Fact is you're either a child or and idiot adult who doesn't understand the legal system. The Supreme court deemed the police are not a protection force.

I knew it was bad when a relative of mine said she watched the entire trial, but still didn't know about the fact that he was legally allowed to posses a hunting rifle and that he didn't cross state lines with it. Also, about the "He's just 17, he shouldn't be at a violent riot." That you hear people say. Keep your morality out of the law, he wasn't in court to find out whether or not whether or not people agreed with him. Also, he has just as much of a right to be there as the people burning shit down for 'black lives'. If this movement was real all those people would have been cleaning up trash in the ghetto and getting involved in programs to help educate young black kids to get them out of crime ridden areas

[@Zaysearth]

He literally had an AR-15 bro which is not legal to possess at 17. Also education starts at the top with government. Schools are funded by property and state tax and if you live in an area impacted by red lining, over policing, and poverty there’s not much money going towards public schools, While Private schools are funded by patrons and parents. Also don’t “cleaning the ghetto” as if every major city in this country isn’t a trash heap. black people don’t need physical help we need resources and that’s what it’s always been about. we are perfectly able people.

[@noiosobear6049]

Going into it, I didn’t really have an opinion on it, I had only heard someone say it was a hate crime or something similar a year prior. By the second day I was convinced he was innocent and that conviction only grew as the show went on. Came out of quarantine and told my friends that I was glad he was found not guilty and that it had been an important day for civil liberties. One of my friends responded passive aggressively claiming it was odd that I supported someone shooting unarmed black men. That moment opened my eyes a lot. Same friend told me two days later he didn’t feel safe living with me because I had not gotten the vaccine. Which I didn’t get for personal and health reasons. Take of that what you will.

In other words, your feelings are not facts. *"as he was on video that same year saying he wishes he had his AR to shoot looters."* Irrelevant. Different incident, different circumstances. As you'll note, instead of "firing rounds" at the people he though were in the process of committing an armed robbery, he called the police and reported the crime instead, like any responsible citizen would.

The law in question was very clear, as it is required by constitutional law (Supremacy Clause) to comply with the Second Amendment and 10 USC 246.

I had this debate with my manager last month. We sat around for 4 hours after work (Got paid overtime tho) and could not convince him no matter how much evidence, video evidence, or analogies. He didn't even know one of the guys kyle shot had a GUN. Only good thing was I found out someone else in our work was conservative. He overheard us talking and defended me.

[@seth5143]

Discussing politics at work is a terrible idea, just saying. Perception is more important than reality in terms of life outcome and your manager sounds like he would have a "conservative = Nazi" type of attitude. As you've alluded to here you're not going to change their mind anyway so what's the point of expending the time and energy? You'd probably be better off banging your head against a wall. I tell people that my politics are none of their fucking business and leave it at that unless it's absolutely necessary to reveal a bit (ie. when on a third or fourth romantic date or for participation points in a college class). If they're willing to ruin young kids' lives for defending themselves against armed adult attackers or even simply *smiling* at adult Leftists (Sandmann), they'll definitely do the same to you for having dissenting opinions.

[@kevinkirby4305]

@Seth The point is standing up for your principles, and if someone overhears you and is conservative, they will realize they aren't alone.

@@kevinkirby4305 I totally get what you're saying but because of the internet we live in a hyper-McCarthyist era. It's a huge risk and not all martyrs make the headlines necessary to obtain careers as political pundits. The flip-side is that the internet also provides a way to express these opinions (somewhat) anonymously so long as you have a VPN. At least until it turns into complete despotism and all these VPN companies, which are honeypots, sell you and your info out. But we're all fucked when that happens anyway.

I'm a truck driver and i listened to Rittenhouses entire testimony while driving a 10 hour shift. I listened to his direct and cross examination and the prosecutor was trying to paint him as an active shooter. The kid broke down on the stand when they started asking him to remember when he was being surrounded. They tried to kill him, he tried to run, he was cut off by people and he couldn't run any further, he turned around and faced the gun at his assailant who yelled 'Fuck you!' and tried to grab his gun. he was then shot 4 times. That kid did everything he possibly could and that guy went for his gun and died. After that everyone scattered and he contiuned running towards the police. Active shooters are classified as anyone who just starts blowing people away. This kid showed amazing discipline to continue to the police in an area controlled and overrun by rioters. The justice system actually worked and it's being used to spin a political divide, they want us fighting because the divisiveness is profitable. These media shits care nothing for the health of the nation, they'll bury it all for just one more dollar.

[@meself349]

There are also people like Joe Rogan and his guess who are sometimes disseminating incorrect information because they feel it's okay to go and make these podcasts without adequately researching the topic. You can't really blame people for getting angry when other people are using these public platforms to spread and correct information knowing how many people are watching these podcasts and forming their opinions based upon them. It would be nice if there was a little bit more responsibility involved in doing the requisite research before going public with this type of disinformation

[@cc5053]

Agreed. Social media has resulted in two things. 1) People live in an echo chamber so no alternative views ever reach them. They're surrounded only by peers that regurgitate the same exact thoughts and opinions. And 2) Social media writers have learned that a huge number of users will comment, form opinions, and argue a so called point based on a headline alone, without ever reading the article. You no longer have to be a good writer. You just need a good headline. When you combine those two things, the result is an ignorant and hardheaded population on social media. Not good in any way.

Very true. Some people at a restaurant were talking about the prosecutor and I commented on how he stupidly put his trigger in the guard. Then we laughed about the desperate Call of Duty "video game violence to real violence" comparison. When I got back to my table mate he commented about how he thought Kyle was dumb to go out with "an assault rifle" to kill innocent protesters. It was beyond a different perspective it was like he'd been fed a different situation completely. I had to explain that he was defending himself when he was chased by a guy calling for his death and then beaten with a skateboard while another man tried to beat him. He went to the "he shouldn't have been there in the first place" and I explained that "the pedophile shouldn't have chased a minor and then try to take his rifle from him". It was like he was hearing these details for the first time. It's astonishing how many people don't know the details of a case as high profile as this because their media doesn't want them to know.

The reason you never see anyone in an argument on social media agreeing with each other. Is because there are 3 types of arguments: 1. Argument from emotion (You're mean and people are suffering and that's more important than whether something is true) 2. Argument from what you'd like to be true because you imagine it'll improve the world (idealistic thinking, hypotheticals, often impractical or impossible because most people won't live up to your standards or your ideal is dumb to begin with) 3. Statistics, averages, evidence. (Which always is unpleasant because most people fall into the average category by definition) Which ever one of these three you choose, in your mind you'll be right in a way. Of course the only correct option is the third one, but that one will piss most people off.

Originally it was thought Wisconsin law forbade Rittenhouse to carry a rifle, hence the fuss about “state lines” (legal in one state, illegal in another). But it was nonsense. The Wisconsin statute does not forbid a teenager to carry a rifle, that charge was tossed aside on day one of the trial. But the “crossing state lines” - perfectly everyday legal event for Americans - remains as an artifact, a vestige of that first misunderstood legal issue. Pretty much every rioter crossed the lines of more than one state, many armed, some illegally so.
