LAM54: The Kyle Rittenhouse Trial

It's Lawd Awful... Murderers. Just about 2 hours of expert analysis of the Rittenhouse Trial, including audio clips. No, the judge has not been in the pocket of the defense. The reporting on this trial has been awful. Listen in!
All clips are from this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BEbcLqBE-ts&ab_channel=PBSNewsHour

pointing your gun at someone on the street is unlawful conduct - that's why they got the instruction

Opening Arguments

I need some clarification on the provocation thing that was presented as critical and the dismissed weapons misdemeanor. The statute says (2) Provocation affects the privilege of self-defense as follows: (a) A person who engages in unlawful conduct of a type likely to provoke others to attack him or her and thereby does provoke an attack is not entitled to claim the privilege of self-defense against such attack,.... But with the dismissed weapons misdemeanor what is the potential unlawful conduct? Wouldn't dismissing that charge make the provocation clause less likely?

Thanks for this guys. Your podcast has been so important for pushing back against our bad instincts on the left. It’s incredibly important to do that. The right is completely detached from reality at this point. The temptation to create our own is great, but we have to resist it. The left will never be so detached from reality that it gets thousands of people to await the second coming of JFK junior, but even these seemingly little departures from reality are important to correct. I imagine it’s a bit of a thankless job, but I just wanted to be the person to say, thank you. There are people here watching and noticing and deeply appreciating your work!
