New Strategy From Rittenhouse Defense Team; He Was Just Hunting

You asked:
What if someone went into Washington DC on January 6th, and started shooting protesters breaking into the Capitol.
I said:
As they were supposedly heavily armed, they'd shoot back.

When you have response relevant to what I said, let me know.
The crowd was committing a crime. So their shooting back would not be self defense. And the citizen going into washington to protect the capitol would be free to take out those in the crowd both breaking into the building, and those shooting back.
 
If the lefty militia type was standing there, in clear view, defending the building, in an attempt to deter any attack, and only using force once an attack is made, then yes.

If the lefty militia type was hidden in a blind, waiting for some excuse to open up, hoping for it, and not wanting to discourage it, then no.


It is worth noting, of course, that Rittenhouse was not even at the building when attacked and tried to run away, repeatedly.
Actually let's stick to a "real" situation. Citizens watching the attack on the Capitol on January 6th on TV, came to the defense of the Capitol, by bringing arms, and shooting protesters they see breaking into the building, or protesters attacking capitol police officers.

Would you be O.K. with that?
 
The crowd was committing a crime.
So you agree: they would shoot back.
Glad we' got that straight.
How do you think that would go?

And now, to your point:
Correction:
Some of the crowd was committing a crime.
So their shooting back would not be self defense.
As only some of the corwd was comitting a crime, this is not at all necessarily true.
 
Correction:

As only some of the corwd was comitting a crime, this is not at all necessarily true.

As you admit some in the crowd were committing crimes, then you would agree it proper to use deadly force to stop them from committing crimes that put people in danger of life or limb.

Your hypothetical fantasies are not 'real'. The topic at hand is. All this deflection just proves how out of your depth you are.
 
Kyle is not being charged with an OSHA violation, you fucking dumbass anti-civil rights authoritarian moron.
You claimed that Kyle had been given instruction, and said the definition was ambiguous. Well federal code defines instruction, and your example comes nowhere close to meeting any government definition of instruction.
 
LOL

It's not ambiguous just because you say it is. A course of instruction requires instruction on handling a firearm.

Show evidence that occurred...
The evidence is on video. He is clearly obeying the instructions of an adult. And that's besides the point. The state must prove that traditional instruction never occurred. They have to prove a negative.

The crooked prosecutor is just wasting taxpayer money.

The prosecutor should be disbarred for malicious prosecution.

My example is the most probable case of armed citizens coming to the defense of the Capitol. They watched the Capitol being broken into in real time on TV. And it would be reasonable for them to take it upon themselves to come to the defense of their Capitol.

The 2nd amendment isn't just to oppose the government, but to also protect it.

It's your fantasy, as the event actually happened, and none of what you are saying did.

What do think would happen, had these supposed armed citizen-defenders of the government opened fire into the crowd of 30,000 heavily armed protestors, the overhwelming majority of who were committing no crime?

Actually both as a matter of logic, and as a matter of law, the defense has to prove the elements an affirmative defense against the prosecutions documentary case. They have photos of Kyle in possession.

Would you be O.K. with that?
Sure, if they reasonably believed that someone's life was in danger and deadly force was necessary to stop it.

Would you?
 
As you admit some in the crowd were committing crimes, then you would agree it proper to use deadly force to stop them from committing crimes that put people in danger of life or limb.
Again, if they reasonably believed that someone's life is in imminent danger and deadly force is necessary to prevent it, then yes.

Would you?
 
The evidence is on video. He is clearly obeying the instructions of an adult. And that's besides the point.
WOW. Had a police officer told Kyle to put his hands up. You would claim he was obeying the instructions of an adult? And that would qualify his possession of the weapon?
 
If a private citizen can arm himself to protect the private property of a stranger. You should surely defend the same of a private citizen doing the same to protect government property, which he has an actual stake in.
Yes, if said private citizen was reasonable in believing that such deadly force was necessary to prevent serious bodily injury or death. .....again.

Let's say, for example, one of the protestors set a rolling dumpster on fire and was attempting to shove the dumpster into the capital building to set it on fire. Yes, I think it would be reasonable to use deadly force to stop it. That could result in serious injury or death.

Would you be okay with that?
 
Yes -- they have to show Kyle had a reasonable faear for his life.
They have ample video to this effect.
The fact that he is actually running for his life pretty much negates the need for stand your ground, which Wisconsin does not have. He was attempting to retreat.

The fact that this matter is even going to trial is as big of an injustice as I can imagine. This is political persecution.
