Kyle Rittenhouse tears for victims or himself?

[candycorn]

to many, the emotion of Rittenhouse’s testimony seemed to stem not from his memories of the incident, but from the indignant entitlement of a white man thwarted in the enforcement of his own privilege.

Many compared Rittenhouse’s tears during his testimony to those of Brett Kavanaugh, who shouted, red-faced and spitting, during his confirmation hearings, when he was asked questions about his alleged assault of Christine Blasey Ford, back when he was Rittenhouse’s age. Both of the displays prompted questions about their sincerity and opportunism.

The common thread in these rightwing expressions of masculine emotion is that when conservative men express their feelings, they don’t do so as a gesture of humility or need. Instead, they wield their feelings as a threat.

Kyle Rittenhouse isn’t crying for those he hurt. His tears, tellingly, are for himself | Moira Donegan

When conservative men like Rittenhouse and Brett Kavanaugh express their feelings, it is an act of thwarted entitlement – or a threat

I think he was a stupid kid who left the safety of his fellow militia members and ran off into a crowd of hostile demonstrators. Something was bound to happen and it did.

Were Kyle's tears for his victims?

No.

He was afraid.

It was terrible acting.

I wonder how many victims Rittenhouse saved from these baby rapers.

It was terrible acting.

I don't believe it was acting.

One can be proud of being able to and actually defending himself in combat, while being sad about having to take a life.

Hmmm…weapons charges dropped…why are you lying?

Just because the charges were dropped doesn't mean Dough Boy didn't break the law.

Did you know 71% of all firearms charges are dropped in the state of Delaware alone?

I suppose all those people aren't guilty of anything either right?

Well, as libs would say, “No conviction, No crime.”

Don’t do the crime if you can’t do the time.

What crime?
