UPDATE On Man Shot By Kyle Rittenhouse: Friend Alleges In Facebook Comment That His ‘Only Regret Was Not Killing The Kid’

I wrote about Kyle Rittenhouse today and, in my opinion, how he appeared to be acting in self-defense when he shot three men in Kenosha, Wisconsin. […]

And here is me leaning to the left again. The kid SHOULD beat murder charges of any kind. Lesser charges will stick and if compounded, he'll be in jail for a very long time. Also the person who drove him across the state lines with semi automatic assault rifle should be charged as an accessory to everything (was that his mother doing?)

Now to the bad part, it's really much better outcome that he offed a couple of left wing domestic terrorists and not the alternative.

Doesn't look like he attended any school after 2017-2018 year. Short and chubby kid from a very low income single parent household with multiple siblings. Well you can get the idea how badly he was abused at a high school. He had access and was proficient with high powered firearms. All of the above fit the profile of perpetrators of mass shootings in the US

Don't believe for a second that he came to Kenosha to protect property. He came for action. The other side came as well. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

The entire footage of the incident has made its way on the internet; and the way I see it, he acted in self defence at least in one instance (a guy chased him with what looked like a weapon, and people were verbally spurring on the pursuer to attack him). Inflicting violence against the pursuer was putative self defence at the very least.

It's hard to tell from the footage alone how the situation unfolded pertaining to the other people that got hurt, but the shooter called 911 immediatedly afterwards. It has also emerged that he rendered first aid to injured looters earlier that night, so he hardly qualifies as a "white supremacist" or reckless vigilante.

Still, if I understood it right he was far from his family's property when the shots fell. Begs the question why he had to insert himself into that situation. My preliminary take is that he needlessly inserted himself into a scenario he was fundamentally ill-equipped to handle – and it seems to me for that he should be punished.

And the kid traveled to another city, not protecting his own property, not even property. He was as stupid as an antifa, just from the other side.



..... The 17-year-old had told journalists it was "his job" to guard buildings in Kenosha against protesters. ...

The lefties in my FB friends list are "appalled" by the young man who shot the three rioters.. None of them ever said anything with any comfort or sympathy when those same rioters have been exposed on video, with visual evidence of them beating up plain old citizens....

Do you mean "peaceful protesters"?

I does appear there is radicalisation going on on both sides but that's by design in my opinion . The Dems blame the republicans , the republicans blame the Dems and that echo chamber feeds down into American society via media /news networks which leads to the situations we are now seeing where everyone is blaming everyone else . You could say the kid is a victim of the system if anything else . Meantime both political parties continue to act in a despicable manner leaving large parts of the populace on edge economically and socially while they continue to tend to their donor class and themselves .

Photos of the suspect show him posing with weapons, practising target shooting and assembling an assault rifle. Under federal - as well as Illinois and Wisconsin state laws - no person under the age of 18 is allowed to own or open carry a gun. ....

Some really salient points made I have to say. The kid is 100% innocent by the way . The grown ups got this one wrong I'm afraid .

The kid was attacked, and simply responded, and in a professional manner: no unnecessary shooting, calling 911...

Difficult to point some wrong doing in his behavior during the incident.

Beyond that, there is something uncomfortable in a teenager not legally allowed to buy a beer travelling far from home to guard a property that is not his.

There is, but trying to get back to some higher ground, 'gangs' of people, armed, willing to attack other people?

We were generally outraged at the chechens in Marseilles, we dont seem to be so outraged that something similar happens in hometown USA.

This really sounds like mob rule, you can get beaten up for being on the street? for not raising your fist? For not taking the knee?

Curfew, round em all up, confiscate all weapons taken from them for 90 days, and do some stuff with the Police, as no matter how I squint, there does seem to be some form of issue with how black men are handled, versus white men. The issue clearly has many facets, but there is something there, and claiming its legal to shoot people walking away/holding a gun etc doesn't cover it all.

Yes.

The child walked into the protesting crowd with an Ar-15, so much from common sense. From here, the prosecutor simply says he provoked to be attacked.

That will be one of the arguements, but many other factors apply.

Crowd protesting about what?
It was rioting crowd violently attacking anyone standing in their way of property destruction. If the kid wasn't armed he highly likely would be maimed or killed.

Crowed protesting about what?

Did he wear a sheriff badge?(
Not?


Honorable court, I have no further requests.

there is about a half dozen different videos. someone synced them all together, multi screen, and one thing it shows, is that kyle did not fire all the shots heard in the video. in fact it is clear that the first shots heard were NOT kyle shooting.

Best of all, everyone can interpret the whole case according to their own taste. He who wants to blame this guy (who was stupid) who wants the BLM protester who jumped on him (he was also stupid). Meanwhile, there are the police, who did not immediately arrest the guy, and in front of him they flirted with his group.
So beautiful case, just meanwhile people died.

I dont see it that way. I have, and see, plenty of evidence of this despicable behavior from the left.. where is your evidence that it is in equal measure from the right?
