Mmmm….flavorings!
Since this post will just turn into 300+ comments on the Kenosha Judicial Event, I wasn’t particularly inspired to hunt down Brand Name Links. So, here are some generic, store brand ones:
- So, they are saying it wasn’t too much curry takeout?
- I am sure the Manhattan DA will throw the book at him. Or not.
- This will be seen in certain areas in the US soon. If it isn’t already. I wonder when it will ever stop? 3 years, 5 years, forever?
- HAHAHAHA! Nice, non-corrupt choice. No former Chicago or Newark mayors available? Oh, and why not Kamala? Heh heh.
*hopes for one on-topic comment in the first 25*
“British police have identified the suspect behind an explosion which engulfed a taxi in flames outside a hospital in Liverpool on Sunday, a blast the authorities have declared a terrorist incident.
Police say 32-year-old Emad Al Swealmeen, who was killed in the blast, boarded the taxi in the northern English city and asked to be driven to the hospital, which was about 10 minutes away.
The blast took place within the car as it approached the drop-off point in front of Liverpool Women’s Hospital. The taxi driver was treated for injuries and released after medical attention.”
Well, it sounds like no one besides the perpetrator was seriously hurt.
Happy ending?
The poor cabbie is out one car.
“He has insurance.”

Also, that dude couldn’t buy that kind of bragging rights moving forward.
Good point…he shouldn’t have to pay for a pint the rest of his days.
“Eh. He’s got insurance.”
he taxi driver was treated for injuries and released after medical attention
Those taxis must be built like tanks.
Those cool old black cabs in the UK sure are built like tanks. They’re always fun to take. Except for the time the one London cabbie who had three signs in the passenger area saying it took credit cards, but he refused to accept any, and we hadn’t exchanged enough money yet.. so we asked if he would take US dollars, and he snapped ” I take pounds sterling only, thank you!”
I had no alternative and just gave him two US twenties for a 25-pound fare, and we hopped out. He shouted at us in colorful Cockney slang until we were out of earshot.
“On topic”

Lol.
Some areas are going to keep it up for years, IMO.
It never stopped here, and yes, there is minimal demand for it to stop. The few free people who do are vastly drowned out by everyone else.
Today I switched dentists because my old dentist requires masks in the office. I found another dentist that doesn’t require them. That new dentist will get my money.

I really miss when the Doctor was…. not craptacular.
For me, Dr. Who ended with Tennant even tho Karen Gillan made a couple of other episodes watchable.
Ive said it before, but I think Hugh Laurie would make a great Doctor, but the show is only as good as the writing. Which currently sucks.
Nah, you shouldn’t go anywhere in this free country where a lawless mob is rampaging. If they try to kill you and you defend yourself, we’re going to put you in Kangaroo Court to argue for your life.

