Do you ever get tired of being wrong?
They weren't shot because they were rioting though.
But, you must admit...rioting does place you in a more dangerous situation than staying at home. It is interesting all that the killed or injured individuals all had criminal records. You can mourn their loss but, perhaps you should be more concerned about the all damage the rioters did to innocent people.
You may have a point if they had gotten killed for rioting.
What about molestation of a 10 year old boy??
If you are physically and verbally threatening someone life it is possible to die from your actions no matter where you are.
It is if you threatened and chase a guy willing to protect his/herself. This case just set precedence. If you are a mob then you don’t have a right to chase and kick, grab or point a gun at anyone without consequences. The right verdict got handed down today.
Looks like you are wrong. Not sure why you believe that load of crap. You are wrong on this one.
You should hide for a while.
Yeah sure. Wait for the criminal to get the gun or kick the ever living shit out of you. Maybe until death. Why are his rights less important than theirs? So dumb.
You are distorting the truth on what happened then defending your distortion, If you watched the trial along with the videos you see that he didn't shot until they started calling him out and chasing him. He was knocked to the ground, a skateboard was swung at his head, one of the "victims" pointed a gun in his face but according to you he was only scared and fired indiscriminately.
Where do you get your information? The surviving man shot by Rittenhouse admitted he put his gun in Rittenhouse's face before Rittenhouse shot him. The judge wasn't the best in my view but biased only that he believed a defendant was innocence until proven to be convicted. You better hope if you go to trial your judge takes the same position for you.
I feel like the point Anthony Huber's family made in response to the verdict is valid, especially this part:
Yep. It was all peaceful until Young Whitey Gun Boy showed up.
That goes both ways. By not prosecuting the other two attackers, vandals or rioters sends the same message. While I agree it was a dumb move to show up at 17 to a protest/riot. He was still within his rights.
Just so you understand what self defense actually is.
| self-defense n. the use of reasonable force to protect oneself or members of the family from bodily harm from the attack of an aggressor, if the defender has reason to believe he/she/they is/are in danger. Self-defense is a common defense by a person accused of assault, battery or homicide. The force used in self-defense may be sufficient for protection from apparent harm (not just an empty verbal threat) or to halt any danger from attack, but cannot be an excuse to continue the attack or use excessive force. Examples: an unarmed man punches Allen Alibi, who hits the attacker with a baseball bat. That is legitimate self-defense, but Alibi cannot chase after the attacker and shoot him or beat him senseless. If the attacker has a gun or a butcher knife and is verbally threatening, Alibi is probably warranted in shooting him. Basically, appropriate self-defense is judged on all the circumstances. Reasonable force can also be used to protect property from theft or destruction. Self-defense cannot include killing or great bodily harm to defend property, unless personal danger is also involved, as is the case in most burglaries, muggings or vandalism. |
I ordinarily don't waste my time replying to you but I'll make an exception in this case...
That's not exactly what they said. The three people he shot wouldn't have driven to his house to confront him if he just stayed home.
That’s like a person getting car jacked wouldn’t happen if they stayed home or didn’t own a car.
That same logic applies to everyone who was present at those riots. It means nothing.
