The Settlement REQUIRED that the Covington kid or his lawyer NOT reveal the amount, so why would HE or Lyn Wood Brag openly about the amount since it would result in him losing the settlement, since he would be violating their legal contract?

Do you really NOT know this fact of the settlement?

He can't talk about it you complete and utter ignoramus!  

It is called a confidentiality clause.  Perhaps you should familiarize yourself with one.

Then you wouldn't be exposing your abject stupidity.

Grosskreutz, the only survivor shot by Rittenhouse, testified he pursued Rittenhouse because he thought he was an active shooter. An all too common problem when you start inserting lots of armed civilians into volatile situations.

I'm not saying the defense had not put up a good counter-argument. I'm merely saying if you ignore all of the politics and the left versus right, it seems clear to me that Rittenhouse caused the whole situation.

Here's an analogy.

I'm walking down the street, and I see some people vandalizing cars that are not mine. I tell them to stop. Instead, they flip me the bird. I then pull out my gun, point it at them and ask them to stop. One of the vandals then charges at me completely unarmed. He is threatening, and I'm in fear for my life. So, I fire at him four times, hitting him each time killing him. Am I legally justified in my actions, or is this murder? The above analogy is almost identical to Rittenhouse's actions, and I think he was wrong and caused the whole situation. Rittenhouse had no business being there with a rifle trying to protect property that was not his, and the owners did not ask him to watch. It's not self-defense since Rittenhouse provoked and caused the entire situation. When you do something to provoke a crisis, you cannot use deadly force to defend yourself from the threat you caused. Imagine if you could get away with that what our society would look like.

I would not be surprised if you violated a gun law or two or maybe committed manslaughter in many states, but I do not think you committed murder.

There was lots of drone footage shown at the trial showing him pointing the gun at people repeatedly. I believe that you are striking out, but more importantly, it's impossible to have a simple difference of opinion with you. Instead, you always have to be in this rabid attack-dog mode where the only possible conclusion is that everyone else is an idiot, and only you have access to the truth. You might, for example, look at how Jim and I disagreed on some of the salient points of the matter without being assholes. It won't happen, I know, but what the hell; I thought I'd give it the old college try.

If this turns out to be literally true, Rittenhouse walks.  That sort of misconduct can never be tolerated.  J

That is a fact, and you're free to believe whatever you want.  

The prosecutor already admitted in open court that their copy was "MUCH clearer".  

He said flat out, verbatim because I listened to it:  "Yes, our version is MUCH clearer". 

That's Word for Word demorrhoid.

I watched the 1st 15 seconds of that idiot you watch, the bleeding heart lib who said "they're doing exactly what we thought and they're making a hero out of Kyle Rittenhouse".

As opposed to You and your side who are making heroes out of, the Feloniously Convicted Pedophile who was shot by Kyle R. and the other Convicted Felons.

I'd rather be on my side, supporting a kid who was found not guilty of any crimes that night, as opposed to You who supports the career criminals, while your bleeding heart weeps for those cretins.

So I'll just point out who Your personal  heroes are.  They are the scum of the Earth.  You might want to check your morality. Its pretty much non-existent IMO.

The first one you are lionizing is a 5X convicted Pedophile, who anally sodomized 5 young boys, ages 9 to 11, and served 10 years in prison, for his crimes against children who tried to kill Kyle R., whom Kyle R. had to shoot to save his own life from the criminal who told him "I'm gonna' Kill you Mother F'er", and then tried to do just that.

He is the first one that You and your guys made a martyr and hero of.

The 2nd was another criminal with a rap sheet longer than my dick, and was up on charges of domestic violence.  That's Your 2nd hero of the night.

That scumbag Huber had already bashed Kyle R. in the head with his large wooden skateboard that night and was in the process of trying to Kill Kyle R. WITH that skateboard, when Kyle R. shot him to prevent him from Killing Kyle R.

You and Yours weep for the scumbag criminals which isn't surprising, rather than standing up for the right to self-defense of a 17 year old boy being attacked by the MOB.

That's just how sick in the head You and yours are.  

The third was a convicted criminal who tried to shoot Kyle R. with his GLOCK handgun, and whom if Kyle R. did NOT shoot, would have shot Kyle R. Dead.

Those are the scumbags You and Yours are making into heroes.  

I'll stick with the 17 year old kid and take his side, the side that was vindicated in Court last week, while You can continue to stand with convicted Felons and a convicted 5X PEDOPHILE who sodomized 5 young boys.

That's the guy YOU support you sick bastard.
