Rekieta's "apology" (he's the one who does the air quotes, not me) where he spends most of the time saying how he doesn't retract anything, saying, "I meant every single thing I said."
Rekieta admits that he doesn't think that his "apology is all that great of an apology". Nick is apologizing for "saying the truth like an asshole".
He claims that he will restore the stream from Friday when he's talked privately to Eric July, which I guess hasn't happened yet.
He says he was brought into the controversy on Thursday, which appears to be blaming Eric July for asking to be let on Nick's show last week to respond. He insists that he is done with the drama.

So basically he's not sorry he did the thing, he's just sorry he got caught.
much like the montagraph thing, instead of apologizing for what he said (because he has a pathological need to be right) he wants to apologize only for the tone he used. so basically he has to tell July that everything he said on that stream was right and that he is sure of it, including that July is a retarded dumb nigger monkey that is wrong about everything he said and that Masterson, Vito and Riley are on the right side of this shitshow.
A fake bullshit "apology" like this is just another insult and makes him an even bigger piece of shit.
Because it is simpler to assign labels like 'SJW', 'Nazi', and the like that to honestly hold the field against their ideological nemesis.I still donβt get why heβs calling Eric a SJW, I know itβs to accuse Eric of what they are doing, but itβs just stupid. Nick was literally shaking during his commentary of Eric explaining his issues with Dick. It just strikes me as an insult from a decade ago thatβs out of place, like before he said nigger he went to SJW.
The entire thing was retarded and seeing Nick seethe because Eric didnβt really take the bait as much as he wanted or just called Nick a bad faith actor was great.
I barely pay attention to Eric, I can respect him for trying to actually make something. Rekieta really needs to go to AA and cut ties with Dick.
I feel like the shipping thing is at most Eric probably misremembering what his accountant or practicing tax attorney said.
This is not in fact a very good case, as this defendant was a repeat felon, who had admitted to smoking marijuana the day of the first arrest in question, and in the second case, shot at a guy four times and drove off, then two weeks later, got shot himself in another altercation, drove off, caused a crash that killed a person, and was caught at the scene with marijuana, also admitted to smoking it, and had a shell case from the shooting two weeks earlier in his car.Something relatively recent from the 8th is Carnes v USA, which SCOTUS declined to hear.
United States v. Carnes, No. 20-3170 (8th Cir. 2022).This case arises out of Carnes's possession of a gun one day in 2013 and during a two-week period in 2016. βWe recite the facts in the light most favorable to the jury's verdict.β United States v. Galloway, 917 F.3d 631, 632 (8th Cir. 2019) (citation omitted).
On February 10, 2013, a law enforcement officer stopped a vehicle driven by Carnes, who was the sole occupant, for driving 57 miles per hour in a 35-mile-per-hour zone near the intersection of East 63rd Street and Lewis Road in Kansas City, Missouri. Upon approaching the driver's side door, the officer smelled the odor of marijuana. The officer told Carnes, βI need your driver's license and your sack of weed.β Carnes responded, βI just smoked at the houseβ and said that he βjust got done smoking.β Carnes also told the officer, βI got my gun, too.β The officer asked Carnes to exit the vehicle and subsequently recovered a handgun from Carnes's waistband during a pat-down search. A backup officer also smelled a strong odor of marijuana coming from within the vehicle, Carnes's clothing, and his breath. Carnes told this officer that he had smoked a βblunt,β which he also called βKush.β Carnes was arrested and transported to the patrol station, where he failed a field sobriety test. Officers at the station noted that Carnes's breath had a strong odor of marijuana, his eyes were bloodshot, and he was walking hesitantly. Carnes stated that he was not βthat high.β At trial, Carnes admitted that he was under the influence of marijuana when stopped by law enforcement. Carnes testified that he refused to take a blood test or provide a urine sample because he knew the results would come back positive for marijuana.
Three-and-a-half years later, on August 16, 2016, a man was sitting in his parked vehicle near the intersection of East 35th Street and Wabash Avenue in Kansas City, Missouri. As the man's ex-girlfriend was exiting the man's vehicle, another vehicle pulled up alongside the left-hand side of the man's vehicle. The driver of the other vehicle said to the man's ex-girlfriend, βWhat's up, baby,β and the man said to the driver, βDo you mind, I'm talking to my ex.β The driver then pulled out a gun and fired at the man four times before driving away. The man selected Carnes as the shooter from a photo array and also testified that his ex-girlfriend had identified Carnes as the shooter. A witness who identified himself as the front-seat passenger of the shooter's vehicle provided law enforcement with a phone number to contact the shooter. Law enforcement determined that Carnes was associated with the phone number. At trial, Carnes denied the shooting.
On August 30, 2016, two weeks after the shooting, Carnes was approaching a female friend's house in Kansas City, Missouri when he saw her son. They spoke briefly before exchanging gunfire; Carnes sustained multiple gunshot wounds. Despite his injuries, Carnes ran to his girlfriend's vehicle and drove away alone. While speeding and driving in the wrong lane, Carnes ran a red light and caused a three-car collision that killed a motorist. A law enforcement officer responding to the collision approached Carnes's vehicle, and Carnes identified himself. The officer smelled the odor of marijuana in his vehicle and observed a handgun on the floorboard between Carnes's feet and a plastic baggie containing what testing later revealed to be an ounce of marijuana. A shell casing from inside the handgun matched shell casings found at the scene of the August 16 shooting. Carnes tested positive for marijuana, cocaine, and phencyclidine (PCP). At trial, Carnes admitted to smoking marijuana and driving under the influence of marijuana on the day of the collision, though he claimed the marijuana found in the vehicle did not belong to him. Carnes also testified that he used marijuana frequently and that law enforcement had previously taken marijuana from him.
