I was curious about this so I did a little research:

https://www.statista.com/statistics/585152/people-shot-to-death-by-us-police-by-race/

Interesting numbers. Obviously there's a disproportionate number of minorities in that list, but given all of the screeching in the last year, I would have figured it was far more biased. This leads credence to my point about police brutality being an accountability issue rather than a racism issue.

only BT would observe that a disproportinate amount of minorities is killed by the police and conclude that "this leads credence to my point that the police isn't racist."

Well, it isn't that surprising when you look at the statistics of crime committed by race. The lesson here is that people either don't understand statistics, or ignore them when it doesn't suit their preferred political tribe's narrative

It's funny how every liberal is talking about how corrupt and rigged this case is and every conservative is talking about how obvious this result was from the start.

The only thing they agree on is that he will be found not guilty. Lol. (Every is hyperbole)

Rittenhouse Trial Update

The first witness Defense called was a video expert who showed the exact seconds that it took between everything. But first, Binger objected because he "made character assumptions" with video by titling them "lunge" and "strike" as though that actually means anything. This included the Judge saying "is there a reason for that face?" when Binger gave him a shitty look and literally said, "Judge, I've had your ire yesterday, so I would like to please ask that you treat both of us the same." Literally "JUDGE PLEASE STOP BULLYING ME FOR VIOLATING CONSTITUTIONAL RULES AND BLATENTLY DISREGARDING YOUR RULINGS!" And the Judge was like "I was chastising you for violating a constitutional rule that has been here for 50 years and has nothing to do with that discussion." The Judge then said, "Hey how long does it take to change the name of these video files?" "Like five minutes." "Okay then change the video file names and we'll go forward."

So the guy goes through each video to the millisecond of time it took between shots. This basically blows the fuck out of the Prosecution because he spent FOREVER talking about "Kyle, why did you decide to do this?" And presenting the slow-mo footage and trying to present that everything happened so unbelievably fast, which was important. My only criticism is that the Defense didn't make this point until AFTER the very dry testimony. Anyway, in case anyone was wondering, it was 1 second with all of the shots Kyle fired into Rosenbaum, and between the shot on Huber and the shot on Grosskuertz, it was 6.5 seconds, and overall from when Kyle was attacked to the time that Kyle had disengaged after the second set of shootings, it was only 3.5 minutes. This was pretty damaging to Binger's case.

Binger opens by questioning how much he's being paid (lol) and then this footage that he's been using all trial to make his case, he tried to discredit by asking the man who originally recorded it. It's freaking wild. He had not much of anything.

The next person was the detective who got all the bullets and Grosskuertz's gun from the second shooting. She testified all the bullets were accounted for that were shot and there were no bullets from the rifle that weren't shot, which lends to Kyle not racking the gun (like Grosskuertz has lied about and the video footage does not show him racking it at all), and to Binger's credit he got her to say that racking the gun doesn't necessarily mean that the bullet isn't used (just usually very unlikely).

And now they have a right-leaning dude who went to all the violent protests that were happening. Very well-spoken and smart, despite whatever political affiliation he has. The footage spoke for itself and his testimony was outstanding for Kyle and backed up entirely by his footage. Proved that Rosenbaum absolutely went for the gun and wasn't falling on it like the Prosecution claimed.

And then Binger comes on and tries a bunch of impotent discrediting statements and was like "OKAY BUT HOW DO YOU KNOW THEY WERE RIOTERS?" "Because they were rioting, as clearly seen on the footage we were just watching." Like Binger was just awful here and so untrustworthy and the guy is a professional speaker. He kept trying to appeal to "He's a conservative so he's biased here." Really strange to bring up this is a political trial to the Jury when it's clear they have no evidence this should have gone to trial. And then he attempted to bring up that he hired the same law firm for a video dump that an expert retained. And the Judge got pissed, sent the jury to lunch, then was very close to reaming out Binger again because he's trying to violate attorney-client privilege laws now.

The Judge is allowing him a little rope to discuss this, and knowing Binger he's very likely to get his ass chewed out when he oversteps again. That's my prediction. But honestly, there's no bias here because a phone information dump is no big deal at all and it wasn't like he was talking with them about the lawfirm. He already testified that the Prosecution also had the videos and did nothing with them (obviously).

The Jury hates Binger. The Judge has had to send them away during his cross examinations at least five times now. He looks slimy and unreasonable and untrustworthy. There is no way the Jury has any reason to legitimately believe he's acting in good faith, especially after that miserable cross examination of Kyle yesterday.

