Scum Makes Bail

Guys, look at the pic in the OP. The dude is wearing a tie and has Republican hair: he's innocent. Quit picking on Kyle.

If we had to live through another Trump admin that would probably serve as his offical portrait when he became DHS Secretary.
 
Non-political? Ok.

Inbred illegally aquires an AR-15, goes to a peace rally in another state, kills 2, cripples one. Heads across the state line like he was in an old western. Gets busted, sent back, and set free by the Klan and Neo-nazis.

I knew the MyPillow guy was Trump's bitch, but I was a little shocked that Ricky Schroder was involved.
He didn't seem the type.
That's about as fair and balanced as I expected to see here.
I'll be very interested to see how this one plays out. It looks to me like stupid met a couple of stupid's and only one stupid walked away. Such a sad waste of life.
 
It's pretty obvious the bail was set high enough to make sure he WOULDN'T make bail.

1. He is a flight risk. He had to be extradited.
2. Giving someone that murders on video bail, would be like giving OJ bail after the Bronco slow speed chase.. (OJ DIDN'T get bail.
3. It's a perversion of the system to allow Klansmen to post the bail for someone that's not even related to them.
Would you be cool with cartels posting bail for drug dealers?
Then obviously the DA and the judge fucked up.
 
Be interesting to see how

I'd be down with that as long as the trial was held within two weeks. The idea that the state can simply hold you in perpetuity while they dick around is punishment without conviction.

agreed. And that's pretty much what happens with a lot of black youth in this country.


^probably the most famous of such egregious examples.

held in Rikers for 3 years, allegedly stealing a backpack, never saw a trial.

but really it's their fault for not having bootstraps, though.

Even though it was the Reader's Digest condensed version, it was completely accurate.

Rittenhouse DID illegally acquire the rifle.

He was at a rally in a state that he did not reside in.

He DID head back across the state line in order to escape culpability. (The only time I've seen that work, was an old cowboy movies.)

They did go back and return him to face his crimes.

Had it not been for the racists and neo-Nazi groups to raise the money, (by the way, that was $2 million CASH bail. No bail bondsman needed.) His little ass would still be getting pounded in jail.

Yup. The weapon was illegally aquired.
That he didn't reside in the state where the rioting occurred is irrelevant.
The wiki article states that he spoke to police after the shooting.
Yes, he did return to his home across the state line.
I don't care who posted his bail, it's irrelevant.

What's relevant are the events leading up to the shooting, and why the fellow was there with a rifle. The event as described in the wiki article isn't cut and dried.
Your version of the event is hate based, it's empty posturing designed to produce an emotional conviction. I'll wait and see what they jury has to say.

Wiki?

Didn't the National Enquirer have a better read?

They're more credible. 🙄

Too bad his victims won't get a jury.

I just came to post about the poor kid from Riker's. He killed himself btw https://www.nytimes.com/2015/06/09/...or-3-years-without-trial-commits-suicide.html

That's such a sad story. 🙁
 
Isn't this the kid who was punched and or hit with a skateboard before opening fire?

If so... I'm actually surprised with how many people seem to forget that. Politics must make you forget facts. He will walk and rightfully so.... Unless the jury is like some of you anandtechers.

Yet it's ok when antifa goes across state lines and hits people with skateboards that's ok of course. At least be consistent with your gobbygook.

I never goto a protest without an ar-15
 
Why do some of you keep referring to the event where this took place a demonstration, rally, or protest? It was a riot. Millions of dollars worth of damage, business burned to the ground, shootings, looting, arson, assault. Those things make it a riot.
 
This kid will get off by claiming he was radicalized by conservative media. Then he will go on to become a radical right-wing pundit.
 
Rosenbaum shouldn’t have engaged rittenhouse. IMO Rosenbaum came looking for a fight not to protest.

I don’t believe KR will be convicted of murder but I could see a manslaughter conviction.

Odd how evangelicals and Ricky Schroeder of all people (a known holy roller though) have thrown in with the neo Nazis and militia clowns to defend brainwashed vigilantism. What's one more issue of agreement right?

How many people here think this support still would have happened if the shooter was a black kid, and the people he shot rowdy trump supporters? Anyone?

As if backing an utter criminal like Trump doesn't completely obliterate the 'party of law and order' horseshit they spew, coming to the rescue of those who go looking for a kill (again) just emphasizes it. Reminder: right wing militia groups are the single largest domestic threat to Americans. Not antifa, certainly not anything BLM. Sorry magats, but like Raffensperger says, numbers don't lie. You want to win this argument? Start telling your crazy friends to calm down and get a fucking life.

That's a new one. Are you claiming he was protesting?
Got any evidence for that?

The info I have suggests he was there as a "medic" and or "security". Don't know why he wasn't with a group for protection - but he clearly didn't know how violent and blood thirsty the actual "protestors" were on the streets.

He was there to kill people and he did. There was no other reason for him to go there.
 
Disgusting - Financed by "Christians" Ricky Schroder and the grifting owner of MyPillow.

It appears that the answer is clear. Unlike others, Rittenhouse killed "liberals". They approve of his actions, and feel that he shouldn’t have to pay any penalty for those actions. That is going to be much harder to find biblical justification for.

He went there to protect property. Property. Which to him/them is worth more than a human life. So if you threaten to destroy property, or are even just a party to it then your life is expendable.

How about "Christians" support murderers with thoughts and prayers - and send their money to the needy like they used to

The people sending money for his defense are supporting armed vigilanteism.

The trick is to go pistol mode with the brace. Sure you always use both hands when shooting, but this way it's easier to have a hand free for that baton or tiki torch.

Republicans are making a lot of money off these idiots, starting to wonder if I should get in on that action. Is it time for me to design the world's first tiki baton?
