I think he has at least has 2 cases of self-defense justified and possibly a 3rd. But don't be so quick to embrace the kid yet, there is a video of him punching a female in a fight with another girl and it does appear to be him but it's missing a lot of context. The optics are not good when you are punching a woman, ie. the guy that punched two women attacking him at the hotdog stand in Hollywood. It shouldn't take away from what happened in Kenosha but it's going to affect his character as this kid who cleaned up graffiti and put out a dumpster fire.

If it's one thing the left can teach us, don't make a hero out of a zero so quickly.
TBH I would say that whether or not his actions in other fights on the night are justified is irrelevent for what he's been charged with. So far as I can see, 5 out of the 6 charges relate to the shooting of the guys that attacked him on the ground and out of those, only charge 6 doesn't relate to a self defence, defence, charge 6 being possession of the firearm by someone under 18. To that end, if he can show self defence, 5 out of the 6 charges should go away. Personally, as an outsider not only to the case but the country, I have to feel him being charged is pollitically motivated. I'm not familiar with US laws, but purely from the video, the guy was being attacked on the ground and had no choice but to defend himself. I don't want to say too much in case it's seen as prejudicial to the casse against him. However, I personally believe the shooting was justified from what I saw.

Rittenhouse had his extradition hearing today as scheduled via Zoom meeting from the juvenile detention center in Vernon Hills, IL.

His lawyers requested more time to contest extradition to Wisconsin. Judge okays two weeks, so next hearing Oct 8.

The media continues to demonize Rittenhouse as a murderer while backing the "mostly peaceful" protesters' attempts to injure or kill police or anyone else opposing them or just convenient to their manufactured rage.

More simply put, things is FUBAR.

The bought-and-paid-for-by-the-left MSM was careful to not show him before the attack with a fire extinguisher trying to put out a fire or show him earlier in the day helping to clean graffiti off of a wall. :mad:

100% from all of the evidence I’ve seen.

And if they’re going to use past actions against him, they need to examine the lengthy felony arrests of the dirtbags who he was forced to defend himself against.
It's all for the trial held by the mob in the media. They ignore and even deny the criminal records of the protesters/thugs/terrorists and make up incidents to paint anyone who stands up to them to defend themselves or the property they destroy.

Two completely separate situations. . .
Jacob Blake was walking away from the police, was absolutely no threat to them and they shot him in the back 7 times. You can think what you want but in my America nobody should be treated like this.
Ya, that didn't age well.

We are now starting to hear the Officer's side of the story. Seem that people were yelling that Blake had their kids. It was also reported, although it is still not clear, that Blake was holding a knife/object in his hand. The Officer thought Blake was armed and involved in a kidnapping situation. Blake appeared to the Officer to be turning towards him and he fired, thinking that his life was in danger

What is Blake holding in this photo?Jacobbanksmikethecop-1.jpg

Biden's new campaign ads paint Rittenhouse as a white supremacist. His lawyers demand a retraction from Joe.

I would have thought that was grounds for getting the charges dropped - if the case was in the UK he could claim he's unable to get a fair trial because of the widespread surrounding publicity that's informing everyone he's guilty before the trial has even commenced. He could argue it's impossible to have an impartial jury that being the case. If it was in the UK it's also possible that Biden's party may have committed criminal offences by prejudicing the trial by commentating on the case in such a manner before it's heard. Not sure of US law but if this is permitted maybe there needs to be a campaign to get US law changed to allow fair trials. One for you guys!:

Hearing today after Rittenhouse's team filed objections to extradition resulted in judge giving prosecuters a week to answer and setting Oct 30 for next extradition hearing.


Rittenhouse and the McCloskeys are the bellwether of where this country's headed on the right to self-defense if folks don't get their heads out of their arses and vote to keep their long-defended rights by defeating leftists, socialism and marxism wherever it threatens our way of life.

Very sad, but well said and quite accurate. Our way of life has a knife to its throat at this very moment. What to do.....that's the question. VOTE.
