Insider has published a story that seems supportive of the idea that Rittenhouse acted in self-defense. The Google News page still has plenty of typical MSM bullshit, but you also have articles with titles like "The Rittenhouse Prosecution Is Not Going So Well" and coverage of the filming of jurors.
Even on Reddit the narrative is collapsing. Idiots claiming that Kyle brought the gun across state lines are getting downvoted:
[-36] In wisconsin if you're engaging in reckless behavior (like crossing state lines to bring an illegal firearm into a riot) then the normal bar for self-defense is raised considerably.
Even a progressive moron in that second thread admits that this is "obviously a politically motivated trial."
CNN is still chugging along trying to portray him in a negative light but even their rhetoric is getting less extreme. Maybe they're just afraid of getting sued. Snopes has acknowledged the evidence as true while making extra sure to point out it doesn't mean Kyle is innocent legally and how anyone who says Kyle is innocent is wrong.
If Kyle is exonerated, the BLM/Antifa goons may not find much support for plans to go after the jury.
Good thing jurisprudence doesn't give a toss about determining innocence. It's concerned with determining guilt, or lack thereof.
I find their statement "That claim was true (we lay out evidence to elaborate on that finding below), though deserved some extra context." to be particularly rich. It's true but CONTEXT! He saw someone get shot! He was just trying to stop a shooter! All irrelevant because this gauge-wearing fuck (named Gaige, no less) isn't the one on trial. Meanwhile any of the actually relevant context - like what was happening to the KID ON TRIAL at the time he fired - is just ignored.
Oh, and “I was never trying to kill the defendant. In that moment, I was trying to preserve my own life, but doing so while taking the life of another is not something I am capable or comfortable doing.” Bullshit. Like when you were arrested for burglary I'm sure you were just taking a lovely sightseeing tour. You had a loaded gun and you were running and moving to point it at someone who was also armed. Either you intended to put him down or you were begging to be shot as much as the pedophile that Rittenhouse iced.
I am sorry for those I may offend who have this in this place but, people who wear guages I legit can't talk to them in real life beyond the absolute minimum. Grosses me out too much.
Million piercings whatever I am fine, but those guages just look horrible.
More on point: Yeah that whole speech of "I never would be able to take a human life even to defend myself" thing was so absurd. SO obviously not true and people who actually act that way sorry they are children in mindset.
Any piercings that aren’t on the earlobes are completely unacceptable.
Oh I agree, but I mean it doesn't outright "gross me out" on a level of the gauges. Still totally agree with you there.
Add septum piercings to that list, and there are two of us.
Sorry but that just sounded silly.
