I hope he’s convicted and sent to prison for a long time, but my gut tells me he’s only going to get a slap on the wrist, or he’s going to walk.

I'm pretty sure he's gonna walk...

He looks to be going for the Oscar for Best Actor today.

He made the choice to drive 45 minutes (across three counties and a state line) to confront people with a gun. (an AR 15)

He broke the law to be there, armed.

Right then and there, any claims of “self-defense” go out the window, because he did it during the commission of a crime.

If he walks it's a message that what he did is ok....a message that you can do this without punishment.

If he walks so many other like him will follow suit. Sad really.

I agree. The cards are stacked in his favour.

I agree...it seems that the Judge has taken a liking to that killer....perhaps he wants to adopt him...
 

Closing arguments are set to begin tomorrow...
 

one of the charges has been dropped

He should NOT walk.

Third day of deliberations has ended....still NO verdict

whichever way this goes, it will rally the far right.  If he's convicted, he becomes a martyr.  If he walks, it makes it ok to go out an shoot unarmed people "in self defense."

I'm disgusted by this decision.  He's now a hero
