AND Steve Bannon!

WTF, I support LGBTQ now!? (Specifically, “Let’s Get Biden To Quit”)

F DOJ!!

It appears the Law and Crime stream has been cut for copyright violations.

Good grief. So many are streaming off those who are streaming. smh

Robert Barnes said he would joining the Rekieta Law stream today. Barnes was Rittenhouse’s attorney until a week before the trial.

The judge seems to be in a good mood this morning.

Dayum. They just cut Rekieta Law’s stream for copyright violations!

Edit – Rekieta Law is back up, then back down. Schizophrenic Big Data police today.

Putzs, all of them.

Unreal. Stream suspended for policy violations ?

it’s back up

I hope Kyle’s lawyers have someone reading and scanning the net for valid points they need to use, not just from these blokes, but everyone that is observing and watching.

I am hoping this becomes the demise of Obama’s BLM shock troops.

Presumably, the next round of riots will be centered around this very courthouse, which contains Kyle, his AR-15 and about 20 rounds of FMJ (not sure how many the lab expended for testing), plus a large number of useless adults.

So you condone violence ,when something does not go your way,

“An acquittal, and the cities will burn.”

lol…..it’s raining like bejebers around the seattle area and producing record floods.

No snowflakes with matches in the streets for now.

I love Ma Nature’s naturally cosmic sense of humor, don’t you?

This is not necessarily so. It is not a foregone conclusion that there will be riots.

The prosecution (persecution?) never had a winnable case against Kyle and they knew it.

Judging by their thinly veiled pretense of being inept and their deliberate unconstitutional antics that also violated the court’s order on witness silence is suspicious. That and the media’s constant but false claim that this trial somehow had racial overtones seem to be a deliberate attempt to give Antifa and BLM an excuse to riot.

I still don’t understand why they would burn down cities because 3 white lowlifes invaded their (BLM) “mostly peaceful” demonstration and tried to kill another white man and the attacked white man defended himself.

Cities won’t burn if law enforcement does their job.

I doubt most people are paying attention to it. Also, he shot some white guys who were criminals. It’s not like Antifa/BLM are crying mad tears over them.

They will not burn if they know they are breaking into the graveyard. At some point, it’s the fault of those in power. If a kid keeps throwing a fit, and there are no consequences, but are instead rewarded by their parents, who’s ultimately responsible? Peaceful protest is fine. The first person burning, looting or assaulting, should face immediate lethal force. I promise you the shit will come to a grinding halt!

Let them burn, this is a show trial for our right to defend ourselves.

So am I. Branca does a good job of posting and explaining. Gun charge was dropped and the defense got some wins on instruction.

I don’t know if I’ll watching Binger’s closing. He’s such an annoying pr!ck, but it still might be interesting to see how he’s coming across. He asked for 2 1/2 hours for his closing, an unusually long amount. He could lose the jury just by being tedious.

Defense gets 2 1/2 hours, too, but I think they’d be wise not to use it all if they can make all their points, and punch holes in prosecution in less.

Link?

Bill Ackman. He’s been a bloomberg supporter and all around leftie, but a decent guy none the less.

He watched the TeeVee and got the idea Kyle was a guilty raciss.

Then he watched the actual trial and got a massive dose of Red Pill.

Standing ovation for Judge Schroeder.

Dismissing the gun possession charge is a big plus for the defense. The prosecution cannot use it as a stepping stone to the homicides! The prosecution would have u as used the gun charge to strip away self-defense!

link?

I view the gun charge as a placeholder for the lack of evidence while they fabricated the provocation theory and gross misintepretation of the (long hidden) drone shots of how Rittenhouse was supposedly holding the AR lefthanded, barrel up (“threat”), instead of right handed and barrel down (safe).

ADA Binger undermines rule of law because the lesson is DA’s can’t be trusted at all.

I think he didn’t want to give the jury “an out” where they could acquit him on the severe charges, but throw in the weapons charge to say they did something.

