he has already

2020-11-21 02:33:11 UTC  

Well he's not walking, he's on 2m bond.

2020-11-21 02:33:21 UTC  

Kinda far from walking.

2020-11-21 02:33:25 UTC  

He still risks life in prison.

2020-11-21 02:33:26 UTC  

Meant convicted

2020-11-21 02:33:56 UTC  

Everyone says he will best the charges. I dont see that.

2020-11-21 02:33:58 UTC  

Im pretty sure, if it was a black teenager attacked by nazi skinheads, he would have walked.

2020-11-21 02:34:31 UTC  

For some reason a 17 y.o. wanna-be cop and paramedic shooting communists, is judged differently.

2020-11-21 02:34:38 UTC  

I think he'll for sure beat the murder charges.

2020-11-21 02:34:43 UTC  

Other charges remain to be seen.

2020-11-21 02:34:45 UTC  

this would be the time to settle if he could while the rest are look at the elections

2020-11-21 02:34:53 UTC  

Particularly reckless endangerment.

2020-11-21 02:34:58 UTC  

lol

2020-11-21 02:35:00 UTC  

And the weapons-related charges.

2020-11-21 02:35:04 UTC  

@Doc and the black teenager knew Nazis were in another state rioting and willingly went in with a deadly weapon and killed 2 people?

2020-11-21 02:35:15 UTC  

hard charges

2020-11-21 02:35:24 UTC  

@Benny2Toes That would not be the narrative.

2020-11-21 02:35:34 UTC  

mandatory min

2020-11-21 02:35:48 UTC  

@Benny2Toes But that is the narrative now.

2020-11-21 02:36:33 UTC  

The truth is; the kid wanted to be a cop so bad he could not wait. He also wanted to be a paramedic. He wanted to be someone. And had no idea how the world works.

2020-11-21 02:36:49 UTC  

Yup

2020-11-21 02:37:16 UTC  

A good analogy I've heard toward this idea: If an underage woman had a concealed handgun, and went to a bar illegally and then there was an attempted rape on her person and she used a firearm in self defense, would we consider this murder?

2020-11-21 02:37:38 UTC  

She shouldn't have been there.

2020-11-21 02:37:45 UTC  

here? Yes. In the US? Probably not.

2020-11-21 02:37:48 UTC  

im still have not a great understanding on some of the laws..like endangerment little loss on the understanding

2020-11-21 02:37:52 UTC  

Confrontation was very much a possibility.

2020-11-21 02:38:00 UTC  

She brought a gun.

2020-11-21 02:38:31 UTC  

exactly. Planning a self defense situation will terminate any such claim here.

2020-11-21 02:38:41 UTC  

by definition.

2020-11-21 02:38:50 UTC  

Your laws, however, are different.

2020-11-21 02:39:00 UTC  

what happens if its ok to be there

2020-11-21 02:39:01 UTC  

You are allowed to plan self defense and still claim it.

2020-11-21 02:39:34 UTC  

whats plan mean

2020-11-21 02:39:50 UTC  

It would be more like a woman going into a bar knowing an attempted rape was likely or eminent, then claiming self defense.

2020-11-21 02:39:58 UTC  

I don't think he was planning to use his firearm.

2020-11-21 02:40:15 UTC  

ya dont think that would work

2020-11-21 02:40:36 UTC  

@osok if you carry a knife here, and claim you carried it in self defense, the court will say; "if you knew the situation could get dangerous and still approached it .- that is not self defense"

2020-11-21 02:41:18 UTC  

they could but if you carrie all time and its lawful

2020-11-21 02:41:22 UTC  

Also, what you're saying is that because he went out with a gun, he also forfeits his right to live.

2020-11-21 02:41:27 UTC  

That doesn't really matter. But assuming it did, of course he did. He might have thought it would deter violence but he had a loaded firearm at a riot. Ignorance can not be claimed here, IMO.

2020-11-21 02:41:31 UTC  

Because he made a dumb mistake.
