But if it is true, there is a damn good chance any of those people who witness someone undoing what they just did is going to have a big problem with it, and with that person

This is kinda common sense shit, even a 17yr old should understand. I'm not victim blaming here, but let me use an analogy. I see a store being robbed by a gang. I stand outside as the gang hands merchandise hand over fist out the window to a waiting truck. I pull out my phone and the gang can now hear me saying "yes 911, I'd like to report a robbery". All of a sudden I get knocked the F out! Or shot. Or stabbed. But definitely something. When all I would need to do to avoid this would be to move out of earshot and eyesight of the gang THEN call the police. Again pretty common sense shit

Just because something is the RIGHT thing to do, doesn't mean there isn't still a dumb way to do it
I see your point, but I feel like on that particular night under the circumstances, there's really nothing you could do short of actively joining and participating in the riots to avoid getting attacked by those psychos, and even then they might still find a reason to attack you.

The blame ultimately has to lay with the rioters who clearly made the decision to pursue and attack him. He took every opportunity to get away, repeatedly told them he was no threat to them and meant no harm, and they kept chasing him and throwing things at him. "Unarmed" is a stupid argument always, you can kill somebody with one punch to the face, especially on pavement where they can fall and split their head open. That is ostensibly what the first pedo guy was trying to do.

Once you point out it was legit self defense, people then pivot to "yeah well, he shouldn't have gone out there! If he hadn't gone out there, those people would still be alive!". Like, that's great, and if those idiots hadn't decided to riot Kyle wouldn't have gone out there. See? We could do this all day, but it's all mental gymnastics to blame the side you wanna blame. He's 100% innocent, and even if you hate the guy you should be able to admit that or you're just being dishonest.

(Btw when I say "you" I don't mean literally you, but rather some of the other posters itt)

Yep, all true too

All he had to do to be attacked by those people would be to be identified as a conservative. It was only a matter of time before that happened, unless like you said he dressed like them and engaged in what they were doing

This is why I keep coming back to the shouldn’t have been there unless he was prepared for a fight, and one involving his gun be brought, so prepared for a strong possibility of killing other people

On conservative sites they’ve posted memes of other people from the 2020 riots who tried resisting the mob. I can’t even post them here because what happened to them is too graphic. One of them includes pictures of “crossbow guy” as I call him, all twisted up on the pavement from getting his head stomped, presumed dead or with brain damage.. and there’s others too who suffered a similar fate

Im pretty sure screaming shot me shoot me at the police and setting a city on fire for 100 days is asking for it too though no? Does that mean if Tiananmen square them it makes it ok?

Unsungmondaymorningquarterback,

So, if i see something on fire in public, I should ignore it, or I'm a white supremacist terrorist?

Where I come from, heroes run toward the crisis, cowards flee and tell someone else, and by then the innocent victims are dead, but im sure solace can be found in having done, "the right thing, the smart way"

anyway bro, did you ever end up bangin' that cutie temp girlie from work?

I’ve made this point before, he said he was there to do some good, and that meant helping people and putting out fires

If him or I are there to do some good, we will be able to do the most good when not being attacked by other people. Therefore priority 1 in the doing good should be: make sure the scene is secure before rendering aid. It’s the same protocols that EMT’s and paramedics use, something that Kyle seems to aspire to be

They have these protocols not because they are cowards, but because they will be incapable of doing the job they are there to do, and become a new liability for others to need to now assist when they get hurt