Yes and no.

They just have no facts in this case and it shouldn't have gone to trial. At this point, the Prosecution is just trying their best to make the Jury do anything to convict him, but unfortunately there's nothing here they can do but appeal to emotions and try scummy tactics.

Unfortunately for him, the Judge is seeing right through all of it though, which means he's a good Judge. He's been more than fair, no matter what anyone says. It's just the Prosecution is doing so much bad faith acting he has no choice but to chastise them constantly.

So when you see Binger here acting like a total idiot, it's out of desperation, not necessarily because he actually is an idiot. Everything he does is because it's literally the best case scenario for him at this point.

It's just good to be disgusted and laugh at him because he's a Prosecutor and the majority of them are scum, and he has a particular arrogance about him and seeing him humiliate himself over this case is really satisfying.

lmao Gaige Grosskreutz is such a lying piece of shit. "Hey Grosskreutz, want to come on Good Morning America to attempt to salvage your civil case?" I loved "It was my lifelong duty to help people" when he was convicted for a violent burglary and isn't working as an EMT.

I love that it ends with "WOW, HE WASN'T POINTING HIS GUN LIKE OTHER PEOPLE SAID." He literally admitted on the stand that he did so. I'm thinking he wants to drum up stuff for a civil case against Rittenhouse.

This trial is a great example of what happens when you let mob mentality try to dictate how the criminal justice system works. I'm actually surprised the Chauvin trial went down as it did, given how ballsy it was to go after a murder charge instead of the more appropriate manslaughter, but I think the people involved in that trial were more concerned about more riots than they were about laying appropriate charges.

I saw somewhere that people were calling the 3 people Rittenhouse shot pedophile/abuser and such, and wow, I had not actually seen any of this:

https://www.snopes.com/news/2020/09/11/rittenhouse-victims-records/

tl;dr Rosenbaum was jailed for 15 years for sexually assaulting 5 children while Huber threatened and assaulted his brother/sister/grandmother. Grosskreutz only had minor items on his rap sheet, aside from one occurence of him being drunk while armed, so not sure where you're getting the violent robbery from.

So the lawyer is playing into the perception that the trial is unfair and that's why he is failing.

It sounds like the guy is trying to create good sound bites to make the trial look less legitimate so him losing wont matter. Same for why he brought up the witness being conservative. It's not for the jury at this point, it's for the public that will just see the clips with no context

Welp, this is the last update on the Defense of Kyle Rittenhouse.

So Binger didn't bother going back to going after the witness' attorneys because he knew it was thin ice. But that's okay because I finally get to say one thing nice about Prosecutor Binger. The break did him good because the reporter they got was kind of a dope and just made himself look bad because he couldn't stop saying "rioter" in every answer. He didn't like Binger, and it was clear, and even though the Jury and everyone on the planet doesn't like Binger, he still came across like kind of a dope who didn't have great answers to his leading questions. It felt more like he was trying to avoid being trapped? I dunno, but good laugh half of that cross examination for Binger. A very rare W for him.

They got the visual guy from earlier in the day back on to finish up his testimony. Nothing noteworthy came of it.

So that's it then. After this, they had a big ado about letting in blurry ass over enhanced grainy drone footage. I mentioned yesterday Prosecution needed to prove that the images they wanted to bring in would be accurate, because they wanted to show them to the Jury and go "This is Kyle Rittenhouse aiming his gun before he's chased." They could not find an expert, despite the visual guy I mentioned being right there. So they went with the guy who enhanced it that works for the state. This poor asshole was grilled and demolished by the Defendant and asked repeatedly his knowledge, what happens when you use this software to zoom in. Basically, they distinctly proved that they create more pixels and an algorithm guesses what color it is. So basically, if you have an already blurry and grainy image, enhance it, and you get something even more blurry and grainy.

So after destroying this man, the big boy Prosecutor who got completely killed on cross two days ago tried to make a case and lead him into the answers he wanted, but it was clear this guy knew nothing about it but didn't want to give the wrong answers and didn't compare images and check to see if it's accurate. So the Defense then argues "This guy knows nothing and you asked them to get an expert because there's no expert to back up what they're saying, so they got this guy again."