Guernica.
That looks like someone ate a pre-K kids sketchbook and then vomited onto a tiled floor.
So, a Picasso.
Nice. That is one of my favorite pieces of art.
*squints suspiciously*
Nope. Totally serious. I love Picasso.
De gustibus non est disputandum.
Well, he isn’t a cuckoo clock.
I am with Zwac. Not my favorite, but I like it.
There was a Picasso traveling exhibit at our local art gallery. It was something like $25 to get in, but their computers were down that day, so we got to see it gratis. Very interesting. The man was talented.
I struggle with what to think about artists who do “ugly” styles. Picasso fits in that category for me. Clearly talented, but every painting I see of his is painfully ugly.
Consequently, I have a bunch of paintings from a noticeably less talented painter (not saying he’s bad, but he’s not Picasso) in my house because he painted beautiful things.
I think his work is fantastically beautiful. It might not be traditional, but it certainly is beautiful, for certain values of beauty.
I can definitely appreciate the workmanship and the meaning behind the elements. There are elements in Guernica that showcase immense talent and attention to detail, but to me, at first glance, it looks like chaos accompanied by faces that look like I tried to draw them. It’s only when I spend more time looking at the individual elements that the precision and the talent starts to come out through the chaos.
If I look at a Bob Ross (as an example), the beauty is the first thing I notice, and the lack of precision only comes through in closer inspection.
As you so well describe, it at first looks very childish and hasty, but when you focus on the faces, the detail and skill come to the fore and you get closer to the actual event depicted. I will be the first to admit I like difficult, challenging works of art, and Picasso definitely falls into that category. For example, on one side of my living room is Hoppers Night Theater https://i.pinimg.com/originals/93/a8/e6/93a8e600dd6111f99599f2f54e058dcf.jpg
And on the other side is a painting of Behemoth from The Master and Margarita
https://img0.etsystatic.com/013/1/8145186/il_fullxfull.463179800_h67a.jpg
Which is an incredibly challenging novel that I think you would fully enjoy and gain a lot from. It was written during Stalin’s reign of terror in Moscow, picturing if the Devil showed up during that horror, and contrasting it with various parts of the life of Christ, as being told by a novelist during that period who is being held in an asylum. I would put it as one of the greatest novels of the twentieth century.
I love Hopper.
Because of stuff like this.
I’m picturing Trashy’s house filled with Thomas Kinkade prints.
😀
I wish I could tell the story without doxxing myself and my wife. Let’s just say it has to do with Napster and some kids playing on grandpa’s computer.
What’s wrong with fantasy art?
He started out as a traditional artist. You should do a wander through his life’s output.
His early stuff absolutely affirms his talent level and is much more approachable (IMO) than his later paintings.
Definitely worth a trip to Madrid just to see Guernica in person. It’s a surprisingly huge piece of work, fills an entire museum wall.

Did they include universal pre-k in the bill? Our daycare bill is going up $100 a month next year. I presume mostly due to covid, but if UPK is coming they might be prepping for competing with Uncle Sam.
I thought that was the Build Back Better monstrosity from PPP… not the “bipartisan” screw fest.
Hope so it’s merging together into one giant blob of fuckery. So hard to track.
Not that this will surprise anyone here, but it is a good compendium.

Binger: “You lose the right to self-defense when you’re the one who brought the gun.”
Sound logic.
“You don’t bring a gun to a fistfight.”
So Rittenhouse should have known that he was going to a fistfight and left his weapon….
Mask slipping on how they’ll justify/explain eviscerating the 2A?
So no defending yourself with a gun, ever.
Velez was initially accused of kidnapping and sex assault after he allegedly dragged a woman in her 20s from a Miami sidewalk to a dimly lit area behind some bushes in February 2020, police sources told The Post.
Velez, who was homeless at the time and part of a shelter program, allegedly put her in a chokehold and threatened to remove her pants – but the attack was foiled by two witnesses.
So he’ll get the Brock Turner “never allowed to show his face in public again” treatment, right?
The accused rapist then turned up in Manhattan, where he raped a 27-year-old woman running in the park Thursday morning, authorities have said.
Say what you will about Our Crumbling Infrastructure (TM), but a homeless guy made it 1300 miles up the road pretty quickly.
Ladies, he’s single!
LOL!
Look at both officers sitting there with wide-eyes…even they thought….you got your photo op but you are about to break your shoulder and get shot yourself by the bailiff.
Well, it was only a .223. He wasn’t going to break his shoulder.
And, per our earlier convo, he was absolutely muzzling the crowd. With his finger on the trigger.
If he had flung that wing out any farther, it would have broken.
I struggle with that on the AR platform. I always tell myself to “tuck that damn arm in so you don’t look like a lunatic”
I’m just amazed by the insanity of it all.
Surprised he wasn’t cuffed for that.
So there is one good thing to come out of this whole fiasco – the meme mining.
Get the jab, pussy.
Whenever I’m told to have one to help save my life from a deadly virus. Getting Covid shots is the easiest thing in the world, unless you’re a little scaredy-cat who’s read too many dumb conspiracy theories… then it’s TERRIFYING

Sadly, he’s probably no more in need of it to “help save his life” than anyone else his age.
Who’s the real pussy?
Someone is a “little scaredy-cat” alright – the person progjecting their fears about dying from an endemic virus.
This. Chicken Littles running around for 18 months accusing others of being fearful. So afraid of death they stopped living.

Defense Attorney in Rittenhouse trial is really bad at this.

