Why is it taking so long for the Jury to rule on Seems a clear cut case of innocence to me. I cant imagine how any other verdict is even a thought given the circumstances (which are largely agreed upon by both sides).

@freemo I'm not entirely proud of it but I've remained largely ignorant on the case and ignored all the memes. However, I am extremely proud that I got called a lieing foreign troll on "other" social media when I corrected someone's assumption that the prosecution can successfully appeal if he's found not guilty.

@b6hydra watching the video of the events mostly tells you all you need to know. The dude was running from people trying to kill him screaming "friendly friendly friendly" and only shot once he was knocked to the ground, cornered, and people starting attacking him (including at one point having a gun held to his head).

@freemo @b6hydra i saw the videos live posted but ignored the court cases (i did watch closing arguments yesterday live though.)

barnes take is they're probably arguing because of tribal lines. jury reportedly came back and started asking for copies of the self defense laws and other papers.
@icedquinn @b6hydra @freemo Yeah they asked for the specific pages for self-defense instructions only too.

@thendrix

indeed. But it should be no surprise that the core issue here is "was this self-defense".. i mean did we really need the jury to ask for those papers to glean that?

@icedquinn @b6hydra

@freemo @thendrix @b6hydra the state is heavily banking on a wisconsin interpretation of self defense.

it's desperate but they literally argued that it's "not" self defense because he could have gone in to melee instead lol

@icedquinn

LOL yea thats kinda the only way i could see the prosecution getting a win, arguing that a gun is somehow excessive force when a mob is trying to murder you.... lets hope thats not where it winds up.

@b6hydra @thendrix

@freemo @b6hydra @thendrix i'm not sure why the violent inclinations of the victims doesn't seem to get picked up by anyone. they were actively engaging in property destruction, dumpster fires, prior convictions, etc.

always funny how police walk on stuff like this by just saying "i got skerd" and a civilian does it and it's like :cirno_shrug: well he didn't have state training in how to be scared, so he shouldn't have been!

@icedquinn

The reason is simple. Kyle took a picture with some proud boys and made the OK sign. Therefore that means he is loved by conservatives, hated by liberals. The facts of the case became irrelevant at that moment.

@b6hydra @thendrix

@freemo @b6hydra @thendrix i'm not gonna lie i'm happy some terrorists got shot instead of bailed out by kamala. :cirno_sip: much schadenfreude.

@icedquinn

I can feel twitter trying to ban you from beyond the grave at the mention of this comment....

@thendrix @b6hydra @freemo why am i not surprised.

there were already two [claims] of external pressure against witnesses.
@icedquinn @b6hydra @freemo

> More: Worried about media leaking their names, what will happen to their families, jobs, etc - Jack P

They're never going to be sated... giving in is always the losing option.
@thendrix @b6hydra @freemo are we going in to the timeline where being a jury in a trial is grounds for the witness protection program :facepalm_cirno:
@icedquinn @b6hydra @freemo The courts are already on their last legs. Not even the feds bother with their rulings already. People didn't understand when I said the courts are on trail here...
@thendrix @b6hydra @freemo
jackp just reached rekieta and barnes.
> there are hard protestors outside the court house

so they've got the riots on idle if he's not guilcup
@icedquinn @b6hydra @freemo

> @GeorgePapa19 Breaking: jurors are being threatened

Yeah, it's starting might go for mistrial.

:blobcathammer:  

@thendrix @b6hydra @freemo lol rackets stream already on hard cope for mistrial
@icedquinn @thendrix @b6hydra @freemo who is jack p. It is posobeic is it? That guy is a retard and id becareful to take anything he says serious
@Boomerman @b6hydra @freemo @icedquinn Yeah, I'd take his word over MSM. He's got a much more stellar track record.
@thendrix @b6hydra @freemo @icedquinn lmao posobeic is a retard and anything he says should be taken with a huge grain of salt. Hes a total faggot and possibly a fed.
@Boomerman @icedquinn @b6hydra @freemo Possibly? He worked intel in China. His only grace is he's for the old school feds -- ie against the Wokes.
@thendrix @Boomerman @b6hydra @freemo i'm not sure why its worth arguing about when whats at stake in this instance is someone might be wrong about speculating about a decision we have nothing to do with :cirno_sip:

:blobcathammer:  

@thendrix @Boomerman @b6hydra @freemo

nothing says irony like violent anarchists threatening a jurist over a case about shooting violent anarchists
@Ottovonshitpost @icedquinn @Boomerman @b6hydra @freemo Nah, he didn't get the rank of Possibly. But you win the round with the closest answer.
