Is tyler robinson crazy? And does it matter?

Indeed. Could be a set up. Again, highly unlikely but it's still possible.
^^^ this is why I don’t like leftists on a jury. They will bend over backwards to justify letting a murderer off.

Or they actually wait for the actual evidence?

Remember Richard Jewell?
 
That’s the big question. At what point does “free speech” incite violence?

Take, for example, the HAMAS supporters chanting “Death to Jews!” on campus. As a result of the antisemitism being promoted, Jewish kids have been bullied, assaulted, blocked from attending class, and so forth.
Death to Jews, or to anyone is unacceptable

However there is a grey area where the speech is not overtly threatening but has the power to incite violence none the less It is called stochastic hate speech. Kirk was masterful at it as is Trump. They are both responsible for the explosion of violence ,

AI Overview

Stochastic hate speech is hostile rhetoric that is broadcast to a large audience, creating a climate of fear and dehumanization that makes politically or ideologically motivated violence statistically more likely, even if an individual violent act cannot be predicted

Key characteristics
  • Mass communication: Stochastic hate speech relies on mass media, including social media platforms, to amplify derogatory messages.
  • Indirect incitement: Unlike direct incitement to violence, stochastic hate speech uses vague but inflammatory language that encourages violence implicitly. This allows the instigator to maintain a plausible deniability while motivating supporters to act.
  • Creates "lone wolves": This type of hate speech incites statistically predictable but individually unpredictable attacks from "lone wolf" actors, who act on their own without direct orders. The term "lone wolf" is often criticized, as it obscures the role of the rhetoric and environment in inspiring the violence.
  • Dehumanization: A core element of this rhetoric is the dehumanization of targeted groups, which lowers the psychological barrier to violence against them.
 
Interesting to note that the Reagan shooter, John Hinkley, was as sane as you and me and was clearly motivated by left wing politics but he got off with an insanity defense. On the other hand the John Lennon shooter Mark Chapman was as nutty as a fruitcake and was convicted and sentenced to prison. Somethin ain't right.
 
A crime almost always requires not just a guilty act but a culpable mental state.

And the reason for that is that society has long believed that one who is incapable (due to a serious mental disease or defect) of appreciating the wrongfulness of his conduct shouldn’t be deemed responsible for that behavior. Instead, they require mental care institutionalization.

All that being so, the defense is tricky and very dangerous. The defendant has to plead (through his lawyers) such a mental illness and the defense has the burden of proof.
That usually means admitting that he did the deed. So if a jury doesn’t buy the defense, it almost automatically yields a conviction.

Moreover, to claim that a defendant (like an accused assassin) didn’t grasp that his conduct was criminal is unlikely to prevail where he took action to conceal his identity and tries to hide evidence and fled the scene.

Tough job for his lawyer(s) — coming with tough decisions.

The defense sometimes known as SODDI may be the safer course. The acronym is “some other dude did it.” It fits nicely with the new conspiracy claims about the accused being a “patsy.”
If the killer is mentally sick that might save him from the gallows if touchy-feely libs insist

But, instead of death he should get prison for life with no possibility of parole
 
The fact is that you don't know a ******* thing about that kid, what motivated him and what his life had been like living in a MAGA cult
I dont care what motivated him

Its pretty clear he did it and that's all we need to know

Put him to death and be done with it

He won’t last long in prison.
 
You don't actually know that.
Do you think it could have been the Tooth Fairy gone rogue?

There is so much evidence against him already his guilt is obvious

When the legal system had performed its ritual Kabuki Dance the odds are 1000 to 1 for a guilty verdict

Nothing will ever be right in this un-Christian world. Everything will be different in the Next Realm, even though most people likely don't believe it will be (meaning: some will be shocked to find themselves in Hell when they thought they were being a good Christian..).

In the Our Father prayer it says "Your [God's] will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven"

and yet that isn't going to happen. We have to be satisfied with the level of justice we have... because some things in the human realm just never seem to change.. OJ was acquitted... I rest my case. I've read just about every book on that case (except the one he wrote) and he was guilty as a person can get.

It’s amazing how pro-criminal the leftists are, isn’t it? I just hope there isn’t one on the jury.
 
Since it’s physically impossible for Tyler to get convicted based on the “evidence” , well, I wonder what might possibly happen to make sure this never goes to trial

Zebra Oxford comma alert!
