Bullshit. Keep the politics out of it.
The suspect should not have been released in the manner he was (low bail). IMO, while some of the reform towards release has tried not to make bail onerous, it is crazy (to me) when that is applied in a domestic violence charge. If someone is physically aggressive then they don't need to be released until they've gotten their shit together. He's going to prison and he should.
Is there a reason you believe only the wealthy should be allowed to fight their DV cases while out of custody?

Dallas is now a steaming pile of liberal bile. The population goes out of their way to lock step with nationalized liberal agendas that have negative impacts on the quality of life for citizens living inside the city limits. I blame stay at home white women for the most part. Not sure where they picked it up from.
This you?

As someone who has contemplated going solo as a criminal defense attorney, it never occurred to me that a way to find and retain clients would be to publicly disparage them at every turn.
Shit, the handful of times I've given statements to the media, I spend the better part of the day nervous that I came off as unprofessional or disclosed too much.

That Sandman kid made bank sueing news outlets for Slander...The kid with the MAGA hat that had the Indian pounding the drum in his face..CNN apparently did not learn the lesson and will probably hear from Kyle's lawyers..
For about the 4th time, I've asked for evidence of media defamation in this case. The responses I've received have been to some tweets by random persons, a quote from Joe Biden, and a two sentence summary of the Sandman kid.
I'm not sayin the media did not defame KR. But there are multiple posters who have repeatedly stated with certainty that KR will recover damages in a suit. I'm assuming - perhaps naively - that there is a basis for their opinion.

I expect that he’s going to sue a lot of people and win huge settlements.
And he may. I'd just like to see how media coverage in this case opens the door to defamation anymore than the average high profile case. Hell, Richard Jewell lost the only defamation suit he filed that did not settle, IIRC. Its a high bar.

I doubt it. He’s about to become extremely rich from all the settlements from the upcoming slander and libel suits he’ll be filing.
Honest question: is there an example in this case that is more extreme than the typical high profile case? Other than a New Yorker I read on KR, I really haven't followed this case all that closely.

As a matter of law, we can't treat someone carrying a firearm, with their hands on it in a position where it can be ready to fire in a second, as a threat. So, gotta wait till he starts slinging lead at La Michoacana shoppers before we can act in self-defense.
OR, we allow people to open carry whatever they want wherever they want, but anyone can deem them a threat if the armed guy's hands are on his weapon, and drop him cold in self-defense.
Those seem like two terribly stupid options.
How about you just don't fucking carry a gun everywhere, and you sure as shit don't put your hands on it if you do?
This.
Society moving in a direction of "bring your gun with you, solve problems with it" versus "leave your gun at home, having guns in every situation creates a high risk of deadly outcomes" is not a positive thing. But, here we are. Let's try an approach that even shitty old west towns figured out was a bad idea.
Remember that couple in St. Louis that pointed firearms at unarmed, Black protesters? The same folks defending Kyle also celebrated that couple. In their minds, the people pointing the assault rifle at the unarmed people were the victims.

You're right. Let me try again.
At my summer house my dumb servant-boy, Gilbert, accidentally broke my antique French Doors. I considered garnishing his wages, but I don't really pay him enough to make a dent, so I'm thinking about taking some money out of the house to replace them. And yes, I realize I could just sell one of my boats to cover the cost, but with a Regatta coming up, one can never have too many options.
Cheers.
