      They most likely sent rioters outside of the courthouse to pressure the jury to give a guilty verdict even though they know Rittenhouse is innocent. The jury will read a guilty verdict to save their own asses. The national guard is outside the courthouse as well on stand by. But the jury are feeling the pressure to say guilty even though they know he is justified in shooting the attackers. The jury will throw Rittenhouse under the bus to save their asses and most of the country.

    • @dougdoesall
      @dougdoesall 2 года назад +15

      There can be a relatively successfully peaceful protest, while in one area people who are not peacefully protesting can act on their own. It doesn't mean the main body of protesters are acting violently. lived through all the 1960s "riots' and protests. Most protests go like this: A main body of peaceful protesters exists. As well, a few angry people act out in some other manner. The result is the media and people who disagree with the protesters paint the entire protest as having been a non-peaceful or "violent" protest. As well, lighting something on fire doesn't make a protest "violent". If the main body of a protest is causing actual violence to property, not just a dumpster (and it's the main body of protest), then you could legitimately say the protest was a violent one. If a cop says it was a peaceful protest it was because the cop overseeing or seeing the main protest saw just that....a peaceful protest. Then, in another area of town or of the area a few other people were doing bad things...it doesn't or shouldn't mark the protest as being not peaceful.

      We believe the left’s narrative because we saw in plain view that in most cases when a black man kills or gets killed his entire past is allowed to be mentioned in court as a determining factor. We know that Trayvon Martin smoked weed hours before his encounter Zimmerman, we know George Floyd’s entire criminal history, Michel Brown robbing the store was able to be used as evidence. In this case they weren’t even allowed to mention that he illegally crossed state lines with a firearm as a minor. They weren’t allowed to show the video of Rittenhouse the night before the murders saying he wished he had his gun that night so he could kill rioters. For some strange reason they allowed this case to only be about the 30 seconds when he shot people.

The prosecution kept claiming that "You can clearly see Mr. Rittenhouse pointing his gun at Kaminski". No you can't. You can't see anything in the video or blurry photo. The original scenario they laid out was debunked as it showed him aiming as a left-handed individual would. Rittenhouse is left handed. The prosecution then changed their narrative claiming he was facing a different direction, proving they have no idea what they were looking at either, just throwing shit on the wall hoping it sticks. Prosecutors aren't supposed to lie, or speculate about evidence, that's illegal to do. Yet the judge let them get away with it in the ONLY possible piece of evidence they have to convict Rittenhouse.

      Please don't. I usually don't comment on RUclips at all but people being so quick to adopt this phrase just because it sounds smart is actually really frustrating me. "When politics enter the room, logic usually gets up and leaves."
      While I understand what he was trying to say with that statement in context it really quite bothers me. Politics are not inherently illogical. They can create strong emotions but it's not as if the act of engaging in politics or having strong political beliefs itself is illogical. This reads as if he's just conflating politics with emotions. Like there were a lot of politics during the civil rights movement but it's not like MLK threw logic out the window every time he got on stage to speak. Imagine if I shot someone, and I had a prior history of shooting people of that persons particular marginalized community. It would be both logical AND political to assume that it was probably a hate based crime.

So what you’re really saying is Kyle felt threatened by the presence of a gun (whilst he was in possession of a gun). He had also aimed a gun at Rosenbaum prior to shooting him - so perhaps Rosenbaum felt threatened by the gun being pointed at him? You don’t lose the right to self defence if you’re unarmed.

We can't sit back and judge what happen while we are watching from afar in our safe places in our homes. We can't know what it was like night after night of these people rioting, burning, and causing all kinds of harm. Who was going to protect this town? Who was there? Where was the National Guard? Where was anyone? I am getting sick and tired of the few people that were willing to fight back even if it meant taking arms with them to protect that town. Doctor...would you get off your fucking high horse that you sit on and protect your town if you had violent rioters burning your town down and protect at all costs. Would you? You can sit in judgement as to what Rittenhouse did . I am glad this kid did what he felt he had to do. There mountain of evidence that supported him that none of us saw because we weren't there to see it. Stop this shit Doctor and move on. It's done. His life is about moving on. I suggest you move on too. It's over. We all need to move on. This does not do us any good to rehash what happened that night. It was awful. It was terrible. I was sick to death to see our country go from normal to complete riot out of control. Whose fault is it? Think hard it's not a hard answer. The fact is Doctor, you have never had a conversation with Rittenhouse. You have seen only interviews with him or followed the trial. You can't know who he is unless you do a case study on him for a long period of time. You have is just a guess drawing from your expertise. This young man had to make a split choice that night. Do I die or do I kill. He made the right choice. Why was he there? Because he wanted to save the town. He wanted to save someone. Make a difference. I think it is that simple.

    To be quite honest with you if someone is running away (like Kyle is in EVERY video) and the person running away has an semi-automatic assault rifle and you can clearly see that they are in posession of that semi-automatic assault rifle, it's probably unwise for you to chase after them. It's always wiser to run in the opposite direction of someone carrying a gun. Unless you're a police officer then it's your job but if you're a civilian, don't be a hero, don't go chasing people with guns because they can end up shooting you in self defense if they fear you're about to attack them.

In 2020 during the riots a lot of civilians who are gun owners were hired by business owners to protect their shops from looting and destruction. Kyle was one of those standing guard with his rifle. I don't know the events that led up to the videos showing Kyle running away with people chasing him but I did see all videos available that show seconds before attack. That's ALL the videos show. We must judge based on what we know. Also, one of the people Kyle shot, was pointing a gun at Kyle, before Kyle shot him. So that guy then also shouldn't have a gun right?

Him defending himself led to two dead people therefore it's logically better to let the mob kill him.