This absolute fucking asshole Prosecutor goes "Your Honor, with all due respect I think the Defense is trying to take advantage of your lack of knowledge." And he gets all pissed off and shitty and keeps accusing the Defense of bad faith here. Absolutely unprofessional. But what's even more insane? More maddening? Eventually the Judge walks up there and has to put his face against the big TV they have to even see what he's talking about. And despite Prosecution not making any sort of convincing case, the Judge allowed it. Absolutely mind-blowing stuff. Even the Judge admitted he didn't really trust them. I cannot understand this.

But I will hear no more further bullshit about this Judge being biased. Not a single other word. I can't explain why this was let in or allowed. I'm profoundly confused. I think maybe he wanted to prove he's not biased or wanted to throw them a bone. But who cares, idiots on social media still want him to lose his job because he made a joke about he hopes his Asian food doesn't come overseas because of the shipping delays everywhere.

So they rehash this in front of the Jury so they know that this image is full of bullshit, since the Defense argued with this "expert witness" again and made the same points that the images they would be shown are absolute trash and he did no due diligence to ensure they were accurate. I posted one of the images in question that is supposed to definitely show that Kyle raised his gun before he was chased. Absolute clown shit. The only thing I can think of is the Judge is going to be like "They're going to argue this is definitive proof on their closing statement and their arguments have been absolute madness so far and the Jury will see through it." This is a hail mary among hail mary's. Imagine you're on trial for something and your innocence relied on that picture.

And that's it. They may or may not televise tomorrow's stuff, but the Jury will come back for closing arguments on Monday. They're hashing out jury instructions and other boring legal stuff in preparation for it tomorrow. No Jury will be there.

Worth noting is that the Judge was like "Okay, I'll let you go on Monday, but please for the love of god do me a favor and keep it to one hour." And the Binger talked him into letting them have two and a half hours each to talk for their closing argument. About WHAT? There is nothing to his argument at all. I don't know what he can possibly whine about for two and a half hours that the Jury won't want to smash their heads off the table to make it end. So look forward to me likely being a grumpy boy on Monday, I guess.

I don't anticipate I'll have much to say tomorrow, if it's even televised. But that's a wrap for the witnesses.

So here's more images they also presented. This is why they wanted to be able to enhance and zoom in further. I have seen this dude's name thrown around, but I don't know him or care, but this illustrates the amount of scumminess going on with these images.

Comparison between both the original already enhanced one, and the further enhanced one.

https://twitter.com/JackPosobiec/status/1458919593355919363?s=20

Comparison between the video from a second prior and then where they've stopped their image on.

https://twitter.com/Evollove19Mac/status/1458932653831372805?s=20

They basically had this guy work like a mad man over the weekend to find a moment in this footage where, if further enhanced, it can look like Kyle is holding a rifle up because it's so much more blurry. And even then, Kyle would be holding the rifle in his opposite hand in these images too.

Imagine that the Prosecutor wants to wrongfully put someone in jail this badly he's willing to do this.

Honestly, the most frustrating part about this is how it's obviously going to attract so many right wing bad actors for this, because of course, but they don't even have to try hard for any grifts.

But the left wing media has been so impossible insane about this to the point it feels like parody of what's actually happening. Like I can't even look to any left leaning sources because it's all a complete circus for anything important or clips or anything.

Seems like a weird take given the context of his speech but its the NY POST so of course they go for the right wing talking point headline.

Biden said that more products are being delivered than ever before thats because people have a little more breathing room than they did last year. And thats a good thing. But it also means weve got higher demand for goods at the same time were facing disruptions in the supplies to make those goods.

Earlier Wednesday, Biden urged Congress to tackle the highest annual inflation rate since 1990 by approving a bill with nearly $2 trillion in new social and environmental spending. That spending arguably would be paid for by tougher and broader IRS enforcement and new taxes on businesses and the rich.

Imo the source and context dont matter as much as that headline being more fodder for radical centrists to say reduce government spending.

His reasoning was wrong, but Trump was right that the media causes a lot of our problems (we could go into a whole side-discussion about how money is the cause, but yeah)

Oh that part is 100% true. But the thing is my current position is "who the fuck cares what they think" because that is going to be their take no matter what is going on. And NY Post is going to find some way to twist headlines to fit that narrative anyway.

Biden is at least saying the right sort of stuff if you look into it past their hysteria. Like his solution is an even bigger spending bill with social and environmental spending with sounds A+ to me.

That sounds ok, I just have zero faith in his ability to push it past Manchin and Sinema, unfortunately.
