Joyce Vance, an MSNBC legal analyst, and former Obama appointee as a US Attorney, was palpably peeved by the acquittal of Kyle Rittenhouse. Commenting on it on MTP Daily today, Vance offered an absurd analogy.

She said:

"This strikes me as an odd situation for self-defense. It's something akin to saying that if you go in a bank and rob it and people are trying to apprehend you, you can shoot your way out and claim self-defense. That's a little bit what Kyle Rittenhouse did. He created this problem, and then proceeded to threaten people to get out. Typically you can't claim self-defense in a situation where you've provoked the incident."

I hope this is the turning point to where millions and millions of salt-of-the-earth people start pushing back very hard on all the lies and insanity. MSNBC deserves to bite the dust.

Joyce Vance, MSNBC legal analyst, proof stupidity is an incurable disease.

JOYCE, you ignorant slut.....

spot on, except a bank robber has clearly intended to commit a felony, and should be attacked/apprehended.

You’ve set up a typically weak strawman argument by chaning the paramaters.

So, STFU....you and your cutesy pendants

Tall dark and stupid.

[BOBWADE]

I vaguely remember something about provocation and not guilty?

Keep digging biotches. Hope he sues every one of you POSes.

And I’m guessing that she believes in the “just lay back and enjoy it” school of folks say women should take when being raped.

True: a def improvement over her look when she first started her MSNBC gig. And someone told her to occasionally smile.

” ... because, at the end of the day, going to clean up graffiti and put out dumpster fires after a town has been torn up by riots and robbing a bank are really morally equivalent actions.”
