posted by jmogYou’re the one that said it was similar to KR, which is obvious it is not.
You have the ability to create a new thread like “look at this redneck moron going to jail for murder soon” or “look, just like Arbery, let’s see if this case goes as murder”
Trying to play it off as like KR is disingenuous at best and trying to paint the KR case as not self defense which it obviously was to anyone that actually watched the video.
You won the argument
Have you ever started a thread or just look for reasons to argue ? Serious question.

Sorry that facts didn’t line up with your statement about it being just like KR case.

Lol I said similar Jesus Christ is it that seriu
I remember when jmog and gut argued on the meme thread for 13 pages. Please stop. This could have been its own thread but whatever.
As for the situation being discussed, it's a tough one. I think it's a bad shoot, but I see the arguments for the opposite. I don't think the guy should've gone back in the house to bring out the gun. I don't think the guy should have tried to grab it. I also don't think when the guy with the gun got distance between them the other guy was a threat anymore.
The lack of worry by any party once the shoot happened was weird af, too. Why is his lady recording not freaking out while he's laying dead on the front porch?

And they aren’t similar. The only similarity is that a gun was involved.

a few things:
In Texas, all those things dont matter. Dude was told to leave and didnt. He is now taking a dirt knap.
As for the creepiness of it all, thought the same thing and the rabbit hole on twitter thinks its all fake.
Like I said, I think it's a bad shoot. Legality is another story. I don't think it's fake as I've seen news articles written about the situation (I haven't read them, but have seen the links).
I'm pro-gun, pro-self defense. I'm not a fan of some of the loonier on the right strutting over these shootings or encouraging this kid to do so. His best action would to be to become as forgotten as possible as quickly as possible, and not let himself be used.

Kid isn’t a hero, shouldn’t have had to do what he did, but I fully support him suing everyone. Get it done and then go dark. The media should pay for their bullshit.

It doesn't help that cause to voluntarily appear on the evening "news" programs.

I don’t disagree. But alot of the defamation happened well before his acquittal. Not a public person at all, maybe now, but not then.

The fact the defense will (likely) be self-defense?

Agreed.
He’s not a hero, but should sue the media’s pants off then become a nobody.
He wanted to be a paramedic, do that.
Something tells me the whole "do cable news TV, planning to meet Trump, having dipshit sect of the right-wing want him as an intern" stuff means that if/when he becomes a nobody, it's not going to be because he decided to. Dude has a segment of the population fapping to him right now and knows it.posted by jmog

You’re not wrong.
The other kid with the MAGA hat that the Native American was yelling at did it with the far right “fapping” at him though. I don’t even remember that kids name or what he is doing now other than he sued and settled for a lot.
Am I mistaken, or did NBC try throwing this dude under the bus by saying he was following them on his own and they had nothing to do with it?

Really? Who has standing to bring a case? What are their damages?
Apparently woke students at ASU are trying to get Rittenhouse suspended. Not sure what community/school standard he violated. I mean, c'mon, he's just there to keep your safe spaces safe.
Also, LOL at Rittenhouse wanting to go into law enforcement.
