    According to U.S. law, all able-bodied male U.S. citizens between the ages of 17 and 45 are part of the militia of the United States. Including Kyle.

    And he performed very selflessly and bravely while protecting a U.S. city from being burnt to the ground by the communist insurgents. He deserves the Medal of Freedom.

    IMO, the jury will not collectively have the courage to acquit the obviously innocent KR.
    A hung jury is more likely, but they may decide to convict so they can go home in peace - or whatever passes for peace these days.

    Give me a break...:bored:

    Once again, you MISS The Point (Entirely)...

    It WASN'T "The lyrics" that some people took notice of....
    It WAS The RINGTONE!

    I assume that you understand what a "Ringtone" is?
    Once again, I apologize if English isn't your primary language.

    But, this is what is meant by a "Ringtone"

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ringtone

    It is Strictly MUSICAL (and has absolutely nothing to do with "The lyrics").

    Glad to be of service in pointing that out.

    Lee Greenwood released the song "God Bless the USA" in 1984:

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/God_Bless_the_U.S.A.

    It was first used in a Political Context at Reagan's 1984 GOP Convention.

    Trump didn't become associated with the song until AFTER he announced his candidacy.

    Thus, the song had been used in a Political Context for Over 3 Decades (long before Trump had any association with it).

    It is altogether possible (even extremely LIKELY) the the fact that the Judge's Ringtone was that Patriotic Song had absolutely NOTHING to do with Trump (or outing the Judge as Trump Supporter).

    FACT: A Cynical IMBECILE (Like Trump) only embraced that song to CON People
    (much like his Cynically-IDIOTIC Embrace of the US Flag) with insincere FAKE Patriotism!

    Trump doesn't own that song.
    It was already being used in Political Contexts for Several Decades (before Trump Cynically Embraced it).

    Anybody who thinks that the ONLY people who have a "God Bless the USA" Ringtone are Trump Supporters, has a screw loose.

    Many Patriotic Americans, from all parties (Dem., Rep., Ind., Etc.), have used that ringtone for years.
    Long Before Trump Cynically Embraced it (in a Show of Mock Patriotism).

    I have no problem whatsoever with the Judge's Ringtone.

    Although, I feel it is a breach of decorum that the phone wasn't on Silent Mode (or Vibrate).
    Maybe, the Judge is a big Lee Greenwood Fan?

    Certainly, his ringtone is nothing for anybody to get into a twist over.

    Every one of those groups are disgusting, and Kyle is genuinely in the right.

    So yes, people are saying it as many times as necessary.

    That may make you angry, and it clearly does. But its going to continue happening.

    Your projection aside, it is clear to anyone who has actually watched the video and the trial that KR is the good guy here.

    You cannot (while maintaining intellectual honesty) call your personal interpretation of Trumps motivation behind embracing that song a "fact" without the ability to read his mind, nor can you call his patriotism fake, without being able to read his mind. So your MISREPRESENTATION and FALSE characterization of the motivations of him taking a liking to that song as "fact" (without any supporting evidence or ability to read minds) aside, it is clear there is nothing wrong with that song nor Trump liking it, nor is there any (reasonable) critic that can be made of the judge liking it as well.

    Why are you pushing false narratives?

    Rittenhouse had to save his own life from a mob of deadly white thugs because the black American community in Kenosha had been effectively disarmed by government and was unable to keep the peace.

    "The use of guns for self-defense was not the opposite of nonviolence, as is commonly thought. Something more complicated but absolutely normal was at play. Hartman Turnbow precisely illustrates what when explaining why without hesitation, he used his rifle to drive away night riders attacking his house: "I had a wife and I have a daughter and I love my wife just like the white man loves his'n and and a white man will die for his'n and I say I'll die for mine."
    This Nonviolent Stuff'll Get You Killed, How Guns Made the Civil Rights Movement Possible, Charles E. Cobb JR., Basic Books 2014.p. 9,10.

    PRESIDENT REAGAN DESCRIBED BIDEN AS ‘SMOOTH BUT PURE DEMAGOGUE’ IN HIS PERSONAL DIARY: Kyle Rittenhouse’s Mom Slams Joe Biden for Defaming Her Son: ‘He Did It for Votes.’

    Of course, it’s been years since Biden was smooth.

