lolife67 03/24/24 1:20:40 AM #339 | Umbreon posted... "He isn't some killer" when he literally said he wanted to kill people. Him being a chickenshit doesn't change that. StealThisSheen posted... You said he "isn't some killer."Yes, I misspoke. I was trying to set he isn't just a stone cold killer. |

lolife67 03/24/24 1:12:00 AM #336 | StealThisSheen posted... Why? What's relevant about the court case, when this topic is almost entirely about his character and what he has done since?That was literally my first post and what I've been discussing ever since. You'd have to go back and re-read the topic to see why. |

lolife67 03/24/24 1:05:15 AM #334 | StealThisSheen posted... Who is talking about a court case, here? We're talking about him as a person.I was talking about the court case. That's been my point all along. I've already agreed on his character. And I agree the court failed. The verdict was correct but the charge was wrong and that's why justice wasn't done. |
Topic | Kyle Rittenhouse Storms Off Stage |
lolife67 03/24/24 12:48:37 AM #332 | StealThisSheen posted... I feel like this doesn't matter. He went there wanting to kill somebody, he did kill somebody, and now he's literally grifting off of the fact that he killed somebody. Nothing else really matters.Understood. But that's not how court cases are supposed to work. |

lolife67 03/23/24 11:31:41 PM #322 | StealThisSheen posted... If I wasn't happy I shot somebody, I wouldn't try to literally market myself based on being "That guy that shot people." But maybe that's just me.Again, I'm speaking about in that moment. He wasn't thinking "I want to kill these people. It'll be totally cool!" Dude was sh***ing himself. |

lolife67 03/23/24 8:54:10 PM #315 | ssb_yunglink2 posted... Thinking that you want a reason to kill another human is despicable.Sure. Nobody's claiming he's not a POS. But he wasn't on trial for that. |
Topic | Kyle Rittenhouse Storms Off Stage |
lolife67 03/23/24 8:43:38 PM #313 | ssb_yunglink2 posted... Why did he need to bring a gun? hell why was he there?It's completely possible to think you want something to happen but then when it does, it's not what you expected/wanted after all. |
Topic | Kyle Rittenhouse Storms Off Stage |
lolife67 03/23/24 8:13:28 PM #309 | creativerealms posted... It can be self defense and he could have gone there hoping for a situation where he would be able to use his gun. Those two things are not mutually exclusive.Correct. He didn't look happy he got to shoot someone. He looked scared as hell lol |

All humans are capable of the same thing.Yes but humans in the comic world can also get powers, yet aren't hated like mutants are. So the comparison still works. |

lolife67 03/23/24 7:15:47 PM #4 | Rosstin316 posted... Isnt she on Rhaenyras side or am I misremembering?Yes but this is before the war actually started. So she doesn't want to be responsible for setting things off. |
Topic | Apparently you can't be racist towards "white" people? |
lolife67 03/23/24 5:55:57 PM #26 | "Racism" has been redefined (by some) as a systemic prejudicial practices, policies and attitudes based around race. As such no, white people generally cannot experience racism. They can, however, experience prejudice based on their race. This is also a definition of racism (as far as I know it hasn't officially been changed to the former?) But, at the end of the day, arguing the definition is just a lame way of dismissing whatever the original point being made is. |

lolife67 03/23/24 4:23:59 PM #213 | famfam posted... they are literally going to be coming in from a different universe (this/next) year? Perhaps I am wrong, but have they crossed over at all in any of the other MCU movies/shows (except like in the latest Dr. Strange when they literally came from another universe). The MCU as we've seen it in every other movie (in this era) has had no allusions to mutants or any of that politics at all. Which is why it would be kind of weird (unless they are going to wave it off as they are coming in from a different universe)We're talking comics, not movies. |

lolife67 03/23/24 2:41:54 PM #209 | famfam posted... they have traditionally been different universes. There is a bit of oddness that comes from the MCU trying to merge the two. It actually doesn't align wellUm, no. Traditionally, they've existed in the same universe for decades. |

lolife67 03/23/24 2:38:49 PM #299 | NoxObscuras posted... But there's an exemption for minors being able to posses long barrel rifles, specifically for hunting. And because of the vague way the law is worded, they were able to get the gun charged dropped, even though he clearly wasn't using it for hunting.Yes, this tracks with what I recall. Thank you. |

