Yes, Kyle Rittenhouse is a Hero

[AZrailwhale]

I agree the kid is a victim, but this isn't over.. This HS drop out is all pumped up with the attention he's gotten and he threatening Biden now.

I guess there are several million dollars in the kitty now.

He should be threatening Biden. Biden told a lie that he knew wasn’t supported by evidence for pure political gain. I hope Biden is held personally responsible for tens of millions in damages.

yep and three of them attacked Rittenhouse .

And paid. I'm glad. I hope it hurt. Anyone want to see the picture of the big chunk of ground meat that used to be Grosskreutz's arm?

PTSD takes years to get over, some people never manage the task. Watch recent veterans react to loud noises. I'm a Vietnam Era vet and at first, I'd actually go to ground when hearing sudden loud noises. Eventually it eased off to just starting, and now nearly fifty years later I finally don't react beyond looking for the source. Some people aren't as lucky as I was. Kyle will suffer from nightmares for years; no sane person can take a life without paying a price. Think about that next time you laugh at someone reacting to a noise, or drinking or self-medicating to excess to deal with his or her problems. Veterans got those problems defending YOU.

I remember as a student in the mid 1960s working in the summertime at my high school with the janitors doing summer maintenance.

I was working with a Korea War vet changing neon light bulbs. I was on top of a large cart and he was rolling me along.

I fumblled and dropped a neon tube and it exploded. I looked around and didn’t see the janitor, He was hiding under the cart.

The was my first experience with someone with PTSD. In those days it was called shell shock.

If your hero is a murderer you need serious help

You’re the one who needs help! One hit him over the head with a skateboard, the other one tried to grab his gun and the “ Witness”for the Prosecution admitted he aimed his gun at Kyle first!
This happened on the THIRD night of rioting Why wasn’t it stopped? You’re a MORON

And none of this would have happened if he hadn't left his home state with an illegally acquired rifle and went looking for someone to shoot.

Thank You for proving you’re a MORON. The gun was NOT illegal . He went there primarily to help protect a friends garage. His friend HAD three Garages and those SAVAGES destroyed two of them. He was cleaning up Graffiti. Where were the Cops? This was the third night. Why no condemnation from the PROSECUTION Witness who ADMITTED he aimed his gun at Kyle first?
Because you’re such a MORON, I don’t expect a response.

Don't bother their empty little heads with facts. Doing so creates ripples in their already unstable emotional continua and then they cry.

You're zero for three again.

 

[LA RAM FAN]

He was guarding private property with a legally possessed firearm, when he was violently attacked.

He was fleeing for his life when he killed two violent attackers and wounded the third.

That's not my opinion, those are the facts as discovered in the trial.

You're all wet.

Idiot4all of course has never had an interest in facts Oddball

Did Kyle put himself back in the news?

The sunshine patriots are at it again, folks. In either another unreciprocated attempt to appear even-handed, or from a deep sense of shame at their own meekness, a number of conservatives are bleating that, while they support Kyle Rittenhouse's acquittal, they nonetheless take pains to emphasize that he is not a hero.

Tom Slater at Spiked writes that Rittenhouse should have stayed at home. John Kass of the Chicago Tribune also writes that Rittenhouse shouldn’t have been there, and that he’ll carry the “stain” of this forever. Tiana Lowe at the Washington Examiner writes that Rittenhouse’s victimization doesn’t automatically confer heroism, and that he “should never have gone to an active riot zone in defiance of a curfew.” Harvard Law professor Alan Dershowitz (who defended Jeffrey Epstein in court and who argues the age of consent for sex should be fifteen) likewise says Rittenhouse shouldn’t have come to Kenosha.

Former police chief Dan Llorens lets readers know six times that Rittenhouse is “no hero” and speculates that, as Rittenhouse grows older, “perhaps he will begin to understand.” Because nothing wins over a skeptical audience like belittling condescension. Yet, one wonders how the Kenosha police officers -- the ones actually there during the riots -- felt about the armed citizen patrols as they handed them bottled water and told them, “We appreciate you guys, we really do.” Perhaps Llorens could lecture these officers about their need to “begin to understand.”

To the aforementioned commentators, allow me a polite suggestion. Next time your country, city, or neighbor needs some fellow citizens willing to step up, take your own advice and stay home. There is some clear misunderstanding on your part as to the meaning of heroism. If being a hero means penning opinions from the safety of our computers,

I presume that this is controversial enough!

When Rittenhouse capitulated to Trump he physically collapsed and cried. See the video.

All these idiots saying he “shouldn’t had been there”.

No, the rioters that were imported in didn’t belong there. Half of them had illegal weapons too. The Democrat mayor and governor allowed BLM to terrorize the city, they ordered the police back, they refused to send in national guard.

The only thing that keeps us a civilized society is the rule of law, back up with honorable men with guns.

They had gone home by dark because of the curfew. Nobody was on the street except Proud Boys, Bugaboo Bois, Oathkeepers, Qanon, cops, vandals and a few punk vigilantes.

You are wrong again. Try stating facts instead of falsehoods.

That's correct. The demonstrators obeyed the curfew every evening. There was nobody on the street except vandals , trouble makers, cops and Kyle Rittenhouse with his gun. By now you must know how pitifully stupid the boy is ..

I live in Wisconsin and you are wrong about this incident. Try and educate yourself before making more false claims.

If your hero is a murderer you need serious help

He did not murder anyone

Why weren't you running around Kenosha after dark with your gun and breaking curfew?

 

[Soupnazi630]

They twisted the definition of self defense to let him walk, he still.murdered those guys

Liar

It was not murder and no one twisted anything the evidence is crushing it was straight and honest self defense
