Kyle Rittenhouse trial & updates [Verdict: NOT GUILTY]

[spudea]

One of the lawyers on the Rekieta law stream theorized that he was trying to trap the defense attorney into objecting and calling him out when he pointed the gun, with the intention of turning it into a controversy where he could make the point to the jury that pointing a gun at somebody makes them fear for their life... and that the defense attorney smartly did not fall for the trap.

I agree it was a trap. And many people online are falling for the "omg he pointed a gun, punish him!" When that's exactly what Binger wants to do to Kyle, saying simply pointing a gun forfeits all self defense claim. Binger is a lying sleazeball, but he is pretty smart, we give him shit but it's mostly due to the disastrous losing case he is being forced litigate.

Riot? Whose businesses, whose dumpsters should the right burn? Whose neighborhoods should the right burn?

Who would be the target? "We" believe in personal property rights and wouldn't consider randomly burning businesses to the ground.

What is the purpose of rioting?

Just to let off some steam?

If you're going to resort to violence, at least have a goal and a clear sense of how the violence you're committing advances towards that goal.

Rioting serves no purpose to the honest, constructive and conservatives. They don’t want destruction.

To the left it serves two purposes. For the rioters, it serves as venting and free stuff. For the left establishment, it provides “proof” that they need more votes and more power to stop it from happening again. Obviously they are lying. They want more rioting and destruction so that they can get more power. The race baiters and SJC warriors also believe they get more power via the riots. Then there are those who just want destruction because they have been brainwashed by power seeking charlatans. They are useful idiots.

Protests, on the other hand, are a viable political exercise, as long as those protesting are smart enough to identify and shun agent provocateurs.

A 'proper' response to any verdict besides acquittal is 2 to 1 AR's at every "peaceful protest" regardless of the DA's opinions or LEO's barked instructions.

Come to think of it that's the proper response to all forms of tyranny and antisocial behavior.

Kops and kourts only serve to punish AFTER something happens............Sometimes.

A well regulated militia could/should and would serve to keep the kops-n-kourts from having to get involved.

The system that permitted riots is permitting this trial, this system doesn't represent me!

Also, the Marxist protestors hate the private business and property owners (as well as private gun owners) more than they hate the cops and politicians.

Bingo! Winner, winner, chicken dinner. With gravy on the side.

That is exactly the "protest" that is called for. Lines of armed individuals guarding personal property. In overwhelming numbers. Using everything considered "non-lethal" when shit gets out of hand and backing it with the threat of lethal force if it continues.
Already BLM/Antifa are outside the Kenosha courthouse threatening riots if Rittenhouse isn't convicted. If the police aren't going to quell this shit then it falls upon citizens like Kyle to take matters into their own hands.

Let them burn down their own neighborhoods and cities. Fuck it, who cares.

You should. BLM/Antifa are not organic to a local community. There are agitators that travel to locations to incite. Not a single business owner in Kenosha wanted their property destroyed. And a community should come together to protect their own.

Actually, it was 14 year olds who were part of the local militias.

Doesn't represent me in the slightest.

Hey, what was the deal with the prosecutors claiming that "Kyle pointed the gun at the man in the yellow pants?" The defense attorneys looked pissed at him and the judge acted like Binger was making stuff up. I have been looking for an explanation but it just goes back to the judge admonishing the prostitutor.

I just thought this needed to be emphasized ... over and over again.

Bullshit as far as I can tell. I don't remember specific testimony to this affect, although I've seen a lot I haven't seen it all. I think it comes down to the prosecutions use of an "enhanced photo" that showed Kyle pointing the gun at someone with the weapon left sided rather than the right. The defense claims it was a car mirror as Kyle is right handed.

Another day of deliberation.

 

[A Son of Liberty]

Should have been a 15 minute deliberation. One minute to make the decision and 14 minutes to have coffee and donuts before returning to the court room.

This is probably not good.
