Rittenhouse Had the Right To Be In Kenosha and To Be ‘Unmolested’ by Joseph Rosenbaum And Other Rioters—Here’s Hoping the Jury Gets It Right

This court decision will speak volumes for the Right of Self Defense, the Right to Possess a Firearm, and the Right of Peaceful Coexistence over unpoliced anarchy.

The prosecution claimed that Joseph Rosenbaum, the first man shot and killed, did not threaten Rittenhouse or try to take his gun. This, at least in part, was not a true statement. The following from redstate.com.

The prosecution also claimed Rittenhouse fired before Rosenbaum got close to him. However, this statement completely contradicts the testimony of the prosecution’s own witnesses.

The prosecutor even pointed the AR-15 with his finger on the trigger at the jury and people in the courtroom without first openly checking the gun as he talked about Rittenhouse being reckless with his gun.

WHO is the reckless one? No demonstration or sense of care about the consequences of an action? Mr. Prosecutor, your head is elsewhere–not on the weapon in your hands. You ARE the reckless one.

Compared to a closing argument that was false and all over the block, the defense was much more measured in its response.

MSNBC skipped out on that, however, only airing the prosecution’s closing and then returning to their regular programing. But of course, they didn’t want their viewers to see the truth in the defense closing.

The defense presented a much clearer case using video to back up its points and first detailed some of the prosecution’s lies. The defense attorney, Mark Richards, noted how the prosecutor hadn’t said anything about provocation as an argument against self-defense until his case “explodes in his face.”

The defense pointed out how the prosecutor lied in his opening statement about Rittenhouse chasing down Rosenbaum when it was the other way around and you could tell that from the video. He also noted how the prosecutor lied about Rosenbaum not being present at a location, showing a picture of him there. “But Mr. Binger will lie to your face,” Richards said.

The defense took the case apart piece by piece using video and the witness testimony to rebut Binger’s lies.

The defense took on the claim of the chaotic “tourist,” saying that Rittenhouse had as much right to go to Kenosha as anyone else and be “unmolested” by Joseph Rosenbaum. Um, nicely done there, defense. How to say something without saying it. (Rosenbaum had a history of sexual assault against minors.)

The defense pointed out how the media had all been false on so much of the case, citing Joe Scarborough’s comments yesterday about the case, claiming falsely, that Rittenhouse fired 60 rounds.

According to Richards, “This is a political case. The DA’s office is marching forward with this because they need somebody to be responsible.”

“Kyle Rittenhouse is not that individual,” he continued.

“The people who attacked Kyle were not “heroes,” he said. “Kyle Rittenhouse shot Mr. Rosenbaum because he was attacking Kyle. Every person who was shot was attacking Kyle. One with a skateboard, one with his hands, one with his feet and one with a gun.”
