Putting Rittenhouse on the stand wasn’t a good idea

He’s doing fine. Not sure why everyone is bitching about it. Showing he’s a kid with intentions to be helpful and was attacked and had to defend himself.

Shouldn’t have been there but he didn’t do anything wrong.

Kyle is crushing this idiot.

This trial was over at lunch. Just a matter of time now.

Because the burden of proof shifts to defendant if using an affirmative defense like self defense.

Although you could see from the video that it looks like self defense, he needed to ultimately testify that he believed he was in imminent danger. He needed to establish fear of harm. Would be hard to do without his testimony since Rosenbaum was not in possession of a weapon.

That’s my guess.

If I'm charged with some stupid bullshite, you better believe I'm talking the stand in my defense.

Only Democrats hide behind the 5th amendment bullshite.

The fix is in on this case. There will be riots if he gets off and the jury knows that. You can bet the wrong people know jury identities and addresses. Word will get to the jury about the dangers to them and their families if he is acquitted. No matter how bad the prosecution botches the trial, he will be convicted.

You're wrong. He has established self-defense.

I would not have. He looks like a defenseless kid on the side, but significantly tougher on the stand.

I bet those lib prosecutors couldn't wait to get ahold of that 18 yo boy. F them to hell.
