Shame it's come to this.

One thing I have to ask those who have shown support for Kyle and contempt for the rioters: Are you living in "solid majority" blue states, and if so, why? I'm talking Minnesota, Illinois, Oregon, New York, California, etc.. Why are you paying taxes to local governments you do not support, and probably loathe, who work against your own interests? Wouldn't it make more sense to move to a state whose residents you deem more in line with your own ideologies, and would have less regret in supporting with your time, labor and resources? The only reason these places can exist is because people with resources live there. I say, take away those resources, if possible, by moving your businesses or taking your retirement assets elsewhere - especially targeted to those who live in large Blue cities like Chicago. St. Louis, and NYC - leave and let them compete to become the next Detroit. Small town America would love to have you back.
If so, he's not just a moron, but a corrupt, vile moron. No decent person would "overcharge" a child that was simply doing what he had to do to protect his own live from a wild, violent mob, just to humor and pander to that mob. No, I think he is even worse-he did so to pander for votes, and didn't give a crap if he threw an innocent child under the bus to do so. I'm hoping Kyle scores big in the inevitable malicious prosecution suit.

but hey, let's call for back up on a "young looking" person open-carry a rifle in an open carry state, while rioters burning and destroying properties all around you past 8pm curfew for 3 straight days
that is a problem and perhaps the root of the BLM ?

And? Guess what? It's a free country, you actually can cross state lines. Perhaps you should get out more.

Now, would you care to bet on rather the violent criminals that were rioting, looting, setting fires and attacking innocent people were all Wisconsin residents? Heck, how about the three felons attacking Rittenhouse that became leaky?

No just no. The kid was a terrorist walking down a street with a long gun. Yet because of systematic racism he wasn't paralyzed while an unarmed man was... Gimme a break.

Same exact story we've seen many times and will see again. Gun-toting wannabe mall cop Karen inserts himself in a situation he can't get out of, so he shoots people.

And it's self defense, of course, because he's absolved of every single thought and action he put into entering that encounter, while the people he kills have their arrest records paraded out and are judged on everything they've ever done So this idiot is a "hero" because he went random vigilante executioner as if the PD and courts failed by not previously sentencing these people to death.

The way you people spin these events is sick and twisted. This is some third-world mentality BS.

It was not his job to apprehend anyone. Call 911 and report it yes, apprehend no. He should have called 911 and had the police stop Kyle.

your chances of survival will increase greatly from an encounter with cops if you do what Kyle did


-hands up, palms out
-weapon sling with muzzle down
-and very very important DO NOT FIGHT OR RESIST cops with a karambit in your hand

That's incredibly foolish, I'm glad you didn't even attempt to substantiate your statement.

In your mind the kid being chased by the violent mob was a terrorist.... that's just brilliant.

Or he could just have stayed home and no one would have been killed.

Just an idea, since he accomplished absolutely nothing by his actions.
