For sure, and ultimately, Kyle the person is a complete unknown factor. Yes, he defended himself incredibly and valiantly in a way that is the definition of "self-defense" but without knowing the person we could only look at his actions. His actions were to defend his community, and ultimately his own life.
Whatever his views are, that's less relevant. We know Kyle as the symbol, not the person. He's also 18, and his actions show that he's virtuous where it counts. Let him believe BLM aren't bad or whatever else, plus we don't know how much coaching and editing was done on FOX's part.
The future will be when he gets vindicated by the media (of course they will try and settle), then I would prefer not hearing about him more, he's served better than most at his age.
To be fair, he might just want to minimize the target on his back. Theres 0% chance a right supremacist is going to kill him for saying he supports blm, and by saying that he might stop 10% of the left supremecists from wanting to kill him
