I for one do not believe he shot them people out of self defence and never meant to kill them. I think he intended to kill them and thought he would get away with it. The Judge as well is a joke. What a very strange trial. Only in America.
Rambo probably investigated for his connections to the Mujahideen
I notice the Reddit mods, are really disturbed if you mentioned that Kyle shot dead a paedo, a domestic abuser and wounded a burglar with 'think of the human' the operative phrase. I suppose they say to themselves or on Discord: 'that could have been me.' He withdrew yet they kept advancing on him, the convicted pederast (four boys) shouting for Kyle to 'shoot me n-word,' so we will soon see what the jury thinks. The prosecution is terrible, pointing a gun with a finger on the trigger, which is wholly unsafe, bad practice. They cannot be that desperate for a mistrial.
I don't believe there is any charge of "crossing state lines with a gun" with or without authorisation. Certainly I've never encountered one and I've done a reasonable amount of interstate travel (Air and land) with firearms.
The gun is either lawfully possessed in whatever state they are in with the gun, or it is not. The origin of the owner is never a factor in any law I'm aware of. The closest thing to 'authorisation' would be an exception to policy, such as a soldier assigned to a base in California who wants to import and keep a personally-owned rifle which meets the California criterion of "assault weapon", but it's an exception to possess (which is written into the law) which, not an exception to transport.
And some say it's all a conspiracy theory 😂😂😂
Lost boy in a strange city packing a Ar15 loaded with 5.56/.223 of FMJ
I can think of a few alright. People claiming that Kyle was a bad shooter and under the pressure he was under should have only hit centre mass in order while being assaulted to be a proficient shooter.
Oh.... That's not what you mean?
You mean that people defending someone who attempts to help a city under siege from "mostly peaceful" looters are somehow suffering from a Rambo complex?
The ones so angry about him crossing state lines are also the ones usually so upset when you talk about the need for borders and walls. They are funny like that.
Infowars?
While undefire from rittenhouse ???
Gaige Grosskreutz is suing the state because of his lost arm, for I believe something like 30$million(it was mentioned in the trial)
His case rests on the outcome of the Rittenhouse case.
This is the same guy who said he was following Rittenhouse, in the direction of Rittenhouse, because of Rittenhouse but not chasing Rittenhouse. The double speak in his testimony was truly something to behold. Not once in his lawsuit suing the city did he mention that he had a gun or that he pointed it at Rittenhouse, not in his police statement either.
Wasn't Rambo unfairly targeted as well?
I believe that every state has different gun laws and in some circumstances it can be illegal to bring a gun across state lines without the proper authorisation.
It was originally believed that Rittenhouse had brought the gun across state lines but investigations proved this didn't happen. If Rittenhouse brought the gun across state lines on the night of the Kenosha shootings, he would have been guilty of an offence.....but this didn't happen. The gun was already in Wisconsin.
It's a red herring thrown in for no reason. To make it sound as if he travelled miles to get involved.
It's about as significant as crossing from Westmeath into Meath, but the US media thought it sounded good.
Back when the story broke I don't think they were certain that they had sufficiently propagandised their base as to have them repeat a narrative in obvious contradiction to all evidence. So "crossed state lines" acted as a placeholder until they realised that actually their audiences were that brainwashed after all, but by the time the media could fabricate and introduce such corkers as "he went there to hunt black people", it had already stuck with (particularly) Twitter's extremist left.
A lot of posters here watching too many action films and having a Rambo complex.
Can anyone explain the significance of him crossing state lines? I don't understand how that is somehow illegal? I keep reading it mentioned but I genuinely don't understand what the big deal is. The US is one country.
Disarm you say?
So much narrative, so little reality. 😂
You don't need an "official invitation" to prevent gangs of looters and thugs ransacking and burning the community which your family lives in.
Underage escapade sounds like a film poor aul Rosenbaum would have downloaded.
Gun charge was thrown out as it was legal for KR to have it. Keep up.
