I merely find his inability to apply his code of conduct for everyone else to himself amusing.

Sounds like a distinction without a point.....When I have to go to a suburb of Atlanta I say I have to go to Atlanta not I have to go to Buckhead or College Park or any of the other suburbs.

Once again you show your complete ignorance.....he was using standard 5.56mm military (.223) surplus rounds which are cheap and plentiful....and jacketed as you said. The REASON the military uses them is they dont expand and tear up flesh. The goal isnt to kill the enemy but rather wound the enemy and tie up as many personnel as possible in dealing with the wounded.....Jacketed bullets pass through flesh without doing nearly the damage that mushrooming soft points or worse yet potentially fragmenting hollow points do. This basically means the exit wound is the same size as the entry wound.....If I have to get shot I would much prefer jacketed bullets over any other kind.....

Odds of Rittenhouse being beaten to death that night by the MOB

Were those deaths all homicides by rifle or as I suspect 451 include suicides and accidentals as well?

Uhhh nope......if he had been guilty of participating in vigilantism I am quite sure they would have made something stick to him but he was acquitted on ALL counts. 

One of the things Rittenhouse was out there in the streets doing that night was putting out a dumpster fire that was being rolled down to a gas station to blow up, with people all around. Such blatant vigilantism huh?

Our LEGAL system is becoming ultimately corrupt as Hell under Democrat Prosecutors

Posted By Greg Shaffer
LOL.....you guys are sooooooooooooooo entertaining.

So *A* republican hired a firm that makes a living doing opposition research to find dirt on Trump hoping to find a way to keep him off the ticket and failed.

Then *A* Democrat opponent came along and hired the same firm to hopefully find something to keep him from winning.

That sound about right? Is there some nefarious connection I am missing? Is there something special about this particular opposition research firm that makes this unusual outside of the fact that obviously if you throw enough money their way they will find people to just make shit up? 

What exactly is supposed to be a surprise here or out of the ordinary? smile

Sure....he made the choice to go out and assist in protecting the community he lives in when the police were under instructions to stand down and watch as that community was looted and burned. I wont speak for anyone but myself but I definitely understand it AND agree with it 100%. This country could use a few million more just like him.

Ok.....I have seen the same stuff months and months ago and I dont find it surprising..... A couple of opposing factions chose to use the same obviously corrupt research group whom I am certain dont care who's handing them $$ as long as they get paid. I guess the point here is "So what?" Just trying to wrap my head around what exactly this is supposed to mean that is important so many months later......
