So, the police would have been completely justified in shooting this guy, right? Yes or no?

Steve, in the interests of fairness, the video appears to show, how such  arrests should be handled. So good police.  But your point is well taken.

The Rittenhouse kid was in Wisconsin illegally. He was breaking the law just being there. He was a criminal just being there, underage with a gun. There isn't any 'but' , you can't be innocent while being a criminal. You can't be "defending property" while being a criminal and it be okay. 

Trump and co. are dog whistling, suggesting that the Rittenhouse terrorist, was in some way mitigated, in his behaviour.

Imagine if the Rittenhouse terrorist, was Black, or Muslim, or Russian.

I think I've said before, that I value the efforts, of those people who serve in the military, and those who have been in action, for their selflessness and sacrifice, so that I and others, may live the lives we have.

So it is with some disgust, that I post the following, from the leader, of what was formerly, a shining light in the world.

"

...The president has repeatedly disparaged the intelligence of service members, and asked that wounded veterans be kept out of military parades

...Why should I go to that cemetery? It’s filled with losers

...on the same trip, Trump referred to the more than 1,800 marines who lost their lives at Belleau Wood as “suckers” for getting killed

...who were the good guys in this war?

...When McCain died, in August 2018, Trump told his senior staff, according to three sources with direct knowledge of this event, “We’re not going to support that loser’s funeral,” and he became furious, according to witnesses, when he saw flags lowered to half-staff. “What the fuck are we doing that for? Guy was a fucking loser,” the president told aides. Trump was not invited to McCain’s funeral.

(The president did not serve in the military; he received a medical deferment from the draft during the Vietnam War because of the alleged presence of bone spurs in his feet. In the 1990s, Trump said his efforts to avoid contracting sexually transmitted diseases constituted his “personal Vietnam.”)

Ah..you saw through my post. haha...the post was really about given the same exact set of circumstances, I, for example, would be shot quickly and it be excused. I dare say, had the cops simply said, enough of this and shot the guy, early on, there  would be outrage.

At this point, NOTHING the cops say can be taken as fact unless they have non police witnesses or a body cam. I notice they didn't have body cams on for this arrest. You would think it would be protocol.

Right wingers are trying to outdo each other on who can promote violence without actually promoting violence. Some are failing miserably. I'm looking for the same rhetoric on the left. I haven't seen any or much, but I suspect there are some voices out there. It would only make sense. The overwhelming number of people hinting and dog whistling are from the right.
