-War on Police-
Louisville officer who criticized Black Lives Matter and Antifa in email relieved of command, to retire
[FoxNews] A Louisville police officer who criticized Black Lives Matter activists and Antifa supporters in an email last month was relieved of her command and will retire, officials said Friday.

Maj. Bridget Hallahan, 47, sent an email in August saying members of both groups will be "the ones washing our cars" and "cashing us out at the Walmart." In response, she was relieved of her duties leading the Louisville Metro Police Department's Fifth Division and will retire Oct. 1, interim Chief Robert Schroeder said during a news briefing.

"We are aware of these emails and we have been looking into them," Schroeder said. "They were her personal opinions and do not represent the views of this department."

17 Year Old Charged in Kenosha Shootings For Defending His Life Fights Extradition
[Yahoo] WAUKEGAN, Ill. — The 17-year-old charged in the shooting deaths of two protesters in Wisconsin is fighting his extradition from Illinois, but his attorneys didn't outline their strategy during a brief hearing on Friday and legal experts say there isn't much the teen can do to stop it.

Kyle Rittenhouse surrendered to police in his hometown of Antioch, Illinois, a day after prosecutors say he shot and killed two protesters and wounded a third on the streets of Kenosha on Aug. 25. If convicted of one of the most serious charges he faces, he would be sentenced to life in prison.

Rittenhouse's attorneys have said he acted in self-defense and have portrayed him as a courageous patriot who was exercising his right to bear arms during a night of unrest over the police shooting of Jacob Blake, who is Black. And his arrest has become a rallying point for some on the right, with a legal defense fund that has attracted millions in donations. But others see Rittenhouse as a domestic terrorist whose presence with a rifle incited the protesters.

That would be the cat/meat logic crowd. No. Not gonna fly.

#2  portrayed him as a courageous patriot who was exercising his right to bear arms

Is this article a fucking joke?

How can someone write 5,000 words characterizing this man's self-defense effort and not once use the words SELF DEFENSE?

We don't have an independent, truth-seeking free press anymore.

It's all Pravda now.
Lies 24/7

#3  The defense to extradition is clear: there was no crime, as it was obviously self-defense. The only deader that was questionable was the first, and the defense team has video showing shots fired BEFORE Rittenhouse fired any.

#4  It's Yahoo. Think CNN on the net. Extreamly leftist.

Also notice how they try to tie Kyle to Trump.

#5  They are using the system on this kid, his lawyers should use it right back.
Posted by: M. Murcek || 09/26/2020 2:51 Comments || Top||

#6  The bogus "narrative" now us that the kid was a "gang member" and - you guessed it - a "white supremacist."

No wonder Nick Sandmann's brilliant attorney, Lin Wood, hastened to join Kyle's legal defense team. Once again we're seeing deliberate, vicious, transparent lies on a grand scale from our media organizations. Screw these assholes

#7 
Remember at 17 he can join the USA Military with parental permission. There he will be trained by the same government that seeks to lock him up, to carry and use even more deadly variety of firearms and explosives.

So our government feels at 17 - 18 you are responsible enough to be military combat trained in numerous firearm and Explosive use. Including how to kill attackers. But as a civilian, not responsible enough to drink a beer or defend yourself?


Strange gun laws we have, aren't they.


I wonder if in part if his defense will be he was part of one the 400 Civilian Militia groups in the USA. Which are responding to these riots due to lack of Police law enforcement. eg. Where the police are following the cities Socialist-Democrat elected officials issued stand down orders and getting snipped and killed.

#8  /\ Remember at 17 he can join the USA Military with parental permission.

"Join" or even be drafted into service.

#9  I wonder if the judge will offer him the choice: Marines or jail?
Posted by: g(r)omgoru || 09/26/2020 7:29 Comments || Top||

#10  BTW: More importantly remember what he shot and/or Killed.

Joseph Don Rosenbaum (killed)
LONG list of crimes - including Sex offender.
and other felonies.

Gaige Paul Grosskreutz - Radical Communist Revolutionary. A long criminal list also. A member of a Radical group that has had members shoot and kill police.

Anthony M. Huber - (killed) - habitual domestic abuse repeater. Weapons charges, Drug arrests & use, Recklessly Endangering Safety Felony, Strangulation and Suffocation Felony , False Imprisonment Felon, multiple felony uses of a weapons, robbery and etc...

For the full list of what Mr. Kyle Rittenhouse help clean the US society of, see: https://www.wisconsinrightnow.com/2020/08/28/kenosha-shooting/ for their full Criminal Rap sheets

#11  Let's get the wording right. He didn't kill two protestors. He shot and killed two armed assailants during the protests. I hope his lawyer doesn't f#ck up like this.
Posted by: Dron66046 || 09/26/2020 7:44 Comments || Top||

#12  As a legal battlespace prep, fighting extradition gives the defense team a chance to publicly air the fact that, given the video evidence, the charges are politically motivated and absurd.

ah, the old 'don't inflame the Islamic hordes' defense.

Remember, this is the same military that puts an 18 year old in charge of millions of dollars worth of equipment and 4 other guys, but forbids you to have a hot plate in your room because you aren't responsible enough.

#16  ...and bayonets have to be stored in the arms room as they're dangerous, but their entrenching tools are in their ready kit. We won't mention bunk adapters.

#17  Another question is why people in Kenosha apparently aren't protesting against the prosecutors, in front of the DA's office and in front of private residences, taking a note from the left's playbook.

Would all Kenosha residents have been comfortable with their hometown being torched?

Are all Kenosha residents comfortable with the taxpayer funded legal system turning into an accomplice of an arsonist mob?

#18  Re #8: Back in the day, you only registered for the draft, and could be drafted, at age 18.

from someone who joined the Navy to "evade" the draft in 1969.
