    Actually this was a friend who celebrated the verdict. We were discussing Black Rifle coffee and related issues.

    One point I’d bring up is that the prosecution had (provided through counsel) Rittenhouse’s phone.

    I think if there was some indication on that phone that Rittenhouse was there to shoot up (whoever) or had strong feelings about the racial nature of the protests, the prosecution would have sought to introduce that (likely would have been the subject of pretrial litigation - and thus reported on). Can stuff be deleted from phones? Yes. Is modern cell phone analysis pretty good at finding deleted stuff? Also yes.

    If anyone still thinks NPR holds any credibility:

    "...Rittenhouse himself is not known to be a member of an extremist group..."

    They'll just sue the city like Grosskreutz did thinking there will be a payday for failure to control the riot that he participated in. In a perfect riot control scenario he would have been arrested for a firearms violation and taken into custody for numerous violations. Instead the prosecution tries to paint him as a victim. That's some really weird shit right there. In the wrong place at the wrong time carrying a concealed firearm without a permit and pulling it on someone who is trying his best to defend himself against a mob. That gets voted down every damn time by a jury.
    In the P-F basket of deplorables.
