The circumstances of the guy having already been charged and having two other people in the car with him turns this from, "I guess I can see giving Cain a bit lighter of a sentence but it's still very bad," to, "Nah, f*** him, throw the book at him," for me.

I hope he goes to jail for a lonnnnngggg time. No sympathy. If it were an ordinary person, I'd say the same. Vigilantism can and does go wrong. Let the criminal justice system handle it. Lol the criminal justice system doesn’t do it’s job half the time. I mean Cain def made a huge mistake shooting at the car but any father would of wanted to do the same.

He could have hurt/killed others around the vehicles with one wrong shot. Would you still be defending him if his bullet(s) hit a child in another vehicle?

An innocent man was injured, an innocent woman could have been killed, if one of those bullets hit the car in the wrong spot, the car blows up it could kill any number of people who happen to be in the area. He endangered a lot of people who had nothing to do with this situation, and however understandable his motive that can't be excused.

Also I kind of keep seeing the, "Anyone would have done this," excuse and... No? Nope. Plenty of people go through the same thing and don't immediately snap to, "Do a driveby that could potentially kill the person's family."

People can want to do something unhinged when they're in anguish, but there's a gulf between that and acting on it like this, and now their kid might have to grow up without their father because of their lack of self-control. It sucks, to say the least, but even under these circumstances, Cain is responsible for his own actions and even with mitigating circumstances, this is probably going to be a stiff charge. Maybe he gets lucky and they offer him a plea deal, but that's likely the best he can hope for.

It's a case where you completely understand someone's anger&pain and want to hurt or kill a person that did that. Most can 100% empathize.
Thing is though, while morally totally justified you're likely putting yourself in a position to maybe not being able to see your kid for a very long time which ultimately doesn't help them either.

I didn't screencap it, but Ronda Rousey weighed in on Twitter saying she'd have done the same or worse.
Some dude responded: "oh, you think THIS shooting happened."
Damn dude. TKO. Hahaha

My main complaint here is that a guy who made a career literally knocking people on their ass felt the need to use a gun.

Even if there were not innocent people in the car with them, it would not be worth it as a father to do something like that and potentially missing out on raising my kids for revenge.

Yeah, if Cain took enough pre-caution to make sure that the molester was the only person he hurt, I would be all for slapping the dude on the wrist.
Unfortunately, Cain put a couple innocent people in jeopardy, and could have also hit someone outside the vehicle with a bullet too.

Amazing to think that we were very close to Cain being another guy WWE trotted out there for big events and tried to use as a draw for star power over their current stars... maybe one of the smartest choices they ever made effectively deciding to NOT do that after that horrendous Mysterios/Brock feud.
And Ronda getting torched on social media is great, she's a dumbass, and I hate that she's in a top Mania match again, she doesn't need a platform.

Think people going 'Well, if he'd gotten the right person, I'd be fine with him getting a slap on the wrists' are forgetting that the person he tried to murder had not yet been proven guilty and convicted of a crime. This isn't a case where someone attacked someone who got off on a legal technicality, he decided not to let the law play out and went to hunt them down and try to kill them, not caring who gets caught in the crossfire.
