A car chasing down one unarmed man, and the jury is hearing the prosecution point that out, not just with evidence or common sense logical arguments. at one point this prosecutor just said, quote, come on, lets get real. >> he had his gun, diego has his gun, everybody had a gun -- everybody in this case had a gun except ahmaud arbery. what aural most happened? come on, lets get real. thats some of what this jury has to weigh. in the other wisconsin case, some of the most influential voices on th...

Time. thats something the prosecution has torn into noting there was no arrest and the defendants never even said the words. >> a citizens arrest is for emergency situations where a crime happens right in front of you and you can take action right then and there to arrest somebody because you know about it, youve seen it, youre taking action right then and there. if its a felony, you can run after the person and chase them down. thats all this means. its not a citizens arrest. they never said it...

Of cops. are you aware of that as real law, and what are your thoughts on it? >> right off the bat, of course im not an attorney. but common sense tells me that individuals operating under the color of law without proper authority, there are issues and concerns. its quite clear in the arbery case, as is the case in the rittenhouse situation, its quite clear that individuals firmly believe that they can kind of self-dep ties when it involves issues of either black lives or black interests, and th...

Self-defense, which is an affirmative defense where you say, in addition there are these facts that exonerate me. >> is there a suggestion that the jury may get the case today, or will it extend to tomorrow? >> its likely. you never know. there are sometimes last-minute motions the judge needs to hear before it gets to jury instructions. jury instructions can take a long time. theyre long, often boring, theyre confusing, and they can take up a couple of hours sometimes, depending on objections t...

Ties yourself as law enforcement and act as law enforcement and even be given certain courtesies and professional courtesies as law enforcement as long as its against throws two individuals. >> all such important points. its heavy stuff. im mention again for accuracy for the viewers, in the arbery case, of course, theres a separate hate crimes issue that has yet to be litigated which goes to the underlying evidence of documented racism. the prosecutors in this murder trial are steering away from...

Also complex in the sense it was about a blm rally, and the victims happened to be white individuals at a black lives matter matter. rittenhouse speaking out makes a claim about all of that. first time were hearing from him post trial. here is that. >> the case has nothing to do with race and never had anything to do with race. it had to do with the right to self-defense. im not a racist person. i support the blm movement. i support peacefully demonstrating. i believe there needs to be change. i...

These domestic terrorists or individuals -- not necessarily these, but domestic terrorists or individuals who engage in hate crimes as vigil an tease. when i think of vigilantes, i think of individuals who think, in essence, the ultimate objective really is more important than the means in which they use it. its always supposedly towards justice. i think sometimes, and in these cases in particular, there was no just desire. there was just injustice and unjust actions that led to the death of ind...

So thats frankly, i hear that as a lawyer, hes trying to lay the foundation hes not a bad guy. remember whats so important to understand about race in america. its not that racism only harms people who are black, and part of what happened in this case is that people who showed up including people who were white to say we think the justice system needs fixing. when theyre demonstrating, the police see a young man with a semi automatic rifle and offer him a bottled water and thanking him for being...
