I’m sorry, but someone carrying around an AR-15 on American streets is not a “kid.”

He was 17, so regardless of his actions, he's still a kid. And he wasn't just walking around, he was defending business and property. Earlier in the day he was cleaning graffiti off of buildings in Kenosha
My favorite response to this circulating right now is a photograph of Ted Bundy doing dishes.

That was not his business or property. He was a vigilante.

How things change. I think that just 10 or 15 years ago a person risking their own safety to protect someone's else building from being set on fire and burned to the ground would be considered a hero.

I'm not saying that he's innocent. It's just crazy how "That was not his business or property" makes a valid point today.

Or the Jeffrey Dahmer Cooking Hour.
