The ONLY thing I'm saying here is that it was all easily avoidable. I don't think Rittenhouse should be demonized, but he shouldn't be held up as a hero, either.


I'm fairly neutral on his standing as hero, but he's the only one getting the "he shouldn't have been there" treatment. No one is saying there shouldn't have been violent riots or there shouldn't have been local politicians/leaders/law enforcement allowing this bullshite to go on. For some reason, he's getting the blame for all this and no one else.

I think there are a lot of people on all sides saying there shouldn't have been violent riots and that leaders and law enforcement shouldn't have allowed it.

The reason is probably because he's the one who killed people.


What is your opinion on all those in here blaming the 2nd and 3rd people for getting shot for trying to disarm a person who had just killed someone?

They were all too busy making sure they weren't effected. The first responders and politicians of that area showed exactly what they thought of the peasants who serve them. If the people of the area had half a brain they would completely turnover all elected officials and find those who will serve the elected, not expect to be served by the electorate.

Who
Were
Trying

Kill
Him

If it wasn't Kyle, it would have been someone else. You just don't get it. The left wing rioters werent peacefully protesting. This wasn't avoidable if Kyle was not there, he just happened to be present. And thank god.

You are so in love with that dude. Your hero pulled a gun on Him. Your hero probably would have killed him.

Beating someone over the head and trying to curb stomp an individual on the ground isn't trying to disarm them. Doing this to someone running towards police saying he is going to turn himself in isn't doing this. Chanting "kill him, cranium him" while he is on the ground isn't doing this. Trying to execute him with a gun that jammed isn't trying to do this. You keep interjecting they were just trying to disarm him, what of the video, audio, or other evidence says they were trying to do anything other than kill him as he was running to turn himself in?

Those people are correctly placing blame on the rioters. Had they just stayed home, they never would have been killed by a patriot protecting the community. They are responsible for a lot of money lost in property damage and now legal fees. Their fate was completely avoidable on their end.

Ding ding ding

Had they not rioted, none of this would have happened.

Their decision to riot is what caused this.

You see someone who killed people. I see someone that saved his own life from pedos and degenerates

I agree that it was avoidable, but funny how you label them "rioters" with absolutely zero evidence. You think Rittenhouse was the only one there with good intentions? The first dude deserved it, but the 2nd and 3rd were fighting a perceived threat - just like Rittenhouse.

No one in the media has ever said that. Those are the ones with the most influence and they've been deafeningly silent.

That's not the point I was making.

They were trying to kill him or cause great bodily harm as he was running away. That means they were the aggressors and he was 1000% within his rights to use deadly force. They weren't there to disarm him and turn him over to the cops, they were there to try to kill him. I don't know why you continue think the 2nd and 3rd people who were shot were some sort of altruistic duo trying to protect the community at large. They were both violent rioters who were there to burn a city down and cause mayhem by any means necessary. You have some sort of strange devotion to Grosskreutz as if he were just some innocent bystander. The truth is you have absolutely no clue what the guy even testified about but you saw some headline somewhere about how he was just trying to protect Kenosha from an "active shooter" and you've regurgitated that nonsense over 10 pages because you don't know what you're talking about.

Defamation lawsuits
Criminal harassment lawsuits
Libel lawsuits

Make as part of the settlement a demand for a public televised apology from each one

I'd say the chances of this dude doing any sort of research about this case extending beyond skimming twitter is hovering around 0%.

Rittenhouse pursued nobody

These guys pursued Rittenhouse

Not the same, no matter how much you want it to be

So why were they attacking the armed man who had just killed someone instead of burning things and causing mayhem? Be honest now, you seriously don't see the biased view here?

Posters in here talking about erecting statues to Rittenhouse, and I'm the one with a strange devotion to someone.

You mean the person who was in full retreat the entire time, and never presented his weapon until he was attacked by aggressors?
