    No, apparently you don't get it. If you hang out where YOU KNOW there's shit being slung there's a very good chance you're going to get shit on you.

    When you spot trouble of that nature the very first thing to do is to safely exfiltrate the area at your very earliest opportunity.

    Personally I would heed your advice, but on the other hand he had as much right as the BLM protesters to be there, he (apparently) had a right to carry a gun, and he has the right to self defense if his life or limb is threatened. They on the other hand doesn't have the right to threaten him. He was convicted, they weren't, it is an obvious misstep of justice, by a racist court. You can bet that the verdict had been very different if he had been a lone journalist/writer black man with a gun, getting in the way of a KKK-rally. The two situations are certainly morally/ethically equivalent.

    How about being realistic and practical? Now there's a novel concept. /s

    As I said first I personally would heed your advice. Nevertheless in the situation Strickland got himself in, and which he was within his right to get himself into, he was also in his right to defend himself. And for that a racist anti white court condemned him, and sided with the aggressors!
