Fox News should be ashamed of themselves.

This is the narrative they're pushing about the Kenosha terrorist on their front page.

I didn't edit this post, but I just made another post with a picture and used your advice. I really appreciate it. I would have never figured it out on my own!

Can you imagine if a 17 yo POC has decided to open fire on the Charlottesville protestors? It sure wouldn't be that headline

He cake a long way to insert himself into a scar, chaotic situation. He brought a completely inappropriate, lethal weapon that was, at least for him, illegal into the scene.

If it's true that others were trying to disarm him, and presumably he feared for his life because they might take away his gun and use it on him, then he bears a lot of the responsibility for bringing about the situation in which he "feared for his life".

Maybe terrorists can use this logic. Hey, I only grabbed those people and shot them and detonated that bomb because the police and fbi pointed their guns at me! I was afraid for my life!
