I realize the prosecutor is just doing his job, but what a prick. The way he kept saying AR15 over and over again and then talked about missing bicep guy being no threat bc he only had a pistol. Fucking seriously? A pistol pointed at his head was not a threat bc he had a big bad AR. Wanted to strangle him by the end.

A prosecutor's nominal job is to advocate for justice. Binger and Tubby are advocating for anarchotyranny. They are vermin that are lower than the trash Kyle dropped in the street.

The way he kept saying AR15 over and over again

The left loves to fearmonger about the AR15, even though very few crimes are committed with it in comparison to other options, even among rifles. (The AR15 is an expensive weapon compared to a lot of other directly comparable weapons)

Many gun owners think this is because the left media are morons who single out the AR15 for demonization for being an 'evil black rifle' and looking scary.

I have another theory:

The AR15 is singled out for demonization because it is predominantly owned by whites.

I'd say it's singled out because it's a damn effective weapon. They don't want us having riot control capabilities.

There are an absolute litany of guns that would work just as well against unarmoured targets at point blank range.

Hell, even a machete would've worked for Kyle.

By that prosecutor's logic, there shouldn't have been any bruhaha about January 6, even if some rare people carried rifles: after all, the government has nukes, and those with the bigger gun automatically are immune to all damage from the smaller ones.

Appropriate that he talked about "violent video games" then, since that's complete video game logic. Byecep should've unlocked a bigger gun before deathmatching against someone in Kyle's rank.

The prosecutor isn’t doing his job he’s seeking a conviction not justice.
