Jesus, when did you turn into such a right wing shill?

Your posts are intellectually indistinguishable from Mott's and the other crazies lately.
Right. Because the rioters who burn down cities are all a bunch of Einsteins.

Uncontroverted evidence has been presented that:

1. Rosenbaum threatened to kill him, threw something at him and grabbed his gun before Rittenhouse shot him.

2. Huber hit Rittenhouse in the head with a skateboard (at least once, but maybe twice) and still had the skateboard and would presumably have kept hitting him.

3. Grosskreutz aimed a pistol at him.

There is zer ...[text shortened]... the judge must. Convicting him would make a mockery of our burden of proof in criminal cases rules.
Only Rittenhouse said Rosenbaum threatened to kill him. No one else corroborated that claim even Rittenhouse's fellow vigilante said Rosenbaum was not a threat. The defendant admitted he pointed his gun at the victim before the latter lunged at it. This is clearly a question of fact for the jury, not you or the judge, to decide.

Your lack of knowledge of the rules of self-defense and ridiculous bias are all too clear.

"Burn down cities" again.

Did you steal Earl's crib notes?

No, I watched CNN footage of the mostly peaceful protests.

It's only an admission if you don't buy his explanation.

You're entitled to determine whether you buy it, but it's not a settled issue.
It's an admission under the Rules of Evidence. https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/admission_against_interest

Later self-serving claims don't change that.

Could you give a list of the cities that were "burned down"?

I thought his testimony was that he said "I did". Was there a "yeah" in there? Wasn't there also something about pointing a laser? I thought I heard that.

Anyway Hernandez just said a while ago that he didn't ever observe Kyle acting aggressively to anyone.
The group that Rittenhouse was with was crouched on top of the car lot in sniper position pointing guns at people in the road according to numerous news reports.

It's a right wing thing now to point guns at others and expect no legal repercussions.

That's for purposes of hearsay. The rule you cited is also unnecessary here. ANY statement made by Rittenhouse is admissible under 801(d)(2) anyway (or its WI equivalent in this case).

That has nothing to do whether he actually meant to "admit" that he pointed his gun at anyone.

Yes, for legal purposes it's an "admission" just like I said. It's an out of court statement against his interest.

Rittenhouse was not on the roof. Is there some evidence that he was pointing his gun at people?

Also I thought Kyle's big buddy testified that Joe Rosenbaum said to a group of people, with Kyle present, that if Roseenbaum caught any of them alone he would kill them,.

@Sleepyguy

These people who are against Rittenhouse haven't watched the trial.

Anyone who did watch it has seen it was self defense.

The prosecution did all of the work for the defense.

Hilarious coming from the lefty who always sides with dead thugs, and juries never agree with.
