Oso planning to go pro
One thing this case has legitimately taught me (most likely), is that I can be a whole lot more aggressive in self defense. Prior to this, I would not have thought I could shoot someone (dead) chasing me and yelling, as long as I "feared for me life".
I think I can count the number of times I've seen a civilian roaming the streets with an assault rifle out in the open in my life on a single finger.But sure.
In my apparent role of defender of the arby's fund, I would not advise you to do that. You are probably not going to become a cause celebre and raise unfathomable amounts of money from internet donations to fund your legal defense. The amount of money you will spend on vindicating your actions of self defense will keep some criminal defense firm in Arby's for a long time.The reality of the situation is that even a legally justified shoot is likely to be the worst day of your life and likely will take a year and several hundred thousand dollars to defend.I do not advise putting yourself in that position if you have any conceivable alternative.
You would, however, need a jury to believe your actions were reasonable under the circumstances, so please don't open fire on the next solicitor to knock on your front door.
Good deal. I'll wait for them to lunge towards me. Would pulling something out of a bag and extending their hand towards me be enough?
how many times have you been out during a riot?
jficke awesome analysis/posting, thanks for the clarity around some of this stuff. Is it normal for a prosecutor to argue the idea that because a witness hires a lawyer it’s an admission of bias or guilt for some reason during cross?

This didn't happen
BLM's a bit smarter than to be out and about in a riot.Bad things happen to bad people who put themselves in bad situations. Kyle's picking up the minor charges, we'll be imprisoned for a couple years. Hopefully everyone will forget him.This is a big win for white guys everywhere in America. Things have been looking very bleak for us, but we can kill people under the self-defense claim.
jficke awesome analysis/posting, thanks for the clarity around some of this stuff. Is it normal for a prosecutor to argue the idea that because a witness hires a lawyer it’s an admission of bias or guilt for some reason during cross? I’ve been reading some analysis that this prosecutor has been so fast and loose with some of his stuff the last couple days that he is trying to force a mistrial cause they know it’s not going well and want another swing at it in a few months. Is that a legit strategy?
Along with the minor charges, he’ll also likely be picking up millions in lawsuits from left wing politicians such as these ones:https://twitter.com/ayannapressley/status/1298780540431224832?s=2https://twitter.com/ilhanmn/status/1299014953530253315?s=21
2. He forbid inclusion of a video of Rittenhouse saying he wished he had his AR so he could shoot people he thought were shoplifting from a CVS. Excluding this was egregious. It goes to state of mind prior to Kenosha and intent, the latter critical to some of the charges. It proves he wanted an AR15 to go shoot people he viewed as looters/shoplifters.
https://mobile.twitter.com/JackPosobiec/status/1458890557053448203It did. Defense objected, Binger said he was trying to prove bias and some other stuff. Judge had to go to a recess, sent jury out of the court room etc
Um, what? Why would they sue him?
My apologies. I thought you referring to the cross of Rittenhouse.Though Binger definitely didn't suggest it was an admission of guilt or bias.
You misunderstood. Rittenhouse will be receiving millions of dollars in damages. Not sure why you weren’t able to infer that.
