Guest Post by The Zman
The Kyle Rittenhouse trial has gone to the jury after both sides presented their closing arguments and the state presented its rebuttal. Wisconsin stacks the deck against the accused by not only allowing the state the final word but giving them a chance to address the closing argument of the accused. That means before the jury got the case, they had to sit through a long day of the state making unfounded claims about their case as well as the case of the defense team.
Putting that aside, the trial has not exactly riveted the country, but it has become a symbol of the problems facing America. For example, there were the howler monkeys of the new religion writhing in agony whenever the judge enforced the basic rules of criminal procedure. Immediately they labeled the judge a white supremacist fascist and issued a fatwa against him. The death threats came pouring in and he is now under police protection. Welcome to America.
Twitter sponsored people on their platform calling for volunteers to show up at the court and get the names and faces of the jurors. This is not an official Twitter position, but as a publisher, they chose to allow their members to post these calls. In a sane society they would be liable for the people they boost on their platform. In present day America corporations are immune from all consequences. As long as they are true believers, they can do as they please.
On the other side of this you have people slowly waking up to the reality of the situation, who are glued to the case. They hold out hope that the jury does the moral thing and clears Rittenhouse of all charges. They do not want to see an innocent man condemned for holding the wrong opinions, but mostly they do not want to see the ugly reality of this age piled onto the head of a baby-faced young man. This trial offends the decency of the remaining honest men in this society.
For those who have had their awakening long ago, this trial is a continuation of the trend that now defines society. On the one hand we have America descending into a great terror aimed at the white population. The new religion is all about vengeance against white people. Juxtaposed to this are the people who see it, trying to find some way to wake up the rest of the people. This trial is another example of the aware desperately trying to warn the world.
Of course, that brings up the confused audience in this tragic drama. Most white people are trying to avoid looking at this trial. The grotesque nature of it turns their stomach, as it should. The ugliness of the human condition is on display. There are the savage calls for mob vengeance and the cruelty of fanaticism. This trial is a human sacrifice carried out by a mob of fanatical lunatics. Most white people thought we had evolved beyond this sort of thing. Welcome to America.
It is a good reminder of something said by John Stuart Mill. “Let not any one pacify his conscience by the delusion that he can do no harm if he takes no part, and forms no opinion. Bad men need nothing more to compass their ends, than that good men should look on and do nothing. He is not a good man who, without a protest, allows wrong to be committed in his name, and with the means which he helps to supply, because he will not trouble himself to use his mind on the subject.”
This has been the story of the last five years. The overwhelming majority of people in America, regardless of race or national origin, just want to live quiet lives enjoying the benefits of their circumstances. They are Burkean conservatives in that they do not want to flip over the tables and begin anew. That understandable and justifiable desire for stability and normalcy easily gives way to passivity in the face of evil. The story of the last five years is a nation of good men doing nothing.
This trial is probably a pivot point. The good men looking away do so with the certainty that their fellow citizens on the jury will do the right thing. They still trust the system even though they see the systemic corruption. If the jury sends this young man to prison many more eyes will be opened to the reality of this age. Not all, as some people put all of their efforts to remaining blissfully unaware. Theirs is a life of willful ignorance and a selfish disregard for the suffering of others.
On the other hand, the just verdict will allow most people to extend their holiday from reality a bit longer. They will comfort themselves in the belief that the system still works, despite what they have seen. Like a high wire performer who miraculously survives a fall and returns to his act, these people will learn nothing. Thoreau was right about most men living quiet lives of desperation. It is just that most men desperately wish to live outside of the great currents of history.
For those who have made the journey to this side of the great divide and see things as they are, this trial is just another opportunity. If the jury does the right thing, then the issue is why this kid was persecuted by these ghouls. If he is found guilty then the issue is the grotesque injustice at the hands of a savage mob of fanatics. The dissident is an opportunist, using every event to press a partisan case. The Rittenhouse case is just one more story in a long struggle for Western civilization.

Either way the jury rules, it’s another step towards the wheels coming off.
It’s more like a step toward admitting the wheels have already come off.
We’re at that awkward stage of civilizational collapse where we can all see it happening, but don’t want to admit it.