That was one thing I learned very early on in my (jury trial) legal career – “tell a story they can follow”. It worked pretty darn well.

Will Christians enjoy sex in heaven?
Will there be sexual relations in heaven? Some say ‘No’ because Jesus says in Matthew 22:30 that we will be like the angels. But, in the context of what Jesus was talking about in Matthew 22:30, what Jesus meant is that we will be like the angels in that there will be no marriage in heaven.
A question was given to Jesus concerning a woman who had several husbands in her lifetime (each husband having died and the woman outliving them all). The question given to Jesus was who will be the woman’s husband at the resurrection since she had several husbands. Jesus responded by saying that, like the angels, there won’t be marriage in heaven. That doesn’t mean there won’t be sexual relationships in heaven. Marriage is required for sex only in this life. Heaven is another issue.
As The Great Firster, I will have so many bitches when the Great Firstening comes.
The First shall be Last, Bro…
I wouldn’t think being non-corporeal beings of the Spirit (and if in Heaven, at one with God and his infinite love), bumping uglies is exactly needed.
Someone is way too hung up on the needs of the material plane there.
So… Land of Infinite Fun?
Maybe it’s me, but heaven as basically one big “polyamorous” orgy doesn’t exactly sound right to me. And, of course, the entire argument presumes the ethereal equivalent of a physical body.
So, we’re all agreed?
Christians will have sex in heaven, but they won’t enjoy it.
Fauci says he is not leaving until COVID-19 is done.
He’s not going anywhere.
Dr. Anthony Fauci, the country’s top infectious disease expert who’s provided reassurance to many Americans during the pandemic, says he won’t quit until the country gets past COVID-19.
“I’m the head of an institute that actually played the major role in the development of the vaccines that have saved now millions of lives from COVID-19,” he told CBS’ “Face the Nation” in an interview that aired Sunday. “I’m the director of the institute that has now been very important in the basic research in leading to the drugs that will now have an important impact in the treatment of COVID-19. That’s what I do.
“So, I’m going to keep doing that until this COVID-19 outbreak is in the rearview mirror, regardless of what anybody says about me, or wants to lie and create crazy fabrications because of political motivations,” concluded Fauci, the chief White House medical adviser and director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.
So, he’s daring the public to drag him kicking and screaming from his office and throw him in the nearest [REDACTED]?
How does Redacted compare to other wood chipper manufacturers?
Pretty sure the opposite is true: the country won’t get past COVID until Fauci quits.
He may not have to quit, just an unpaid leave of absence would do.
Well, that really harshes my mellow.
Harshmellows? Sounds like a sour confection.
It’ll never be in the rear view mirror and he knows it. It’s a goddamn endemic disease now.
[redacted]
If the GOP was smart they’d add a plank to their platform to appoint a special prosecutor to look into the origins of the Rona and how the NIH played into that. Promise to bring criminal charges if they discover that Fauci broke Obama’s ban on gain of function research funding.
Hahaha, we all know the GOP are dumb fucks.
Hey, don’t we get pharma money in our campaign coffers too?
Right? That’s some fuckin’ chutzpah to omit THAT little detail from his Jesus act.
Since COVID is endemic, I guess he’s going to hold his position forever.
I believe that’s the plan.
Until now it has been a trail of tears.
President Biden signs an executive order to address violence against Native Americans.

Former NH judge avoids jail time
A former New Hampshire judge received a suspended sentence Monday for altering court paperwork with whiteout in a 2019 family division case while she was under investigation.
Former Circuit Court Judge Julie Introcaso, who had resigned in February before a judicial hearing was to start against her, also must complete 100 hours of community service, according to the sentence agreement in a plea deal with prosecutors.
Not nearly punishment enough. Oh wait, she wasn’t punished at all.
Reporting CRT inspired content is “vigilantism”
When the New Hampshire Department of Education (NHDOE) set up a website to help parents raise questions about problematic content in their children’s classrooms the state’s teachers unions responded, not with encouragement, but outrage. Describing parents’ complaints as a form of “vigilantism,” one union head is calling for the education commissioner to be fired over the webpage.

