I felt compelled to listen in on the Rittenhouse prosecution today. This was the absolute bar none most bizarre case they could have possibly made. Their own star witness admitted in court that he was shot while in the process of advancing on Kyle with a loaded pistol pointed at his head immediately after Kyle had just been assaulted from someone else in the crowd.
They pulled out some lefty "citizen journalist" who testified that the crowd was ready to "burn you guys to the ground if you say one wrong thing" more or less proving that that to an outside observer Kyle was in danger.
They pulled out a cop who pepper sprayed kyle for no reason, more or less.
They pulled out an investigator who admitted that the prosecution didn't want him investigating evidence that would have a high likelihood of proving Kyle innocent and their star witness guilty
They had a cop who tried to say "Well, we can't really know if (Pedo)baum was "chasing" Kyle... he was just moving in the same direction, directly behind, and shouting obscenities."
The prosecution literally facepalmed and looked defeated.
Does the defense even need to call their own witnesses at this point?
But more distressingly, will the jury convict anyway out of fear of more 'peaceful protests' or being doxxed and murdered by BLM and Antifa?
