This picture is after Captain America legally defended himself. Not much of a bicep to begin with.

- Thread starter mandrill

So how did that "Red Wave" turn out for you and your man Rogan, Orry?

Some of the Trump cases will get somewhere. Most are political stunts. The lawsuit against Rittenhouse will go nowhere and is a political stunt.
But what happened to the Rittenhouse mega lawsuit against CNN that you formerly posted about repeatedly? You know, the lawsuit that was going to destroy the "Radical Left" and make the "Hive" weep and sob?
You posted about that a whole bunch, Orry. Whatever happened to that?
Did you give Kyle the Man some of your money, so you could look forward to the inevitable Day of Triumph?.... If I was to suggest to you that the little fucker cheated you and whole bunch of other people out of their bank balances, would you agree with me now?
Actually, no. The Hive is too busy laughing about the obvious grifting and cash-scamming that Rittenhouse and his handlers have done ever since he shot those 3 dudes and how we think that you and some of the other righties on here might have actually given Kyle your savings.
Why would us hivers be smarting when we're chuckling?
It does chap my ass that that little shit stain Rittenhouse escaped any real justice, but it's OK to be smug about the money...
Is it really horseshit though? You're a lawyer right, if a client walks in your office and tells you he gets acquitted of murder and wants to go after media personalities that called him a murderer on air....would you flat put tell a potential trial client t he has no case? Bias aside... it's a no?
If you're dreaming of crying 17 year olds with semi automatic weapons, you should talk to someone.
I would say No. With the Freedom of the Press guaranteed under the 1st Amendment media outlets can say pretty much anything they like without consequence.
Plus…in this instance KR was indeed charged with Murder and many people feel he should have been convicted. Calling him a Murderer seems within the realm of fair comment.
No legit lawyer would take this case; the only lawyers that would take this on are grifters, kooks, or those with a political agenda. They are the Rudy Giulianis and Lin Woods is the legal profession.
US libel law protects the speaker pretty heavily.
But the case was frequently announced as "about to happen", inevitably linked to a new "urgent" fund-raising campaign to "pay for our lawyers". And this happened several times. And then the case was never filed. So it was a clear fraud and scam, simply to get cash for Kyle and his handlers and hangers-on.
Because it's horseshit.
KR has a pretty strong self-defence claim and that works in civil law as well.
But the burden of proof is so much lower in a civil case. In criminal, you need to prove without doubt someone is guilty. In the civil, you just need to have more than half of the doubt (or something...). That's why OJ won his criminal trial but lost the wrongful death. Self-defence could work, but at the same time you could make a reasonable argument that Rittenhouse coming to the city with a rifle led to the confrontations and shootings...A self fulfilling prophecy that there would be a need to use that gun....
I don't think it makes a difference. The big advantage in civil cases usually happens when there's a "he said / she said" defence. In criminal cases, ANY REASONABLE DOUBT has to cause an acquittal. The standard Canadian self-instruction for trial judges in a criminal case is to recite that "even if the court believes the complainant, if the accused's evidence causes any reasonable doubt at all, I must acquit".
In a civil cause it's just "balance of probabilities" - is something more likely than not. So usually the judge believing the complainant means the civil defendant loses the case automatically.
But when there's an actual technical, legal defence (like self defence), it plays in both civil and criminal cases. It's hard not to accept that KR was fighting for his life that night. The differing standards of proof don't really have an impact.
Rittenhouse is the Patient Zero of American Nazi Stormtroopers.
Stop these insane assholes before it is too late.....

A win for lawyers. Nothing will come of us.reality
Lawsuit can proceed against Kenosha shooter Kyle Rittenhouse
A federal judge in Wisconsin has ruled that a wrongful death lawsuit filed by the father of a man shot and killed by Kyle Rittenhouse during a protest in 2020 can proceed against Rittenhouse, police officers and others.apnews.com
Holy Shit!
I thought those "Macho Trump" memes were embarassing.
OMG this is fucking hilariously pathetic.
