I have, but I believe there\u2019s a variety of guns including shotguns, pistols,\u201d Rittenhouse explained. \u201cThere\u2019s guns in video games that resemble all guns.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>However, the prosecution continued, bluntly asking the teen if he played <em>Call of Duty<\/em>. The exchange was as follows:<\/p>\n<blockquote readability=\"18\">\n<p><strong>Prosecution:<\/strong> Isn\u2019t it true when you would hang out with Dominick Black, you would play <em>Call of Duty<\/em> and other first person shooter video games?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rittenhouse:<\/strong> Sometimes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Prosecution:<\/strong> And those are games in which you use weapons like AR-15s to pretty much shoot anybody who comes at you. Correct?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rittenhouse:<\/strong> It\u2019s a video game where two players are playing together. I don\u2019t really understand the meaning of your question to be honest.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Prosecution:<\/strong> Isn\u2019t one of the things people do in these video games try and kill everyone else with your guns.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rittenhouse:<\/strong> Yeah in the video game. It\u2019s just a video game. It\u2019s not real life.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>At that point, the prosecution pivoted to a different subject.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier in the trial, Judge Bruce Schroeder of the Kenosha County Court \u201caccused prosecutors of a \u2018grave constitutional violation\u2019 in the murder trial of Kyle Rittenhouse on Wednesday morning after they tried to comment on his earlier reactions to testimony in the case,\u201d as Breitbart News <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/law-and-order\/2021\/11\/10\/furious-judge-in-rittenhouse-trial-accuses-prosecution-of-grave-constitutional-violation\/\">detailed<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>At one point in the trial, Rittenhouse <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/law-and-order\/2021\/11\/10\/watch-rittenhouse-breaks-down-on-witness-stand-as-he-describes-chase-that-led-to-firefight\/\">broke down<\/a> in tears as he described the events that led up to the fatal shooting.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>WATCH:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"video-src-attr\">Law&amp;Crime Network \/ YouTube<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The prosecution on Wednesday questioned Kyle Rittenhouse \u2014 the 18-year-old who is on trial for murder for the shooting in Kenosha, Wisconsin, during the Black Lives Matter riots last year &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":15,"featured_media":2315279,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-994852","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/994852","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/15"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=994852"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/994852\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2315279"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=994852"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=994852"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=994852"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