I don't have any problem with owners of businesses defending their premises. That doesn't change the fact that Rittenhouse and his buddies were at no point extended an official invitation to come down and help out, and the owner of the car dealership he was claiming to help protect testified that he never specifically asked for them to protect his place of business. Not to mention that there was already actual local militia members on the streets. It wasn't like Rittenhouse and his militia had this unique idea to go down there. There were already locals on the ground, rendering his particular underage escapade across state lines quite unnecessary.
I think there is a similarity between the Covington MAGA kid and this case in that people have gone all in with the narrative before any proper examination of the case has taken place.
With Covington it was kind of absurd that this should even be discussed in Ireland at all because it basically boils down to some old guy approaching a group of kids banging a drum and the kids refusing to move out of his way while smirking. LOL. We have little scrotes here pushing people under trains and that somehow gets LESS coverage than some US schoolkid smirking at an old man.
This Rittenhouse thing seems like a pretty easy case to not get invested in. He's not a mass shooter in the same way as what happened in Las Vegas or the Pulse Nightclub or in the Columbine case decades ago. There is a reasonable argument that there could have been self-defense here and in all fairness it wasn't exactly upstanding members of society he killed and they were quite obviously going after him. So either some kid with a gun murdered 3 scumbags who were attacking him or he didn't murder them because it was self defense. It's not exactly a situation worth getting so worked up about.
Though I would say it does raise issues about how we see our communities and how far we would be willing to go to protect our communities. If protestors arrive at a place with the intent of causing damage and harm then those people are absolutely not doing anything for the community at all. So we, in Ireland, would expect the police to do their jobs if local kids were going around smashing up local businesses. What do we do when the police just don't bother doing anything? Sit tight and hope that the mob doesn't target us?
LOL, perhaps he should have called the cops instead?
He lost a bicep trying to disarm an active shooter that had just killed someone.
Sorry but you are totally totally wrong there.
It was stupid for Rittenhouse to be there with the gun but it certainly wasn't illegal. The judge ruled on that and dismissed that charge against him. Rittenhouse wasn't breaking the law by being there with the gun. That's 100%.
I know the message board is anonymous and so it's not possible to actually lose face or anything like that.
Is there not even a part of you that wonders if maybe you have been duped by the mainstream narrative on this?
Has it been confirmed that it was him? I genuinely haven't seen the video. If it is true I obviously will condemn him for it. Still the difference between punching a girl and anally raping a child is not comparable
I’d prefer neither.
There is a video online of him punching a girl in the head several times.
You are right, it doesn't matter if he drive 20, 200 or 2000 miles.
If my family were living in a town that was at risk of being burned down or looted by rioters, I would hope I would be brave enough to travel whatever distance needed to help protect them and their community.
I'd prefer more Rittenhouse's than Rosenbaum's that's for sure.
Except the weapons charges were tossed, only one person was there with an illegal weapon and he lost a bicep.
There is no whataboutery and there is no 'two wrongs', unless you think a town abandoned to anarchy that chooses to defend itself is somehow wrong. Armed thugs arrived to burn the place down and the athorities tasked with protecting it LET THEM, You would have to be mad to suggest that people there had no just right to defend themselves and should just submit to the mob and beg for mercy.
Tourists is what the people with guns who travelled to Kenosha on the night have been called chaos tourists ,they went to see what was going on and get their pictures taken ,all dolled up with weapons and body armour ,loads of posing for photos but did **** all else
After seeing the evidence and his total lack of remorse ,I've not a lot of sympathy ,the people who brought him to kenosha bare a part of responsibility ,and then came the lies of being an EMT ,and being paid to guard the car lot ,he was attacked with a rock ,he was attacked with a baseball bat and had his head nearly taken off with a skateboard ,
He was hit with a skateboard because people reacted to him shooting rosenbaum ,he told people it wasn't him ,
He told everyone (likely advised) he lunged at his gun ,not Rittenhouse but rittenhouses gun ,so he could kill him ,the drone footage shows rosenbaum going towards him but with several feet between them,he fires the first shoot and Rosenbaum hit the deck and was shot on the ground ,the last shot to his back ,
To me it show Rittenhouse in a different light callous even .
The only time I've seen him emotional was in the witness box and not a tear in eyes while looking at the judge to get him out of there ,
It was a series of events (unfortunate)? that snowballed into the situation we have now