A grand jury returned a three-count indictment, charging Carnes with one count of being a felon in possession of a firearm in violation of 18 U.S.C. Β§Β§ 922(g)(1), 924(a)(2) (Count 1) and two counts of being an unlawful user of a controlled substance in possession of a firearm in violation of 18 U.S.C. Β§Β§ 922(g)(3), 924(a)(2) (Counts 2 and 3). Counts 1 and 2 concerned Carnes's possession of a gun on August 30, 2016. Count 3 concerned his possession of a gun on February 10, 2013. In 2019, a superseding indictment expanded the date range in Counts 1 and 2 to cover August 16 through August 30.
Before trial, Carnes stipulated that, prior to August 16, 2016, he had been convicted of a felony offense punishable by a term of imprisonment exceeding one year and he knew that he had been convicted of such an offense. After the government presented its evidence, Carnes moved for a judgment of acquittal, arguing that the government failed to prove the elements of each count. The district court denied his motion. Carnes renewed his motion for a judgment of acquittal after both parties rested their cases, which the district court again denied. At the conclusion of the jury trial, Carnes was convicted on all three counts.
Prior to sentencing, the United States Probation Office prepared a Presentence Investigation Report (PSR). The PSR found a total offense level of 24 and a criminal history category of IV. It calculated Carnes's United States Sentencing Guidelines range as 77 to 96 months imprisonment, with a statutory maximum of 240 months. The government requested an upward variance to 240 months, citing the nature and circumstances of Carnes's offense, his criminal history, and his post-conviction assault of a corrections officer. At sentencing, the district court merged Counts 1 and 2 for purposes of sentencing and sentenced Carnes to 120 months imprisonment on Counts 1 and 2 as well as 120 months on Count 3, to run consecutively. This resulted in a total term of 240 months imprisonment. The district court also imposed three concurrent three-year terms of supervised release. Carnes appeals his conviction and sentence on multiple grounds.
No, it's what @ScamL Likely just said (as I was writing this). He's sorry a lot of people think he's a drunken retarded faggot and they aren't sucking his dick like the good old days. If Nick had a mostly positive response to his drunkstream, we wouldn't have even had last night's gay follow up.So basically he's not sorry he did the thing, he's just sorry he got caught.
While what Branca said is funny, it's a bit late for him to be offering any sort of recrimination. He's helped enable this bullshit.KEK thats amazing, I doubt any of what Branca said actually sunk into whats left of Nicks brain.
This is the classic narcissist "I'm sorry for what you made me do" apology.βIβm sorry Iβm smarter and better than everyone and Iβm sorry I hate drama. Iβll try harder to remember everyone else loves drama and is stupid. Iβm very humble, you see.β
This faggot makes it so enjoyable to watch him fuck up his life. Keep going, Nicky!
"I stayed out of it for a very long time, until Thursday, when I was kind of brought into it, I'm not going to rehash that, I'm not going to go through what happened..."
"I never wanted to be involved in that, I don't like being pulled into that."
"I am trying to de-escalate my own show from drama, and I got way too far into it. And I didn't appreciate being pulled in, so like I said, went off the handle a little bit, that's how it goes. And if people don't like that apology, that reasoning, whatever, that's fine, like it just is there."
I viewed it as a superchat with potential benefits. Locals itself is a shitty platform full of weirdos. Nick is the only faggot to try to change it into a private AOL chatroom.I don't get why people subscribe to anything for over a year in advance. So many things can go wrong.
I can see Eric and related actual creators leeching from his audience. They are ripe to be plucked, imo. They already have a million other options for law content so Rekieta is toast if he doesn't turn things around.I'm part of that overlap but I find ISOM decent enough and the Rippaverse intriguing enough to get more into. Eric is actually providing goods I'm interested in. Nick only provides a few good laughs a few times a week. I can get that anywhere. My money's with Eric.
There's no way Dick is going to get big leagued by a woman and not lose his mind over it. Maybe if it was a man that said it sure it would have ended but oh no, the woman had to be the one to corner him and take his balls. Unforgivable.Fucking Christ, the cope...
Eric's problem is also your problem because Eric and you both seem to assume that Nick was operating in good faith and not continually redirecting the conversation back to a contrived hypothetical where Eric or his employee(s) look bad.I was watching the stream where Nick had Eric July on and it was so infuriating. Nick was obviously attempting to tell Eric that violence isn't the right answer here for people approaching his business location and tried to use a legal analysis to try and convince him, which was going over Eric's head. I think Branca said it best yesterday though, something along the lines of, "Do you want to put your fate in the hands of a prosecutor, judge, and 12 people you don't know?" I tend to side with Nick on that debate, it's too risky to react violently to stickers. Eric then argued that it was Riley's intentions that warrant a violent reaction. All Eric had to tell Nick was that it wasn't simply about this one action, but overall he's being harassed, which would have been a whole new and different discussion. I realized that Eric isn't very good with english as he was struggling to get his point across.

That said, upon rereading your post in more detail, you're right that Eric should have forcibly redirected the conversation to the broader perspective rather than argue over the nitty-gritty of imagined situations that didn't even happen. The problem is that Eric assumed that Nick was hoping to give him a reasonably fair hearing rather than set him up for gotchas to make him look bad.
