lannarebirth Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 (edited) Everyone remembers the media's loud, inflammatory accusations. No one seems to remember their weeks or months later quiet retractions. And that's just the way they like it.

If you assume that it was the job of the police to maintain law and order then that disqualifies Rittenhouse motive for even going there. There is no doubt that at the very least he was a vigilante. Hmmm....wonder what would have happened if it was a black man running towards the police with an AR15 after shooting 3 people? Right.... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lannarebirth Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 No dog in this fight. I don't like cops, punk Rambo wannabes, or SJWs using manufactured neoracism as a pretext for rioting. I am very concerned about the fall of America's democracy however and the media dissembling that is facilitating it. I expect the jury will come to the appropriate conclusions. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rittenhouse brought an AR15 and repeatedly pointed it at demonstrators. Did any of the demonstrators have a semi automatic rifle with them? Rittenhouse knew the first person he shot was unarmed. He also shot him in the back after he was wounded. Edited November 17, 2021 by ozimoron 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two crouched on the roof of a building, sniper style. Two or three others stood guard over the lot. One of them, a babyface with a backward ball cap, raised an assault rifle and pointed it at him. Jeremiah, 24 and Black, was more annoyed than afraid. He'd been out protesting all summer, more than 90 days so far. He knew about these guys and their scare tactics, and he refused to be intimidated. When the kid started yelling, Jeremiah shouted back: "I'm trying to get out of here. If you're gonna shoot me, just shoot!" A few minutes later, Jeremiah saw the same guy pointing his weapon at someone else. This time, Kyle Rittenhouse fired.

dundas Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 The accused is white. The judge is white. Only one member of the jury is black. Now reverse the colour of the accused: he is black; the judge is still white; only one member of the jury is black. In each case, it's going to be a black and white decision. One person will get off scot free, or near enough (extenuating circumstances etc etc), and the other person will be incarcerated, or worse. It's hard not to be cynical. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffr2 Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 https://www.wpr.org/lawsuit-alleges-police-assisted-rittenhouse-armed-militia-kenosha Lawsuit alleges police assisted Rittenhouse, armed militia in Kenosha According to the lawsuit, at approximately 11:30 p.m. — about 15 minutes before Rittenhouse shot Rosenbaum, Huber and Grosskreutz — law enforcement officers were talking to Rittenhouse and other armed individuals in the parking lot of a private business. "Despite the fact that the armed individuals were in violation of the curfew order, the officers and deputies communicated their full support and appreciation for Rittenhouse and others," the lawsuit says. "In video footage taken at the scene, officers can even be heard asking armed individuals if they needed water and other supplies. Rittenhouse can be seen telling the officers that they did need water, which officers gave them." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
