I don't know how they can act like he wasn't acting in self defense. The video literally starts with him running away and being chased and he doesn't shoot until he starts being attacked. And there is literally photographic proof he was being attack.

Like how does knockout convince themselves that Kyle was the aggressor against peaceful protestor. Do they refuse to watch the video?

A lot of leftwingers are just scared that there's a precedent set for defending yourself against mob violence. They're upset this means they won't be allowed to beat random people into a coma at protests any more like they did with the dude trying to put out fires at his business. It's why they're clinging to this narrative so hard and they damn well know it deep down.

It doesn't help that all the media they listen to isn't informing them that courts at this level and criminal trials don't set precedents but instead is screaming about how NOW THIS MEANS TRUMPMAGA CAN KILL YOU IN YOUR SLEEP IF YOU SUPPORT BLM!

As expected here come the troons who are starting to spazz and justify looting/rioting because of the "le property is insured lmao" meme

and of course any reasonable arguments get dumbed down, because apparently in the land of the free you have no justification to protect your or others property.

somebody explain to these idiots that burning down their own communities and then hiding behind a group of minorities isn't the same as "peaceful protesting".

i dont give a fuck about anything related to the rittenhouse situation but I can't help but stay invested in the KO thread because it's a full netflix comedy special tier of these troon fucks saying "those fucking hivemind republicans!!!" then turning around and dogpiling anyone who even suggests that technically kyle did not break the law in any way despite whatever troon mental gymnastics they've achieved

little bit ironic that KO is severely obsessed with a borderline minor, ain't it :lit:

Uncle Hugo's; a book store that was destroyed during the george fluoride protests is unable to find real-estate. If they don't do so within 2 years they will get raped by taxes.

"There is a part of the tax code that is meant to help businesses that have been burnt out to get back into business. The business has two years to buy a new building to replace the old building and avoid capital gains treatment on the insurance pay-out. A few days before May 15 my tax guy told me that if I missed that 2 year window, about $475,000 of the insurance pay-out would go to the government in capital gains tax–a result that I’d rather avoid. He also told me for the first time that at least 51% of the building I bought had to be used for the Uncles or else I would still have to pay the capital gains tax. I had looked at several other strip malls where about 1/3 of the mall was standing empty, and some free standing buildings where half of the first floor was vacant but there were rented apartments on the second floor. If I had liked any of those options, I might have made an offer that used up most of the insurance money, and then had IRS come after me for $475,000 of the insurance money. At least now I can narrow the kinds of properties to consider. I spent over an hour on Friday looking over the commercial real estate listing, as I do weekly. I found that two more of the options that I thought might work, but I wasn’t very excited about, had deals pending. I didn’t find any new listings that were worth looking at. I’ll check again next week. I did see an article that predicted that about 35% of the small businesses that haven’t yet gone under will go out of business by the end of the year, as all the covid-19 rescue plans wind down."

Most KO users are middle class kiddies who've just sat in comfy coding/engineering jobs for most of their lives and think all small business owners are Hitlers out to underpay workers. They don't understand the actual difficulty of setting up a business and what having said business destroyed can do to a persons life.

You can tell. Stuff like stripping the poor of their agency (they just destroy small businesses because of the system man) and saying "its just stuff" when talking about small business owners losing everything really shows that most of them are descended from professional–managerial class. "Why would somebody defend their community?" is a question asked by somebody who always moves around and has no roots.

The discussion of the Roof Koreans is especially funny. They're pushing the racist myth that it was only Koreans fighting on those roofs. In reality black, Hispanic, and white employees and friends also helped defend Koreatown from the Black and Hispanic gangs who specifically targeted Koreatown. Its also funny how they twist the LA riots into the police directing the mob into Koreatown when in reality it was the police refusing to act because of racist black nativists in government.

Huh. So ultimately, antifa is doing a really good job of assisting megacorporations like Amazon in their attempts to consolidate the retail industry. Businesses that manage to hold out in this day and age kust conveniently burned down whenever the law is enforced, and then they have to struggle with getting rebuilt and making income again on top of everything else. Funny how things work isn't it; don't worry though, they're the scrappy rebel underdogs.

The owners are typical loony leftist Minneapolis whites, but the bookstore was a treasure despite them. Now it's just fucked.

Before the insurance garbage it was the city going after them (and other businesses) with massive fines for not cleaning up the toxic debris fast enough, when a half billion dollars worth of businesses burned and during a pandemic - when it was pretty much the city's and state's fault for not bothering to enforce the laws for three days. The state capitol was well protected though. Oh, and the Federal Reserve branch in Minneapolis because they were desperate to keep the feds from sweeping in and fixing the mess they were allowing.

This all could have been under control in hours. Once the optics got bad enough, shit was stopped fucking immediately.
