Or cite "He crossed state lines!" as an exacerbating circumstance.

The people who use this argument don't seem to want to take into account that his father lived there. Typical of left-wingers...only present half of the truth!

Must have been the right verdict then. You know if he had done the same thing in WV they would be very upset with Kyle. He would have to explain why he missed the first guy that tried to attack him.
