Poll of the Day > Wait, Gaige Grosskreutz CHASED Kyle with his gun in hand?!

(+) Yeah! (+)

wtf how is he not getting charged?

pretty sure its not illegal to run towards an active shooter

---

It is pretty insane, given that Gaige chased (and might have been one of the initial instigators), assaulted, and then tried to murder Rittenhouse. At a minimum, he should have been charged with attempted false imprisonment or one of the dozen things the accomplices in the Aubery case got charged with.

1) How many alts do you need?

2) The only reason Rittenhouse shot anybody was because he was being chased and assaulted by, among other people, a man with a handgun who tried to execute the teenager.

Who shot once he was agressed by the usual leftist mob crazies who actively threatened his life, you might have forgotten to mention that part, not that anyone with a shred of unbiased honesty is remotely shocked.

He destroyed his civil case during the criminal trial.

its not like a shooting happens and everyone around immediately knows the facts of what is happening, they only know they are in a dangerous situation where shots have been fired

---

Gaige had a criminal history (surprise, hes a rioter) prior to approaching Kyle with the intent to kill him. Apparently there was also a deleted tweet or post where Grosskreutz only regret was that he didnt unload the whole handgun magazine into Kyle.
Deranged and dangerous, this person should obviously be prosecuted for attempted murder.

You guys are gonna trigger another meltdown for poor mead here. Take it easy.

Plus he is a felon that is not even allowed to have guns to begin with. That is a felony right there. Although I am sure he will eventually be charged, just when things cool down.

False imprisonment may be a stretch though, he could argue he had reasonable cause, but there is no way getting around the gun charge

he's not a felon lmao.

Yeah, he was a convicted felon, but his record was expunged for some reason. Kinda confusing. I don't know why his felony was expunged

So you keep contradicting yourself. If his record was expunged then hes no longer consider a felon regarding weapons ownership. Which is it? Is he a felon or not?

are you being dense on purpose?

the only thing he maybe broke the law on was that his concealed carry license was expired, but he wasn't really concealing his gun anyways since it was just sticking out of his pants very plainly obvious, but that can be considered concealed despite it not really being concealed

There is no "not really being concealed." That's concealed. No ambiguity in concealment claim when you shove a handgun in the small of your back under your shirt.

too bad all the witnesses said it wasn't being hidden by his shirt huh

it's also irrelevant as a whole, it wasn't illegal for him to have a gun

But you don't seem to understand open carry law. If it's behind your waistband, it's not open carrying even if someone can catch a glimpse of it. It needs to be holstered outside your waistband

i know none of you have issues reading

He clearly doesn't understand a lot, but that's okay, it's his choice to live in ignorance. The man admitted to doing something illegal in court, he just hasn't been charged.

Either way, the fact that he was carrying the gun concealed means that he was technically illegally carrying a firearm

Before the woke social media crowd took over society, Rittenhouse would've never even had to go to court. It was obvious he was gonna walk. Grosskreutz would've been the one charged 15 years ago for chasing someone down and pulling a gun on them. It's actually outrageous that he hasn't been

Well thank goodness the left seems to be losing ground recently. A lot more people are realizing how dumb being "woke" is, and how crazy their agenda is. The younger generation is growing more right leaning.

Because why would you post a completely irrelevant fact unless you thought it was relevant

unfortunately, you very obviously tried applying it to something it's not relevant to and i didn't let you so now you don't know what to do, like usual

I don't really think this is true. And I really don't want people to identify as right or left anyway. But I want to see this "woke" insanity come to an end. It's gotten so that it's having a very tangible negative effect on society to the point that the courts are being effected.

Black Lives Matter. They do, of fucking course. The organization BLM is awful and full of bullies.

now i'm just wondering how you can hate on woke people despite having one of the most wokest views you can currently have these days

I'm one of the people that really doesn't care if he supports BLM or not. Has zero effect on the case. I really doubt he actually does though tbh

oh he definitely doesn't

Saying that human lives matter isn't woke... that's normal. You seem to think that just because someone doesn't agree with you politically, they're automatically racist. Do you see the problem?

