Another narrative collapses.

I hope Rittenhouse spend the rest of his days paying off his lawyers from this trial and the pending lawsuits.

I think he should take his machine gun with him when discussing these matters. those guys can be pretty intimidating.

As the NRA is in bankruptcy, possible dissolution and definitely disarray, this will be interesting to see who takes this and frames it.

Well, thank God my State ain’t open carry because here is how the people who tell me to stick my mask up my ass are framing it.. In so many words.. All armed right wingers are essentially cops & all Left Wingers are potential rioters & arsonists.

What did Woody Allen say about Nazis and baseball bats, maybe its time the other half of country needs to exercise/know their 2nd Amd rights.

Let’s synchronize our watches! On Facebook it is now, exactly, Second Amendment O’Clock.

Give a young kid power and authority and a lethal weapon and this is what happens. Insane that he was just allowed to wander the streets like that while having his ego massaged by the media (there are interviews with him on the night).

Thanks for posting that Jimbo. Much to digest there. Greenwauld does make a very powerful case. I'll be interested to the responses to his video, both here and elsewhere.

I agree with G. I'd like to see a different perspective about his statements, but so far his arguments seem really strong.
It is really a disgrace that most if not all of the media have become so partisan everywhere. And a lot of people behave like media fans.

Give a young kid power and authority and a lethal weapon and this is what happens. Insane that he was just allowed to wander the streets like that while having his ego massaged by the media (there are interviews with him on the night). I would say it's insane that rioters were allowed to walk the streets and tear shit up whilst the authorities stood idly by. It's not as if Rittenhouse was the only person carrying a weapon that night that's for sure. Of course he should have stayed the hell away but when order breaks down like that in a country like the US not everybody will just stand idly by. I followed the trial a bit and Greenwald mirrors my opinion. Imo there was a strong case for self defence and the evidence and videos back that up so I'm not surprised at the verdict. Did you know for example that Rosenbaum (a career criminal and child rapist btw) threatened Rittenhouse saying something like, "If I see you again tonight I will kill you" earlier that evening and this was corroborated by two witnesses? Greenwald is also right about the media who once again have utterly disgraced themselves and who have been spinning their own narrative from the beginning. This is a fundamental problem of course because when so many people fall for their narrative when reality finally intrudes as it has here they obviously can't understand and therefore lose their shit. How could this "white supremacist" punk get away with it? Etc. They are essentially living in an alternative reality.
