Default Rittenhouse Verdict

Rare that I’m speechless but I really am.

WTF happened to this country?

In this day in age do you really think that you would get an impartial jury that would render an unanimous verdict in a case that is politicized like this? Scary to think whats in store for us because I don't think you can ever again assemble an impartial jury in a case of this type. And it works both ways those on the right think they are the only ones that aren't loaded and skilled with weapons.

You're right that the days of an impartial jury are done.

Did you happen to see all the guys busting nuts about the verdict on PA? I was glutton for punishment and went and looked. Scary.

Lot of broken people over there.. So much easier to spew hate and blame others for your station in life.. If they spent 1/4 of that time actually learning a skill that applies to the 21st century their lives would be completely different. So crazy.... Like so now if a guy walks into a church, store, Trump Tower, etc with an AR15 and someone grabs the gun thinking they are stopping a potential mass murderer he could claim he was in fear of his life and start mowing people down?

White vigilantism has gone unchecked in this country for centuries.. But don't worry, certain state legislatures are working to guarantee there won't be a way to educate anyone about it going forward, so it doesn't really exist and never really happened.
