Courts can go either way. Juries I have more faith in.
I also hope and pray that some fantastic defense teams are assembling to defend this boy.
Good example of that.
Bttt
May or may not come out. We obviously don't know the facts well, but he was in possession of the firearm illegally. He inserted himself in a dangerous situation, apparently with no connection to the store owner he may have been defending. Apparently, per another poster, he confronted the a man breaking a car window and fired a warning shot in the air. If the prosecutor can establish he provoked the initial confrontation and subsequent chase, self defense goes out the window. The incidents I've seen on the tapes clearly look to be self defense, but if he was part of provoking the incident, it won't matter at trial. Big problem. Hopefully he'll be able to plead to something not too life damaging. Hopefully he doesn't post anything over the top on social media. The parents, don't know where but the victim's lawyers will find them for the civil suit. And maybe law enforcement in IL, depends on whether the kid had an FOID, if not he possessed the rifle illegally in two states. And someone owns the rifle, a 17 year old can't purchase one.
FYI, Obama invited BLM into the White House promoting the Communist Community Organization.
I don't disagree. Other than perhaps just how the lawyers will sort it out. I don't think he'll walk away unless, as some have done, the prosecutor sticks with only a single high charge.
So where is the rifle now?
you’re just pissed that a few of your homeys were killed...and by a 17 yo no less.
Bush league comment. Where were you last night? If you were not in Kenosha, then you have no business making the comment you did.
At this point the kid came running back, chased by a “protester”, and shot the person that had been chasing him in the head.
Being chased and having a Molotov cocktail thrown at you doesn’t seem as life threatening, although that’s kind of a relative judgment. Under more normal circumstances being chased with a Molotov cocktail would surely justify self defense.
I agree 100%. No sympathy for the victims.
No. that’s no him
All fueled by drugs, like Floyd.
unknown now perhaps you can spot that if you watch the 5 hour YT vid.
Given the chunk of meat blown out of the pistol wielding assailant's bicep later on, I'm pretty sure that if he had shot the first guy in the head with his rifle it would have made a more immediately fatal injury. Can't say about the caliber.
I find it amusing. You guys are the first ones to point out when the libs are reacting based on their feelings and not facts.
And yet, here you are, walking around with a war woody over this child playing Call of Duty in the streets.
You are such an armchair warrior.
Call me when you take to the streets. Which means, I will never hear from you. You are the worst kind of persontrying to incite people. Yet, you stay safe in your basement.
Stop cheering the fact that kids are fighting your battles.
I want to know where this kid’s team was during all this.
What was the plan?
