What evidence was not allowed in court that you think was so damning?
Do you believe the judge not allowing the prosecution to refer to the killed and injured as “victims” influenced the jury? Perhaps biased them to some degree?Anyway facepollution I enjoyed our correspondence. Be safe, well and happy!
If the answer is no, how about using actual cases where a minority is found guilty, unjustly, as your example. Otherwise it makes no sense. White guys shoots three white guys and is found innocent. This proves racism!0 -

This event was a perfect storm of bad decisions and law-making all coming together in a pressure cooker environment. You have lax laws in terms of gun control, lax policing, rioting and destruction of businesses and property, and a highly emotive central cause in terms of racial inequality. It would be easy to blame Kyle Rittenhouse for what happened, but there were many poor decisions made that night, by many people. Making Rittenhouse a scapegoat for the whole situation feels totally inadequate to me, and it's just pushing him and people who support him into the arms of the far right.0 -

This started with an AOC statement that had nothing to do with this case. And no one has grounded any of these complaints with actual arguments. Hence my comparison to the complaints by the right wing after the election.
It doesn’t bother you that the judge thought enlargement of an iPhone screen altered the images of the video? This judge was anything but partial.
And the analogy works, sorry you don't get it. The analogy is that neither the right (in the case of voter fraud) and the left (in this really long stretch about prejudicial statements) like it when the rules of procedure don't benefit them. That's the point.
and I appreciate that you are busy scanning the reddit and other boards looking for reasons why this case wasn't fair. So far was have the phrase 'victims' and now some Iphone images. If the judge is so impartial, then the prosecution should have moved for a mistrial.
Im not Hobbes and in this instance, I haven’t paid any attention to what AOC says. Rittenhouse claims someone said “kill him” yet no video or audio tape to that effect was introduced. A guy who repeatedly lied about his credentials that night, on tape, and we’re expected to believe him when he says someone said “kill him.” How convenient.

And back to your analogy, the repubs have never, to this day, entered or submitted to the court one scintilla of evidence that the election was stolen or there was widespread voter fraud that would have changed the outcome of the election. We know Rosenbaum was unarmed. We know he was approximately 4’ away from Rittenhouse when he was shot 4 times. We know the first shot dropped him like a sack of rocks and that the 4th shot was the kill shot. We know Rittenhouse was reckless when he loaded his AR15 with the type of ammo he used.

And while you're at it, make sure you give away all of your possessions to minorities and resign the job you have. Otherwise you just recognize your white privilege but you're too cowardly to do anything about it.

One thing I think we all can agree on is a 17 year old should not be legally allowed to carry an ar-15 with a 30 round mag in public. I'm very pro second amendment but that shit is just stupid.I'll ride the wave where it takes me......0

I find it odd that you assume I wanted a guilty verdict to make up for historic racial disparity. That would be absurd. I have actually never weighed in on the verdict itself. My position is that there is racial disparity within the criminal justice system. Rittenhouse benefited from being White. You, however, do not see race playing a part.

And no, I don't see how race played a part in a trial involving, basically, 4 white people.

Do you think that the defendant was proven to be guilty beyond a reasonable doubt?

or the 12 jurors who heard what the judge allowed them to hear , you mean.....
What evidence was not allowed in court that you think was so damning?
Do you believe the judge not allowing the prosecution to refer to the killed and injured as “victims” influenced the jury? Perhaps biased them to some degree?Anyway facepollution I enjoyed our correspondence. Be safe, well and happy!
Oh and this is exactly the answer to your question above. This is the left leveraging this tragedy to their own benefit... viewing every thing through the lens of race, no matter how great the pains are to get there.
And while you're at it, make sure you give away all of your possessions to minorities and resign the job you have. Otherwise you just recognize your white privilege but you're too cowardly to do anything about it. Just keep gnashing your teeth and pointing your finger while you sit on the sideline like a self righteous pussy.
I find it odd that you assume I wanted a guilty verdict to make up for historic racial disparity. That would be absurd. I have actually never weighed in on the verdict itself. My position is that there is racial disparity within the criminal justice system. Rittenhouse benefited from being White. You, however, do not see race playing a part.
So I find it odd that you read something I wrote and interpreted exactly the opposite from the way in which I wrote it. Learn to read for comprehension.
And no, I don't see how race played a part in a trial involving, basically, 4 white people.
What an odd dichotomy. You did not ask me my opinion on the verdict. Only if it applied to historic racial disparity or not.
Do you think that the defendant was proven to be guilty beyond a reasonable doubt?0 -

So if you don't think the prosecution proved its case, then why would this case be used to highlight racial disparity in the justice system? You yourself are saying the jury came back with the correct verdict