Tim Pool unleashed.
I was with him until he started in the “Vote harder, patriots!” part. No, we can’t primary our way out of this. No, a convention of the states isn’t happening. You don’t avoid the slaughter by heading down the rightmost chute instead of one of the middle ones. The political process, no matter the handful of “wins” handed out to the right, is not the solution.
Fight, withdraw, or submit.
I’ve been a watcher of his for many years and this transformation has been fascinating and organic — I don’t look at Tim as controlled opposition at all. His disgust has been building for a long time.
I would so much have hoped for a convention of states — that would be tantamount to the national divorce that gets thrown around.
But I’m with you, I don’t think any of that’s happening, and voting our way out sure as hell isn’t. I couldn’t speculate on what actually will happen, but I feel worse about it every day….
I don’t look at Tim as controlled opposition at all.
This clip was the first I ever watched of him. He seems earnest, but he hasn’t quite put together all the parts yet, IMO. The self contradiction of “we can’t trust anybody in office to fix this” and “let’s elect new people” hasn’t ironed itself out yet. The petit cowardice of “we cant possibly give up our iPhone, but we’ll move our checking accounts away from BoA” clashes with the apocalyptic rhetoric he started the video with. Overall, I have a positive impression of the guy, especially since my (vague) understanding is that he came to where he is from the left.
NH House Progressive Caucus boots leader over anti-Semitic remark.
The New Hampshire House Progressive Caucus, where Perez serves on the executive board, also released a statement Friday morning:
“Recent online post of a radical antisemitic slogan by a fellow caucus member has caused the NH House Progressive Caucus to take a stand against this type of hate speech. The use of antisemitic slogans or words are both hurtful and dangerous and must be condemned by all.”
They also announced she’s being forced out of her leadership position.
“Even though Rep. Maria Perez has felt remorse and apologized for the use of such a slogan, effective immediately, she will be stepping down from her position on the Progressive Caucus Executive Board.”
I thought proggies only objected to right-wing antisemitism?
Psalm of the dayTrashy writes something about what he read in the Bible today… of the day… Yeah, I’ll work on a name for it.
Colossians 1:9-14
As a preamble, this is going to be much less inspirational than the Psalm of the day series. It’ll be a snippet from my daily study and a few sentences of my impressions. I could’ve done proverb of the day or something, but I’ve been hearing Colossians mentioned a few different places, and it’s a short letter to get my feet under me in this new style to decide whether to keep doing it this way or revert to the old form.
The intros to most of Paul’s letters are much more rich than they seem initially. The richness in Colossians is in the explanation of what a group of growing Christians should look like. By the way, a group of growing Christians is what the definition of a “church” should be.
What does Paul pray for? Knowledge and wisdom for the church. Why? So they know how to walk in the way of the Lord. How? Bearing fruit in good works, increasing knowledge, being strengthened for endurance and patience in joy, giving thanks to the Father.
These are all disciplines and habits that the modern church equips with varying levels of success. I’d argue less success rather than more. None of these are passive things. You cannot do good works passively sitting in the pew. You cannot meaningfully increase your knowledge by passively listening to a 30 minute sermon once per week. You cannot strengthen your endurance and patience without actively putting yourself in situations that test your endurance and patience. Giving thanks is active and challenging if you take it seriously. It is not enough to implore a congregation from the pulpit to take an active role in spiritual growth. It’s a way of life, not a homework assignment.
Pretty darn good, trashy!
Thank you.

Sounds like the apology trickled out.
He definitely went chasing a waterfall
I’m sure the FBI will be serving warrants soon against the person who leaked this news to the press.
These comments are golden!
They just shower down!
Sometimes you have to get your plumbing checked if its just a trickle though
I’d say it was more of a watered down apology.

