Attorney in world watched Rittenhouse trial claims rifles not left/right handed

What an absolute, out and out lie that should have been cut off by the judge. But there was probably nobody in the entire courtroom that knew it was a fabrication except Rittenhouse himself.

Did you know hollow points explode?

A firearms expert would have been nice in this trial, just based on issues raised.

AR-15 rifles ARE generally "right handed". Modern examples typically have a built in brass deflector to protect lefties (and to give a consistent ejection angle for brass, generally). You can add things like ambidextrous safeties and charging handles.

All the crazy testimony about bullets and "steel jacketed" (quote by judge on facts not in evidence, at least not in presence of the jury, thankfully) shows the absolute dearth of knowledge about firearms. Their close proximity to Chicago and rural, hunting Wisconsin suggests it shouldn't be that bad there.

How was the defense's closing argument?

I used full metal jacket on turkeys. While head shot preferred out to a hundred yards. I could take a turkey at 140 by butt shooting. A larger target, did not bounce like a head, and the damage was limited to the gizzard

I watch a good bit of the trial. They did a deep dive into "Scary bullets" when Kyle was on the stand. I kept waiting for the prosecutor to make the jump from FMJ to Hollow point "defense" rounds. I could hear it going like this, "If you were trying to defend yourself, why didn't you use hollow point bullets?"

Thankfully, they were too stupid to draw the conclusion....

I would say most rifles are righthanded which is why I built my own AR-15 bc I shoot long guns lefthanded. Yes you can find lefthanded long guns but it was easier to build my own....until my boat accident of course.

This idiot prosecutor has obviously never heard of Stag Arms, which is probably the largest maker of left handed ARs.

You’d think he would have a duty to do some research before spouting off his suckhole.

Well being a left handed shooter and shooting mostly right handed guns my whole life I can say he’s partially correct.

Left-handed guns aren't for left-handed people. They're for people who are left-eye dominant.

We know he's corrupt and justifies like a woman but the defense should've had an expert on their witness list like the Attorney above said so.

That would've kept the scale of bs spewed by the ADA a bit smaller.
