The court did not agree and found Kyle did not murder those people but killed them in self defense…That is silly.
Of course Kyle shot Grosskreutz AFTER he had pointed a gun at Kyle.
But LONG after Grosskreutz had raised the pistol up into the air.
Grosskreutz at first assumed Kyle was the "active shooter".
Maybe he was?
A normal person would likely have fired a warming shot before shooting Rosenbaum 5 times.
Does anyone need to shoot an unarmed person 5 times?
I don't think so.
But the point is Grosskreutz was a professional MedTech, so then raised his hands when he realized he was not going to shoot Kyle.
So Kyle was not shooting in defense when he pulled the trigger on Grosskreutz.
And by the way, Kyle did TRY to shoot Grosskreutz right away, but the gun jammed and he had to recycle the action.