Anon, Things are too comfortable still for any kind of reactionary response to the scams, injustices, insanity and general clown world rule we voluntarily support and abide by. It won’t be until things get really physically shitty, and all the opportunities people perceive (which don’t actually exist) to insulate themselves from the physical discomfort associated with real tyranny are gone that the plump, comfortable, capable old stock ‘Muricans will be jarred awake. And it will bee too late then.
It will be a while yet. Good luck to Mr. Rittenhouse. Since he did not scrag any Negroes, he might escape life in prison. And the Establishmentarians would actually LOOOVE it if white boys all over the nation tok after other white boys with their firearms. They don’t care when people of the same race and social class kill each other. They only PRETEND to care when white people shoot negroes, or working class folks shoot the well heeled.
Fascinating times.
The book of Psalms Chapter 17 says “I have kept from the paths of the violent”. Kyle Rittenhouse disobeyed by putting himself in the paths of the violent and now suffers the consequences. Foolish woman, it is not a question of being judged by 12 but being judged by God. Only the Sacred Heart of Jesus can save him now. I will pray the Rosary for him, maybe you also.
Foolish man, you comprehend so very little. Mankind was judged and found wanting. 2,000 years ago. The sentence, death. In His capacity for infinite love and perfect justice, God became man and paid the price, Himself.
2 Corinthians 5:17-21 KJB… “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God. For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.”
You go ahead and fondle your beads, live in the Hebrew psalms, pray a rosary to your queen. Discard the fact that “if” this young man is “in Christ”, his sin of existence is forgiven.
Matthew 6:7 KJB… “But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.”
(What follows in scripture is a Jewish Kingdom prayer, requesting the New Jerusalem to come from heaven to earth. All prophecy fulfilled.)
That doesn’t sound right.
That seems to have plot holes. I don’t appreciate predictive programming as legitimate, either.
Sweetie, I hope you’re a troll and doing satire…otherwise, go fuck yourself with a cactus.
I see you still have contributed zero, despite several hundred posts, each and every day.
Who pays for your trolling? They are getting ripped off, lmao
At this point I don’t think it’s possible to awaken anyone. Failure to see what is so obviously happening to us can only be deliberate. They will not see because they do not want to see.
Sides have already been chosen. Perhaps when the rain begins pouring down there will be those who frantically beat their fists bloody against the closed doors of the Ark, but it will be too late.
It is too late now if you still refuse to see.
I have friends I’ve known for 40 years who still refuse to hear a word I say. I’ve given up. Oh sure, I still come to sites like this one and say my piece. But with people I know personally I just shrug and change the subject when they bring up whatever milquetoast inanities Glen Beck or Tim Poole spouted off on Twitter.
Everything I’ve been screaming about since Waco is coming true daily before your very eyes but still the soothing voices on your Facefag feed are more convincing.
After all, if I’m so smart where is my TV show?
At this point I don’t think it’s possible to awaken anyone.
Agreed. The flu farce has sealed the deal for me.
“…At this point I don’t think it’s possible to awaken anyone…”
That’s what THIS is all about:
John 9:4
I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.
…and THIS…
1 Thessalonians 5:7
For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night.
We’re not waking anyone up from their slumber or their stupor. See to the ones with already open eyes.
Just for shits and giggles:
“The United States needs more – many more – intelligence and security agents.”
– Mr. Glen Beck
Apparently Glen is patriotically concerned about the Russian and Chinese armies currently massing on our borders.
I think you underestimate how few have even been exposed to the facts and truth. I do not blame the victims, but they can hang with the rest if they refuse to see. They stop being victims when they harm others, even in ignorance.
Yep!
80% of the people will never become awake even when the bullets are flying. They just will deal with dodging bullets the best they can. We need to concentrate on educating the communists in our midst.
If we’re really honest with ourselves and concerned with the ‘truth’, what’s the answer to these two questions:
1. What is the difference in how two 17 year old young men would react in the same situation if one had spent 100’s and 100’s of hours for years firing a video game gun 1000’s of times and re-enacting 100’s of ‘play’ ambush situations…..and the other had never held a gun or played a shooting video game?
2. How wasn’t an obvious non-authority/teenager walking around with a rifle not a threatening presence being felt and viewed differently than the other regular people milling about and would this have happened at all ‘around Kyle’ had he not stood out from the crowd with a deadly weapon in a charged atmosphere?
