Domestic terrorist attack in Wisconsin

[All_Pro_Bills]

I watched some of the post verdict commentary on outlets like CNN and MSNBC this afternoon.  Unsurprisingly, they hammered away at the white supremist and racism angle as that's been what they've been preaching since the beginning here.  I'm sure their flock will embrace the message but listening to the commentary and conversations they simply refuse to acknowledge a lot of the realities of the circumstances.  The fact the event was a riot and looting session is excluded. 

But when you tell lies and hear lies for over a year about something how else will people react?  And when it turns out exactly opposite of what you've been saying and what you've been hearing the alternative to believing the injustice conclusion is to accept the fact your beliefs are false.  Who wants to do that?

Never actually been factually proven to be him either

 

The entire article says appears to look like Rittenhouse.. it does not say it is Kyle Rittenhouse

 

And even if it is it doesn't make him a murderer

I hated this case and everything it said about modern day America.

- Black man shot by cops. A tragedy? Yes. He's crippled for life. Justifiable shooting? I think so. The cops were called to a classic dangerous/domestic violence scene, and the alleged perpetrator/victim (take your pick, they both fit the bill) did something stupid that caused the cop to think he was probably reaching for something dangerous.

- Idiot antifa "protesters" - White protesters - see this as an excuse to break stuff and burn someone else's city down. Some bring guns to a peaceful protest.

- Idiot chubby girlish looking Illinois boy decides he's gonna be the big man and brings his rifle to the riot. Tries to act tough patrolling the streets of someone else's city in someone else's state.

And shockingly it all ends with dead bodies.

From what I saw of the evidence and read of the law, I probably would've acquitted him too. He was guilty of stupidity, of trying to inflame an already explosive situation, but probably not of homicide under Wisconsin law under these circumstances. He is no hero. He is a moron. An acquitted moron, but a moron nonetheless. So too are his victims (or, as the judge would have it, recipients of his bullets).

I've always disliked that old phrase that always pops up around here: "Play stupid games, win stupid prizes." But it applies here better than any other sentiment.

 

People: just stop. Stop trying to get back at the man by breaking stuff and burning things of innocent people. Stop trying to be a self-appointed hero by fighting back against Idiot Team A by forming Idiot Team B. Respect the law. Protest and call for justice where you should. Jacob Blake? Not a hero. Cop who shot Jacob Blake? Not a hero (or a villain; just a cop trying to protect himself when an arrest went bad). Mr. Grosskreutz, the survivor with no biceps?  Rittenhouse? Not a hero. Other than the wrong-place, wrong-time cop, all parts of the problem, not the solution.

We think the exact same way of this situation. He’s an idiot and got lucky he didn’t lose his life. I probably would have acquitted him too, but this whole situation was stupid as hell and avoidable. That’s why I dont care if he was found innocent or guilty.

No, it does not make him a murderer whether its him or not.  

 

"Not a murderer" is interesting criteria for picking your heroes but do whatever makes you happy.

I'm sure he'll sleep better knowing he has your approval on doing things that make him happy.

He didn't break any laws. And where did I say not being a murderer is a criteria for being a hero?

 

If your child got attacked and he had a weapon on himself to defend himself.. you bet your ass you hope he was able to defend himself.. he defended himself against grown men that is heroic

 

It is a victory for self-defense in America.. that is what self-defense is all about

 

There's tons of places with open carry where there's very little gun violence... If you're not able to defend yourself in this country you have nothing

I truly hope he does.  You do not have my approval to do anything that makes you happy.  Good luck sleeping knowing that.

two things…nobody here considers him a hero. Also, wouldn’t you say all your heroes are not murderers as I assume you aren’t a serial killer fan boy?

The only murderer I consider a hero has rushed for 2000 yards in 14 games.

Not a bad post.  The whole thing from the beginning of the protest was a series of bad acts that culminated in violence.  No surprise there.  The kid should never have gone there into that powder keg.  The governor and city leadership though own a big piece of what happened.  The protest should have been shut down the minute a brick was thrown. 

 

Kyle's free today but his problems are probably just beginning.  There will be a lot of forces working against him in the coming months and years I suspect. 

 

Justice seems to have been served at this point but it ain't pretty.

There's also videos of your hero beating a woman.

 

He's as much of a shitstain as the 3 felons he killed.

Despite the verdict, I think Rittenhouse's life will not be easy and may indeed be ruined. I feel genuinely sorry for the kid.

Unfortunately the verdict is not the end.  The media and their accomplices in the social justice movement will not accept that the narratives they've been peddling for the past year have been invalidated by the court proceedings.  Rather they are intent on doubling down here.  The "correct" outcome did not happen therefore there is something wrong with the legal process or the people administering the legal process.  The reality that the dis-information and false narratives they've been peddling for the past year failed to hold up when confronted by the facts heard in court escapes them.      

They will hammer away relentlessly on all the usual weekend political shows.  You'll be hearing constant and consistent talking points with references to the usual stereotypes and calls for tougher gun restrictions and self-defense guidelines from people that have championed the elimination of criminal prosecutions and sentences.  Watching left leaning media outlets discussing the verdict is an exercise in some alternative reality.  Even after the verdict you're left wondering if there were two trials going on and you were watching one and they were watching the other.  I'm left to conclude their is something fundamentally wrong with their ability to mentally process reality.  Or perhaps they're so invested in their fantasies about collusion and conspiracies driven by their victim ideologies that they cannot or will not tell the difference between reality and fantasy.  One other explanation is they are pathological liars.

And once again the left wing media walks their viewers right into yet another dead end, only to be disappointed again but ever ready to pick up the trumped up cause de jour …bright and early tomorrow morning. Rinse and repeat! It’s a shame.

I have to LOL whenever I hear anyone talk about this being a case of "white privilege."  The Dems have truly become the party of crying racism over everything.

Whole bunch of white people in Brooklyn marching for BLM in response to a white guy defending himself from a bunch of white guys in Wisconsin.
