No, you sue everyone who defamed you by calling you a murderer, white supremacist, etc without being found guilty by a jury of your peers.8 points

Judge should have given him his rifle back and sent him out the front door. I bet the crowd would disperse in a hurry.8 points

NOT GUILTY ALL COUNTS!!!! Kyle Rittenhouse Acquitted On All Charges | ZeroHedge6 points
-
My good buddy and fellow member bigun has been having some mobility problems that were getting progressively worse lately. He and I usually touch base via text or phone on a daily basis but he dropped off the radar a couple of weeks ago. I got a message from his daughter about four days later telling me he was in the hospital and was improving so decided to wait until I knew more before posting anything. He is now out of the hospital and in a rehab facility so he's still making progress. I'm sure he would appreciate any prayers, well wishes or any other encouragement sent his way. The facility just lifted their 'no visitor' policy this week so I was able to pay him a short visit yesterday.5 points

I'm sure Joy "White Tears" Reid has some more lies and racist comments to embolden the rioters tonight. Too bad Kenosha can't send the bill for damages to MSNBC and the rest to pay for the damages. Although nothing can repair the damages they've done to this generation of youth I'm afraid. May God bless and protect Rittenhouse and his family and may peace be with them.5 points

I spent the last 3 weeks watching/listening to a solid 3/4 of the proceedings via the Rekieta stream. It was an excellent and extremely illuminating insight into this case in specific and the legal system as a whole. For me the biggest takeaway is that if the prosecution was willing to go that far and engage in such blatant misconduct when the cameras were on, what are they getting away with when the cameras are off? It was really quite sickening.4 points

Then that should include Joe Biden. He called him a white supremacist a few days after the arrest.4 points

I hope he sues the Hell outta MSM. They did everything they could to paint him as evil and get him convicted.4 points

The jury got it 100% correct. Now Kyle should sue everyone his lawyers can pin a lawsuit against....JMHO4 points

Just another thing that’s factually incorrect. They were assailants. Kyle Rittenhouse was found not guilty on the grounds of self defense. That means he was defending himself from assailants and he was the victim of their violent assaults.3 points

I’ve noticed the media keeps trying to add a racial component to this story. Probably half the people I know think Rittenhouse killed black people. Not that it makes any difference to me, but man they sure try hard to incite a race war.3 points

Oh, it's our fault. Should have slapped the #### out of you whippersnappers like our parents did to us3 points

I’m really hoping that this red pills a lot of folks who didn’t pay a whole lot of attention while prosecutors pulled this kind of #### on folks from the other end of town because “they were probably guilty of something”. They can and will go after y’all just the same if’n they decide it’s what they want to do.2 points

I'm of the same mind as the others, he needs to sue the hell out of the MSM for not only the blatant lies, but for the slander that is still going on even after the verdict. As news organizations it is their duty to find out the facts before they broadcast their stories. But instead of retractions, they are doubling down with the white supremacist bs, and some even throwing Trump into it. I wonder what happened to the phrase "allegedly" when accusing a person of a crime in a story when no conviction has happened, it seemed to have been missing quite often.2 points

Folks are going on and on about Rittenhouse suing the media and such, or wanting him to talk to this person or go on that person’s podcast and I’m scared for the kid. His case was super important for all of us with regards to the subject of self defense and I am ecstatic that he won. But, my cause is mine. It was HIS LIFE and I just want that kid to disappear and go have a shot at a normal life. I’m afraid that he’s gonna get shoved into #### and turned into another Zimmerman. If that happens, the the ####bags who tried to destroy his life still win, but it’ll be folks on “our” side who give it to them.2 points

There are several problems with Electric Vehicles beyond a lack of charging stations and range. 1) Storage of electricity is VERY expensive. That battery pack is the most expensive component, and like a gas engine, it will wear out. Unlike a gas engine, it is much more difficult (and expensive) to rebuild that battery pack. 2) Transportation of electricity is expensive, Power loss over long distances is significant even with the best high-tension lines. And you can't just carry it around like a 5-gallon can of gas or a tank truck. 3) Production of electricity still relies on coal, natural gas, or oil account for about 60% of US electrical production. Nuclear is another 20%. All 'renewable' sources account for the final 20%. The current administration is trying to kill at least 30% of the current source of electricity. while increasing the demand (and thus the cost!). Gasoline is with us for a LONG time to come. At least until we all have a Mister Fusion at home or in our Deloreans.2 points

Same here. I remember back in the 70's people would react to the weakened live virus that they used, but modern vaccines don't use live virus anymore. One might get a variety of influenza that isn't covered by the vaccine, but that could happen with or without the shot. It seems like great insurance to me.2 points

After getting a bad case of flu about 25 years ago I started getting the shot every year. Never had a reaction other than a sore arm for a day or so and have never caught the flu again. May be luck on both cases but I'll take it.2 points

And we have subs that can launch from any ocean in the world, like they and Russia do, so it isn't as big a threat as they make it seem, but we should not have been blindsided by the fact that they had it, if our alphabet agencies would concentrate on our enemies instead of parents against CRT, and white supremacist Trump supporting terrorists, we could have been forewarned.2 points

This was my first stab at a flap holster as well as my first try at lacing. You'll notice an extra hole as I severely misjudged where the snap should be. Frustrating, but trial and error is about the only way a hard headed guy like me can learn.1 point

This is exactly why I donate to groups like the Innocence Project. I've seen cases where the prosecutors not only withheld evidence from the defense but actually fabricated evidence to get a conviction.1 point

Now that we are on to the defamation issue, I believe Rittenhouse would have a case if the statute of limitations hasn't passed yet. This post is based on TN law and WI (and other state's) laws are similar, but likely have a different statute of limitations period. Libel (written) and Slander (spoken) are both part of defamation. To prove defamation, it's pretty simple: 1. a false statement (like, "he's a white supremacist"); 2. caused damage to the plaintiff (this will be hard to prove for Rittenhouse, in that any single statement by any single person would be difficult to prove caused damage beyond what others were saying); 3. the false statement was made negligently, with reckless disregard for the truth, or with actual malice (the standard varies a bit with public and private individuals). All of those appear to apply here, but again, proving that any particular false statement (for example, by Biden) caused Rittenhouse's damage might be difficult, but I could certainly see a jury finding that Rittenhouse's reputation was damaged by some of those specific comments. The main concern is whether RIttenhouse has waited too long to bring the claim. In TN, you have to file the claim within 6 months of the statement. Statements have been made since the day the shooting occurred (and continue today), but when was the damage done? So, it would be difficult to pinpoint what specific statement caused what specific damage. That said, this criminal case was (in my view) very instructive to anyone who was willing to keep up with the details. A group of lawyers on YouTube were live-streaming the entire case and commenting in real time. Those videos are still up and provide a LOT of explanation about what was going on. This case had some bad lawyering on both sides, but I know I wouldn't want one of my trials televised and other lawyers critiquing me as it happened. No one does everything perfectly, but there were a few glaring mistakes on both sides. If you are interested in detailed analysis of the trial, I would encourage you to go look at the Rekieta Law videos. They did an excellent job of covering the trial.1 point

Thomas Binger learned nothing from the Rust/Alec Baldwin fiasco ("unloaded" gun with human finger on the trigger can go bang & kill people.) Surprised the judge didn't put a stop to this behavior right away.1 point
