OMG! How many times can they put the word "black" into a "news" article about a case that didn't involve black people? They even capitalized "black" when it was used as an adjective instead of a proper noun!

Dominick Black

"...that followed the police-involved shooting of Jacob Blake, a 29-year-old Black man. Black added..."

So the prosecution’s first witness testified that Rittenhouse carried the rifle because he thought it would prevent confrontations, shot rioters who were attacking him in self defense, and was anguished at shooting someone. This helps the prosecution’s first degree murder case how exactly?

Just look at him in the video, in the immediate aftermath. He looks dazed as he walks away.

His life is going to be Hell for the next 5-10 years.

Can’t be any worse than it is right now being wrongfully prosecuted for defending himself. If anything, he’ll be a Senator. He’ll be known as the 21st century “Man who shot Liberty Valance!”

The judge strongly admonished the prosecution for trying to introduce a video narrated by someone who is not testifying, not under oath, in an attempt to, "show the defendants state of mind."

The judge was red-hot angry at the prosecution's attempt to introduce hearsay with inflammatory descriptions including "militia." In his 38 years on the bench, the judge has never seen anything like it, he said.

This kid is innocent because of self defense, but with that being said, what the hell was he doing there? 17 years old, he had no business there.

Rittenhouse was pale and "really scared" after he fired shots

I'm sure he was really scared before he fired the shots. That's why he had to shoot. He was afraid for his life. Is this a defense witness already? Sure sounds like it.

“This was a PROSECUTION witness. “

he would HAVE to be: prosecution puts on case first, gets to call their witnesses and there’s no way the prosecution’s case could be over already ...

I don’t know. I really don’t want to watch too hard mainly because I want to see Kyle walk. I haven’t followed the case. The media is dumping on Rittenhouse harder than Sandman. No comparison except Rittehouse doesn’t fir the George Floyd mold.

Of course he freaked out. Shooting incidents are spike moments and he’s dealing with a quart of adrenaline flowing through his system.

I don’t know if Rittenhouse was “freaking out,” but I’ve been in situations where you were coming off an adrenaline rush afterwards, and needed some space.

It gets even way better than that.

He shot the pedo in the dick, and in the head.

He shot the wife-strangler in the lungs.

He shot the burglar in the arm. His gun-arm. Dis-armed him. Bye-ceps.

God was truly with Kyle that night.