Musical Political Chairs
OK, so I know that if you’ve evern been elected to higher political office, you suddently land a cushy job you are in no way qualified for on some corporate board. BUT, WTF is the rule to move someone from VP to SCOTUS? These people just make shit up as they go?
Well…he can’t just move her there…so, I don’t know.
Someone on SCOTUS has to resign or die before Biden resigns or dies, for starters …
I would say that nominating Harris to the Supreme Court (if there’s an opening) would be hilariously bad because she would be forced to justify her shitty criminal justice record but the Democrats and the media would provide cover for her and claim that anyone who brings up her past are a bunch of racists.
I can’t even imagine anyone on SCOTUS now, even the liberal ones, wanting that anywway near them. She’s less popular than mold.
I definitely get the attrraction of a Biden/Harris ticket for the progs, cronies, and globalists/socialists.
It’s probably a once in a leftime opportunity to find 2 people with less morality and etchics thatn those 2. Both of them make Hillary look like a Saint.
I didn’t get it at all. I called my friends out that they had a Biden/Harris sign next to their BLM signs despite those two standing writing and enforcing unjust laws that they are protesting against. The more honest ones admitted that it was a hypocritical move but their only goal was to get Trump out of office.
I’m guessing like most people, they had no idea and rely on media to tell them what is up.
And also chose to close their eyes to the obvious contradiction.
I would vote for Willie Brown for president in 2024 if he came out and accused Kamala of sexually assaulting him during her nomination hearings.
“As you know it is not uncommon for a victim to not only keep silent, but to continue an amicable relationship for years with their abuser”.
And she could not be the Senate tie-breaking vote!
This new keyboard keeps making me type more ns and ts and ls than I want to for some reason. I think It’s just that the spacing is a little different than the one I just replaced.
Are you seriously blaming your keyboard for the uptick in your use of n-words?
How sad.
They just mean appoint her if one of them dies or retires.
Nominate her, and if the Senate approves, she’s on SCOTUS. Those hearings will be, as the kids say, lit.
They kind of need a vacancy first, though.
“Justice Breyer somehow slipped and ended up at the bottom of Niagara Falls.”
Then Kamala slipped off the same ledge and also wound up at the bottom.
Anyone see Hillary around?
“Who will rid me of this pesky SCOTUS judge?”
Sorry, but I don’t think any of the current SCOTUS judges have what I would call “perky” tits. I mean they all look perkier than RBG, but that ain’t saying anything.
Wait. Oh….. you said “pesky”. Nevermind.
Could she be the deciding vote for her own nomination? I’m assuming yes.
With the democrats making their own rules now, I suppose, if that is even necessary.
In a slightly better world, this question would be asked at such nomination hearings: “So, to recap what I’ve heard – the person who is now president explicitly said that he was gonna hire you almost entirely because you possess a vagina and more skin melanin than average. Then, because of that lack of job qualifications, you’ve acted so tone deaf in that job that you somehow have worse polling than your boss, whose polling numbers totally blow. And now, to rid himself of the bad PR you’re giving him, the president wants to kick you upstairs to SCOTUS, in effect saying the entirety of your job qualification for that proposed post is your ability to become one of the most hated politicians in America.
Does that sound like an accurate summary of events, Madame Vice President?”
So you think she will blow her chance to be on the SC?
I think, if past performance is indicative of future results, she would blow her way onto the SC if she could.
Man, I don’t know what I’d do if this place ever closed up shop.
Remember Amy “Special K” Klobuchar is on the Judiciary Committee.

She is much much too stupid.
Yeah, I’m not really getting an “actinically-brilliant legal mind” kinda vibe from her; more like “chair-warmer.”
Shrewd move. Get her out of a temporary, do-nothing office by offering her a powerful, lifetime appointment.
Im pretty sure I saw Poop Tomatoes open for Brass Against once.
‘Poop tomatoes’ found growing on shore of Kent coast where sewage pumped into sea
*Fun fact: contrary to The Independent saying “The tomatoes are a new phenomenon, but DEFRA says its more likely to be birds spreading seeds”, poop tomatoes arent new at all. Water treatment isnt my forte, but anytime treated waste is spread around, tomatoes pop-up. You can see by the picture that they’re cherry tomatoes. Tres Sr. is the one that explained to me that most produce we buy is a hybrid of some sort and when those seeds get into the ground, they revert to their base state. Consequently, according to him, all tomatoes are originally cherry tomatoes.
I wonder why CNN keeps going on about Kamala. They want a better VP to replace Brandon?