It’s issues like this that to me make it impossible for laws to take the real underlying truth of real impactful facts into consideration and it’s stupid to think courts come anywhere close to determining ‘what Kyle honestly felt and thought’ or anyone! as they argued about so much in this trial.
Kyle was hunted by 3 convicted violent felons(all Jews, not black), including a 5 time child rapist who was mysteriously released from prison…FBI drones hovered over him to catch the moment when he was killed…Miraculously, he shot them first, exercising his God-given right to defend himself…it doesn’t matter what Kyle felt or thought, legally and morally, he was in the right.
Anonymous Conservative has an interesting analysis of how the events unfolded…
Two interesting tidbits directly from Kyle’s defense attorney in his closing argument. One, Joseph Rosenbaum, who was carrying his belongings in a hospital bag, as if he had just been released from a mental health facility, and who was said to have just been released from a mental health facility, and who himself said on video he had just been released, “and wasn’t afraid to go back,” has no record of having been at any mental health facility or detention center, and neither the defense or the prosecution can account for his whereabouts prior to the riot. So the defense tried to locate where this guy came from, or where he was in the weeks prior to the riot, to show he was a mental headcase, but they couldn’t locate any info, despite him clearly having been under a hold somewhere, dealing with therapists of some sort and believing himself he was locked up. Make of that what you will.
Two, Gaige Grosskreutz was brought into the hospital amblulatory and conscious, but in shock with his bicep blown off, and somehow he ended up admitted as an anonymous patient with no name, so his best friend couldn’t find him when he went to be with him. I doubt Gaige was thinking clearly enough in those frantic moments to request he be listed as a John Doe. I doubt the hospital, getting a rush patient in from the riots with his arm blown off, thought to hide his identity as they were trying to wheel him into emergency surgery. So how did he end up anonymized, even days later?
Now suppose the riot was a complex intel operation, being run from an underground command center many miles away, by intel professionals watching events live on their TV screens, like feeds from numerous “streamers” like Gaige who were running around with their phones, streaming the riot. Suppose that command center was giving orders to their operatives on the ground in the riot through hidden earpieces, using bounced signals from locally positioned repeaters brought in by “Antifa” commanders. Imagine the plan for that night was to make an example out of some patriot who was armed, to counter the images of armed patriots in body armor protesting the Cabal, and make those guys look less scary. Suppose that command center picked Kyle out of the video streams during the early moments of the riot, because he was clearly young, out of shape, naive to how things worked, and looked like a Cherry these seasoned Cabal assets could roll over.
In the trial we learned, that at just the wrong moment, whoever was protecting the CarSource suddenly bailed with no explanation as the crowd moved in (the defense said it in closing). Then, one of the “leaders” of the armed patriots asked 17 year old Kyle to go down there to take the position, and at the same moment, Kyle’s “buddy” in the buddy system the patriots were using, who had been assigned to him earlier (a forty something Army vet), suddenly disappeared inexplicably from the side of the 17 year old kid he should have felt responsible for. So Kyle was suddenly alone and could not find him, just as the order to head to CarSource came in. So Kyle went toward the CarSource alone on orders, where Joseph Rosenbaum was hiding behind a car waiting, and where the FBI had just moved its overhead drone and aviation units to that location to record everything that was about to happen.
What Cabal didn’t know was Kyle was under God’s protection, and just happened to be extra-sharp and highly cool under fire as well. So he smokes two Cabal protesters and cripples a third, all clearly in compliance with all legal strictures, before successfully exfiling and getting to safety. After everything plays out, nobody can say where Rosenbaum came from. Nobody can identify or locate crucial characters, like “Yellow Pants” and “Jump Kick Guy” (both terms from the trial), despite the FBI undoubtedly having the Identification of everyone present that night, and the videos going global. And when Grosskruetz gets admitted to the hospital, somebody knows this will be a clusterfuck, and has the authority to contact the hospital and make sure his name is removed from his admission records, so nobody can find him until they see all the videos, sort out how they are going to deal with it, and figure out what his story will need to be.
