Not quite sure what they think they are going to get out of those having read such state materials very recently.

White guy kills four wearing combat gear in Lakeland, FL, including a baby; the police don't shoot him.

Former Marine, reportedly on meth.

The County Sheriff's quote is a lot

“It would have been nice if he would have come out with a gun ... We would have shot him up a lot. But he didn’t because he was a coward,” Judd said. “When someone chooses to give up, we take them into custody peacefully.”

I know this is a joke, but there is a thing in the Southern states where women are murdered because the Bible says divorce is a sin. There have been some cases of pastors killing their wives because that was seen as an easier option.

I was trying to tie it in with the abortion decision the other day, more along the lines of letting the kids play with your gun

Ah, I was just spinning it further given there is already a propensity to gamble on getting away with murder.

Kyle Rittenhouse acquitted on all charges.

[elguapo4]

Jesus.

[Patrick Thistle]

Fucking hell, America.

At this rate anyone wanting justice will have to gun up and go get it themselves.

[Incandenza]

Were you expecting a different outcome?

[elguapo4]

Hoping yes, expecting probably not.

It was never going to work out well when the prosecution witness admitted approaching the defendant while armed and pointing a gun at him. The DA's office did a terrible job. I know that ignores a lot of other factors, but the prosecution's failures were embarrassing.

[caja-dglh]

I just really hope the jury in Florida doesn't reach the same conclusion in Florida. That would be disasterous.

[Sam]

Were you expecting a different outcome?

Nope. Still stunned for a few moments when it came up on my Twitter feed, though.

[Toby Gymshorts]

I have no words for this.

[Tactical Genius]

So will the good people of OTF be boycotting the world cup in the USA due to their "interesting" legal system.

[Hot Pepsi]

Judge was bent too.

This fucking place...

[Sean of the Shed]

I don't know how the American justice system works.
Can anything be done to get him back in a courtroom to face any kind of charge? Is there any way this can be overturned by a higher justice?

[WOM]

I could have seen a hung jury, but a unanimous acquittal on all charges? I'm just....amazed.

Very little.

He can't be tried again for any of the underlying acts under state law because of the Constitutional prohibition of "double jeopardy" and the chances of a federal charge are very small.

[Toby Gymshorts]

Fucking horrid little shit. All of this stinks.
