(5,125 posts)Obviously a lone liberal is SUCH a threat that their entire mob must attack.
I am a peaceful person, but I'm starting to think the only way liberals will get gun control is if we start being them.
Come into that group with an AR-15 with 100 round magazines and that one girl could have left them all in pieces.
IS THAT WHAT IT WILL TAKE?
Do Libs have to SHOW the Thugs that they ARE WRONG about gun control by using their gun memes against them?

(6,685 posts)Legal male adult yes, but I doubt he'll ever be a man. All hope was lost when he not only got off scott free but managed to get a paycheck out of it too.

(5,125 posts)He does have the body of a man against a woman, so there is that.

(2,403 posts)Never seen this or heard of it before.
But since it was from 2 years ago we should probably just disregard it

"One of Bingers motions sought to bring video evidence from June 2020 showing Rittenhouse assaulting a girl that was in a fight with his sister; another related to video from about two weeks before the protest shooting showing Rittenhouse at a CVS saying he wished he had his AR-15 to shoot people he thought were committing a crime at the store."
"Binger pointed to this and other evidence as proving Rittenhouse is 'essentially a teenage vigilante involving himself in things that dont concern him,' further calling him a 'chaos tourist.'l
"Corey Chirafisi, a Madison-based attorney for Rittenhouses defense, felt the two incidents were irrelevant and added nothing to an understanding of Rittenhouses state of mind or motive. Schroeder agreed, saying the evidence was trying to prove Rittenhouses propensity for violence even though the two incidents had nothing to do with the protest shootings."

Mr. Evil
(2,845 posts)it's perfectly applicable. "Pussy" is short for 'pusillanimous' person. It is not calling a person a 'vagina.'
If you don't want to look it up yourself, here's a link. https://www.dictionary.com/browse/pusillanimous

(63,912 posts)I wish it weren't. Like you I hate the degradation of our language, but it is what it is.

(2,845 posts)it can be a bit daunting to know all of them and their respective meanings and proper usage.

(89 posts)It was posted last November and only has 600 views and nine thumbs ups. That's one thumbs up for each subscriber to this anonymous youtuber.
I think that if there was any truth to this, we would have known about it long ago.

(29,674 posts)I recognize the background. It's in a parking lot in downtown Kenosha, a couple of blocks from the lake. Others from the area verified it as him.
The video was posted on social media before the events in Kenosha. This is someone else who reshared it.

(29,674 posts)I was there visiting last summer. I immediately recognized the area shown in the video.
I do wonder if this video and the one of him sitting in front of a CVS on 57th had been submitted in court would the verdict be the same?
ProfessorGAC
(65,061 posts)...he throws punches like that, he's getting his nose broken.
That punch came from a different zip code.
But, if he's cowardly hitting from behind, i guess it doesn't matter.
He better not get in a one to one fight, though. Killer boy will get creamed.
obamanut2012
(26,080 posts)But, I actually have been taught how to spar, and have Aikido and JUdo experience, quite a bit. So, he is stronger than me, but if I got him by surprise to counteract that some, I could lay him out then run like hell! hahahaha
He really sucks.
ProfessorGAC
(65,061 posts)That looks to be easy. He can't keep his balance, his punch went arm's length outside his frame.
A person throwing a punch, missing wildly and off-balance is an easy target.
Besides, a hard open hand slap to the face would have him crying like an infant.

Sounds about right for that little murdering coward.

(2,547 posts)Did someone forward this to Thomas Binger? This could be huge!! Maybe enough to overturn his acquittal.
The Grand Illuminist
(1,332 posts)That would be double jeopardy.
Dr. Strange
(25,921 posts)It wouldn't have been admissible, just like the video of Rittenhouse talking about wishing he had his gun to deal with shoplifters.
Jedi Guy
(3,193 posts)This incident had nothing to do with the crimes with which he was charged. Apart from that, an acquittal from a jury can't be overturned. A new trial could be ordered in certain circumstances but that's about it.
stopdiggin
(11,316 posts)that would explain a rehash of this?
Hav
(5,969 posts)Out of nowhere, 3 Rittenhouse threads were posted today including him not enrolling at a university. Who cares about that and what's the reason for bringing that to DU?

(1,392 posts)He's going to Texas A & M.
That's a school that always had a spot in it's heart for shooters.
He should do well.
Totally Tunsie
(10,885 posts)During a radio appearance last week, Kyle Rittenhouse did his best impression of a high school athlete announcing his college choice on National Signing Day placing a Texas A&M hat he pulled from under a table on his head.
Im going to be going there, and its going to be awesome, said Rittenhouse, who shot three people, two of them fatally, during a 2020 racial-justice protest in Kenosha, Wis.
But a university official said on Sunday that Rittenhouse isnt attending. He has not been admitted as a student this summer or fall, Texas A&M spokeswoman Kelly Brown said in an email.
And this is a bit of a problem for Kyle because Texas A&M is not your local community college that is under an obligation to accept everyone with the proper qualifications (which is almost everyone). No, Texas A&M is one of two fairly prestigious Texas public universities (along with UT Austin) and only 58% of applicants are admitted to Texas A&M. Given that it is a Texas public school, it would be much harder to be accepted as a non-Texan. Additionally, weve seen nothing to indicate that Kyle would fit in that top half that gets accepted.
Happy DU Anniversary, Conjuay!
