Arsonists warned him to leave them alone!
The prosecution’s case is beyond weak and assistant D.A. Binger is antagonizing the judge and jury. (Not that CNN has noticed. BOTH on-scene commenters had him convicted in the news media. MSNBC analyst John Heilemann called Rittenhouse “arguably a domestic terrorist)
Why did Kenosha County even bring the case? Because if they didn’t, social justice warriors would go crazy. They will anyway, after Rittenhouse is exonerated.
Kyle’s emotional breakdown early in his testimony was real; the jury cannot unsee it.
The judge also foreshadowed a directed verdict of innocent, although he will let the jury render that verict. Judge Bruce Schroeder: “There is nothing in your case to suggest that the defendant was lying in wait to shoot someone … every one of the incidents involve seconds in time.” Schroeder also reprimanded Binger for questioning the defendant’s right to remain silent.
→ Judge Bruce Schroeder to Asst. D.A. Thomas Binger: “Don’t get brazen with me!”
National Review notes that the district attorney never charged Gaige Grosskreutz with illegal concealed carry. Their witness even admitted his CC license had expired. Andrew McCarthy writes:
So clearly innocent is this defendant that his being forced to stand trial at all, in a justice system where the accused is presumed innocent even when the evidence of guilt is overwhelming, should frighten us.
WI Prosecutors … do not approve of firearms for protective purposes. And of course, Rittenhouse’s self-defense intruded on the social-justice cause of brutal rioting that we’re supposed to believe somehow combats the supposed scourges of white supremacism and police brutality.
This question from the prosecutor to the defendant says it all: “You know this crowd would not react favorably to you going out on the street putting out fires, right?“
Blaska’s Bottom Line answer would have been, “That’s why the AR-15, Bro.“ Wonderful that Thomas Binger can second-guess Kyle Rittenhouse but not the rioters.

The jury should reach a verdict of innocent on all the serious shooting related charges in less time than it will take for the Judge to read them their instructions.

This is pure unadultrated trolling and a verifiable lie! You would be banned for life if you did this to anyone on my blog.
The facts are on my side, as usual.
Here are actual facts:
1. I just searched the 409 separate threads that I’ve been part of on Blaska’s blog. What I searched for was “box of rocks”. The results are as follows; other than the use above in this thread I used the phrase two other times and here are the statements and corresponding links…
2. That search wasn’t good enough for me. I also searched the 409 separate threads for “rock” to see if there was some reply to you that might have been close to your claim and none of the four comments to you using the word “rock” were close to calling you a “box of rocks”. One reply referred to the Rocky Mountains, one was asking if you had been living under a rock, and two were referring to your claim that you threw rocks while while protesting and that you’d do it again, reply 1 and reply 2.
Facts are MY friend Mr. Lesiak but facts are your enemy and the enemy of all lying internet trolls. The actual facts prove beyond a shadow of doubt that I never called you a “box of rocks”.
So here we are again Mr. Lesiak, you have made a claim that is not supportable by any stretch of the imagination, it’s a verifiable trolling lie that was posted for one puspose, to publicly slander me with a verfiable false accusation. I’d like to see you try to back up your lie with actual facts, as in quote me and provide a link to my comment as I have done, if you cannot do so then you need to retract your libelous lie and apologize appropriatly.

As pissed as this judge is at the prosecutor, he’s not going to grant that with prejudice. Ninety nine times out of a hundred, I’d agree that a defendant should never testify, but Rittenhouse is proving himself to be the exception. The longer the prosecutor cross examines him the more he exposes just how weak and flimsy this case proves to be. An 18 year old is making an ass out of the prosecutor. The only reason this jury may take more than10 minutes to come back with a “Not Guilty” verdict is because they want one more lunch on the State’s tab.

