    The fact that we’re even the least bit surprised is sad.

    Many of us are not surprised. It was the appropriate verdict despite the defense's attempts at legal loopholes. Those dudes unnecessarily chased a kid down and murdered him....on video. Without the video, this could easily go another way. Much like the Rittenhouse trial, if one watched it and saw the videos, one would not be shocked at the verdicts.

    So is this going to be done today? I wonder what the nomad Twitter expert class will move to next. 

    Ahmaud A, case. Which is actually the one worth paying attention to.

    Indeed. Also, strange that the media calls is the Ahmaud Arbery trial. It should be called the McMichael trial.

  3. Well that’s not what you said. You said the kid who just now died lost the parent lottery, that his parents suck, and that you were “all for” pressIng charges against the parents. It’s not like I can’t read or anyone else can’t scroll up to read what you wrote if they feel like it. Hence me calling you a piece of shit, which is true. You should admit you’re wrong and move on. 

    I’m not sorry that my post hurt your feelings and sent you straight to ad hominem. We’ll get past it. Well, I will.

    I said I was all for it, but that’s only if a charge fits. I didn’t say that we should go lock them up no matter what. You should scroll up and read some more, but I hope you don’t.

    So his parents should be charged even though they didn't violate the law? They made a poor decision - one that I wouldn't make.  They didn't commit a crime and its cruel and asinine to say they should be charged with a crime after losing their child in a tragic accident.

     

    A 6 year old girl died in the Aurora movie theater shooting.  Should we charge her paralyzed mother for bringing her daughter to an R rated movie?

    My "pressing charges against them" is how I feel. I do not want anyone to be charged if no laws were broken.

    You should get on the news and air that bullshit opinion on camera for all to see. Or file a citizens complaint with the cops. 
     

    Or you could try to stop being such a complete piece of shit. 

    Ha. I should try to get on the news with this commonly held belief? What a stupid opinion and emotionally-challenged response. I should file a complaint with the cops? Why? Did they violate the law? Last I checked, it is not illegal to have a different moral code than me. Either way, the cops are already involved and don't need a keyboard Karen "helping" them out.

    We disagree here though I'm not sure why. Do you think the kid's parents are to be praised for taking him to this concert? Do think the dad made a great decision to take his 9 year old to a lineup that included Young Thug, SZA, Lil Baby, Drake, Travis Scott, etc.? Do you think a 9 year old should be exposed to those lyrics and the crowd that comes along with them? Do tell. Or don't.

  6. All I have ever really tried to do here is push back on the narrative that this is some sort of slam dunk case y’all espouse for the defense. It’s not. 

    Get real.

    That's not all you've tried to do.

    Yes, the case is a slam dunk self-defense. I didn’t know this until I watched the trial. It's clear.

    rSo was the evidence that Rosenbaum attempted to grab Rittenhouse's firearm?  Something else/more than that?

    I guess I'm struggling with the notion that it would be self-defense for Rittenhouse to shoot Rosenbaum simply because the latter attempted to grab Rittenhouse's gun.  But if Rosenbaum was doing something more than that which caused Rittenhouse to reasonably be in fear for his life, then perhaps it was self-defense.  I'm at a disadvantage because I haven't been watching the trial and I'm not sure of the testimony that has been elicited about that particular part of the incident.

    Rosenbaum was chasing Rittenhouse, lunged for his gun while yelling, "Fuck you", etc. Several testified that Rittenhouse shot him in self-defense, not just cuz.