Protesting unjustified police killings of people is perfectly reasonable. But when the politics involved in these protests start actively influencing who does or does not have to go to trial... then we have a problem. The real reason Rittenhouse was charged and Grosskreutz was the prosecution star witness, as opposed to being on trial himself, is because of politics

Kyle still did nothing wrong.

Ah, so Gaige's previous history is allowed to be used against him but Rittenhouse's previous history isn't (e.g. the video's the judge disallowed). Yeah, that there is hypocrisy folks.

The previous videos he made saying he wished he could shoot those suspected shoplifters says otherwise, dumbass.

He did a lot of things wrong. Based on things he was saying to people online, he was angry about the protesters near his workplace and he did not go armed to that protest with good intentions, I simply do not believe him. I think he defended himself but I dont think it should be legal for ANYONE to bring an AR15 or similar weapon to a crowded area

theres just too much tragedy that can happen as a result. Kyle isnt a hero, but he is a victim of gun violence. He shouldnt be in the news and be being both attacked and defended by crazy mobs of people on the internet

its one of those exact crazy groups that convinced him to go there with that gun. Thats established evidence. We know that to be true.

Kyle should be a regular kid doing his best to figure his life out but instead things probably wont ever be normal for him. And those people he felt forced to kill, maybe it was justified. Maybe they were out of their minds or just evil predatory people and its good that they cant hurt anyone else now.

But maybe not. Maybe they did have some value to society. I cant say, I dont know about them and I dont think the internet is a good way to learn who a person is in reality.

Because I think all human beings and all life has irrefutable value. I think those men might still be alive and may not have ever committed another crime in their lives if they hadnt seen a 17 year old strutting around with an AR15 in the middle of the night in an active riot

maybe they would have just gone the fuck home

I'm of the opinion that the verdict was correct but I can agree to all of this. I've even said to people many times that there's no reason a kid should be going to something like that with an AR. If Rittenhouse was my son there's no way I would ever support that. As a parent myself, I'd tell him to stay the fuck home

Oh you can safely ignore them. Anyone who doesn't agree with their idiotic ideologies is a racist/Nazi/white supremacist/bigot/sexist. One of them openly makes racist comments toward Caucasians and handwaves it by away by trying to convince herself you can't be racist toward white people. They're those kind of people.

They have issues. The world at large is really sick and tired of their zealot behaviors. Which is why pretty much anything woke or sjw'ish getting posted on social medias or YouTube tended to be downvoted to oblivion.

I grew up in rural Georgia and Texas mostly, so yeah, I sometimes have some racist thoughts

but I dont like or believe those thoughts. Theyre houses made of sticks in my mind based on mean things that people say to each other when they think most people cant hear them.

I prefer the houses made of solid stone that have allowed me to meet many people and hear about their experiences and hardships in life.

Among those people Ive met many are great people that I value in my mind and I hope they are theirs are doing well, although some are simply people I dont care for.

what I noticed though is that what group a person is a part of isnt a good barometer of who a person is or how they treat others. That goes for skin color or nationality, gender, sexual orientation, anything really.

I think that good people treat others well and I respect that in other people. I value it.

Your assertion that I somehow dont think you can be racist towards white people couldnt be further off base. Ive grown up in many low income areas. Ive literally been the victim of violence just for being a white kid, because kids dont need much of an excuse to abuse each other even in the best environments, and most kids in those areas dont have anything close to that.

I got over it though. Because kids are just mean and dont need to build some house of sticks to live in mentally that makes me part of some superior race(that BS is so pathetic) or that any failings in my life are somehow caused by some other specific group of people or others. In my view thats very weak minded thinking.

If you treat people well and actually care about others, most of the time life is pretty good.

So no I dont think that Im a racist but its ok if you want to think that I am. You could tag me as something funny like idk

Racist Mead
Meadcucklol
MeadPeeonMead
PeeMead

idk you could workshop it yourself whatever feels right

So I dont think
