@DonSwanzey@armstrongtimes@Riley_Gaines_@iamcardib So you are equating someone willing to put themselves in harms way to protect other people and their property and was attacked violently with weapons to someone who went into someone else tent, acted in a provocative manor, then stabbed someone? Yeah, they are sure similar…not
@DonSwanzey@armstrongtimes@Riley_Gaines_@iamcardib George Zimmerman yes. Rittenhouse no. Rittenhouse was attacked by a man with a gun after going somewhere to help protect private property from rioters. Zimmerman was a wanna be cop that should have gone to jail.
@DonSwanzey@armstrongtimes@Riley_Gaines_@iamcardib Bottom line, the entire situation could have been avoided had he either left when asked, not stoked the flames with his words, and not brought a knife on school property. The guy was an agitator and instigator, plain and simple, but that’s just my opinion.
@DonSwanzey@armstrongtimes@Riley_Gaines_@iamcardib Nothing he said was a crime, however carrying a knife on school property was. And as far as the tent goes, while you are correct that it wasn’t private property, any other team would have responded the same, which witnesses agreed to in court.
@DonSwanzey@armstrongtimes@Riley_Gaines_@iamcardib Agressor. Period. Also, he STABBED the victim, which is a pretty crazy escalation from someone “pushing” him. Sorry, being aggressive and loud when you are in the wrong is provocation, and challenging someone to “do something about it” is being the instigator.
@DonSwanzey@armstrongtimes@Riley_Gaines_@iamcardib But they do all agree that he was the instigator and aggressor, telling the victim to make him leave, calling him a bitch, ETC. when he refused to leave a tent that he shouldn’t have been at in the first place, he was the instigator. When he told the victim to force him, he’s the
@armstrongtimes@Riley_Gaines_@iamcardib Did you even follow the case and evidence? His own defense witnesses said he was the aggressor, was NOT attacked or jumped, and was seen stabbing the victim. Serious question, not trying to be an asshole.
