    Per his comments he went with a gun to provide protection.  Same as that 17 year old kid.  Different sides, same outcome.  Both killers and assholes.
    Both killers and assholes, but not the same, exact outcome. The 17-year-old will at least stand trial and, who knows, maybe even get off. This other guy, since he claimed self-defense in his Vice News interview, might have been heading towards a similar trial with the same defense, but now he's dead. 
    I guess by outcome I meant someone's dead.  Heck in each case 2 people are now dead.  I know what you mean though.

    Yes both killers and assholes. Pretty simple. Yet each side will defend theirs while shitting on the other. Fucking weird 
    I’m just glad he was stopped before he could hurt anyone else.

    Oh I got ya. You were talking from a "going to a riot scene with a gun" perspective, and how that led to there being victims.

    I think this guy and Kyle are both pieces of crap.  I was just posting the sort of justifications I saw for Kyle to point out how ridiculous it was.   Nobody should be bringing weapons to these events.  If the police were doing their jobs they would be paying enough attention to keep the people that are lighting shit on fire from doing so. If we didn’t have an unnatural love of guns these shootings wouldn’t have happened. And of course if police weren’t killing black people at a crazily disproportionate rate to white people we wouldn’t be here at all.   Not that that justifies any killing of any people.  I get it some situations are tense and your life is in danger but most of the situations that have led us here have not been those fear for your life moments.

    The guy that shot the “Trumper” in Portland tried pulling his gun on police and it didn’t end so well.
    If he was white, he'd still be alive.

    Especially a murder suspect who has just admitted to gunning down someone in the street? 

    Have we really divorced ourselves that much from critical thinking?

    Sometimes they do.  See Rittenhouse, Kyle.

    But yeah, pull a gun on a cop and you're usually going to get shot.  This may have even been suicide by cop.

    Yeah unlike the thug kid Kenosha he walked tonight up after killing two no problem ,he got to sleep in his bed no problem! I’m not condoning of anyone killing protesters no matter who they support just pointing out the differences in approach!

    Technically this guy got to sleep in his own bed afterwards for more nights than Kenosha kid.

    Kyle never pulled a gun on a cop. He walked up with his hands in the air.
    I'm not defending Kyle, I don't think he should have been there in the first place. But you can't compare him to a guy who actively pulls a gun on a cop.

    That guy, who may or may not have had a mental imbalance, was free to claim "100% Antifa" all he wanted. Does not mean that there is any sort of organized group or that they are a threat to anyone other than the right wing dipshits who come out looking to fight with anyone they deem to be "Antifa".

    Is that a satire site? Because does anyone believe because a couple weirdos do it that “Face masks with gun pocket is the new right wing couture”?
     If not for this post I probably would have never known these even exist. I doubt anyone in this thread will ever see one in person. Hardly the new fashion craze the article makes it sound like.
    I thought this was a version of the onion at first, but I don’t think so.