Rich, why do you do this? There are probably people here who would be willing to engage you in a serious discussion, (though no names come to mind at the moment). People have tried before, and always end up regretting the effort, —always!
Case In Point: Introducing Ahmaud Arbery into the discussion was an excellent point, and an intriguing topic for examination. Ahmaud Arbery and Kyle Rittenhouse are two sides of the same coin. Both men were minding their own business and engaged in a lawfull activity. (although in potentially hostile environments) Both men were chased, and accosted, by armed aggressors intent on denying them the use of a public thoroughfare, and killing them, if given the chance. Both men attempted to avoid conflict, and were unsuccessful in that end. The difference is NOT that one is black and one is white. It is that one is dead, and the other is not – one was ARMED, and the other was not. (Sorry, but that’s it)
I know that you, and millions of others, love your crafted narratives. Innocent black youth gunned down by white supremacists. Peaceful protesters gunned down by a racist/sexist/homophobe/etc/etc gun nut. But both stories are essentially the same.
Ahmaud WAS killed by Racists!!! They grabbed their guns, jumped in their trucks, took off to get the “ni**er” that DARED to come into “their neighborhood”. (kind of like how YOU described Kyle R “running around YOUR state with an AR”) This is why both stories are the same. Racists attacked Ahmaud because he was black, and they HATED him for it, he wasn’t one of them. Rioters attacked Kyle R because he is a right wing (take your pick of epithet), and they HATED him for it, he wasn’t one of them. Never, for a moment, think that “woke” hatred for those on the right is not EVERY BIT as intense as that of the racist for the blacks.
So Rich, lets pretend that Ahmaud was jogging with his handgun, and, when threatened, reached in his waistband, grabbed the gun and blew “Bubba” and “Cletus” away. Now he is ALIVE and on trial. Read back over all of your thoughts on Rittenhouse, but imagine it is Arbery. (maybe his mommy could make HIM cheese sandwiches to keep HIM out of a “white man’s neighborhood” . what do you think?)
Rich, I wish you could see that (and this hurts to say), occasionally, you have a good idea that could add to the discussion. But for some reason you just won’t allow it, instead you start little “word skirmishes”, drawing the others into it with you. I’m going to catch flak for wasting words on you, but once you start a fight I stop reading, let alone commenting, and it doesn’t have to be that way. For someone who opposes guns so much, you “shoot yourself in the foot” a lot.

Richard,
Not much I can say to top what pANTIFArts has already stated but: Take a look at the web site, Hey Jackass Chicago, https://heyjackass.com/
You will notice the following.
1. As of November 10th, there have been 747 murders in Chicago this year.
2. Of those murdered, 82.1% of those murdered are Black people.
3. Most of those who were murdered were men.
4. The vast majority of those murdered were between the ages of 18-35.
5. Only 7 people have been shot dead by the Chicago Police during this period. That is only
0.00937081659% of all those who were killed so far this year in Chicago.
So when you make the statement:
“Maybe it should have something to do with Arbery. People are being killed because of Dip-S$%ts with guns. The same dip-s$%ts that the NRA itself has called “idiots and dumb hillbillies”. This little punk should have been at home with mommy making him a grilled cheese sandwich, not running around OUR state with a AR. He defended no one; saved no businesses, put out no fires. Letting that fool off means that human life means nothing.”
One might be tempted to ask: What about the Dip-S$%ts from Chicago who come up from Chicago to our state and create all sorts of havoc and kill many in shootouts in our fair city of Madison?
The difference between them and the likes of Kyle can be reduced to one word. INTENT!
When Kyle came up to Kenosha can it be proven that he had the intent to kill other people?
When the Dip-S%ts from Chicago come up to Madison and other cities in our fair state can it be proven that they had the intent to kill other people?
Point I’m trying to make is that the greatest danger to a young black man living in the culture that was created in Chicago and other cities, is other young black men.
That culture was created by white and now black liberal socialists who personally benefited off the misery of the general population of Chicago and other major cities.

