>Civilian violence. Shot heard ‘round the world.
>Law didn’t give violent groups reason to terrorize, begin terror either way as a means to enact “justice” on Rittenhouse and the law. Shot heard ‘round the world.
Every option unlocks military. Shot heard…
>with prejudice
As the jury began weighing the case against Kyle Rittenhouse Tuesday, another legal issue remained in limbo before the court. Last week, Rittenhouse's attorneys asked for a mistrial with prejudice, meaning if the judge granted their motion, prosecutors could not refile the charges.
We WANT a mistrial w/ prejudice, am I correct here?

Okay yeah that's what I was getting at… I understand that with prejudice means the case can't be re-litigated, but a total acquittal still seems preferable.
Mistrial can also refer to an inconclusive trial, such as one in which the jury cannot agree on a verdict.
Rep. Jim Jordan to Newsmax: 'As We Speak, The FBI Is Spying on Parents'
After an FBI whistleblower released an Oct. 20 memo to the House Judiciary Committee Tuesday, ranking member, Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, told Newsmax that the FBI was actively “spying” on parents attending school board meetings throughout the country and “tagging” them for possible investigations.
“Just when you think it can't get any worse, we find out the FBI, as we speak is spying on parents,” Jordan said Tuesday during “Spicer & Co.” “Categorizing parents who are showing up at school board meetings, this is scary what they're doing.”
The memo, a joint message from the criminal investigations and counterterrorism divisions to all agents, asked to tag reports of threats or harassment to school board members, administrators, teachers, and others, as “EDUOFFICIALS” to flag such reports for possible investigation by the federal law enforcement agency.
