The fix is in, Rittenhouse case...

[carmenjonze]

That clarifies that. I thought you were talking about me because you quoted me and that was the first thing you said. The label wouldn't totally bother me because we're not that far apart.



I'm OK with Blue Dog being here too.

Bluedogdem is a sock who routinely misrepresents himself to own the libbz.

I don't care. He's polite, plays well with others.

[carmenjonze]

I don't care.

He's a dishonest conservative whom you're trying to impress, so why would you?

[sam lefthand]

[carmenjonze]

You support Rittenhouse supporters like the clods in this cartoon.

[ProfX]

The board is open to anybody still despite the name - liberal, conservative, libertarian, moderate, Pastafarian, Conscious Party - always has been, always should be.

I give back what you give. If you're polite and not rude, I treat you back the same way. We can all argue about what trolling is. If you've looked up at the board's name and said, well, I'm here to upset and anger liberals because there seem to be a lot here, you call liberals "libtards" ... you're trolling.

As to whether that is happening now ... nuff said.

Look, if you're doing something annoying, like accusing me and other people here of being secret members of the John Birch Society , I'm also gonna say it's annoying ... and idiotic.

Lol Sam Lefthand is so full of crap. Lol he doesn't care about being polite, or "playing nice with others" (which is the way one talks about a four year old.) You can tell by his own crass posts and silence when his con friends do it.

As far as safety is concerned, I think it’s important for people of all races, all classes, to feel safe in their homes, their workplaces, their places of worship, their schools, their lives in general.

Sure, you do. Sure.

This flyer from Mississippi is almost 60 years old (1963).

Mississippi, 1963.

Here we African Americans are in 2021 asking -- rhetorically -- the same exact question.

Whereas, your cohort Glennfs thinks so-called racism against whites is accepted by the general public.

[carmenjonze]

:ignore:

Miss [Ella] Baker talked about the way the rest of the country tacitly supported white supremacy in Mississippi: “At no point were the southern states denied their representation on the basis of the fact that they had denied other people the right to participate in the election of those who govern them.” She warned the delegates that when they were able to elect their own representatives, that wouldn't be the end of their troubles; elected representatives had to be watched: “Now this is not the kind of keynote speech, perhaps, you like. But I'm not trying to make you feel good.” ...

Echoing the theme of the summer project, she said, “Until the killing of Black mothers' sons is as important as the killing of white mothers' sons, we must keep on.”

It's still not as important, so the work continues.

I am very glad for people like you to consider me part of some made-up "5%" of whatever viewtopic.php?p=6603#p6603 :problem:.

You are of "the rest of the country" that tacitly supported white supremacy in 1960s Mississippi. You guys still do, two generations later.

You want claim "big tent" when it's convenient in an internet argument. But like your Republican cohorts who wish to bury the history of the Radical Republicans, you do not mean the Mississippi Freedom Democratic Party when you say "big tent" today, any more than you guys did, then. Oh my goodness, thinking you should have political representation in the country of which you're a citizen is so radical!

The Dem party is not monolithic, despite your loyalty to a label. 5%, forever.

[sam lefthand]

[carmenjonze]

You prop up the people who agree with the verdict.

[ProfX]

We nay or may not agree on the verdict. That said, seems to me we should at least all agree, exactly for the reasons of that cartoon, not to be treating him like a hero or celebrating his actions, or watching congress-critters falling all over themselves over who can first give him a job.

Dunno, seems to me people should all be agreeing it's a bad idea for young vigilantes roaming around tense situations with heavy weaponry. How about ways to discourage that.

The Huber family had a lonely Thanksgiving this year, and it's a tragedy they had to. Their son was there at that protest to express his lawful rights and be a medic. He didn't deserve to die for that. I won't discuss his other two, victims. I don't know what was going on with Rosenbaum's mental health, could discuss that till angels finish dancing on a pin, and we could debate if it was a good idea for Grosskreutz to draw the pistol. I still view Huber's death as a horrific tragedy, and I'm sorry for his family.

Bluedogdem is many things, but he is NOT a Democrat. Poor Green thought no one would notice.

[Glennfs]

Let me see if I have this correct a 17 year old child shot and killed a pedophile in self defense and because of this the left is upset.
The verdict in this and the Aubrey case were 100pct the correct verdict.
As for Rittenhouse getting sued which family should sue him? The Pedophiles? The career criminals? Or the guy who pulled the gun on him?

[ProfX]

So now, which one was the pedophile, and which one the career criminal?

I assume you're going to tell us where this "info" comes from.

Source for line of crap you are pushing. Rittenhouse is a killer. Post your fucking proof, and no "Google" won't work.

Demonize the victims. You think it’s perfectly okay to bring an AR-15 to a protest and aim it at protesters.

[Libertas]

AT no time was self defense a real thing in this case, obviously.

Just imagine an African-American male with an A.R. 15 at a unite the right rally.

And if he shot anyone for ANY REASON you know who here would be losing their minds until that person was in prison forever.

[bradman]

[bold] Which Rittenhouse's lawyers would have tried to use but for one thing.........The judge ruled their past criminal records as inadmissible and of no relevance to the court case.

[Glennfs]

He only aimed it when he was confronted and placed in danger. But no I don't think it is a good idea to bring a weapon to such an event. Even though in Wisconsin it is legal to do so.
Yes I do demonize the pedophile and career criminal he shot. But I defend your right to defend and canonize pedophiles and career criminals

The jury disagrees with your opinion. Of course they sat for days seeing the evidence and proof. So obviously your personal opinion is much more valid

[marindem01]

He only aimed it when he was confronted

Rittenhouse was carrying an illegally obtain AR-15 in a Community he did not live in. He fired into the crowd with the intent to to do bodily harm. He claimed to be a medic, but had no medical bag displayed, nor was he wearing a badge identifying himself a medic.

He murdered two men Glenn, there is was self defense.

No you have been duped by the lw media. The weapon was already in Wisconsin he did not transport it across state lines and in Wisconsin his carrying the weapon is completely legal. A dumb law but the law nonetheless.
He never fired into any crowd he only shot in self defense after he tried to get away from the people hassling him.

All these facts came out on the trial and were the reason he was correctly found not guilty.

[Drak]

No you have been duped by the lw media.

You just referred to one of the victims as a pedophile and didn't provide where you got that info from.
