I think the verdict was correct, given the evidence at trial and the law of the land.
Unfortunately, the law of the land is fucked up. It is designed to protect white vigilantes. Kyle should get years in jail just for being there with the AR15, but in the land of "guns have rights", any white person can open-carry anywhere without consequence, and confront anyone they don't like.
Once a confrontations starts, the gun-owner just has to say "they were going to kill me, so I had to shoot them".
In Kyle's case, one of the persons may have wanted to do just that, and its very hard to prove they didn't (when they are dead).
In a sane country, the presence of the weapon should've been enough to get a conviction on something.
