Re: Jury to See Video of Rittenhouse Wishing He Could "Shoot Rounds" at Black People

Prosecutors in Wisconsin want jurors to know what admitted Kenosha killer Kyle Rittenhouse said in the days before he shot and killed two people and injured a third in August 2020."Bro, I wish I had my ****ing AR," the 17-year-old says on a video some 15 days before the fatal incidents that occurred during a Black Lives Matter protest. "I'd start shooting rounds at them."
In the footage, Rittenhouse and others who appear to be inside a car are referencing a black man seen jogging out of and away from a CVS Pharmacy.
According to prosecutors, Rittenhouse expressed his desire to shoot at "several" such individuals at the drugstore because he believed they were stealing.
Rittenhouse's desire to shoot people is doubly relevant in his upcoming murder trial.
Should be simple show the video.
