You guys forgot the part where the people killed was a convicted pedophile, a convicted wife-beater, and a convicted burglar (with an illegal firearm).....if a claim of self-defense is going to be made, they have to establish reason to use self-defense in the first place. Kyle (most likely) will say that his opponents were being life-threateningly aggressive to him, especially running in a pack during the riots, so the counter-argument would have to land on the prosecution to deliver character witnesses which speaking against their aggressiveness; the DA would have to prove they were inherently good innocent kind people who were there in "peaceful protest", and Kyle gunned them down without remorse first.

I highly doubt the prosecution can pull that off.

Nah, he will claim that god was giving him the information that all three of those guys had criminal records and thus why he shot.
