1. Plenty of times a court has overturned a law when a case shows it violates the constitution.
How does the law violate the Constitution?
IN this case, because of this stupid law, there is a real chance that a man might spend his life in prison for defending himself. Sounds like a good time to get rid of a bad law.
Indeed he may.
That would be because he broke an existing law.
That's like saying someone who went to prison for trafficking marijuana in 2000 should be released no because weed is legal in Colorado.
Yours a stupid way of reasoning. If a law needs to be changed, by all means, change it. But that doesn't mean those who break it before it's changed get a pass...
2. Yes. It is ok, to consider what kind of man Rosenbaum was, when trying to judge who most likely was the one to initiate teh violence.
We've covered this.
I believe the one more like to initiate violence was the one who illegally obtained a firearm, crossed states lines and, while violating a curfew, killed someone...
3. If the cops watch all those other people and give them a pass for some reason, but just target you specifically, that is unjust. It is beyond the pale to penalize Rittenhouse for violating curfew when the mob was allowed to roam the streets unchecked.
It may be beyond the pale, but it's technically correct. And, seeing as the guy's up on murder charges, you can bet your last nickel the prosecution will include that in their case...
4. SO you claim. At worst, it is a minor infraction of a stupid law, and should not result in life in prison.
I don't see it as a minor infraction. I'm a strong supporter of the 2nd Amendment, and when someone breaks the law to obtain a firearm and then uses that gun illegally, it gives more fuel to the anti-gun lobby, and that's bad. Rittenhouse having a gun that night does a great disservice to law abiding gun owners all over this country...
5. His stated intent was to give first aid to people that needed it, and it seems he was doing that. His intent was not, as many have claimed, to go there and kill liberals or kick liberal ass. I don't care how good he was at it, the point is, his intent was not murder.
Who did he render aid to? We've heard a lot about him murdering people but, I'll be honest here, I haven't seen anyone come forward claiming that Rittenhouse patched them up...
