Rittenhouse Trial

Netsua 3:16

AND THAT’S THE BOTTOM LINE
By using the word "hired" would denote a contract between 2 or more parties for the exchange of goods and/or services.
I never heard any evidence to suggest this.
All I heard was someone asking for volunteers to help protect one of their businesses.
Something that the local hacks were ordering the local police not to do.

The weapon carried was not a "weapon of war" , but a common hunting rifle.

Just because the media wants to promote fear is this legal hunting rifle now considered a bad and evil thing.

No soldier would go into battle with this weak weapon and expect to survive.

Nobody here sees the issue with a 17 year old walking around in a protest playing Call of Duty with a war weapon.
Getting hired to guard a business. A business. Hired a 17 year old kid with a war weapon. To guard a business.
These people are parents themselves.
Sad. And scary
He was of legal age to do what he did.
It was not a protest it was a destructive riot.
WTF makes an AR15 a “war weapon”?

Again. This isn’t red dawn. We don’t want 17 year olds roaming the streets with AR-15’s
You want 17 year olds walking around the streets with AR-15’s? Why? Shouldn’t they be in bed getting ready to do something to better themselves the next day? Shouldn’t they be off acting like a :censored2: kid?
How is this ok with any of you?

Kyle Rittenhouse’s $2 million legal funds won his case. Most defendants can’t afford that quality of aid.​

Rittenhouse’s $2 million legal defense funds enabled his lawyers, before his trial, to stage separate “practice” jury trials — one in which 18-year-old Rittenhouse took the stand and one in which he did not. The more favorable reaction from the pretend jurors when Rittenhouse testified informed the decision to let the teenager tell his story to the real jurors. His apparently well-rehearsed testimony was probably the most important factor in the jury ultimately letting Rittenhouse walk.

What’s your obsession with Red Dawn? It has absolutely no bearing on the topic. Nor does his age. He was legal in every aspect. Nor does the AR15. It was legal. And, was obviously needed, to defend against the loser thugs you daffy liberals love to support.

How come when there is a shooting in Chicago, the AR is never mentioned ?

What is the obsession by the right-wing with Chicago? It ranks 28th in murder per 100,000 residence.

Oh, wait I know; they saw it on right-wing-nut TV so it must be true it's the worse place in the US and the black and brown people that live there are all criminals.

The most important factor in the jury ultimately letting Rittenhouse walk was that the law and the facts were on his side.

Putting Rittenhouse on the stand was insanely risky for the defense. Most people, let alone an 18 year-old, are susceptible to the tricks of an experienced prosecutor that are designed to make the defendant look bad to the jury. For instance, provoking an angry outburst, causing nervousness, carefully wording a question to confuse the defendant, wearing a defendant down to the point that he'll unknowingly incriminate himself, etc. Yet the prosecution did so to no avail.

It's a shame the local and state governments abrogated their responsibilities in the name of politics and compelled those who would protect their communities to have to take such steps. Put the blame where it belongs, violent rioters and those who let them get away with it, endangering innocent members of the community.

Looks to me like our government thinks a little differently about 17 yr olds than you do.

I was shocked that they put him on. But pleasantly surprised at his poise. The kid is no dummy.

We don’t want riots, either.

You brought this on yourselves.

Should he have been convicted of murder because he was there? Do the actions of grown men attacking him have no bearing on why they are dead or wounded? I've seen video of a man beaten severely, possibly killed, in the 2020 riot in Dallas. He didn't have a weapon. His crime? Trying to stop looting of his business. I'm not thrilled with the idea of a 17 year old being down there in all that mess. But he was and thank God he was armed or most likely he would've been the one killed for the horrible crime of extinguishing a fire.
