Turns out the police department lied about that train rape in Philly. The whole “no one intervened or called the police” part of the police report? Complete fabrication.
Whether through ineptitude where an inaccurate report was leaked or actual malfeasance with the cops wanting to make a story about “see look why you need more cops!”.
Either way, utterly detestable.

I don’t think the US justice system is that fucked just yet, and Rittenhouse’s legal team has had a cavalcade of fuckups which they should’ve avoided, or at least that’s what the gun frens who are on his side are saying.

The judge presiding over Kyle Rittenhouse’s case has to be a real ratfucker to let this kid off Scott free. He took an illegal firearm over state lines and shot 3 people with it.
And he fled the scene and returned to IL. And while awaiting trial, he attended a proud boys event at a bar (while underage) and flashed the white power sign in a photo.
If this had been a black kid who took an illegal firearm to a Unite the Right rally, they’d have him in the electric chair by now.

Regardless, calling them “victims” can influence the jurors’ opinion but calling them “rioters and looters” will be received with absolute neutrality. Somehow. /s
Come on. This is America. White people have rights to shoot non whites when they feel threatened, or uncomfortable, or it’s a Tuesday, or they looked at them funny, or they didn’t look at them, or their shoes were untied, or if their shoes were tied too tight, or they looked like a “gangster”, or they were chewing with their mouth open, or if they moved their hands to quickly, or, well, you get the idea.

China’s new missile is very concerning. And it’s being marketed towards children, too. I think WWIII is upon us. I just wonder how big the death toll would be…

Elon Musk is currently the richest man in the world right now, worth almost $300 billion. On Monday alone, in a mere 24 hour period, he made like $16 billion.
A report said that a flat 2% tax on his wealth alone would be enough to literally end world hunger. Literally, a pitiable 2% on one man’s dragon horde can feed hundreds of millions to billions overnight.
How’s that trickle down economics working?

Quite a few things actually.
Quite a few things actually.
There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is no male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.
Do not judge by appearances, but judge with right judgment.
For God shows no partiality.
But if you show partiality, you are committing sin and are convicted by the law as transgressors.
Funny how conservatives tend to forget about that though.

They probably mean the kid either stole it or got it off the black market.

He bought it with his COVID cheque apparently, and because his mother I believed signed off on the 4473, it was legally his rifle. Granted, I’m not sure how I feel about S&W rifles, but an AR-15 is an AR-15 most of the time, and the difference is mainly in furniture and QC, which is why Keltec(pony) and Remington have the reputations that they do.

In more “The mask comes off” news, Ted Cruz jumps to the defense of a person’s right to be invoke Nazi gestures and imageries.
He’s blasting Merrick Garland because the latter has been focused on threats and danger to the education system, specifically an increase in physical violence against teachers.
So leave it to Cancun Cruz to see that and take offense at someone’s right to Nazi is infringed.

The plan was to just plain throw out up to 7 states delegates, making it impossible to reach the 270 Electoral College votes needed. Then have the VP declare a ‘1 state, 1 vote’ method, knowing that Republicans had 26 state’s delegates under their control.
There is nothing in the Constitution that says this is possible of course.

He lives on the statesboarder. Hard to imagine him crossing the stateline daily for you I know.
He tried to defend the area from monthlong ongoing riots because he is working in that area.
He tried to disengage.
He was fired at.
He returned fire.
Good thing noone here is the judge because we are all biased, but I agree with you on one thing. Imagine him being black and such an act of selfdefense would have been getting such a witch hunt like you do before the trail even startet.
You would be back in the age of the KKK.

My parents let me own guns when I was younger, and I have yet to shoot a single person. Hell, I have yet to misuse a gun, despite being around them my entire life.
Anyway, IIRC wasn’t he invited there by one of the local mall LARPer groups to help defend businesses? I’m pretty sure that’s what the prosecution was trying to get him on, since all the other liberal muh technicality Sorkinite horseshit stems from that.
