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.

Flood the area, especially the courthouse, with jury nullification pamphlets.

ChicagoConservative27 :" Hope Kyle has a great legal team. "

This is a typical case of proprietorial "overcharging", in the hope that something sticks.
That ought to give you some idea of the emotional status there in Kenosha.

He was fleeing from his assailants when they knocked him down to the ground. They beat him and then he shot them.

These are the facts, and they are not in dispute.

Do it near a courthouse and the state's hammer will come down.

Ridiculous. Show the jury the entire video tape of the incident.

I watched it almost in real time on FR.

Self defense. Done.

Kenosha is big-time Lib-Prog county. Many blue collar union and minority.

Prosecutor’s rule - “If we charge him with enough variations on the same thing, we can bully him into a plea.”

Well, if he's NOT acquitted, there needs to be rioting.

How did that Zimmerman thingee go?

The only charge I think might stick is that he was under 17 and had a gun. That’s a misdemeanor.

I hope Kyle gets acquitted and quickly.
But this should be a warning to all of us - defend yourself against the wrong persons and the State will do everything in its power to bankrupt and imprison you.
We need better self defense laws. Maybe national “stand your ground?’

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.