    [​IMG]
    "On Thursday, hours after Kyle Rittenhouse’s defense team rested its case in his murder trial, his mother, Wendy blasted" Demented Race Baiting Liar "Joe Biden for defaming her son as a “white supremacist” last year in order to win votes for his presidential campaign."

    Joe Biden is lying corrupt evil scum.

    Rittenhouse didn't own the weapon....if you were informed, you would know another friend purchased it for him and was holding it for him until he turned 18. Now why don't you explain exactly what crimes Rittenhouse committed? I have seen Antifa carrying AR 15's in Phoenix. Guess it was not illegal for them. Are you just an apologist for Communists?

    Yo... The Prosecution tried to enter into evidence a completely blurred picture, and the Judge rightfully lambasted the moron. Look at it. The things these Democrats try to get away with is astonishing. He submitted this BS at the last minute. During his argument with the Judge, he asked if they could put it on a bigger screen. lol.

    Obviously, the Prosecutor knows he lost the case so he's antagonizing the Judge for providing the defendant a fair trial. He's trying to turn this case into a clown show so he won't be judged harshly for bringing those outrageous homicide charges. He wants to blame the judge.

    This doesn't happen in real life. If I were to do something like this in court, the judge would lose complete respect for me. He never take my word for anything You don't pull this BS, unless you want to go through hopes every time you face this judge. It's not even about vindictiveness. You have failed in performing your professional duty of diligence.

    Prosecution is trying to force a mistrial so his conviction record will not show a loss, teh judge isn't going to let him play that little political game.

    Yeah that judge was getting pissed.

    The prosecution could have called the guy who took that photo to the stand but they did not...they want the jury to infer that Kyle is guilty based on a blurry photo.

    It isn't even about that anymore. The media has already given him an out by portraying this judge as unfair to the prosecution.

    He's just acting unprofessional in order to get a rise out of the Judge on camera. What he did today in submitting that blurred picture was totally unprofessional. He should have found a more subtle way to piss off the judge.

    OMG... I was picking up my nephews from the school line today, and struck up a conversation with some hot moms about the Rittenhouse case just so I could proclaim that "American Hero, Kyle Rittenhouse, shot a child molester in self-defense."

    rittenhouse himself said he gave the money to his buddy to buy the gun ..he purchsed the gun illegally

    kinda like if he would have paid soeone to buy him a 6 pack of beer..both parties could be charged...even though he paid for the beer by law he was not allowed to have it ..same goes for the AR15 he was using to play army

    that person that bought the gun on behalf of rittenhouse is named dominic black and he faces 2 felony charges himself

    there was a curfew in place for the entire city ..he admitted on the stand he received the text about a curfew at 8PM

    like the other criminals, rittenhouse refused to obey the curfew

    rittenhouse may be found not guilty..but he is NOT innocent

    and besides

    and rumor has it, the criminals he killed were trumpers pretending to be antifa..

    and Rittenhouse is antifa pretending to be a trumper

    Interestingly, my friend agreed with your position about the gun charges.

    However, I told him that this was all political, and said Democrats would use that line about him being not innocent. That's how predictable these lines have become.

    This is why my friend stopped voting D. You are innocent until proven guilty. That's a basic constitutional principle. It doesn't matter that I believe OJ is not innocent of murder, because he is legally innocent.

    The fact that Democrats and some type of Pygmy Republicans (Lincoln Project pedophiles lol) have started using this rhetoric is just very clear evidence that your on the wrong side. You don't care about constitutional principles.

    Not even old school Sean Hannity believed that Nazi BS when there were high profile trials of defendants Democrats preferred in cases. That's how low you guys have sunk.

    That's not what he said in court. Democrats are liars. The news media knows they are giving him a platform to lie, because their intent is to disseminate fake news.

    That Democrat Professor advocating for pedophilia normalization made it on Fox News tonight. lol.

    I was anxious when the Democrats didn't start threads about Donald Trump, because I worried that they might have actually learned that it's best to tone it down on Trump and focus on other issues that voters care about. But sure enough they are back at it. Wasting their time.

    These guys are doing excellent work for the Republican Party. I'm just gonna keep telling them that they should go further cause they're just gonna think I'm trying to manipulate them. I love it.
