    Well, I remember Kyle Rittenhouse said he was going to Texas A&M to study. Well, that didn't happen. So, he wrote a book. Big effing so what. But I guess he will use alternative facts, even facts not presented at trial, to show his complete whiteness to the world. This is about as bad as OJ Simpson writing his book about the events that day. Think about that for a moment or two.

    Hunter wrote his book in 2018 or so, long before the events of this day. You cannot compare, can you boy.

    Victim blaming is generally not a good approach. He had a right to be there. He didn't break the law.

    I agree, eveyone claims to be a victim..

    gun nuts claim rittenmouse is the victim

    this could be a great movie title

    A VICTIM WITH A GUN!!

    on a different note...rittenmouse claimed he would destroy the weapon he used to kill 2 and injure 1

    is there video of the weapon being destroyed??

    Rittenhouse was the victim of multiple violent crimes. The people he shot were all shot engaging in violent crimes at the time they were shot. I'm not sure why you seem to disagree or why you think Rittenhouse carrying a firearm makes a difference. Did you follow the trial?

    The fact that he was only 17, sent into a known area of violence, alone, and most certainly untrained, without situational awareness, is more than enough.

    Sometimes basic facts get in the way of some people.

    He was an active shooter during a protest.
    He had a right to be engaged as well since he was brandishing a weapon..

    Did the 17 year old see the man rape another woman earlier in the night??

    I believe we'd have an active rapist situation

    again the title of rittenmouses's book should be

    "a victim with a gun"

    most people use a weapon to prevent being a victim

    in rittenmouses's case...he is exactly as described

    both of the below statements are true

    he was a stupid underaged punk that illegally had a gun and had no business playing army during a riot

    and he killed 2 and shot another and claims to be the victim

    Cool... book title time...

    I'd go with:

    "Don't bring a skateboard to a gunfight"

    I never understood how this killer became a hero to the right, just because he shot a few people the right doesn't like.
    He's as big a scum bag as the RW hero, the 2x impeached liar.

    That's some mighty fine hero's the RW has. Liars and killers.

    Bolded above is exactly why MAGA idolizes the kid.
    Throw in the fact he killed, makes him a bigger hero.

    a protest is not the place to walk around with an ar15 in hand, nor is a school, but who am I to decide

    Exactly.
    Every American kid should drop out of school, bring a gun to a protest and shoot and kill.
    The MAGA way.

    Or they could drop out of school and go to light fires at a riot and pretend they're protesting and then be stupid enough to chase down some young man with a rifle.

    The oatmeal stained way

    Correct, you don't get to decide.
    MAGA members get to decide.

    When someone points a gun at you and tries to beat you with a skateboard you are not a killer you are someone engaging in lawful self-defense

    I like this memorable part of the trial where the defense lawyer asked the guy that got shot in the arm.....

    Can you point to the man that shot you.... Of course he points at Kyle, then the defense lawyer asked him.... Isn't it true right before he shot you that you were pointing a gun at him?

    Case closed for anyone with any amount of logical ability to process common sense.

    Why he was there is completely irrelevant.
    You don't lose your right to self-defense because you might have made a choice that some consider questionable

    Yep, then hang out with White Nationalists and gun-loving extremists, while his trial is underway. Then crying crocodile tears in front of the jury, and later making bucks off MAGA, selling the book with his "story" of how he is the victim. Only in MAGA world.

    So he was supposed to sit there and allow himself to get shot and beat with a skateboard?

    Do you just not believe in the concept of self-defense?
