Relevance?
would that also not provoke a reaction at a BLM protest? Is that not a sign of instability?
No idea what you're trying to say here.
Is the Arbery trial on hold? No one is discussing it.
What was the threatening person strolling down the street behind a number of protesters that happened to include 3 people who decided to coordinate an ambush carrying and saying that made him seem so threatening and instigating one of them into shooting a firearm, and the other to chase and lunge at him (while the other cheer led the attack) after he fled after saying 'friendly friendly friendly' to them?
if you are paying attention you'd know.
It could but anyone reacting to it would have to hear it. Rittenhouse's appearance would provoke on sight.
That is not a protestor. Any protestor would immediately recognize this person as a threat.
Ticking along.
Here's a 'local' paper's great coverage...

He looks like the sort of person that Rosenbaum might attack
Here's a gem from one of the necks to the detective who arrived on scene at the Arbery murder...
Greg McMichael, armed in the bed of his son’s Ford F-150 pickup during the chase, said he would have shot Arbery too, if he could have, according to the transcript read aloud by Brandeberry in court.
“To be perfectly honest with you, if I could’ve got a shot at the guy, I’d have shot him myself,” Greg McMichael told the detective. He added that they had told Arbery repeatedly to stop as he ran from the McMichaels and Bryan.

i.e., obviously threatening.

People that make that judgment on instinct under heightened tensions can claim to do it in self defence. To sit there and write those words in the cold light of day, without any actual danger triggering that thought…that’s next level. The ideal response to someone being aggressive to you is to kill them. feck me sideways.
Testimony that Rosenbaum was yelling 'I'm not afraid to go back to jail', 'shoot me n******' & had to be held back from being physically violent with people going on at the moment
No, a poor child who was not a child because he was only 3 months from 18 who also was not local but was local who illegally had a legal gun he legally could not have. Sorry, keeping all the caveats straight is warping my mind.
I may be over-emotional about this man because I read his criminal history online, but Rittenhouse has a valid self defence claim against him from the evidence given so far.
Then they referred to cornering Arbery 'like a rat.'
These necks thought they were well within their rights to murder a young black man simply due to him entering a house under construction multiple times. It is absolutely mindboggling.
Has his pedophilia been brought up in court yet or was that ruled inadmissible?
Does Drainy want to shag this kid or something.
The sheriffs wearing body cams and microphones is a saving grace in this so far.
inadmissible.
Are you saying Rittenhouse isn't racist?
There was an old AJC article referencing one of the necks calling Arbery the 'n' word when speaking to one of the officers. I can't find it right now & have no idea if it has been discussed in court yet or not.
woaaaaah there. He’s just super super objective and interested in the nuances and technicalities of the legal system which will hopefully see this chubby cheeked cherub walk free.
Silly @nimic , everyone knows the only way to be racist is to use the n word. Everything else is banter.
I saw something in the NY Times or WaPO that suggested Rittenhouse was supportive of the intent of the protests but not the rioting and destruction of property.
I think that's in your first link as well:
Fairly easy to guess what "This guy's an [expletive]" means. Even if the use of an is trying to disguise it.
I will say this in a partial defense of @Drainy if he/she is an attorney. My sister is a lawyer and a lot of her law school friends who went on to become defense attorneys get off on this kind of shit. The more despicable the defendant the bigger the high if they could get the jury to acquit.
I can't find specifics right now, but I know he's been posing with known far-right figures in the aftermath of this incident. He's also a huge MAGA supporter and Blue Lives Matter supporter, and obviously as we all know he ended up taking an AR-15 to some race-related demonstrations. I am not aware of anything he's said, but he doesn't fill me with brotherly confidence.
Completely missed that, but, yep, the article used would be incorrect in this case.
But we are in coastal Georgia down here, correct grammar ain't that high on the importance scale. And the 'n' word is bandied about without much care either.
I don't agree with that sentiment. If there is evidence that Rittenhouse planned any of this, or was acting aggressively towards someone who attacked him, in the same way the McMichaels should be found guilty (from evidence shown so far) I'd say he should be found guilty.
So far the only things negative from him in interactions with protesters until Rosenbaum attacked him were 'I love you too' when a woman said 'feck you', and a hearsay allegation of pointing his gun at yellow pants man that McGinnis was asking him about but is uncorroborated so far
According to this site (it's the only one I could find not censored) the word was "asshole"
Greg McMichael Called Ahmaud Arbery an 'Asshole': Cop (lawandcrime.com)
It's irrelevant because 1) you can't always trust someone saying "friendly, friendly" or claiming to be offering medical assistance while brandishing an AR-15 at the ready position and 2) the "friendly" claims happened after Ritten was already following them and accelerated himself straight into this group that you claim is trying to "coordinate an ambush. The only time the video appears to show him shouting medical was before it looks like he even reached the Rosemblaum group so its entirely possible they didn't even hear that claim from Rittenhouse.
Even granting your characterization of the victim and other protesters, it just shows how reckless Rittenhouse was behaving that night charging right into a situation that he either A) completely lacked the situational awareness to understand how reckless he was behaving or B) didn't care. As the photo that Dwazza posted, Rittenhouse's appearance brandishing the AR-15 itself appears extremely threatening and provoking. That person following and then accelerating in pursuit would, to me, be an extremely threatening action and in this case it was clearly reckless behavior.

And some more context on another of the armed militia that testified, an avowed "boogaloo boi" (look them up). But hey, these guys testifying, boogaloo bois and Daily Caller contributors have no bias at all and would never slant their testimony in any way whatsoever.

You've still not proven yourself to me. What was he carrying along with the gun?
by the way, ignore the grosskreutz cross for entertainment, watch this current guy's cross from the prosecutor.
Holy hell this trial is entertaining.

Just Curious. if I shoot someone dead and his mates see me do it and attack me, which prompts me to shoot them in self defense, is only the first one a murder and the rest something less?
The chunky prosecutor is getting into a full on argument with a seemingly autistic man. This is surreal
