whole defense revolves around Rittenhouse saying he was there to protect property. no the defense was based on he was being assaulted and he defended himself..the 'he shouldn't have been there ergo he's guilty of murder' trope is a left trope.

Nothing to add. Everyone wants to look at this as right versus left instead of right versus wrong and the justice system. Our country is in a very dark place. There are so many issues here to unpack that I canтАЩt blame the jury for acquitting this one kid for being an idiot but having enough lack of evidence on the other side to save him. I hope he learns from this horrible experience and doesnтАЩt just fall in with the ultra right wing crowd if you think his actions define heroism instead of stupidity
It is Right v. Left. The Left politicized this case by retailing a long, deliberate string of lies, as detailed by Ms. Weiss. And in fact the lying continues, e.g. on MSNBC.
Well, of course this child accidental killer with his ar-15 runs right to tucker carlson to gloat about his action. He couldnтАЩt stop smiling the entire interview. Says it all. Sad sad sad
If youтАЩd just been acquitted of murder, wouldnтАЩt you be smiling? As for sad, thatтАЩs a word better applied to much of the mediaтАЩs relentless lying about the facts of the Rittenhouse case. SadтАФand outrageous. So are you outraged by that?
Thomas, it is not possible to debate someone who is on an extreme point in the political spectrum. By definition, you are dug into your positions and have learned from your almighty leader that admitting any error is a sin. Yes, that is sad.
No, I would not be gloating to a far right hack on foxnews after I killed two people and severely crippled another as a 17-year old using a weapon of mass destruction. I'd be on my knees thanking the good lord for saving me from the punishment I know I deserve for having been so stupid. Justice was done in this case given the provable facts and a few significant errors by the prosecution, but no, i would not be going on foxnews and gloating. It is very revealing behavior.
Try this. Can you openly write down anything you think Kyle did wrong that night? Please try to control your urge to say something sarcastic or belittliing while we're discussing an event that destroyed 3 families.
Yes, it does become tiresome to point out the facts of life, over and over again. For instance, we now have a bunch of progressive Democratic members of Congress demanding a Justice Department investigation of the Rittenhouse verdict. I have a hard time believing that even the hapless Merrick Garland would do such a stupid, counterproductive thingтАФbut then he's the guy who tried to turn fed-up parents mad at their local school boards into "domestic terrorists."
Now, does anybody thing that said members of Congress are concerned with right and wrong and justice? Don't make me laugh. These are the very people who've been describing an incident involving four white guys as an example of "white supremacy." So having politicized the trial, they're now trying to politicize the verdict. Perhaps you should direct your pleas for grace and comity to that quarter.
So much anger and digging in. I canтАЩt go anywhere with your perspective. Just sad for our once great experiment in democracy. Would be encouraging if you could make legitimate criticisms of the left while admitting your guys have been really dishonest with just one important thing. It would be a healthy first step. I hope some of you can try this exercise.

Sigh. So tiresome. Impossible to convince people to take a long breath and reset to a kinder time. Go in peaceтАж
