Maybe I’m overly critical.

I’ll put up my mom as a critique. She was better under anyone’s analysis.
To be fair, everyone on this board can be 'overly critical'.

I don't live in that area.

I believe for all intents and purposes she was an average mom as any in the area. Her son attended all the good ol' boy local stuff, junior fireman and medic cadet stuff. Hunting with friends, range.
I doubt she really thought a violent mob would be rampaging so close to home.

I was never in a position where my neighbors were confronted with a riot bent on burning things down. There was a call to come defend. He joined.

If it wasn't for this he'd prolly go on living a normal small town good ol'boy life, screaming at libs on the TV and downing some bud.


My mom was also average by today's standards. But I joined the army and put myself in harms way. Does that make her a bad mom?

You said she didn’t have the money. I replied she can get it for free.
How did I misinterpret.

He should’ve never been there. Period. A good parent would’ve made it so.



You can replace liberal with conservative and you’d have the same thing; a nothing burger of a response. Congrats.
The police should have been there.. get to the root! Kyle was there to be a good Samaritan to help anyone who needed it. Kyle wanted to put out the fires. The mob of immoral characters wanted the fires to burn down buildings and hurt people.

I would never allow or support a child of mine to join a terror group like Antifa or BLM.

How about joining the "mostly" peaceful protests, as buildings are burning in the background, said a reporter?

No need to split hairs.....

I don't believe the Good Samaritan was carrying an AR-15. Or even a club.

(and fwiw, even though I don't care for her elitist attitude, or her husband, I think she looked as good thin as she did when she'd gotten pluffy)

I have loosely followed his behavior and media presence since the initial arrest. I would be very disappointed if he were my son. She is proud. I don’t get it. He acted awful in the past year.
Would your mother have been proud if it were you?

I have no idea what you're talking about.

I'm talking about whether Rittenhouse was there in the role of "good samaritan". And the answer is, decidedly, no. The Good Samaritan was not a vigilante, but a selfless humble helper of an injured man.
