Being out after curfew was provocation?

Perhaps. But the point is that Superbad says, in so many words, that an all-black jury would not convict on skin color whereas an all-white jury would. He has already decided that the white jury is racist.

You just said that an all-white jury is guaranteed to convict the black guy. You can't have it both ways.

Rittenhouse is 5' 8" and Rosenbaum was 5' 3". They are both considered to be short and the difference is only five inches. Hardly "half his size". The "crowd of bystanders" pulled a gun on him (Grosskreutz) and tried to stomp his head into the asphalt, among other things. Oh the irony.

The matter of his possession of the weapon or how he got it was not pertinent to the charge of murder. The gun was obtained legally and it was legal to open carry.

Which you have as much as said this jury will be racist and convict on skin color. Do I have that right?

And white juries find whites guilty every day. So?

And if the jury was all black, would it still be obvious to Stevie?

Should we be concerned about the look or about the objectivity of the jurors? You seem to to be more concerned with optics than justice. What's more, you seem to to be assuming all the white jurors are racist, sight unseen, before the trial even begins. One tried to take his gun from him and...

The irony is, Democrats, liberals and leftists swear up and down that most of the violence is on the right. Once, maybe. But the left is definitely committing more violence today.

I myself am very vocal about the fact that the words "racist" and "racism" have no meaning anymore. I shared an article on here months ago about what the author called the "Purity Spiral". It's a phenomenon that happens in a culture like we're experiencing now where a moral idea takes hold...

Exactly. The fear of being labeled racist is out of control and sometimes even fatal as we saw in London recently.

The question that immediately comes to my mind is: What is it with Somalis and daycare centers? Maybe I'm just not getting the bigger picture but it seems daycare centers are a typical Somali business venture. If this is true, why?

I didn't suggest you needed to be angry, I simply asked if you were. And the only reason I mentioned that I was angry was to make a distinction between a feeling and a lack of feeling, i.e., being not surprised vis-vis being angry. I don't give a shit if you think it's a conspiracy. That tells...

Unsurprised is not a feeling, dumbass, it's a lack of a particular feeling or emotion. Just as "not angry" is not a feeling or "not scared" is not a feeling. You say you were not surprised but neither was I surprised. What I did feel though was anger. So I'm asking what you DID feel, if you...
