Kyle would have most likely died that night. And nobody but us would have known. If this case is allowed to continue and he is found guilty then the mask of us thinking that we have the God given right to bear arms and defend ourselves is gone.

The right remains, it is inalienable. That the govt in these states are doing their job to defend it... that belief is what will be gone.

I agree. But we will have to show them that we are willing to keep it.

I am confident we will not be alone defending (with words and paper, for now). Have you tried to buy ammo lately? :)

Endowed rights stem from our creator, the one that created all is everything that’s existing ...

A right doesn’t exist if it isn’t enforced. Without enforcement a “right” is no different from a “should.” It becomes merely an argument or an item on a wishlist.

I understand what you are saying, you just are jumbling rights into hopes. I have a inalienable right, I have it as part of my creation, inseparable. I hope the government enforces it. I also hope, if the government fails to enforce, that I will have the courage and fortitude to defend my right. I also hope that I have the wisdom and discipline to defend that right in the manner that best preserves that right for me, and my family/friends/neighbors. Even with all these hopes, the inalienable right exists, all the "hopes" come after.

I disagree with the idea of having a right by existing. It’s just meaningless. If a group of people genocides another group, and no one does anything about it, what good is it to have believed you had a right to not be genocide? I’m not the one who is confused. A right is a concept, and it is alienated from you when someone alienates it from you and nothing is done about it.

If you watch the "shoot me nigga" videos, there were several armed people on the BLM side who were armed, and one who even chambered a round in an obviously aggressive deadly threat way.

Kyle was also being chased by a mob (not just 1 person) at the time he fired the first shot. I think most people so far have glossed over that fact, since it's mentioned somewhat off-hand, but it is part of witness testimony.

Personally, I strongly suspect the mob that attacked Kyle during the 2nd and 3rd shooting was mostly made up of people who were chasing Kyle around the time of the parking lot shooting.

This. That guy was false surrendering with a gun in his hand so he could put a bullet in Kyle’s brain.

Shit. Sauce?

My only regret is that Kyle didn’t hit him 8 inches more to the right.

That jogger already had done a running leaping kick to Kyle's head while Kyle was down on the ground.

It is a shame the jogger did not get a lead pill.
