Breitbart ^ | 12/04/2020 | Awr Hawkins

Posted on 12/04/2020 9:53:52 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

A judge ruled Thursday that 17-year-old Kyle Rittenhouse will stand trial on six counts tied to events that occurred in Kenosha, Wisconsin, August 25, 2020.

Rittenhouse was charged with first-degree intentional homicide, first-degree reckless homicide, and attempted first-degree intentional homicide following the August 25th deaths of Anthony Huber and Joseph Rosenbaum in Kenosha, Wisconsin, during riots sparked by the police-involved shooting of Jacob Blake. Rittenhouse allegedly shot three people, two of whom succumbed to their wounds.

This is the type of case where one would hope there are jurors who sit politely and simply vote Not Guilty, and never changes that.

Imagine the rioting on the day of his acquittal......

No Black Lives were harmed in Kyle's exercise of his Right to Self Defense.

Therefore, no riots.

Ikeon :" There must be more to this case than meets the eye.
Time to step back and figure out whos wagging the dog"

Agreed !
There must be some reason Kenosha wants to support BLM arsons (plural) and riots.
Probably based on fear of re-occurrence.

I don’t see where in the Constitution that 17 year olds and younger must die. Self defense is God given and no limits can sentence anyone to death.

This is all about average folks defending themselves when leftists are rioting in the city and the police are no where to be found because they are told to stand down or are defunded.

Apparently average folks have to bear the brunt of the failures of government and there are no apologies from the people responsible. Average folks just have to deal with it and suffer. Unbelievable.

Those shot and killed were all prior felons, who were affiliated with AntiFa, and not BLM.
The AntiFa "medic", himself, was a felon who was ineligible to carry a firearm, ..but no criminal charges posted (?).
No criminal charges at all, neither state, or Federal ! Go figure !

“Do it near a courthouse and the state’s hammer will come down.”

Then send in the US marshals to arrest all the state’s gestapo. The USSC has ruled in favor of jury nullification.

I was on Jury duty twice in the 80’s. Both times, when the trial was over and we were sent into our room to deliberate, I told the jury about jury nullification.

FIJA! Fully Informed Jury Act! Haven't thought about that since I danced around jury nullification without specifically stating it, and the judge got the hint and dismissed me from jury duty (prison tats meth case).

I’m not saying the law is constitutional. I’m just saying it’s the only one that comes to mind, based on the evidence at hand, that he could be prosecuted for. And it’s really just a traffic ticket. And breaking that law saved his life.

If he hadn’t had that gun and used it, he’d be dead.

Now some may say that having the weapon in plain sight is
what set people off, but they were the problem, not him.

He was not acting out, threatening people.

When the trouble started he defended himself.

That’s what a gun is for.

This judge was probably raised a sheltered child, never
has held a gun, never has been in fear for his life.

This was Self-defense 101. This judge failed.

It’s also punishment by bankruptcy.

He’ll have to hire top notch attorneys, and that will cost
a fortune.

Now, he is going to get funding help, but the judge is
playing into the game of making this as tough as he can on
Kyle, so the next Conservative will just agrees to die on the
spot.

Great idea. My wife just got called up for jury duty and was pretty depressed about it. I’ll remind her.

DoughtyOne :" It’s also punishment by bankruptcy.

Justice against oppression always results in bankruptcy.
See Michael Flynn for information, that is, even if you can get reliable representation by a lawyer.
Notice the close spelling between lawyer, and synonym,.. liar
There is a reason why the slang term for lawyer is : " shyster" (Germanic origination).
