ADA Thomas Binger has been shooting his mouth off during his closing arguments in the Kyle Rittenhouse trial today. Thank goodness that’s the only thing he’s shot, at least so far.
Our earlier post on Binger’s insane “you lose the right to self-defense when you’re the one who brought the gun” included this tweet about Binger allowing himself to demonstrate to the jury exactly what it looked like when Kyle Rittenhouse pointed his AR-15 at Joseph Rosenbaum and pulled the trigger:
During his closing argument, prosecutor Binger demonstrates how #KyleRittenhouse put down the fire exinguisher and pointed his gun at Joseph Rosenbaum. He says #KyleRittenhouse can't claim self-defense when he created the danger. @LawCrimeNetwork pic.twitter.com/fmbjHJY384

But that angle doesn’t do justice to the full awfulness of what Binger actually did:
Good God! Prosecutor takes the AR (an admitted exhibit), says his assistant has “ checked it to be sure it isn’t loaded.” Then, without himself opening the action to confirm unloaded, raises it and points it in the direction of the jury!
Inexcusable.

We may not have believed it ourselves had we not seen it:

It’s on the trigger.
Truly amazing. He’s incredible at shooting himself in the foot. https://t.co/5VvdIXfpx2

Suppose that’s still better than shooting jurors in the face.

Our jaws have dropped plenty of times during the Kyle Rittenhouse trial, but this is just … this is on a whole ‘nother level.

Some people should, in fact, have their gun taken away.

Everyone. Everyone should tag Stephen Gutowski.
“Somebody else already checked it” he said as pointed the gun and pulled the trigger in a full courtroom

Did Alec Baldwin teach the Rittenhouse prosecutor how to handle firearms? https://t.co/OMt9gYX8l4

Was going to say "He attended the Alec Baldwin school of firearm safety and usage…"

Guns don't kill people. Morons like this guy and Alec Baldwin kill people. https://t.co/tCjBveoYZF
