I can and will concede this, I've not had a riotous mob in my backyard, fair enough.

No DQ, please focus,. That is exactly what happened. Your reply serves as an example of someone with a weak argument choosing or desiring to direct or otherwise change the narrative.

Yeah, having the knife, not following commands, having felony warrants and fighting the police will sometimes get you shot. Also, the police just didn't show up at his son's birthday party (oh heavens no). They responded to a 911 call involving family violence. Blake, a very bad guy (just ask his sexual assault victim) used incredibly bad judgment and will pay for it the remainder of his life. Oh well.

Go back and watch the video… you got to be kidding me.

You think he us innocent and no justification?

Wow. Seriously?

Prosecution team are idiots. He will be found not guilty.

Did I say innocent? No charges were ultimately filed against cops or the perp.

Mistrial?

I've said before, the first rule is not to bring a skateboard to a gunfight.

2nd, I watched part of the defendant's testimony yesterday, and although he is just a kid, he did a very good job on the stand. He was believable, vulnerable, and sincere. I think it was an error in judgement to be there that night with a gun, but who here can say they didn't make bad judgement calls as adolescents. Heck, I'm lucky I survived my 20's, let alone my teen years.

Unfortunately, people died and there will be (and have already been) consequences to his actions. Will he be convicted of murder, I doubt it, it was clearly self defense, but they will convict him of some lesser offense - reckless endangerment, unlawful possession, etc.

Will also say, I also believe the prosecutor knows he has lost, and has acted in a manner to get a mistrial. He has political aspirations and a mistrial gives him the chance to say how vigorously he pursued the case, and it was the judge's bias that caused his loss. The entire trial was a sham and should have been plead out before calling the first juror.

You are correct, exact same situation. The peacefully assembled law abidding citizens where mearly trying to do a citizens arrest of Rittenhouse for a misdemeanor Minor in Pocession

You keep calling this a "POLICING SITUATION", if the police, state troopers and/or the national guard had taken care of the riots, we wouldn't even be talking about this. But they were just sitting by and letting the city burn, the businesses burn and letting innocent people get beaten and robbed of their livelihood. The WOKE politicians are afraid to do their job, which is to protect the people that live in the city, along with there businesses that are there. So don't call it what it isn't as the police didn't do squat.

All that matters is how many threats the jury receives.

Today:

Come on Thump, you can't pint to this. He already said it was a separate issue. We should all be able to pick & choose so our fantasies can all be fulfiled.

Once again, the Grizz nails it.

Here’s how WOKE the media and a lot of people are

Anyone recall when 5 police officers were killed in Dallas at a BLM rally?

BLM took ZERO heat over that….

So woke, none of them wanted BLM pissed at them

Makes me sick

Why he was there is immaterial. Why he had a gun is immaterial. The ONLY question that matters in this trial is if he was defending himself?

The prosecutor could also try him again unless the judge declares the prosecutor caused a mistrial deliberately which is very rare.

I believe, and I am not an attorney, but the defense asked for a Mistrial with Prejudice, so if that is the case, files could not retry of refile the case.

Correct. And to your point, they already got the curfew violation charge tossed out.

If I could speak to that Binger weasel, I’d ask where his happy [censored] was at while his city was being torched.

The prosecutor is trying to throw the trial so it wont be on his record , and the judge isn't having it...

or so he gets another shot at it. not sure witch yet.

I’m not one either but you are correct.

What did I say other then they all should have died LOL, I think the kids a modern day hero myself and I know it’s hard to believe but I hold strong feeling towards the dipchits on here crying foul play. A few guys posting on this thread need to be kicked out of Texas and thr nut sack beat with a bat wrapped in barbed wire so they can’t reproduce.

I could have swore I heard the judge tell the prosecutor that he violated Kyle's civil rights yesterday and surely that's grounds for a mistrial...I thought he was fixing to toss the case with prejudice right there but nope...
