Kyle Rittenhouse | Now crowdfunding LOLsuits against Whoopi Goldberg, LeBron James, and The Young Turks

[arnie_ni]

Based on the laws and what I've seen, right decision.

But it's completely mental he can even claim self defence while walking around with a rifle.

 

[VorZakone]

Makes me sick to my stomach. Why didn't they charge him with the obvious stuff as well like illegal possession of a firearm?

Keep up. The judge threw out that charge days ago because of state law

 

[Bubz27]

And so it begins

Began ages ago.

This is the kind of low information poster I've been fighting against for the last three weeks

I feel for you, Drainy. You’ve been a great sport on here, with incredible patience, and your updates have been informative

 

[calodo2003]

To the meme thread...

 

[Eyepopper]

Did he cry when they read the verdict?

I'm looking forward to the grandstanding and championing of him as a right wing poster boy.

 

[fergieisold]

Correct decision based on what I’ve seen.

'My apologies your High and Mighty Redneckness.

 

[MarylandMUFan]

And I totally missed that he threw out those charges. That's insane (sorry folks).

This was written in the script from the start. If it was a black boy that shot a white person this would have all gone down differently.

Irony personified! A Maryland citizen calling a poster living in the UK a “redneck”!

Yea the cops would have filled him with bullets.

 

[VorZakone]

Just curious, but do you fear for the citizens of Kenosha from rioters?

Probably not. It's not like these small businesses are all white-owned, plenty of them are owned by minorities.

What an odd situation to have a spontaneous orgasm in.

Did he just throw himself to the ground?

amazing stuff

 

[Mrs Smoker]

Good.

 

[caid]

That sets a pretty terrible precedent. I think i'd emigrate if i was living in america, I probably would have a long time ago tbh but this alone would be enough for me to bail out.

 

[AllGoodNamesRGone]

America is broken

 

[Wolverine]

Just curious, but do you fear for the citizens of Kenosha from rioters?

Sure. But more so the former.

I just cant imagine an analogous situation in the UK where a guy decides to go into a crowd/riot in his best call of duty cosplaying fantasy vigilante mode, looking like an active shooter and a similar verdict being reached with people dead.

I mean i get the acquittal on the legal grounds, sort of, as presented but not morally, and worries for its implications for left wing protestors there from far right militia types who will be emboldened by this

Have you been to Maryland? And trust me, there are plenty of rednecks across the pond as well.

 

[Scarlett Dracarys]

Yep..he wouldn't have even gotten as far as "justice"

 

[Achilles McCool]

Probably not. It's not like these small businesses are all white-owned, plenty of them are owned by minorities.

I don’t understand. Can you clarify your position?

 

[MarylandMUFan]

America is broken

I think we can end the thread on that comment.

 

[arnie_ni]

Ravens fan here. That's all, carry on

 

[LARulz]

He still killed 2 people, I dunno. I find it weird that you can just get off the hook free after killing 2 people

 

[Achilles McCool]

Alright. I fear for both sides as well

 

[Scarlett Dracarys]

Kinda puts a damper on me literally just becoming an American Citizen

 

[MarylandMUFan]

Fair play. I never understood those baggy purple and white ravens pants that Ravens fans (and Bills fans) wear to games.

 

[AllGoodNamesRGone]

Your half of the country is probably fine.

 

[FireballXL5]

What a joke.

 

[Achilles McCool]

Yep. Lived on the Eastern Shore for a little while when I was younger. I’ve been all over the great state of Maryland, and I know for a fact that @Drainy wouldn’t be considered a redneck by anyone

 

[Wolverine]

Am I right in understanding he wasnt legally permitted to carry the AR-15? Isnt there some repercussions for firing a weapon like that without a licence?

hows it looking for future civil suits etc? Or are we all just consigned to him being on fox/carpool karoke now?

 

[P-Ro]

@Drainy found guilty on all counts by the caf court but Rittenhouse cleared.

 

[IrishBlue1]

Did he just throw himself to the ground?

Penalty to Liverpool.

 

[Scarlett Dracarys]

He went there with the intent to kill. That's the bottomline.

 

[Trequarista10]

What's the atmosphere like amongst the crowd/protestors/supports outside? I fear there will be shootings in the wake of this.

Neck mentality knows no latitude or longitude.

Not necessarily calling you one, but one can encapsulate said mentality in Greenland.