“Alex Jones faces ruin as he’s found guilty in all four Sandy Hook defamation cases: Infowars conspiracy theorist is liable for damages after calling massacre a ‘hoax’ and the victims ‘crisis actors’
Alex Jones, the host of Infowars and right-wing conspiracy theorist, has been found guilty by default in all four defamation cases over his claims that the Sandy Hook school massacre was ‘a giant hoax’ aimed at increasing gun control”
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10204491/Alex-Jones-guilty-default-four-Sandy-Hook-Elementary-School-defamation-cases.html
Drugs, ass, but that leads me to believe it was a giant hoax aimed at increasing gun control.
What damages?
Defamation usually involves a false accusation of a crime. I guess they could claim that he slandered them by calling them perjurers.
Too bad Jones isn’t in Congress. Could have saved him some money.
Doesn’t have to be a crime, at least in Wisconsin. Some false statements are “defamation per se”
if they involve things like crimes or (IIRC) diseases. Been a few months since I wrote it up,
but it can be more or less anything that injures a reputation. The devil is in the details of course.
I can’t speak to “usually”, but it doesn’t have to be criminal.
I am not a lawyer but I would think falsely pretending your child was killed to achieve some end might be a crime.
If so he accused them of a crime.
I could be wrong though. Maybe you can publicly fake a child’s death.
I sued someone once for defamation of character in the state of Texas.
It was a countersuit recommended by my lawyer to get the other party to drop a lawsuit against me for violating an employment contract.
What the lawyer told me was essentially this:
“You may not publicly accuse someone of something that you know to be false if it greatly damages their reputation. Especially if it harms their standing in their community, ability to get a job, participate in the community, etc. ”
The latter seems like it might be a stretch in this case, but only because I would assume no intelligent person would actually believe Alex Jones.
I believe that was his defense, “I’m putting on a persona, no one should take me seriously”, or was that Tucker Carlson?
You’re wrong. It was Brian Williams.
And it worked for Rachel Maddow.
Ive had too much to drink. But Id watch Maddow speed-fist Brian Williams in a seedy Motel 6 in Gallup, NM while Marv Albert (wearing a negligee) sits in a corner and beats-off.
Reading that, I know its oddly specific, but I hate everyone involved. So Ill hit POST anyhow.
Actual LOL, bravo Tres…bravo.
I’m in a bad way, not horrible, but not good at all, I could use some help,

