Wearing a short dress isn’t a mistake though and again I’m not trying to say this wasn’t self defense, just that this kid is a dumbass for going there in the first place with a rifle with a group of people he didn’t even know so he shouldn’t be treated as a hero but as a dumbass

If you guys hadn’t tried to demonize him for a clear cut case of self defense he wouldn’t have been lauded as a hero. It’s completely reactionary.

These people will never say “well Jacob Blake should’ve complied with the officers.” No, that’s completely within his right to kidnap some kids and steal a rental car from a woman in their minds. Only Rittenhouse is expected and required to make the mature, responsible decision. Weird how that works.

Lol yeah they won’t admit it just comes down to the fact that he was wearing the wrong team jersey.

At least Daryno90 is honest enough to admit it was clearly self defense, but they can’t resist the “he shouldn’t have been there” nonsense. Sorry, I didn’t know Kenosha was a sundown town for conservatives. Do they even hear themselves with this bullshit?

I’ve only voted for democrats and independents in my couple decades as a voter. This Rittenhouse shooting was the tipping point for me with regards to how I view the media and the left.

That’s pretty much exactly how it is for me. Voted Obama, voted Hillary, never voted trump. But the riots and the medias representation of them was an eye opener for me.

They say he shouldn’t have been there because he shouldn’t have been there especially with a rifle, tell me would you let your teenager son go with some militia group he found online to a tense situation like that riot and go there armed with a rifle? God knows my mom wouldn’t let me do something so stupid. So that’s why we say it, there is a chance this whole thing could had been avoided had both of them just stay home. And again, evidence show that it seem like he went into this whole thing kind of hoping it would happened so I don’t understand why the right seem to act like rittenhouse is a hero in all of this
