As we saw in St. Louis, idiot prosecutors can charge with whatever they want, but it won’t stick.
The more important fact here is that a 17 year old was attacked by a rioting mob of left-wing supporters and he is still alive.
I understand a complete fucking retard like you siding with the rioting mob and hoping for the politicized murder of a child. It’s the exact reason that liberal assholes like you, PrimePedo Jay Milton Osborne III, and Strawman Rob Ziruolo need to be put down for good. No discussion, no negotiation, no sympathy or mercy, hunted down and ended forever.
1. I agree that the charges will (likely) be changed to murder II or manslaughter due to the riot conditions and chaos.
My main issue with this kid is, he traveled to be there and wasn't defending his home or family business.
I don't like it when anyone uses violent means , looting , blocking streets in the name of "protest".
To be fair, I also think outside agitators with fireworks , rocks or paintball guns need to be arrested regardless of their politics.
Biden strongly condemned violent actions and looting and said they weren't legit protests and need to be prosecuted. ( Pittsburg speech AUG 31 )
2. I defend the actions of the St Louis couple that brandished arms but did not shoot when confronted by an protest mob.
It never got to that point, so they never needed to fire their weapons at the protest mob.
I do think the protest organizers should be charged with the cost of the iron gate they mangled.

You can be sure, I'd have be armed and ready, if some angry mob or robber tried to enter my home.
As a former US marine, I can tell ya , we didn't get trained to go in and "talk" to the enemy.

I'm 100% behind defending your home or property via legal arms, but I'm against any form of violent protests, period.
I'm a big supporter of the 1st and 2nd amendments.
