Right decision legally from what I’ve read. Probably not a nice guy, but by US laws not done anything wrong.

Who?

Was always going to go this way as the judge was shit scared he’d make a ruling that could set president for something the anti gun lobby could use.

Still a horrible piece of shit that went out to hurt people. See also Ched Evans.

Seems like even more of a big green light for opportunists with guns looking for something they can pretend to be threatened by

Completely agree, I'm not sure he went there for the right reasons but reading up on the case I'm surprised that people are surprised at the verdict. The people he shot are/were also not good people.

As outrageous as that is you're right and I agree with this, but as it was in the aftermath of George, I think we can count our blessings it wasn't the other way around. Can you imagine what the outcry would've been after a not guilty verdict?

They keep saying he was defending his second amendment rights. The second amendment was ratified in 1791, for fuck's sake. Backward country!

His attitude, intentions and even his demeanour on the night of the incident just demonstrates how fucked up America’s relationship with guns is.

If he was black he wouldn't be in court, he'd be dead. Look at the footage of the night in question and how he was acting and how the police responded, or rather didn't respond.

The he was just a nice guy out cleaning graffiti or administering first aid is clearly rubbish. He went looking to cause trouble and then when he got what he wanted was able to shoot people and claim self defence, the system is screwed. This wasn't some kid who just happened to get caught up in something through no fault of his own.

He sure went out of his way to put himself in a position where he had to defend himself. He must have just put his first aid kit, bucket and sponge down for this photograph.

I was wondering how useful an AR-15 was at cleaning graffiti and for first-aid.

The ruling is, probably, technically correct but I think it's safe to say he was definitely looking for trouble and not exactly tying to reduce the chances of there being a flashpoint. But it does set a dangerous precedent, cos basically now anyone will know they can stoke the fire and use it to claim self-defence.

I don’t think the gun nutters of the USA will ever be happy until they get to re-enact The Purge. That’s how batshit crazy some of them are.

I hope they shoot the fuck out of each other. To think that hellhole thinks it acts as the world's policeman

Doesn’t just think it is but acts like it is

just read this thread, the comments by Marty are a fucking disgrace

what a fucked up place this is

I too am pretty disgusted but not at all surprised by Marty's comments...so predictable. Defending a violent racist thug and portraying him as some hero, is just fcuking weird. Big tough American guys going out dressed in camo, armed with guns, bit like the young twats at Cov giving it the big un to away fans from about 100yards away or from behind a fence. Deep psychological problems and feel very sad for these sorts of guys who lack proper fulfilment...and yes that includes you too Marty.

Do you think he knew these peoples pasts when he shot them at point blank range or was he just out for a joy ride.

In fact their pasts don't matter. You can't just go about killing people (unless you're in America obviously)

You’ll have to ask Darrell himself. Luckily we now know Kyle was acting in self defence

Doesn’t this say more about Americas gun laws - I mean legally he’s allowed to walk around with a semi automatic…. It’s about reasonable doubt, as soon as he was attacked, another with a gun pointed it at him, It
Becomes self defence - rightly or wrongly

Agreed. The US gun laws in general are crazy but in particular allowing a minor to have control of a semi automatic....what could go wrong ?!

Oddly, well for us not the US, he was originally charged with gun possession as well, due to being under 16, but that was dropped as it seems military-style semiautomatic rifles aren't classed as guns due to the length of the barrel!

Not only did he get a not guilty on homicide he also got a not guilty on recklessly endangering safety. All seems very odd. How do you kill three people but not be recklessly endangering safety?

I find his behaviour odd for someone claiming self defence. If I had shot someone defending myself I'm not sure I'd turning up in bars with a 'free as fuck' t-shirt on and laughing & joking when arriving / leaving court. I'd probably need a serious amount of counselling even if it did turn out that one of the people I shot was a sex offender.