It feels like a mad scramble by command after a perfectly planned clock-work op targeting a cherry turned into an epic Goatfuck, and they needed to hide everything until they could figure out how how bad it was, and how they needed to handle it. After Kyle cleaned house, and command gave the order to shut down the riot and send everyone home right after it (why did the shooting not invigorate the crowd to riot even worse?), I will bet there were upwards of a dozen seasoned, high ranking intel professionals gathered in a conference room somewhere shitting bricks, grabbing all the video they could, and trying to figure out how they would keep this epic Goatfuck from blowing stratospheric. I would not be surprised at one point one said, “Well, at least tell me this little shit killed a black guy, so we have something to work with!”
All of that fits together far better as coordinated intel activity, than it does as a random series of events, and odd coincidences, which left Kyle all alone, in the middle of the mob, under attack, with multiple aviation over him.
http://www.anonymousconservative.com/blog/
Fits events better than the current narrative.
Everyone acts surprised that every one of the “victims” was an ex-con. Is there any group of people more likely to be involved in criminal activity, statistically speaking?
The author of this must be on some really bad drugs or mentally ill.
This being a CAG operation was too much of a stretch even for me, until I read his analysis and the facts lined up so neatly. It does appear to be a CIA type operation. I do not know that FBI has all of these capabilities themselves. In other words, this was a coordinated DHS operation against the American people.
That is a mountain of circumstantial evidence pointing that way. The complete bungling happens frequently when trying to coordinate different organizations. We saw this all the time in Iraq. That they work at all is a testament to the professionalism of the operators (if only they could see they are on the wrong side) and sometimes the operations crew. Using so many MKU patsies was reckless, as we can see. It would have worked but for Kyle and his training (he trained with police and military, because he wanted to be a cop).
We will never know the full story, because SCI is a first cause evil.
I tend to agree with you about AC. He sounds paranoid and delusional sometimes, I just assume he is throwing stuff to see what sticks. Maybe he does have mental problems.
Using patsies as triggermen is a fact of covert operations, though. So are fusion cells.
@B_MC, The hypothesis you posted has been shared far and wide. Well thought out and quite plausible.
Have you wondered why the F B I had drones flying over the event( show)?
My understanding of law is that it is concerned primarily with a specific act- the crime, or offense- rather than feelings and thoughts.
You might not care for people carrying around a gun- or expressing an opinion you don’t share- but they are within their rights to do so. How “regular people”- and by that I assume you mean the arsonists and rioters who were torching Kenosha that night- felt or viewed someone exercising those rights is immaterial to whether or not he committed a crime.
We probably agree on those FPS games, but for very different reasons. It still has nothing to do with this case other than the fact that the kid is still alive.
“FPS games,” what does that mean?
You must be an old toad. Lol. Just kidding. FPS=first person shooter. My 11 year old told me. Because he is not allowed to play them.
My daughter plays this crap and told me the other day that she was a better shot than I am. I told her that I only shoot real guns and laughed a lot. I’ve tried to get her to stop, but it’s like a drug, or she is mentally ill wasting her time/life on this stuff.
To keep him off of it is a daily battle, but it is no different than keeping my 5 year old from eating nothing but Halloween candy for the month of November. I try to protect their mental and physical health.
Speaking of real life combat skills, my husband takes that 11 year old to laser tag and to “Nerf wars” in a gym where they form teams, have to hide behind barriers and shoot the others. Turns out that our son repeatedly kicks all of the others’ butts, many of them older teenagers. Not sure if I should be proud of him or appalled by his skills that attest to him playing too much Super Smash Bros.
He has also recently much improved his archery accuracy, does weight exercises daily to increase his draw weight etc. It’ll serve him well.
Be proud. Marksmanship will become increasingly important.
How do you post a picture?
Ok, thx. Not home on computer. At appt and tried to post a personal pic from my phone. It won’t work. No big deal. I’ll try later when I get home.
Real life is a lot different than the video games and laser tag will show some of that. Still, FPS games are popular in the infantry. Even while in actual combat zones. They are just games that are only related in theme to real life.
Button mashing video games are for learning basics and group training skills in lieu of the real thing. It’s great for making mistakes and going over the results afterward because no one really gets hurt.
Video gaming is no substitute for real individual marksmanship training, but can be a great training alternative to build skills.
She has an 11 year old. Not a lot of options for a kid to learn those skills (I don’t think).
Wonder if airsoft or paintball courses would be more ideal. It does hurt. An incentive to improve your skill…
Button mashing.
Lazer Tag.
LMFAO
Buy him a real rifle instead.
