Rittenhouse jury just went to deliberate

[AZrailwhale]

Imagine if all took the law into their own hands, it would be the wild west again.

Criminals tended to have short and exciting lives in the Wild West.

 

[AZrailwhale]

Everybody had the right to take down an active shooter, and he was.

Not by any reasonable definition of the word.

 

[AZrailwhale]

The defense attorney dragged the closing arguments out over 2 hours, and put the jury to sleep , which may have hurt Kyle's case a little toward the end, but I think the jury will sleep on it one night and tomorrow morning find him not guilty.

If and when he's acquitted, I wonder how the media will react -- will they just put it to bed or try to fuel more unrest ?

I thought the defense did a great job. He went through the entire incident issue by issue and demolished the prosecution’s case. He even pointed out how the prosecution altered the video evidence to make Rittenhouse look guilty.

I haven't gone back and watched all of it, but at least he did much better than the courtroom rifle-pointing prosecutor.

Great idea.

shopkeepers shooting looters, arsonists and horse, and cattle, (car) thieves hung from the nearest tree.

Robbers shot by an armed citizenry before they can get out of town.

Could be what America, (the world), needs.

 

[Esdraelon]

I never cared about this kid one way or another. Was he defending himself? Yes. Should he have been there in the first place? No.

The same can be said of all those who were taking part in an illegal assembly, looting, and arson. Bottom line is that everyone who took a round did so while attacking Rittenhouse. He sought NO ONE OUT. THEY came at him.

 

[AZrailwhale]

If Baby Kyle hadn't been there with his "cool gun" two guys would be alive and another would still have his bicep.

And if the three guys hadn’t attacked Rittenhouse, NO ONE would have been shot or killed. Rittenhouse was defensive and was attempting to retreat in the case of every attack. Hell he was knocked to the ground by a rock to the head before the last two shootings.

 

[AZrailwhale]

A hung jury wouldn't surprise me. They can re-try the case with a decent prosecutor and a judge who isn't a right wing, self promoting dick next time around.

If the DA gets a mistrial, he will thank god and quietly drop the case. A mistrial is the only thing that might protect him from a wrongful prosecution lawsuit. A mistrial would be a gross miscarriage of justice. There is no evidence at all of anything except self defense.

 

[AZrailwhale]

I'll wait to see how this plays out.

It’s pretty self-evident. Rittenhouse didn’t fire wildly into the crowd, he only shot at people who directly attacked him, or threatened his life.

 

[Turtlesoup]

Not Guilty, Kyle "The Vaporizer" Rittenhouse is an American Hero

Love your positive Thinking...

 

[Turtlesoup]

Imagine if all took the law into their own hands, it would be the wild west again.

IF people didn't take the law into their own hands, criminals would have continued to murder, rape, loot and the Wild WEST would have never be WON.

The Government has failed and is getting worse.

I had to give up watching the prosecutor’s closing. He was jumping around and most of his points made no sense to me.

 

[WEATHER53]

Wyatt Earp was right

It’s pretty self-evident. Rittenhouse didn’t fire wildly into the crowd, he only shot at people who directly attacked him, or threatened his life.

What does failing to “fire wildly” have to do with anything?

Seriously, I don’t know how supposed law and order type conservatives can condone his conduct. We should discourage this kind of stuff.

He is completely incompetent. He was unprepared to prosecute his case. I think he prepared by listening to media reports

EXCLUSIVE: Prosecutors in Kenosha shooter trial WITHHELD high-definition video evidence from the defense that was 'at the center of their case' and initially shared a lower quality version of drone footage from the night of Kyle Rittenhouse shooting​

Prosecutors in Kenosha shooter trial WITHHELD evidence from defense

Prosecutors in the Kenosha shooter trial withheld evidence from the defense that was 'at the center of their case,' DailyMail.com reveal.

• Assistant District Attorney Thomas Binger initially shared low quality drone footage from the night of the shooting with the defense
• The defense claims Binger only shared the high-definition footage after evidence had closed on Saturday
• According to a motion filed today by the defense, 'The problem is the prosecution gave the defense a compressed version of the video'
• 'What that means is the video provided to the defense was not as clear as the video kept by the state,' the motion states
• Lawyers for Rittenhouse filed their motion for mistrial with prejudice based on this and several other grounds

In the motion obtained by DailyMail.com, Rittenhouse's defense insist that the state only shared it with the defense after evidence had closed on Saturday November 13.
~Snip~
'The video footage has been at the center of this case. The idea that the state would provide lesser quality footage and then use that footage as a linchpin in their case is the very reason they requested and were granted the provocation instruction by the Court.'


Comment:
Binger was playing games from day one to provoke Hedge Schroeder into having no choice but declare a mistrial with prejudice. The biased MSM, PM/DSA Democrat politicians and Leftists in general have branded Schroeder as everything from. "biased" to actually suggesting he is a is. member of The Klan. Imagine their reaction when judge Schroeder declares the mistrial with prejudice.
If these PM/DSA Democrat Leftists are prepared to fix a murder trial, they're prepared to fix Presidential Elections.

 

[struth]

Its not his job to go help. Sounds to me like a bad kid looking for a time and place to murder people

yeah i mean geez why should anyone go help people…helping people just means you are a bad person

it’s really not the job of a group of people to loot, riot, assault and fire bomb…sounds to me that group of demafascist were looking to murder people…and they tried…

The Kyle Rittenhouse trial raises some interesting observations. Rittenhouse was seventeen when he decided to intervene in a riot that was burning the small town where his father lived less than 20 miles from where he and his mother made their home. As a seventeen-year-old, it was a poor decision, and it probably would have better if he had just avoided the mayhem and stayed home. There were calls on social media for people to protect the homes and businesses under attack and Rittenhouse responded.

Unfortunately, Rittenhouse answered the call with a Smith & Wesson M&P 15, an AR-15-like rifle he legally owned despite false press reports echoing the prosecution saying the gun was illegally in his possession. For some reason no one in media bothered to check Wisconsin laws on firearms that made Rittenhouse’s gun legal for a seventeen-year-old instead just taking the word of the prosecution that was lying.

The judge threw out the charge of illegal possession of a firearm early on in what turned out to be a slew of criticism aimed at prosecutorial sloppiness and outright incompetence. It became evident as soon as video evidence was shown that the prosecution’s case was built on a house of cards, and it started falling apart almost immediately. The video clearly showed that Rittenhouse was being pursued by a mob and that he acted in self-defense.

At this writing the jury is still out likely because lynch mob influence is seen by the jury as a threat to them and their families. Incredibly, national press coverage was so poor that up until the trial started most African Americans thought Rittenhouse had used his rifle to shoot three blacks especially after Joe Biden had publicly accused the teenager of being a white supremacist. The lone black member of the jury is no doubt under tremendous pressure to vote guilty and ignore the obvious evidence that Rittenhouse discharged the rifle to save his life from imminent attacks of rioters that were out of control and out for blood.

Rittenhouse stuck his neck out when the rest of us just stood back and hoped Washington would come to its senses and put a stop to the destruction of communities under the banner of a concocted Black Lives Matter movement when no one in the country was saying black lives do not matter. Maybe Rittenhouse's actions were dumb or maybe they were what was needed.

 

[maybelooking]

Why did he go to this protest with a gun? What a psycho. And a crazy mom for driving him

It was OBVIOUSLY necessary to have one. If not, he would have been beaten to death.

 

[Correll]

1. The fact that this trail was not moved, AND the jury sequestered, was ******* retarded.

2. The judge needs to declare a mistrial with prejudice immediately.

3. Rittenhouse's actions were laudable. That he has been charged is a shame on our society.
