re: Turning Kyle Rittenhouse into a rock star is weird

It is what it is. Kid has a lot of 'fans', but that's because they probably consider him an underdog, and lot of people love underdogs.
Potus, vpotus, all of Hollywood, most news outlets, universities, corporations, athletes.... crucified that kid for 14 months. They lied about him constantly. It was disgusting. It looked like thousands of assholes surrounding a puppy and taking turns kicking it.
The fact that rittenhouse was able to come out the other side unscathed... made people feel good.

I'm sure he would have if he'd been given a choice in the matter, but that ship was launched by the leftists that tried to wrongfully convict and that ship ain't coming back to port.

I’m happy he’s free. I don’t blame him for cashing in while he can. Lord knows finding an employer will be tough for him if he chooses a typical career path. Good luck and stay out of trouble as best you can young man.

We need heroes, and Kyle Rittenhouse did something heroic.
It’s not that he defend himself, and that he was willing to kill, but that is crucially important.
We need that toughness.
It’s that he had the courage to go out and protect the community when everyone else was hiding from the riots.

He is a representation of what liberty, freedom, and the 2nd amendment represents. He is also representative of how our judicial system should still work. He seems to be the last representation of hope we have for our country and people want to celebrate it and lift up the image of Kyle Rittnehouse. As I agree with your point, Kyle represents more than just a kid who beat the system. Hopefully a lawsuit, like the one by Sandmann, will start holding the media accountable for reporting agenda driven media to the masses.

I think we’re in trouble if we depend on lawyers and the courts to defend our freedom.
I can’t imagine a scenario where the courts would aggressively roll back the federal state, and improve our welfare.
We need Ethan Allen and the Green Mountain Boys.

Hmm…. so if BLM or antifa decide to destroy your town, you either give them “room to destroy” or you are putting yourself in the middle of a riot, and are no longer an innocent bystander?
Or was it trying to put out a fire that made him no longer an innocent bystander? Because that’s when they started trying to kill him.

If they learned their lesson with Sandmann, they wouldn't have slandered Rittenhouse.

The 17 year old kid is a rock star! 
1) Volunteers to clean graffiti left by the BLM rioters, looters, vandals, and arsonists.
2) Volunteers to protect the property of a “brown skinned” family from further arson.
3) Protects the property of this innocent family, a gas station, and a church.
4) Offers medical need to all.
5) Protects himself from a crazed pedophile who threatens to kill him, attacks him, and tries to take his gun away.
6) Then is chased by more felonious socialist mobsters, and is physically assaulted by three, one unknown who hit him in the back of his head, and two felons (jump kick man and dead skateboard arsehole). Then he fends off another felon who is illegally carrying a concealed pistol and who plans to empty it into him in his communist revolutionary fervor.
7) Then he becomes a political prisoner of the Democratic Party who bring the full force of the State of Wisconsin against him.
8) Every Democrat politician including Biden attack his innocence and reputation, and their mainstream media allies lie and vilify him 24/7.
9) The Democrat DA suborns perjury from the “brown skinned” family, they do not charge Unicep “I carry a gun because I would never use it” for the illegal gun, and portray him as an angelic medical man. They make false claims, try to stripe him of his 5th amendment rights, and falsify video to the defense. WOW!
10) Kyle emerges victorious and vindicated!
ROCKSTAR! DEFINITELY A ROCKSTAR!
Edit: Down voted but not refuted by a snowflake who cannot abide facts and truth!

What’s your address? I need to loot…. er have a discussion about race with you.
ETA: it was 15 minutes from home, and where he worked. It was only a different town because it is on the other side of a river.

Actually it was his town. He worked as a lifeguard for the community.
And shouldn’t Americans protect fellow Americans regardless of community boundaries?!

the left built a statue of George Floyd... even named streets after him...
But you think it's weird People really like Kyle because he's found innocent... Though they tried very hard to convict this young man Of murder?
Kyle is a lifeguard and was clean graffiti off of a school building...
George Floyd was peddling drugs and counterfeit money and spend a life in-and-out of prison...

They're both kinda weird, tbh. Kyle did nothing wrong and beat an overzealous prosecution, but that I don't see why that should make him some kind of figurehead or role model. Just like even if Floyd was completely innocent and the police officer was completely in the wrong, there would still be no reason to build statues commemorating his life. Our current political cultures are so starved for legitimacy and people who can bring their bases together that they lionize and make martyrs out of people who don't deserve it just to get extra foot traffic.

This - I don't like seeing him parading around - but neither do I like the entire media/entertainment/hi-tech/BrandoonDems pretend it didn't happen, and even continue the lie that prompted it.
Until that existential problem is eliminated, we need every tactic we can come up with to keep the truth in front of at least SOME of the public.

Don’t they introduce all of the people like that. I saw Don Jr get that same WWE intro

By your own admission he did nothing wrong, was set upon by the government of both Wisconsin and elected federal officials to destroy his life, and survived the onslaught, not to mention 4 or 5 people trying to kill him for trying to extinguish a fire they had set. Just the fact that he made it through the entire riot ordeal, on video mind you, without making a single move that could be construed as anything other than defending his life makes him incredibly exceptional.

Sorta, it's just an equal but opposite reaction to the left labeling him a white supremacist/terrorist.
I do see him as a hero of sorts, but the same can be said for tens of thousands of our troops.
Mad respect to him, but we don't need a firework show and jet fly over when he walks up to the mic. He deserves a platform, sure, but not like that.
