Rittenhouse is on his way up there with his gun to quell the Rittenhouse riots.
Portland is a failed city, time to carpet bomb and rebuild. Just get Dame out first.
My sister visited there around 15 years ago and absolutely loved it.
I didn’t worry much about the trial or the outcome. All I could tell you for certain was that conservative media would either make KR a martyr or a hero, depending on the verdict. Technically you have to be dead to be a martyr, but still.
And the liberal media, prez and vp would ignore findings of fact and the will of the jury. The woke mob. You are in a cult
There's a mashup video somewhere on the internet of all the corporate media talking heads labeling Rittenhouse a vigilante, white supremacist, MAGA lover, racist, etc. in the days following the incident.

The gun might function the same, but the ammo is much more destructive than a “regular” semi auto. It wrecks havoc to a human being.
no it doesn’t. A 308, 270, 30-06 any Blackout or 9mm is worse. Hell a 22 is the deadliest round according to stats. Smfh
No clue what rounds he was using, but people act like anything coming out of an AR is the equivalent to an RPG. You can't even deer hunt with 5.56/,223 in this state due to lack of power.

May I suggest you post a pic of a Mini14 round and an AR15 round side by side. Let them tell us which causes more damage.
The muzzle velocity if a .223,Remington is about 2.5–3 times faster than a 9nm. It’s all about the kinetic energy.
The stupid is deep in here right now. Hoopster and CO are making our points for us. They would make great witnesses and assistant DA’s.This is a Ruger Mini 14. It's often referred to as a "ranch rifle" as ranchers/farmer use it to shoot varmints. This rifle is essentially the same as an AR-15. Same Ammo (.223/5.56). Same capacity (30 rounds). Same semi-auto functionality. Similar muzzle velocity. The only difference is that the AR-15 has a "tactical" look and thus those types are drawn to it. And of course everyone calls it an assault weapon. If the AR-15 is an assault weapon, then so is this Ruger Mini 14.
People have this stereotype that all gun owners are white conservatives. Not true.
I was in Portland this summer and it’s the same cool city it’s always been. Idiots like you see a few videos and salacious headlines are fall hook line and sinker. It’s hilarious actually.
Including me. I had zero interest in any home defense riffle. Now I have 2. One for me and one for my wife. I also carry(legally) which I never did until last year. People are nuts today. When my wife got her car broken into with her standing 20 feet from it and the guy had a soulless look on his face. It tends to change things. I had a gun pointed at me by some crazy dude in road rage.
It’s not about the gun. It’s about the ammo. I’ve made this point for years here. You are too focused on what the gun looks like. That said, there are reasons for the tactical accoutrements, correct? They are not just for show.This is a Ruger Mini 14. It's often referred to as a "ranch rifle" as ranchers/farmer use it to shoot varmints. This rifle is essentially the same as an AR-15.

It's interesting topic/thought. The car jackings and theft here are out of control. The main sportscaster had his car stolen in the Blues parking lot last week. But what's safer: fumbling for your gun in the box or just putting your hands up and getting out of the car ASAP

If you're keeping the gun in a box, I'd argue that you shouldn't even have with you. Now the thief has your car and your boxed gun.
That is outstanding.Stricter Gun Laws Less Popular in U.S.
Americans' 52% support for stricter gun laws is the lowest since 2014, and the 19% who favor a ban on possession of handguns is the lowest on record.
"Americans support for stricter gun control has fallen five percentage points to 52 %, the lowest reading since 2014." The Top end for stricter laws was 1990. Since then it has, for the most part, trended downward.
I don't worry too much about home invasions, but the car jackings here are rampant. That's the biggest threat to get shot here at the moment