Done. Good luck, mate!
Ah, crap. I think I just doxx’ed myself.
Oh well.
That’s not your porn name?
Sadly, no.
Although it is the name of a small wooded area somewhere near Toronto, Ontario, Canada, and a boxer and former rugby player from The Giant Re-Activated Penal Colony Formerly Known As Australia.
That’s an extremely porn-y name. Good on ya.
What, The Giant Re-Activated Penal Colony Formerly Known As Australia?
Uh, well, whatever helps you get through the night, I guess . . .
Giggity.
Relevant.
No you are anonymous Brother
You’re Canadian. Its not like it matters.
You have no idea how much The Hair That Walks Like A Man™ wants to find and punish people like me.
Well, TBF, and everyone else who isn’t named “Justin Trudeau.”
I’m in.
Done
Glib link game is fire today, those Sloopy links in the A.M. were on fleek.
Tears much? I’m so grateful, damn……
The Neurosurgeon says I may not need surgery, just time, I have food and probably Utilities covered, You guys are keeping me in my home till i can work again, and I have some prospects, I won’t give up.
I won’t give up
I know you haven’t, and you won’t. That’s why I chipped in.
Stay strong brother
The irony is my Brother is ignoring my request,this shows who my friends are, God bless you all!
/ my Brother is a Dick, i expect nothing from him.
My Sister saved my Ass when she drug me up here, Huzzah for Yvette!
Enh, both my bros are dicks, but they’ve very occasionally even managed to surprise me (not that I’m defending them after 60+ years). Your bro might come around yet.
my Brother is a Dick
Well your parents shouldn’t have named him Richard.
I hope for the best for you.
I wont quit, I’m just really jacked with my back, so i’m looking for some sit down style jobs, I have a QA job I’m looking into, I don’t Quit
Hang in there, Yusef
Keep on fighting, Yusef!
Hell Yes! I don’t quit!
When I moved up here, I decided to stay and maybe make a difference, I had a great job, started a Disc club(still the Director) and made myself a part of my little town.
I’m hurt, but not done, I want to stay here and maybe make a diference, so far so good.
People have obviously recognized that Yusef.
Well sorry, I’ll make a difference anyway,
Love ye OBE!
So the prosecutor gets a second round of closing arguments? Does the Defense get to go again too?
That’s some shit Eh? That’s so wrong
Apparently not. Seems a bit stacked that the prosecutor gets the first and last word at closing.
He gets a chance to rebut whatever the defense said that was wrong, presumably.
They get to rebut cause they have the burden of proof.
That was a terrible rebuttal.
I like the part where the big fellow was suggesting that Rittenhouse should’ve just shot Rosenbaum once just to wound him, instead of four times. He doesn’t know how self defense works.
+1 Arrow to the knee
Closing arguments are done in the Rittenhouse case. Tomorrow morning at 9 Central the judge will slim the jury down to 12, then deliberations begin.
Yesh. Twice told the jury to leave during rebuttal is absolutely damaging in my opinion. Then it was just angry checklisting.
Good God, really?
In any common-law-derived sane world, that’s game over. So it’s probably 50/50 whether Kyle gets boned by the jury here.
And…it was on another 5th amendment objection
They haven’t decided on the 12 jurors already? is that a WI thing or have I always had the trial by jury thing wrong? I know they have alternates for emergencies and such, but I always thought the 12 angry men were selected from the get go.
Here’s what I understand about what the court did: they pick some number greater than 12. I think there are 16 for this trial. Those folks sit as jurors through the trial. At the end, the court picks 12 at random to go into deliberations. The others are alternates which have to hang around the courthouse during deliberations in case something happens with one of the 12.
This might be a Wisconsin thing because I think in PA there are 12 jurors plus two alternates. The alternates are explicitly alternates right from the start.
Thats Bull shit! 12 jurors, that’s it, we don’t get to pick, Fuck!
That is how they handle alternates.
The theory is that this way everyone has to pay full attention, because they don’t know if they will be excused. If you are the alternate, it is kinda inevitable that you will let your attention wander.
Also might make targeting specific jurors harder… Trying to get Mrs Jones to hang the jury, for instance.
In CA there are 12 plus 2 alternates. At least it was like that last time I was on a jury.
Having 18 makes it more difficult for the mob to hunt down and attack them all.
I love the internet.
Brutal.
“I can’t believe this site is free.”
ROFL
I feel the same about Glibs.
I can’t believe how Cool the Glibs are, Holy fuck!
Thank You!
Oh good gracious
As someone who had to become a leftie after a tragic accident I am very offended by this post, triggered one might say. Reported and blocked.
Well, your a Leftie, you deserve whatever you get,
Thanks!
I was born a lefty but my conception was a tragic accident, so I guess it’s a draw.
My mother, my brother, my son. All lefties.
I have seen the curse up close.
I had to become a rightie after I broke my arm. The accident was more “stupid” than “tragic”, though.
Same here (if I’m honest), but to crib from Mel Brooks – “Tragic” is me getting a paper cut, “Stupid” is someone else sticking their hand into a Shopsmith Mark V planer.
OMG
This will be seen in certain areas in the US soon.
Hell, it is happening here.
, a great guitar player, my asshole Brother,

I saw this band play in the center of a shopping mall. Right near the food court.
This is Rock!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3f2g4RMfhS0
I like to Rock.
You win.
I really appreciate that the band has bog standard, circa 1980 metal perms, while the drummer teleported from the 2020s sporting his bald-with-beard.
I’m watching the Fall of Empires on YouTube. Sumer, Assyria, etc. Really fascinating.
Get ready to waste a lot of Time, Paul Cooper is really good, enjoy!
Unreal, it’s the lurkers who are donating to my GfM, You guys Rock!
This thread needs a 300th post to make Swissy’s prediction accurate.
There. It’s done.
You didn’t talk about the trial!
YOU’VE RUINED EVERYTHING!!! /runs away sobbing
