coming under attack during a night of protests
The case comes at a time when many other states are expanding self-defense laws and loosening permitting requirements for carrying guns in public. The U.S. Supreme Court, meanwhile, seems poised to strike down a stricter New York gun-permitting law. Both gun sales and gun violence have separately been on the rise.
“That’s kind of the very issue that the sides seem to be fighting about in this trial,” Buell said. “Clearly, the law doesn’t have the answer.”The major change to U.S. self-defense law in recent years, he said, has been the advent of “stand your ground” laws, which remove a requirement to retreat from confrontations before using deadly force.
“In certain states, it seems as though legislators are using the events of 2020 to expand the ability for people to threaten others in public with a gun and to kill them and escape justice,” she said.
The first amendment gives us the right to peacefully assemble, but be prepared when right wing thugs show up with assault rifles. How is that peaceful?
BLM just want to attack people, that's why they are mad some kid defended himself.
Kyle can go hideout with MyPillow guy...
He could've just brought a plastic bag or skateboard for self defense
Let’s go Brandon
Why not just have the gun manufactures go to all the high schools in the USA and on the first day of school give them each a gun and teach them how to use it. Instead of fights with fists it will be running gun battles in the schools hallways.
These people are the problem. Grown men should put an end to this so that young men don't have to.
More fear the opposite is true
A white guy shot white people in self defense... none of this has anything to do with the racial divide!
Next his lawyer will say he’s an accomplished surgeon
If there aren't left wingers rioting every time they don't get their way, there's no problem. Rittenhouse Kenosha
This JUDGE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED! HOW CAN ANYONE HAVE JUSTICE WHEN THE JUDGE IS NOT JUST?
Some (anyone paying attention) fear dangerous encounters.
BLM attaching their cause to a situation where a white dude shot 3 other white guys, killing two of them? 🤔
Don’t most Americans want people to have the right to bear arms? The right to have guns? This is what happens when everyone has guns. How can we be surprised? 🤷♀️

Jury of 7 women, 5 men picked in Kyle Rittenhouse trial7 women and 5 men selected out of pool of 18 to be jurors in the homicide trial of Kyle Rittenhouse. Rittenhouse himself randomly drew 6 juror numbers out of a tumbler, excluding them from deliberations and setting the panel of 12. Nothing to see here… definitely no fuckery going on at this totally normal abortion of justice. free innocent boy I get they're anonymous and randomized but still, a defendent drawing their own jurors doesn't sit right with me - both for and against the defendent. He's facing a murder charge and they're having him play a macabre little game.

Always assume it’s loaded This guy knows what he’s doing,everyone knows you point a gun at someone with your finger on the trigger… So it's not nice to bring an AR-15 someplace public and point it at people? Does it frighten them? Does it needlessly escalate matters? It it potentially dangerous (particularly if the darn thing is actually loaded rather than just a courtroom demo)?

Kyle Rittenhouse trial Day 10 ends with closing arguments: Key takeawaysA Wisconsin jury will begin deliberating the fate of Kyle Rittenhouse on Tuesday after hearing starkly different theories of the same evidence, with a prosecutor portraying the teenager as a trouble-seeking active shooter to counter defense claims he shot three men, two fatally, in self-defense. The Kenosha County Circuit Court jury was sent home for the night after hearing hours of closing arguments in the high-profile homicide trial and getting more than 30 pages of instructions from Judge Bruce Schroeder. Schroeder told the jury they will begin their deliberations Tuesday after 12 of the 18 panelists who heard evidence in the case are randomly selected to decide Rittenhouse's fate. If that poor excuse for a lawyer had pointed that rifle in MY courtroom, I would have called a mistrial and sent him to jail for a long, long time for contempt.
