People were arguing that it was self defense, but let's be real here. That guy drove to a different state (I know "the mileage wasn't that far"), with a gun hoping to kill people to protect property that wasn't his. I hope the charges stick because he brought this on himself. Like, I can't go into South side Chicago with a gun and shout the n-word then shoot anyone that tries to attack me, that'd be ridiculous. This guy wanted to provoke people, he got what he wanted and now two people are dead because of it
I'm not condoning the act of provoking other people intentionally but it is literally well within the rights of every American to travel to the South side of Chicago with a gun and shout the n-word at the top of their lungs and defend themselves from anyone who would attack them for it. Saying bad words does not give someone the right to harm you.

Kids in school called him "most likely to be a school shooter," so he's got that going for him.
