Anyone else watching the Kyle Rittenhouse trial?

[Fogdog]

Safari for what? Graffiti that he cleaned off the walls? It sounds like Rosenbaum was actually trying to commit suicide. He had tried to kill himself days earlier in a McDonalds parking lot and I’m thinking he was trying to finish the job

Explain again why an armed to the teeth Rittenhouse walked into a crowd of people protesting racist police violence where some looting and vandalism had occurred earlier? Seems fishy to me. Not that this proves his guilt but it adds to the case against him. That, and his flight from justice after he killed three people, one of whom he shot in the back. Oh and let's include the call he made to a friend instead of to 911 as was asked of him. That too could make one skeptical of his claims of innocence. These are objective facts. You can't deny they happened. Three damning facts. I wonder if the jury will use them when making their decision regarding guilt in these charges:

First-degree reckless homicide, use of a dangerous weapon
First-degree recklessly endangering safety, use of a dangerous weapon
First-degree intentional homicide, use of a dangerous weapon
Possession of a dangerous weapon by a person under 18
Failure to comply with an emergency order from state or local government


The last two charges are self evident. 6 months in prison, $200 fine. The judge could waive the punishments but he's guilty.
The first three are the ones where his behavior before and after the shootings will factor into a verdict of guilty. He did in fact act guilty. You have to admit that.

Was it one that opens to the left?

double door. So, in a way, yes. One of them does.

A trained armed man maybe. But a snowflake with a gas gun, maybe not.

In order to train you need experience.

Just teasing

Exactly. Any cop would say the same thing when asked about straw purchasing a firearm to dodge age restrictions to go into the streets for riot control purposes. Something about cracking a few eggs.

That sounds catch-22

LOL it’s been that way as far as I remember

 

[Fogdog]

Defense means to defend. It doesn’t mean you have to back down or retreat. Again this will set precedents I feel with courts on individuals that defend themselves against aggressors as well as protect property in times of extreme violence

You assume he was acting in self defense. You see, little snowflake, we've been through all the fake bullshit right wing jumping to the defense of their own before. Only a few months ago, twelve jurors unanimously convicted Chauvin and during the trial, right wing trolls like you were making shit up in defense of the rat bastard. This doesn't mean that I think Rittenhouse will be convicted. I'm just explaining why your words carry no weight.

One thing that’s interesting while googling the Rittenhouse name I see tons of merchandise online. Everything from patches, pins, shirts, masks, hats, tumblers, panties LOL. Like multiple companies.

Does this merchandising mean anything good?

If you are the one with the merchandise I suppose. Just interesting is all. I’m fascinated by human nature shit

Hey, I waited two months for those double doors. You take it back.

Seriously, the conniption fits the right are pretending to have over SHORTAGES!, INFLATION!, SKY IS FALLING!!! are a sign of their weakness and fear. They desperately hope the US economy collapses. Given their actions on Jan 6, followed by their obstruction of Congress, one may rightly conclude they are actively trying to make it true.

As someone on ssdi, inflation is a scarier word than werewolf.

 

[mooray]

I can't imagine the stress of depending on a fixed income in this political climate.

 

[UncleBuck]

He had a chance all night to use he weapon but in all the videos I seen he walked away. It wasn’t until he was chased and cornered by the guy that threatened to kill him that he pulled the trigger.

pulled the trigger and shot him in the back

 

[UncleBuck]

Why not? Chasing and cornering an armed man that you threaten to kill earlier is not the path to longevity

how was rittenhouse cornered when he shot rosenbaum in the back? draw me a picture of this along with a running crouch position

 

[Fogdog]

yep. Inflation above 3% for an extended period will wipe out anybody living on a fixed income if it goes on very long and the high prices stick. That's why the right wing troll went to it. I'm not denying that inflation is rising right now. Food prices are going up, along with other products that are in demand. The causes of inflation are temporary and long term outlook is for food prices to snap back once employment and supply chain issues are corrected.

The fed is predicting CPI to drop from 5% in 2021 to 2% in 2022. I'm putting my chest out and saying it right now. The country is going to be back to work with wages that are higher than they were pre-pandemic and healthy economy in 2022, a mid-term election year. No wonder Republicans are dour.

Americans will have to get used to high inflation at least until the end of 2021

Get used to paying more for food, gas, autos and a variety of other goods and services. High U.S. inflation is going to stick around for awhile.

shooting someone in the back in self defense. great concept

Well there was a video that proved what he did. That video evidence will free you or hang you. I think Rittenhouse is damn lucky to have that. As far as the other guy the only defense I heard was that some claimed it was an overdose. I don’t know why he didn’t put him in the car after he quit resisting. There was no need to hold him down like that with his knee. As far as the evidence I didn’t really pay attention either way.
