The lawyers for both sides are also officers of the court. Their job is to represent their clients zealously, within the formal rules of the Code of Professional Conduct. The belief is that justice can best be achieved if each side's case is vigorously presented by competent legal counsel

So he's in the wrong for doing so and will be punished. But, the two people who died and the one injured (all white by the way) were well deserving of getting shot, they were trying to kill him.



Some people here think just because that kid had a weapon as a minor which is illegal, it means he automatically forfeited his right to self defense


A few years ago I investigated a shooting between two convicted gangsters. Gang #1 shot gang #2 in self defense. Gang #2 died. Gang #1 went back to prison but not for the murder, but for being a prohibited possessor (aka possessing a firearm as a convicted gangster).


Mind you this is a deep blue state California with way stricter gun law than purple'ish state with laxer gun law like WI

This is the problem with open carry. People who carry openly can be seen as threats. No one would have paid any attention to Kyle had he not been carrying a rifle and playing cop.

No one asked him to be there.
Tell that to David Dorn, the unarmed, Retired, black St. Louis Police captain. He was murdered for trying to protect a business.

It's incidents exactly like David Dorn's which have shown people they need to arm themselves from these Black Lives matter and antifa protesters and rioters. They are attacking innocent people, they are harming us, destroying our businesses, wiping out many people's jobs, they are the enemy, not the police. Once you get that thru your head you might start sounding rational. Until then, you are just another foolish, dangerous O'Biden zombie.

Your problem is, you ignore everything that has happened over the past three months of rioting and destruction. You pretend these are peaceful protesters, thinking that if we do not offer a threat to them they will just bang their drums and recite innocent chants, and leave us alone.

The Democrat left are violent, to include BLM, antifa and the people they and our elected Democrats are inspiring, are a dire direct and ongoing threat to all of us.

Sorry to break it to you, but "burning it all down" is exactly what Black Lives Matter Marxists say they intend to do. There has never been a peaceful Marxist revolt, and this one is no different.

BLM and antifa ARE the lowlifes. It's the simpletons who read the words Black Lives Matter, and think BLM are an altruistic peaceful organization which only seeks to help blacks, who are under the gross delusion that BLM are peaceful, kind and caring people. They aren't, they are radical anti-America, law and order hating Marxists and anarchists.

BLM leader: If change doesn’t happen, then ‘we will burn down this system’

The people running BLM are lowlifes and thugs and violent Marxists

Thumbs up How to Donate to Kyle Rittenhouse Defense Fund

Here is a link to the statement released by Pierce Bainbridge, Kyle's legal team:

Pierce Bainbridge to Represent 17 Year Old Kyle Rittenhouse Wrongfully Charged With Murder After Acting in Self-Defense in Kenosha, WI

Kyle's legal fees and costs will provided through donations to #FightBack, a Non-Profit Foundation formed "to protect American citizens from having their Rights trampled on by state and local governments that are more concerned about appeasing mobs than protecting the Rights of law-abiding citizens."

I expect many people are going to donate to Kyle's Defense!

Yeah, you know you're at a BLM protest apparently when some white guy continuously yells the N-word and nobody takes him aside.

They have GOT to distance themselves from the fauxtesters like that guy who are just out to fight and cause trouble but instead they end up defending guys like him.

The latest disinformation campaign(Marxists pretending to "fact check") by the Leftists is that Antifa doesn't exist, and that BLM doesn't coordinate or plan these riots.

Market Watch and Associated Press have been pwned by these Marxist organizations. Even after they covered Antifa events, they claim it doesn't exist (this is the real definition of Gaslighting). The following article is good to read in whole:
https://www.redstate.com/streiff/202...not-exist-lie/
Quote:
..a virtual media industry has sprung up to defend them. There are two reasons for this. First and foremost, the lion’s share of the media is broadly sympathetic to the aims and tactics of Antifa. They are anti-American, they get a vicarious thrill from the violence that is associated with Antifa actions, and, if you read the articles lionizing the group, there is no small amount of homo-eroticism at work with pudgy dorks in the average newsroom trying to get a Grindr message from one of the heroic, masked, man-bun-sporting, black-clad street fighters by giving them favorable media coverage and being part of the struggle themselves. Secondly, since Trump is opposed to them, they must be supported because OrangeManBad.

In fact, despite covering Antifa, the media is also adamant that Antifa doesn’t really exist. Again, for the same two reasons. If they don’t exist, then the government can’t target them, and President Trump can be ridiculed for ordering a crackdown on a group that doesn’t exist.

from what I have seen I have to agree. One video with Rittenhouse and companions vs the "protesters" you can hear BLM people say "let's burn the police station down".

Despite the left trying to spin this, BLM marchers who protest peacefully don't get shot by people like Rittenhouse. But news report after news report we see marchers leaving a city burnt and looted and people assaulted.

They're going to drop or downgrade the charges after the election or when it gets cold enough.

They do not have a case and frankly it wouldn't surprise me at all if the city ends up having to pay a civil settlement if they keep this dragging on. Especially if it leaks out that there was political pressure to charge him.

P.S. Does it bother you at all that the prosecutors in many of these cities are picking and choosing whom to charge and whom to let off the hook? I mean this is one of the legitimate issues of BLM...equal treatment under the law.
