"My side" isn't the one burning buildings. I have been quit clear that I do not support the looters, they are a totally different group than the peaceful protests. How you still can't draw that distinction between those 2 groups is simply amazing to me. Here is my position again. Read it, slowly this time:

I support the original message of BLM. I have many friends who attended peaceful protests. NONE of them threw a rock or set a fire.

After they left a group of punks show up to cause damage and destroy the message of the first group.

THEY ARE 2 DIFFERENT GROUPS OF PEOPLE.
BLM isthe group burning down buildings, looting, and causing destruction. Several leaders of BLM have admitted it and are actively encouraging it. It is no longer possible to deny it. The DNC is both supporting and being supported by BLM. You can say that you personally don’t condone the violence as much as you like, but if you are planning to vote Democrat then you are planning to vote for the party that does condone the violence.

Here is my position so that you understand: BLM is a terrorist organization that should be slapped down by every elected official with every bit of force that they have access to. I don’t care whether the 17 year old “should” have been there or not, because he was not the aggressor. All available evidence shows that he was attacked by a violent mob that also should not have been there and defended himself.

The BLM message was originally a good one, but the organization itself is at this point nothing but a bunch of overgrown adolescents throwing a tremendous tantrum.

It's already been stated that he'd gotten the weapon in Kenosha, though we don't know for a fact who gave it to him.


He wasn't a protester. He was there as a medic first, and then to help protect property.


Why were the three there , who were shot? They didn't appear to be protesters. Two were not from Kenosha.

Why did short angry bald guy want to be shot? Since he was screaming at others to shoot him and he attacked a person with a gun. Suicide maybe, and he didn't have the guts to do it himself.

Why did short angry bald guy attack Kyle?

Why did short angry bald guy feel the need to hide his face from cameras while he attacked Kyle?

What was he planning to do to Kyle that he didn't want to be recognized?

Why would anyone take the word of a guy who just killed someone and if running from the scene? But like I said earlier, he was live streaming when he got shot.

Do you not even know what you'd said in your posts? No, you had the third guy live streaming at two different times and locations.

You claimed the third guy as running next to him and live streaming right after the first guy was shot and before the second guy was shot. Please post that particular live stream.
You then come back and say the third guy was live streaming when he got shot, which is true.

1) He worked there, as a lifeguard, and had work that day
2) After work he spent time cleaning graffiti the mob of morons had left the previous night
3) He was there at the request of a business owner to help deter violence and destruction of the owner's livelihood

Now let me ask you a question. Why were the rioters there? The child molesters? The wife beater? The arsonists? The looters? The mob of thugs attacking innocent people? The vicious scumbags that ganged up to assault an innocent child? What legitimate reason did any of them have to be there?

Nope. Just liberals.

I can't vote in your poll. You didn't give me an option.

My poll choice will be "Innocent of the charge but will be found guilty of it anyway".

They will make it their mission on earth to convict him to fit their narrative and insure against a new round of riots, in Kenosha and elsewhere.

Kyle is screwed. He is going to be rail roaded big time.

I mean, if the entire FBI could be brought to bear against a sitting US president for the purpose of a soft coup, what chance does one kid have against the criminal justice system.

He is screwed, blued, and tatooed.

Even a halfway intelligent and informed person on the left would have to admit it was clearly self defense if they were capable of being honest about it.

Trump was acquitted in the Senate. Rittenhouse's fate will be decided by a jury of his peers. You got a problem with that?

He was watching over a business. My understanding is that it was the business he was already employed with. A lowlife scum was attempting an arson in close proximity to that business (if I understood correctly, it was a gas station) and he grabbed a fire extinguisher and put out the fire. Said lowlife scum then attacked him, and, after he attempted to flee from his attacker, someone fired a shot and the lowlife scum threw something at him.

The shot and the object thrown may have been coincidental to each other, but it apparently caused him to turn and fire at the lowlife scum. Due to either luck or marksmanship, the shot killed the lowlife scum, whereupon three other lowlife scum attacked him. He again attempted to flee his attackers, one of whom was armed with a handgun. They caught him and were proceeding to beat him (using a skateboard as a weapon), so he fired more shots, killing the one with the skateboard and wounded the guy with the gun.

If any of the reasonable people on the right think I got any facts out of order, they are welcome to correct me. If any of the delusional demoncrat lowlife scum who mindlessly spew disinformation want to correct me, they can p--- up a rope.

THEY ARE 2 DIFFERENT GROUPS OF PEOPLE.
They are two arms of the same organisation.
Your friend is supporting a terrorist organization, whether he knows it or not.
If he does not know it, he is among the deceived.