I have sat on a jury that took about 15 minutes to find not guilty. much lesser charges, but still criminal. For some reason they let the prosecutor talk to us afterwards. I reamed him for bringing charges in the first place. Only reason was plaintiff knew someone in the police dept. I was furious with prosecutor.

Amen

Maybe the local Neighborhood Man can help out with that?

Needs to do something about that Pee Wee hair.

Xactly.

I think it’s a borderline issue, and the judge thought it better to let the jury decide. Defense did get an instruction that jury cannot speculate on what is happening in the fuzzy, enlarged-with-more-pixels, video.

According to Branca at Legal Insurrection, the judge told the jury the closings should be done by 4 pm. Did they want to start deliberations at that hour, or start in the morning.

Response: Eight out of 18 would like to push through this evening, the rest want to start fresh tomorrow. Six jurors will be randomly struck by drawing juror numbers. The “let’s get started and get this over with” means what I hope it means.

This is a classic bait-and-switch. Sure, life is more important than a Pez dispenser.

But, using the leftie argument, they could burn your fields, steal your food, and demolish your dwelling, leaving you unharmed to starve and die.

As with everything the left says, it ignores reality.

If I am standing “INSIDE” my property, such as a house, or “SITTING”inside my property such as a motor vehicle and someone tries to destroy it, then life being more important goes out the window.

A lot of life is spent in hard labor to build property.

If your kid (not you etc) Had someone bashing him attacking him and pointing a gun at him.

Or you and you had a gun what would you do jurors?

That wasn’t a fuzzy photo. It was a Picasso photo.

Makes you wonder what the arsonist was doing at that time.

So here we have it: It’s OKAY for Auntyfalala to point a gun at you, but you MUST NOT point a gun at them!

No hypocrisy there!

its a cheesy state

No qualified immunity for prosecutors who lie or who make accusations that they reasonably knew, could have known or should have known was false.

Bring the pendulum back to center. No qualified immunity for unconscionable or depraved behavior.

Defund the police – and you get situations like this.

And having chosen so, he experiences the rest of the process.

I’m all for the 2nd Amendment and the right to self defense. That said, the right to pull the trigger and the pulling of it is the start of what comes next, not the end of it. The first half of the process leads to the second half. We should be raising our children to become citizens and officials who protect what protects us all and our next generation. If the good and the generous and the intelligent do not step up and abandon the culture of law, civility and governance to the distempered class with their rampaging vanities and psychopathy, then Binger is the future, not the good Judge.

As it is, we are all one bad faith accusation away from a destroyed life. Dr. Judy Mikovits, General Michael Flynn, Scooter Libby, and on and on and on. I’ll be keeping young Kyle and his family in our prayers.

Carol’s observation is entirely reasonable. It just fails to answer the cardinal issue:

When danger comes, how can civility hold the line if no one shows up to defend it?

You should watch Allie Beth Stuckey’s special episode on YT from 3 days ago about Kyle Rittenhouse. She talked with a reporter who was there all the nights of the Kenosha riots. As the reporter explains, Kyle and the other young men who were there saved many lives that night. Previous nights, there had been murders, setting houses on fire that had young children in them, etc. The night Kyle was there, they were doing the same thing and were trying to explode a gas station. Kyle and the men he were with put out that fire, stopping the explosion…and that was what really ticked those men off towards Kyle and his group. Unfortunately, the politicians and those in leadership refused to have police or national guard stop the destruction of life and property. Who stood up to save lives that night were young men.

Well, there was some on his head…

Yes there was testimony to that effect. Prosecutor is making things up. Slimy, despicable Liar!

Probably around 2 or 3 pm. They just broke for lunch, and I think Binger did about half an hour of his requested 2 1/2 hours. It would be so interesting to see the jurors’ faces, but their identities and images are not public.

Kyle’s lawyers, however, can gauge the response. So, too, can Binger’s colleague Kraus. But Kraus is also a jerk, so unlikely to pick up on the fact that jurors aren’t paying attention, are rolling their eyes, etc. If that happens, an honest colleague would tell the lawyer to change focus or tone.

