Did they ask her which one was the convicted pedophile?

Yes, and she said she didn't care, leave him alone.

Stupidity and ignorance like that is why we are going to see riots again when anything other than "guilty" comes through.

And the bad guy was armed.
Bicep boy had a pistol.  He got hit over the head with a skateboard.  I heard someone say the one guy grabbing his AR-15 can be considered as him being armed. 

I guess it is just more stuff added to the mountain of misinformation around this whole event.

I'm kinda surprised that pedo, et al haven't been photoshopped into black people at this point, with CNN et al referring to them as POC.

What the holy eff?! If I'd been on the jury I'd have walked straight out and refused to re-enter the courtroom until I had assurances the prosecutor was strictly forbidden from touching the weapons.

Blue-checks already out in full force playing the ‘what if Kyle were black’ card trying to make a white guy shooting other white guys racist

From Mark Richards I have learned that Kyle's AR-14 cannot be fired left-handed.

Overall, some gun nut issues aside, Richards had been on fire with his closing.  Where the hell was this fire, passion and willingness to call out the persecution on their bovine scat for the previous 2 weeks!!

He did finally bring up the inconsistency of bicep boy carrying a loaded gun on a regular basis but saying he could not take a life.

I’m guessing she isn’t concerned at all about arson, assault, and looting that the “victims” were engaged in. Those violations of the law are A-OK in her book.


Apparently A-OK to the prosecutor as well

Yes, but it’s even more effective to not let them make the arguments in the first place.

I suspect there will be riots regardless of the verdict.
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

Defense attorney is making a pretty strong closing argument.

It would be amusing if BLM rioted over a white on white shooting.  I am sure some antifa types will be out and about.  I guess the price of lumber might spike up a bit.

They should have dove for cover, since they were disarmed and couldn't shoot back.
Judge should have cleared the courtroom and had prosecutor arrested for reckless endangerment, or maybe even aggravated assault.  The trial can continue without him, or declare the mistrial with prejudice.

I really think the prosecution has been trying to get a simple mistrial so they can get a do-over.  :mad:

I think I would have been taken off the jury for saying bailiff, disarm this *expletive deleted*ing idiot before I do.

I would not have been so eloquent, I woulda probably yelled "*expletive deleted*it!" and dove for cover.  If the judge took offense at that, I might have elaborated. (and that would have guaranteed a mistrial.)

Bailiff should have shot him, but I assume the bailiff doesn't have a gun.  and also probably didn't realize what was happening.

I was referring to the Roadhouse reference. The idiot DA said "you don't bring a weapon to a fistfight!" And then showed a picture of a [fictional] fistfight that someone brought a weapon to.
