re: #183 Wendell Zurkowitz ((slave to the waffle light))

How the fuck did Rittenhouse get the weapons claim dismissed? That one was a slam dunk and now it has been taken off the table.

He was “hunting.” If so, it is an admission of intent to kill, and invalidates self-defense.

We have to face the fact that we are dealing with honest-to-god fascist murderers and will eventually have to take appropriate measures. Shaming them has no effect, argument has no effect (since they know they are lying and actually take pride in it). You cannot call them bullies, since they think a bully is a good thing to be.
I think we are all beginning to understand what it will take. It speaks well of us; the rational, progressive majority; that we recoil from it. That will not change the facts, or the hard realities of self preservation.