Each side is allowed 2.5 hours for closing. They will probably break for lunch during the States closing. Guessing an hour for lunch, that would be about 3.5 hours from the start of closing arguments, which started about 11:15 CST.

Short version – About 2:45 CST

Just broke for lunch. Back at 12:45 CST.

Hopefully more of them will be sent on to the afterlife….

‘The People’s Revolution’=Democrat/FBI steered criminal marxist-anarchist group

I don’t see it happening. He shot some white guys. Plus, if he’s acquitted and they riot, what are they gonna do when even more good white guys show up to end the riot?

Wisconsin national guard already on standby.

fugg them… It has to stop.??‍♂️

Cities =high crime, high taxes, high populations of “minorities”, Democrats. Rural/suburban areas=low crime,lower taxes, better quality of life, majority Heritage Americans. Republican. (Also known as “Flyover” country by Neo-Soviet Democrats who hate Heritage America and want to destroy it)

War correspondent, Michael Yon, recently made the observation that he has been in many war zones and one thing to note is that in places like Iraq and Afghanistan and other places only certain areas were actually engaged in active warfare. Other areas of the the country were pretty normal and not impacted by the fighting.
Said we are already at war–in several areas of our country–Seattle, Portland, DC, etc

deleted by me.

Many of his arguments have been of the emotional type. For example, Kyle ignored the curfew… so did others including the men who were shot.

You have to ask yourself if you are a juror, I know I would, why is an unarmed man chasing a guy that is armed? Sure, you can claim the armed guy pointed the gun, provoked the other and on. However, if I’m unarmed, I’m not chasing a guy who is armed out in the open. Particularly if he did point his gun at me.

Same applies to Gaige.

yes

objections are rare in closing, but geez, a flat out misstatement of the law should be an exception

Pantyfart has doxxed them on their little networks in Cali from what I have gathered. They are under heavy pressure. So when are we normal folk going to doxx pantyfart, People’s Revolution or whatever that clownshow group was these losers were part of that attacked Kyle, and Burn Loot Murder? Doxx and destroy. Don’t settle for less. DESTROY. That is how the left rolls with us. Take our jobs, houses, spouses, kids, lives and leave us under a bridge with their sick innuendo and lies and cancel smears if they don’t outright kill us. I taught my Community College classes for years that the Communist hard left do not merely like to win a few, they want to, live to, and must destroy their opposition. They don’t just beat them.

We need to forget there ever was some toff named Queensbury. We really do.

there in lies the problem, they are making it very expensive for us to defend ourselves.

District of Columbia v. Heller (2008).

By a 5-4 vote, the Supreme Court held that D.C.’s handgun ban violated an individual’s Second Amendment right to bear arms for lawful purposes such as self-defense.

One hopes the defense had someone getting the citation/quote over lunch.

Exactly on point Daniel. This case is classic self defense under the law and accepted legal theory on self defense throughout the country. Nonetheless , even if (hypothetically) Kyle had pointed the gun at the rioters or cursed and called them names as implied by the prosecutor, the situation was diffused when Kyle was moving on down the street. In those circumstances these rioters (or anyone else for that matter) has no right to chase a person down, threatening/beating him because they are angry let alone point a gun at him or try to take his weapon.

It wasn’t too long before this riot that there was one in Portland where a cold blooded leftist shot a patriot in the head and killed him. Set up an ambush and killed him.

Kyle had every right to be armed and to take action to defend himself.

There is an element of truth to this post from Ben and Jerry: If it had been a black 17 year old who was defending himself, he wouldn’t have been charged, guaranteed.

yeah we’ve done a 180 in most things during that time. Your beliefs and morals and values are stale and old. Time to embrace the NWO.

I thought if the prosecution fails to make a case the judge can dismiss on a motion by the defense after the last prosecution witness/evidence presented. 

It’s called a motion for a directed verdict. Rare, because one principle of the jury system is that the jury finds the facts, not the judge. If the prosecution has not laid out all the elements of a prima facie case, the judge can grant it, but the judges usually go with, “when in doubt send it to the jury.” Credibility is a jury issue, too.
