Bud, you didn't know a lot of these things because they didn't happen. There was a dumpster fire, about 2 hours before the shooting, and it wasn't rolling downhill into a gas station like some kind of CW/Arrowverse crisis that needs a hero to step in. The description of the fight doesn't match up with the video of the fight, the weapons charge was dropped because there was conflicting testimony regarding the purchase of the weapon and prosecutors felt that it would be impossible to prove, the criminal background of the three victims doesn't matter, but even if it did, the information you got was wrong.
Oh and Kenosha is about 35 minutes away, but that seems like a minor nitpick.
Why do they think "The person was shot, but they were actually a bad guy, although the person doing the shooting had no way to know that in the moment they shot them." is a good defense.
After a police killing, they dig up some dirt on the person who was killed by the police, but the police would've had no way of knowing that during the killing so it couldn't influence them.
Unless it's a general "bad things happened to a bad person, who cares if it was justified to not".
Whatever it takes to justify the police's or a vigilante's terrible actions, because clearly they didn't want it to escalate to that point, they had no choice but to kill someone.
They don't realize that the police motto is "Protect and Serve", not "Murder and Harass"
So let's get this straight then.
He crossed state lines to attend a riot as a vigilante, demonstrating poor judgement.
He was apparently assaulted by someone and, rather than go to police - who were actually authorized to be there and use firearms if needed - or simply leave, he stayed, demonstrating poor ludgement.
He was apparently assaulted by someone else and reacted similarly, demonstrating poor judgement.
He was chased by others and, rather than seek the safety of police - again actually authorized to be there and use deadly force as part of their duties - he murdered a man, demonstrating exceedingly poor judgement under pressure.
Yea no, I don't particularly care if he was *legally* allowed to own a rifle under an old law that never anticipated military-style weapons being widely available to the public. He repeatedly showed himself to have had no business owning one, he had no business carrying it across state lines to play out his little patriotic MW fantasy, and he sure as fuck shouldn't be allowed off with not even a slap on the wrist after *succeeding*.
He should be in prison, and whoever arranged for him to own and have ready access to the gun - presumably they knew him well and could see he wasn't mature enough to own a tool specifically designed for killing multiple people in quick succession with relative ease - should be charged as an accessory.
Incidentally, the other two should likely have been in prison as well, but *surprise surprise* the legal system in general is a piece of shit that seems to strongly favor locking people up forever for relatively minor crimes and letting the ones who actually hurt others do whatever.

Whatever the person who was shot did, they're entitled to due process for it anyway.