Why was a convicted child rapist (Joseph Rosenbaum) released from a mental hospital?
How can someone like Rosenbaum (based on his record, a predator) be released from prison after allegedly sexually abusing five children? (See above post for more details).
How can leftists accuse Rittenhouse of being motivated by white supremacy when all the people involved in the tragedy that evening were white?
Why are leftists (politicians, media, etc.) so focused on Rittenhouse and hoping that he rots in prison, while ignoring the terrorism perpetrated that night by people who share their own political leanings? Or by what they did all last summer? You are all focused on those few hours of 1/6, while leftist anarchists maimed police, attempted to blind them, burned down government buildings, destroyed people’s livelihoods, toppled statues, attacked civilians (people died and were seriously injured), caused billions in damage, and set fear in people’s hearts ALL LAST SUMMER.
And why do these same leftists work overtime to coddle criminals by creating bail “reform” laws and electing prosecutors who allow psychopathic murderers to walk free?
There are reports of someone threatening the Kenosha jury so that they vote to find Rittenhouse guilty? Is the federal government investigating this? Or are they too busy going after parents?
Why don’t leftists understand that even though Rittenhouse perhaps shouldn’t have been there that evening, that he had no choice but defend himself? Why do they not believe the witnesses who all say that the “victims” threatened to kill Rittenhouse, and by law he was in the right?

1. Guns are lame. They make the weak strong for just a few hundred dollars. They eliminate the positive aspects of competition that are celebrated in other arenas like economics. If we’re going to accept human’s natural inclination towards violence I’d much prefer people fought each other head-up without weapons. Weapons are for weaklings that don’t have sufficient talent or skill for fighting. They’re like affirmative action for strength, and I think that’s why people love them so much – they get to be strong without putting any effort into becoming strong.
2. I don’t believe that the prosecution even wants to gain a conviction. This case would be totally different if the victims’ families hired their own lawyers. County prosecutors are political offices that paint a veneer of being in the service of crime victims. Politically they needed to bring charges, and politically they may be trying not to convict – a win-win.
3. Our legal system is dumb. Long ago it was concerned with fact – did the accused do the prohibited act? Now it is concerned with the mind – what were the accused’s thoughts during the act? Now there’s nothing to prove, just a sales job to convince what thoughts were, something that by definition can only rarely be “proven”. It used to be that if one committed a prohibited act in the name of something good they would man up and take the punishment with their internal moral compass in tact. Now everyone’s a bunch of babies crying that “it’s not fair, I didn’t mean to!”. I think we should get our legal system back to facts and leave feelings and intent to the theologians.
4. I haven’t been closely following the case nor the media around it, so I’m not familiar with the evidence. But from a general view, there’s some point where one inserts themselves unnecessary into dangerous situations and gets forced to use violence. In those cases the person, even if acting in self defense at the moment, should be accountable for the stupid decisions that brought them to that point. If he owned the property he was “defending” that would make some more sense, but I don’t want someone killing a bunch of people in the supposed defense of my house.
5. When does self defense turn to offense? Suppose someone legitimately shoots and kills in self defense, then others hear it but don’t know what happened. They come to the situation to stop the violence, and seeing a guy with a gun how are they to know what happened beyond the obvious facts? They try to stop this person believing correctly that they are shooting people. But now this person can claim infinite self defense towards anyone who attempts to stop them from killing more people, and kill those people as well. Can this person legally kill hundreds of people in this cycle? Are citizens now barred from stopping mass shooters and we legally only can run away?

Let me tackle your first point. “Guns are lame.”
Perhaps you should direct your statement to the psychopathic murderers in Chicago and other cities who gun down innocent civilians, including children.
I’d also ask you to say this to women, who are generally unable to compete physically with men (despite what leftists say, this is a biological fact). Should a woman not be allowed to protect herself against rapes & assaults because some on the left are offended by guns? Personal safety comes before leftist sensitivities.
And what would you suggest if armed thugs are coming at you? Do you really think a fist fight will be effective in stopping them?
Newsflash: Gun sales by law-abiding Americans (especially women) are skyrocketing because they don’t feel safe. Why don’t they feel safe? Because crime is out of control and police departments are being defunded and unable to protect the general public from anarchists, as we saw in Kenosha and cities across the country all last summer. They also feel unsafe because leftists coddle criminals via bail “reform” laws and leftist prosecutors and judges who don’t hold thugs accountable.
Oh, and most gun violence is perpetrated by guns acquired illegally. Ask any cop about this.
Your statement is naive.
