re: #38 Ace Rothstein

That kid is going to be made into a hero, isn’t he?

I’ve already seen comments defending him and asserting that he was defending himself against a mob of protesters.

It’s possible that his family had advanced knowledge of his plans — but it’s equally possible that they were blindsided by his actions. He wouldn’t be the first teenager to lie to his parents about where he was going or to sneak out of the house. Haven’t as yet heard any personal details about the suspect’s family.
