I never expected you to go full on right-wing extremist Trump Cultist either, but here we are...
Well, I never expected the left to prop up Weekend at Bernies for President. All they had to do was put forth a functioning adult and they couldn’t do it, so here we are. :coffee: :coffee:
Except Joe Biden still has 1,000,000 the brains has your leader Trump.

BTK and I hung out once in Georgia and he didn't strike me as having a racist bone in his body.

Kyle's attorney (Pierce Bainbridge) released a statement on Friday. Full statement is at the link below.
Friday night, attorneys representing 17-year-old Kyle Rittenhouse, Pierce Bainbridge, released a statement in defense of the Antioch, Illinois teenager now charged with five felonies and one misdemeanor after prosecutors say he opened fire in Kenosha overnight into Wednesday, shooting three people and killing two of them.

After Kyle finished his work that day as a community lifeguard in Kenosha, he wanted to help clean up some of the damage, so he and a friend went to the local public high school to remove graffiti by rioters. Later in the day, they received information about a call for help from a local business owner, whose downtown Kenosha auto dealership was largely destroyed by mob violence. The business owner needed help to protect what he had left of his life’s work, including two nearby mechanic’s shops. Kyle and a friend armed themselves with rifles due to the deadly violence gripping Kenosha and many other American cities, and headed to the business premises. The weapons were in Wisconsin and never crossed state lines.
Was it deadly until he killed two people?

He goes on to blame people being out after curfew, blames the police for not enforcing curfew

Meanwhile ignoring the 17 year old illegally possessing and transporting a fire arm across state lines who was also out after curfew in a city he did not live in "protecting" a property which was not his.

Was his defense that he worked/owned that place?

Turns out that was a lie.

Self defense isn't a crime.

Kyle Rittenhouse will be a multimillionaire before he's 21, and he deserves it. God bless him.

I've heard that it wasn't his gun but a friend's from Wisconsin. If true it wasn't transported across state lines. The link says that he was working in Kenosha so he has ties to the community and that he was asked to help protect what was left of property that looters had previously damaged so he had a reason to be there.

The left wants to focus on the an out-of-town shooter who used an illegal firearm transported across state lines and the right wants to focus on the criminal history of people that were shot. Outsiders on both sides aggravated the situation and both sides should own that. The governor and local authorities did not respond quickly enough with the national guard, curfews, etc.

The entire event was tragic and shouldn't have happened but it did. Let's not double down on stupid and continue to respond to violence with more violence.
