  1. TL;DR Kyle shot too much ; WI law allowed weak acquittal. In KY acquittal would be strong. Reasonable retreat not possible while surrounded; more harm if tried to. KY law allows open carry; concealed carry with license. KY has "stand your ground law" superseding castle law. I don't like stand your ground, but it is reasonable and might protect black people. Opinion My personal view is that Kyle shot too many bullets for his purposes. But he was retreating from a mob intent on hurting him. Of the drop - kick guy I feel Kyle was in the right for self - defense and he had no way to retreat, not only because he was surrounded (!) by people intent on hurting him (he could reasonably expect that), but that rolling away from drop - kick guy would have put himself in danger of other attackers, and possibly hurting himself with his own gun. In my state KY we do have a "Stand Your Ground" with no duty to retreat that supersedes castle doctrine. The more I think about "Stand Your Ground," the more justified I think it is. I don't like it, but I think it's reasonable. Under WI law I think the verdict was weak. But I see no way for it to be anything but murky. Under KY law, Kyle would be more likely to be acquitted under "Stand Your Ground." KY has an open carry law (it's allowed) and licensing of concealed carry. Conceivably it might be too strengthen cases to defend black people when they might kill a white person. Such laws shouldn't have to exist, and one could argue that no laws should need to be written. But this is not Paradise, and the spiritual law of love isn't respected universally.
