The difference between a right wing conspiracy and the truth is about 20 months.

Oh. If Jack POSobiec says someone else fired a shot, then I guess Kyle Rittenhouse is off the hook for multiple murders.

Why did a 17 year old have his mommy drive him to Kenosha armed with a huge gun and bullets?

Who told him he was needed in Kenosha?

Listening to the judge here decide to excuse a juror for telling a joke gives me little confidence in this judicial action.

The joke, according to prosecutors, was "Why did the Kenosha police shoot Jacob Blake seven times? Because they ran out of bullets."

The defense initially objected to removing the juror but backed away from that position after the man declined to repeat the joke for the judge. While the juror insisted that his remark had "nothing to do with the case," Schroeder explained he was concerned that "the appearance of bias" on the jury could "seriously undermine the outcome of the case."

"The public needs to be confident in the outcome of this trial," he said. "At the very [least] it was bad judgment to tell that kind of joke."

Of course he should be dismissed. He made a joke mocking Blake's killing. Rittenhouse is on trial for his actions as a militiaman protecting police from people protesting Blake's killing. The joke shows bias.

Clearly!
It was the right decision, but listening to him (the judge) talk his way through it makes him sound like he's mentally past his prime. You'd have to listen to it at the link.

Kyle Rittenhouse didn't shoot until a gun was pointed at him, one of his attackers just admitted in court. Kyle Rittenhouse prosecutor face-palming after putting Antifa on the stand

Let's put that aside for now. Did you see the prosecuting attorney's face palm reaction?

Well, I haven't been following, but that certainly sounds like a big deal!

But, I must say, why are these people cheering? Are they so Pro-Militia ?
Do they want folks to show up in the streets with guns and Duke it out?

Rittenhouse is a damned fool and needs to go to jail!!!

Why do I think an armed black militia showing up in
a similar bat s$it crazy role to protect protestors not police would have been executed not offered water and small talk by the police?

Wow. The prosecutor is trying to impeach the murderer, and the judge saw it was being successful and so he made the jury leave for 15 minutes and then argued with the prosecutor about not being able to tie key points together.

This judge is an A-hole.
The kid is an idiot murderer.

People should not be allowed to roam the streets with guns and then claim "self defense" when they get into a fight with someone and kill them.

Our gun laws are complete BS. F the NRA.

Do I understand that Rittenhouse could not carry a pistol, by law, but he COULD carry and AR15?

Great laws!

I'd rather shoot my wad on screen than shoot 3 other human beings with a loaded gun.

Both are idiotic and embarrassing.
One is deadly, the other somewhat euphoric.

For the sake of my fellow man, I'd rather be Toobin than Rittenhouse.


But, you. You are merely interested in smearing Toobin because he smears Trump.
You're a bad person.

Hey, Bearister... you're a lawyer.... tell me this....

It seems like the case is turning into

"what did Rittenhouse feel RIGHT before pulling the trigger?
was he under threat?
did he fear for his life?
If so, were the shootings justifiable self-defense?"

However, I feel myself viewing it differently -
Isn't Rittenhouse responsible for EVERY ACTION that he took leading up to the shootings?
-Being on the scene after curfew
-Having a gun, loaded
-Parading around the streets and interacting with people

All that is PART is the entire killing sequence, and he is responsible for ALL OF IT.

If I smoke a lifetime of cigarettes, and then die of cancer, it's not the final 3 puffs that are responsible.
If I drive like a maniac down the freeway, and then circumstances turn into a fatal accident, am I not responsible for driving 100 in a 45, even though the other driver did something to contribute to the accident?

I could go on with analogies, but you get my point.

I say this kid is entirely responsible for these deaths. Otherwise, we will devolve into a society where anyone can show up and whomever has the biggest/fastest gun wins, and is justified in their shooting. We gotta stop this gun-violent society, dammit!

The prosecutor is doing what sometimes happens when a case falls apart. He's trying to get Rittenhouse to make a stupid admission, preferably one that relates to an element of a crime. That's why he's asking what R was thinking or feeling at every step of the way.

It was SO stupid to go to a riot with an AR-16. But once he was there this is obvious self defense for each of the 3 shootings. No opinion on the 3 lesser charges.

This kid was a dumba** for walking into that situation armed to the teeth, but I think the chances of a criminal conviction went away once it was confirmed that someone else shot at him first. No matter how biased the judge may be, that one fact pretty much clinches it. Maybe on a lesser charge.

Thx for your guys' adds.

I just can't get over the thought of a 17 year old who plays shoot em up video games ends up roaming the streets because he took some lifeguard job and thinks he's going to be a hero during city chaos.

What a gd fool !!!

If he weren't a fool, those other guys would be alive today. He'd better pay some penance.

The problem with situations like this is that our law is too permissive for use of deadly force. If Rittenhouse didn't have a gun, he wouldn't have needed to defend himself with deadly force but here we are.

Even if the prosecutors had a good case, they pretty much blew it. In particular, I wouldn't be surprised if the judge (who is a bit of kook) declares a mistrial after the prosecutor tried to introduce questions about evidence that the judge had already ruled should be excluded.

I would be very surprised if Kyle doesn't walk.
