Exactly, this isn’t going downtown so you carry a knife for protection cause you just never know what could happen.
It was a track meet and if he felt threatened enough to carry a knife why was he walking around into other tents creating drama?

This attitude that white people want harm to befall black people is the fault of the media.


It’s not dissimilar to how the KKK used to stir up poor white trash making them believe blacks were going to harm them and/or were the cause of their problems. It’s a favorite page of the Dem’s identity playbook. Make them all victims to their opposition, and then keep their focus on their “villain” instead of how much they don’t like each other or think that they are not getting as much as other groups in the Dem identity spectrum. If fighting starts amongst themselves then find something on Trump or white people to blow up out of proportion to redirect their focus.

The media and the left have empowered the ignorant and violent black trash more than helping any blacks who were truly held back by discrimination which already had decades of affirmative action, quotas, specific programs for blacks, constant race card played to get stuff, out of proportion generational welfare, and so on.

That was the actual point behind my sarcasm in that post.

Completely agree.

Just for devil’s advocate arguing sakes, how can this be proven differently in court to what Kyle rittenhouse did? Brought the weapon with him to where agitators were, was approached and shot and killed. Self defense in the eyes of the court, other than multiple people vs just one, what’s the argument against self defense if the other one was

I’m sure there are other reasons but off the top of my head:
KRs attackers had actual deadly weapons they were using on him.
KR was minding his own business and was “attacked” by a mob
KR was in a public place while legally & openly brandishing a weapon and he was still attacked.

The Metcalf boys weren't agitating.. they were in their designated tent.

Yup those are definitely different scenarios. I’d be very surprised if this verdict took very long. Not sure what the video evidence has either

I just don’t see how a jury gets beyond the fact that he brought a knife to a track meet and then proceeded to go confront another team at their tent.
My understanding from a poster here whose child goes to that school was that there was beef between the boys. If that’s true then it’s hard not to see that KA brought the knife with the intent of starting an altercation which would them give him an excuse to stab him.
Which is what he did.

I thought I read the two had not had any previous interactions. If they had then it’s going to be even quicker from the jury imo

It was specifically stated by the poster in question (LSUgirl I think) that they had ongoing beef.
Maybe it wasn’t accurate but it makes sense that they did have beef. It’s hard to imagine things got that heated that quickly without prior interaction. Typically teenage boys will posture for a good 5 min before anything actually happens. And boys these days are far more reluctant to fight. I have an 18 yo and he says there are never fights. When I was a kid there were fights literally every day.

Works on Joos and Israel too, for the (D) and (R) playbooks.

Ignorance doesn’t know skin tone. Like it or don’t like it, a lot of dark skin tones don’t care about honesty, facts or truth.

The most famous quote regarding the "Southern Strategy" comes from a candid, off-the-record 1981 interview with Republican political strategist Lee Atwater. He detailed how the Republican Party shifted its messaging in the South from explicit racism to abstract, race-neutral policies that achieved the same electoral results. In a 1981 interview, Lee Atwater outlined a shift in political strategy: "You start out in 1954 by saying, 'N——, n——, n——.' By 1968 you can't say 'n—— '—that hurts you, backfires. So you say stuff like, uh, forced busing, states' rights, and all that stuff...". He explained that by focusing on seemingly neutral issues like taxes, the desired, racially disparate impact was still achieved without using explicit racial slurs.



Wal Mart Republicanism. MAGA is the ultimate outcome. They are in fact the Dixiecrats of yesteryear.

A little out of context... even wiki has a more balanced take on that interview. Nice cherry picking, tho.

So if I'm reading this right there was an initial push from AM and the stabbing didn't happen until 4 minutes later?

Surprise surprise

Thug stabbed him because of disrespect

We already knew it wasn't self defense but that makes it blatantly obvious

I’d say they should have released the video right away to show the lies from the BLM crowd so people would see it for what it was but we had that for Kyle Rittenhouse and those same morons were still trying to defend the mob.