lolife67 03/23/24 2:02:06 PM #279 | Did the victim's families ever sue him in civil court? That seems like one they could actually win. |
Topic | Kyle Rittenhouse Storms Off Stage |
lolife67 03/23/24 1:59:11 PM #275 | Kradek posted... Type of gun? You mean a high-powered semi-automatic rifle? It wasn't a shotgun or single shot hunting rifle he procured. If AR-15's have less regulations than guns actually used for hunting then we are truly screwed.I don't recall the specifics but I remember it was the specific type of rifle that is legal for him to have. And yeah, our gun laws are ridiculously screwed up. Good luck changing that, though. |
Topic | Kyle Rittenhouse Storms Off Stage |
lolife67 03/23/24 1:54:57 PM #268 | Kradek posted... It shouldn't have been, though. He was underage and so had his girlfriend's brother buy him the gun with money Rittenhouse gave him because he was of age. How is that not the same as having someone of age buy cigarettes or alcohol for a minor? It wasn't even a family member who bought it for him. He was also underaged while open carrying that night in Kenosha, if I'm not mistaken.I thought it was due to the type of gun as to why it wasn't illegal? But yeah, if this is the case then the gf's brother should be charged. |

lolife67 03/23/24 1:52:54 PM #266 | SiO4 posted... Well, I guess it could be 'perceived' as retreating, but he knew what he was doing.Oh, he's definitely that stupid. I think he's more than proven that at this point. Like I said earlier, he was a young, stupid kid who thought he was going to go and be a badass until it actually went down. Then he turned b****made. |
Topic | Kyle Rittenhouse Storms Off Stage |
lolife67 03/23/24 1:44:08 PM #256 | SiO4 posted... As I recall he had already shot someone who threw something in plastic bag at him.Had he? I thought the first person was shot as he was running backwards? Or was that the second? |

lolife67 03/23/24 1:39:19 PM #254 | [LFAQs-redacted-quote] I mean, nobody's making you respond to my posts lol I don't really care if you agree or not. Feel as you will. |
Topic | Kyle Rittenhouse Storms Off Stage |
lolife67 03/23/24 1:29:26 PM #252 | [LFAQs-redacted-quote] I'm not so sure because when the incident happens he's seen retreating, not advancing. In that moment, he did fear for his life. Hence the verdict. |

lolife67 03/23/24 1:19:43 PM #250 | ClayGuida posted... I personally don't think it was fair when the judge refused to allow gun charges or his prior and post actions to be addressed during the trial.I hadn't been back to this topic, so sorry for the late response. I can certainly understand your POV. Those incidents could go towards his personality but also, it's not the same situation (beating a girl still makes him a coward in this case.) And apparently the gun was legal, otherwise they really should've went with Felony Homicide. I was thinking they should've went for a lesser charge, personally. Proving intent wasn't going to happen with the video footage of him actually retreating. That's what made it a self defense claim. He wasn't the aggressor in the situation. |

lolife67 03/23/24 1:21:12 AM #123 | In the past few years we've seen a ridiculous lack of media literacy in geek/nerd spaces. People genuinely don't get the premise of Star Trek and Star Wars, either. |
Topic | Kyle Rittenhouse Storms Off Stage |
lolife67 03/22/24 12:13:20 PM #151 | Toonstrack posted... People who want to kill people don't need an excuse to do so. Case in point: his attackers.Correct. Kyle is a coward and acted like it. He isn't done killer lol he literally ran away and was terrified. He was a stupid teen who talked big and bad but, when it came down to it, he caved. So while I agree he's revealing himself to be a huge POS, his trial had a fair outcome based on the evidence and charges. |

lolife67 03/21/24 10:37:21 AM #160 | Fire_Emblem_ posted... Again how did he get support for giving out money to foreign people?No. He's saying only one side is against giving more money to the American people. We can actually afford to give both foreign aid and domestic. So why are you supporting the side that's against giving Americans more money? |

lolife67 03/20/24 6:39:41 AM #68 | Dark_Arbron posted... Im not insinuating anything, I just read his post in what was probably a vacuum.You are assuming that if you don't think what he said is untrue. You may just not have actually thought it through. |
Topic | Elon Musk is a racist piece of crap |
lolife67 03/20/24 6:31:11 AM #64 | Dark_Arbron posted... I reread his post several times and isnt it? If youre hiring based on sex or race then that means youre hiring based on something other than merit (best person for the job). If you were hiring based on merit then sex or race wouldnt factor into it.You and the other poster seem to be insinuating a minority can not ALSO meet the other qualifications for a position. Companies with DEI programs aren't hiring unqualified people just because they're a minority. |

lolife67 03/19/24 11:54:12 AM #32 | LeCh0nk posted... That's because most people don't consider that particular move a "subspecialty." It's just airbending used lethally.Exactly. That's not a subspecialty. Spiritbending is, though. |
