We should all want citizens to stand up against mob rule. Riotous mobs should have NO expectation that they won't be met with armed resistance. That's the lesson I hope is learned.

It's not wrong for people to try to stand up against a mob. Even if he is just a kid. Even if he did puff himself up a bit. He wanted to be a do gooder. Nothing wrong with wanting to do something. We should all want to do something.

I am glad he was there, trying to do something. I respect his motives even if that's where it ended. But of course that's not where it ended.

Kyle was being chased through a dark parking lot by a violent rioter during a riot. There was a guy running 10 feet behind him when he turned and fired. That was a deadly threat no matter what, and he had the right to defend himself.

After that event, Kyle was kicked in the face while laying in the street with several people coming at him during a riot. THAT IS A DEADLY THREAT and he had the right to defend himself. No matter what else happened.

No question in my mind and I am glad the video existed and that the trial was televised. The truth is out there if people want to watch it. I am shocked at how much WRONG information is being passed around despite every moment of the night in question, and every moment of the trial, being available for review.

The democrat party and their corrupt media have nothing else to offer except race baiting and division.

Absolutely. Brandon himself sent out the war cry when he publically stated that this situation is directly associated with white supremacy.

Civil suits by the victim’s families will now be filed. This won’t be the last day in court for cry baby Kyle.

This is exactly the problem.

And if you're unattended at the border and are five, it's okay. If you're 17 in Kenosha trying to protect businesses, no bueno.

I was surprised, as well. I thought the amount of time it was taking was leaning toward a guilty verdict or hung jury.

Very! I think everyone should be armed at this point.

I think what she's saying is that in other cases black males were found guilty. She's disregarding how soft on crime Democrats have become where blacks are concerned, and how white people are canceled all the time just for speaking things that are true. She's also disregarding all the facts in the case.

Another airhead talking about the outcome without knowing all the facts. Geniuses, all of them.

A sane person might think that DeBlasio (not his real name) might have his hands full with all the violence in NYC instead of sticking his nose into Wisconsin's issues.