    I agree with 8/10ths of this video but Rittenhouse and the gang had permission to be there by the owners (around 4-5 people testified to that). I'm also having a hard time understanding how being on a private property during the riot while armed (allowed by law) during a curfew (wasn't legal and was thrown out by Judge) is in any way is asking for it. Imagine saying a woman who was attacked was asking for it because "insert meaningless reason here that's shifting the blame from the attacker to the victim here". A smart person wouldn't have been there, but the people who were weren't looking for trouble, they have the right to live without someone attacking them cause they feel they're not on their team.

    “He was looking for trouble” is a dumb take. I am not looking for a car crash when I wear my seatbelt. If a woman brings a gun with her to walk down a seedy street, she isn’t looking to get attacked.
    In both cases the person is taking preventative measures against possible harm. Kyle wasn’t seeking exhilaration, he was helping people. He also didn’t think he was invincible, as he fled the confrontations instead of meeting them head on.
    Kyle had a history of community service. He enrolled in cadet classes, was a lifeguard, took medical classes and brought medical supplies with him to the riot. He clearly wasn’t seeking excitement, and clearly understood the inherent dangers of the place he was attending.
    Also, if Kyle had left the gun at home, he would have been killed. If Kyle had left himself home, some other guy would have been killed. Because it wasn’t Kyle that started this, it was the serial pedophile. And it wasn’t the gun that the serial pedophile took offense to, it was his mistaken belief that Kyle was putting out his dumpster fires. You solve nothing by taking Kyle’s rights away.
    You admit it’s legal to attend the protest with a gun in the state of Wisconsin. You also admit there is no evidence that Kyle threatened anyone. You have nothing to back your assertions, and you admit it. But for some reason, you must still blame the victim for doing lawful actions. Crazy.

    When I hear people still arguing to this day that Kyle committed murder it's always because, in their opinion, carrying a gun like he did should be illegal. Many times they're arguing that it is, despite the judge explaining very clearly why that was not the case (whether it was MEANT to pertain only to hunting doesn't matter if the law is worded badly). People, it doesn't matter what you think the law SHOULD be. What matters is what it says. Thanks for a good, informative video :)

US Marshals and federal employees were blinded, concussed, and burned. That is the backdrop of Kenosha being burned and destroyed WITH NO MEANINGFUL RESPONSE FROM LAW ENFORCEMENT!! The government had a responsibility to call in the National Guard and ENFORCE the curfew. Had the done so Kyle and everyone else would not have been there. People living in Kenosha were leaving their homes and hiding in bomb shelters in churches built and meant for nuclear attacks in the 1950.

      Nelo Wolf No actually that’s not correct. It muddies the water of self defense when you bring a rifle out in the streets and play police during antifa riots. There is a reason why the police did not over enforce that night and do you know why? It’s obviously strategic in the sense of not escalating riots further. So when a civilian, “legal child” thinks he can outperform and maneuver the police and breaks curfew knowingly, then you’ve now muddied the situation of what self defense is and have added an additional factor to the chaos. ie pointing your weapon at a rioter in the street is a legitimate provocation argument, that being said you still must defend yourself but it is MUCH different than shooting to kill to defend your home or property. If you think that there is nothing wrong with vigilantism against police will and orders then I assume you do not support the police

      A lot of things were wrong. The police were told to stand down and ordered to take no action on the rioters. This left the city of Kenosha wide open to violence and mayhem for several nights with no police or emergency services helping the citizens of Kenosha. If you you create a lawless environment and let violent criminals descend on a city and destroy it through vandalism and arson, ordinary citizens WILL STEP UP.
      Also, Joseph Rosenbaum should never have been let out of jail after raping 5 young boys, and he should not have been released from the mental hospital that morning. If you create a lawless environment, set criminals free from prison, this is the inevitable result.
      All three who were shot were in the acts of committing crimes. They were all violent felons, and the guy who pointed his gun at Kyle had an ILLEGAL weapon. Kyle did not have an "assault weapon." He had a normal rife. It is not more deadly than any other gun.

      @@schizoidmeme5470 it doesnt help that people arent watching unedited footage and arent watching court footage.
      Theres a lot of misinformation on my side of the political axis (left wing) which annoys me especially but theres also some on the right too and both sides are making irrelevent statements.
      Personally i believe rittenhouse isnt guilty but there are lessons to be learned for both sides.

    Can someone explain me why a 17 year old is doing in the middle of the crowd with a gun? I'm not being sarcastic. I'm genuinely asking.

      Are you asking why Kyle himself would feel the need to insert himself into the situation or are you asking if it was legal for him to have the gun? I really don't know the answer to the first part. From what I can gather, he was trying to help protect his family's and other people's businesses and his community since the police were not doing it. Should he have? I personally don't think so but who am I to tell someone that they can't protect their community? The second part is easy. Wisconsin law allows 16 and 17 year olds to open carry rifles. Legally, there was nothing wrong with this action. See Wisconsin statutes 29.304 and 29.593 for proof if you would like. Again, should he have? Probably not, but he certainly had the right to do so.

      My opinion is that KR wanted to play hero with some misguided idea that he was the only one who could solve the problems. Two men are dead.

      @@DoctorSmartyPants Its lawful for 16 and 17 year olds to posses a rifle in WI. Always has been so cope harder. The law states Minors cannot posses short barreled rifles or shotguns. The law in WI doesnt state it only applies for hunting. As a matter of fact it states minors under 16 can posses a rifle for hunting with adult supervision. The prosecution literally admitted the gun was not modified to be a short barrel rifle so it wasnt illegal to posses. Thats not an obscure technicality, its the letter of the law and they knew the charge would be thrown out. 16 year olds are allowed to posses rifles and shotguns if the barrel isnt sawed off. Anyone can read the law.