Speaking from the judicial aspect of things, Kyle is screwed. He carried a gun into a situation that was volatile and dangerous, a situation he could have avoided by not being there. Regardless of his intentions, regardless of who or what he thought he was helping, he carried a gun into a volatile situation and the prosecution will use that as a cudgel. Never mind the asshole felon now missing a bicep, pointing the handgun pointed at Kyle’s head, trying to kill him, he has immunity from prosecution because he’s a ‘witness’ and will never be charged for attempted murder.
We can look at this from a self defense angle which should be the rationale, but we need to look at it from the political angle. The city, county and state PTB all allowed the rioters to run rampant, no attempts to squash the ‘peaceful’ rioters and arsonist, this was Negros running wild because evil whitey got another negro yet again. The PTB needed to make Trump look bad, re-election and all and they needed to pander to the BLM and Antifa leftists because they were the face of the new democrat party.
Look at what is being done to the Jan. 6 folk. Soviet Union political prisoners were treated better. Solitary confinement for endless months and persecution for sitting at Pelosi’s desk is ok because the ruling, power usurping junta need to make a statement and that statement is…you don’t protest our rule peons or else we will punish you and make you an example of what happens to those who go against us. The same ‘don’t you dare go against us’ rational is what is going to condemn Kyle and the leftist media mouthpieces have been handed their script and are in full throat, doing what they always do. Get rid of a few them in a very public and bloody way and the rest will go real quiet and hidden from scrutiny .
HF you said: “My understanding of law is that it is concerned primarily with a specific act- the crime, or offense- rather than feelings and thoughts.”
Absolutely correct…. but my comments were amazement about how much time was spent at this trial INSTEAD of each side trying to give weight to what they wanted to characterize Kyle as ‘thinking/intending’ and used ‘average person’ to compare to!
I was saying what ‘average’? -especially in maturity and reaction ‘propensity’ based on experience.
That said I also lean toward the staging of the whole thing/framing of Kyle especially for all the suppressed issues around the mental problems guy. Is there anything super touchy and serves the leftist narrative that’s cherry picked by the controlled media to be loud across the nation that isn’t fabricated?
Yeah, OK Corky Thatcher.
Oh, the agonized searching after ‘truth’! Oh, the anguished cries of what might have been!
Your script would play well in an After School Special in Airstrip One.
I would answer these questions if it appeared you had spent any time or effort at all in answering them yourself, beyond your reflexive emotional response. We all have reflexive emotional responses, by the way.
Whole thing looks like another Smith Mundt act production. All these televised trials seem phoney , why don’t other everyday murder trials get televised and analyzed? Look at the Parkland nonsense ….made for tv drama.
Yes, correct. The crisis actors never cry real tears. That means you too Kyle.
Just saw Rittenhouse “break down in tears”. If you want to see real anguish, watch the guy that lost his 16 year old son to the jab. This was just an amateur acting job. Better than Cassidy Stay, I guess, whose pinkie deflected a bullet and only tried to look a bit sad about losing her family.
Just came from a site where they’re quoting Jack Posobiec. He’s saying that his source a US Marshall, reports a not guilty verdict would have come in today were it not for 2 jurors who are concerned about doxxing and the safety of their families.
We have not seen a mistrial, even though there have been multiple unimpeachable grounds for declaring one. I expect Kyle to serve time and whites to not lift a finger for him.
I wonder if they chose the venues in the country based on how far away patriots are from it.
White men discovered and built this country. White men gave it away,by allowing women, the mentally ill, niggers and other assorted sub-humans to acquire power. So goes the saying. “You reap what you sow”
Amen. Teach your children well, because this was far bigger than whatever form of government we happened to have chosen.
A great example of playing stupid games and winning stupid prizes.
17 and lived in a different state and city, owned no property in Kenosha, had zero reason to be there.
Here come the high school dropouts cum philosophers, lmao
you have no power here HASBARA
17 miles away, and father lives in Kenosha. Nice try though. Others are already being paid to spew this crap. No need for you to waste your time trying to convince folks who know better.
It’s a shame the cops don’t just show the zeal for stopping looting and arson as they do for unimportant things.
This trial was and is just another pissed on breadcrumb to keep people like us occupied and distracted from what really matters. The circus for the half-awake if you will. The outer fence of the graduated animal farm. Break free, my fellow warriors!
