You really think “but he worked a shift first” is a get out of jail free card. An the WP symbols were just “ok”, the PB anthem thing was just a coincidence…. www.stltoday.com/news/prosecu...

The prosecutor had to concede at pre-trial that he had no evidence that the defendant had any links to, was a member of, or even knew of the Proud Boys or any other group on or before Aug 25th 2020. The photo was taken four months after the shootings, hence its inadmissibility at trial.

No, I think "but he worked his shift first" disproved your claim in the post I was responding to. None of it has anything to do with the elements of the crime or guilt or innocence. If he had driven there on the 25th from Antioch, with a weapon from IL, it's still legally self-defense in Wisconsin.

Nah, he always intended to go to the riot with a rifle. A rifle he had a friend buy for him illegally. It’s really something to watch you and yours rally ‘round your little proud boy.

There was no evidence that either Rittenhouse or Dominick Black had any intention of being in Kenosha to guard property before being asked by Nick Smith who, according to Smith’s testimony, only contacted Black about it on the morning of the 25th, just hours before the shootings.

The rifle had been purchased lawfully three months prior by Dominick Black, who owned and kept it at his address. It was never Rittenhouse’s gun. It was intended to be, in January 2021 when Rittenhouse turned 18, but that transfer never happened, ultimately. Black always owned it.

"Nah, he always intended to go to the riot with a rifle. A rifle he had a friend buy for him illegally." Even if this were true, it has no legal bearing on whether it was or wasn't self-defense. You're allowed to defend yourself with an illegal weapon. It happens in gang cases all the time.

Unfortunately, this account blocked me. But, the way you are destroying them with facts is absolutely hilarious. Are you responding to the same account? Of so, I'm shocked that you haven't been blocked yet.
