From this trial and the Rittenhouse trial, one rule seems to really jump out: don’t attack the guy with the gun. Beyond the legal arguments, beyond even the deeper moral arguments, charging/attacking someone who has a firearm is a good way to get shot.
Sounds sensible. I suppose you would want to understand the situation, I'd say in both cases it prompted the firing of the weapon.
This case (as much as we can tell from afar) is the reason we have juries, and the same can be said about the Rittenhouse case.
The defendants in this case (probably) have the law on their side, I’m not so sure they have right on their side - and that’s what the jury is for.
In the Rittenhouse case, Kyle may or may not have had the law on his side, but he UNQUESTIONABLY had right on his side, which, thanks to the jury, is why he is a free man today.
Stupid move, and he paid the highest price for it.
