A miscarriage of justice in Kenosha (Barf Alert)
U. S. News via MSN ^ | Nov. 19, 2021 | James D. Zirin

The unimaginable has occurred. Kyle Rittenhouse, the admitted killer of two men and maimer of a third, has been acquitted on all counts.

On Aug. 25, 2020, Rittenhouse armed himself with a borrowed AR-15-style assault rifle loaded with full metal jacket armor-penetrating ammunition and marched into downtown Kenosha, Wis., during a third night of protests following the police shooting of Jacob Blake, a 29-year-old Black man. Blake was left partly paralyzed after a white police officer shot him seven times in the back outside an apartment complex in Kenosha two days before.

“And a biased, unhinged, liberal buffoon.”

Worse than that. Fascist totalitarian commie to the core.

He knows every word in this are lies and propaganda.

You make them up in your mind; just like the stupid “journalists”.

Did you see the chainsaw bayonet on Rittenhouse's fully-automatic Assault AK-15? You can only see it in the high-definition video that the prosecution withheld.

FMJ is not armor piercing. He got to the first lie in the very first line.
The defense team let the prosecution get away with murder WRT to FMJ. The prosecution made much of the fact that FMJ is a military round, which is true - but not the truth. The truth is that the military uses FMJ because it complies with the Geneva Convention and is therefore less, rather than more, destructive to human tissue than, say, a hunting round.

But you knew that.

Not true, at least not 10 years ago. Anyone can buy FMJ

Perhaps, but the url is: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/crime/a-miscarriage-of-justice-in-kenosha/ar-AAQUUvv?ocid=msnews

I view anything from msn.com as pure AI generated propaganda.

Leftists want us punished or dead. They will use any method...government, crime, threats, harassment and plenty of other techniques.

See and heed my tagline.

The report I had read previously referred to the gun as “Kyle’s” which he stored in a friends safe.

Same lying lawyer who wrote this vapid screed also wrote Plaintiff in Chief: Portrait of Donald Trump in 3,500 Lawsuits, another worthless pack of lies.

You are absolutely correct...

‘FMJ bullets have a jacket made of “gilding metal”, which is a relatively soft brass alloy. So no, generally FMJ bullets are not considered “armor piercing”.’

Cabelas used to sell FMJ-armor piercing ammo in calibers 105 mm and 155 mm for borrowed AK15 assault rifles. When Bass Pro bought them out they realized the ammo would be used only by white supremacists to shoot innocent black pedophiles and wife beaters. So they stopped it. It can be had though on the white market.

Leftists (i.e. anyone who votes for the democrat taliban party) demand the use of government to control, hurt, tax, imprison or even murder us. We can no longer pretend that a vote for a democrat is harmless or renders the voter to not be responible for the carnage caused by democrats.

AND, to the surprise of the twit reporter, THAT’S LEGAL.

He isn't a reporter. He's a former federal prosecutor in the Southern District of New York. He knows very well he is lying through his teeth for a political agenda.

After all, that's the job of federal prosecutors in the Southern District of New York.

Actually there were TWO lies...
‘On Aug. 25, 2020, Rittenhouse armed himself with a BORROWED AR-15-style ASSAULT RIFLE....’

It is not an assault rifle.
