Glock guy is the one that attacked Kyle...and is now known as Unicep. Jump-kick guy is the guy that did a flying drop kick to Kyle's head while he was down on the ground. And of course there's sucker-punch guy. Pretty telling that all of these fine people that are rioting for BLM are all criminals.

My point, which I have to assume you agree with, is that the People often charge for offenses on which conviction is highly improbable.

Great NY Post column comparing similarities between the Goetz and Rittenhouse verdicts. Superb attention to climate of increasing crime during both periods.

It is wrong to use this to promote their news program and cause more division and keeping Rittenhouse in the spot light. Best thing would be for him to fade into the background and move away. Yes it is wrong for the GOP to hold him up as a hero.
About as wrong as it was for the left/ democrats to hold him up as a villain/" white supremicist"/domestic terrorist?

People aren't realizing that Kyle Rittenhouse is suffering from what is likely full-blown PTSD. According to his statements in the early release of snippets of the Tucker Carlson interview, he's tormented nightly in dreams of the night he went into the mob and all the incidents happened.

And then he spent a year under threat of life imprisonment.

Anyone who expects this boy - an 18 year old - to lead some kind of movement, or be a stellar figurehead, will be further damaging him.

He needs peace, and quiet, and help and support and not people chasing him around trying to seek him as a lead for their political cause. This is just a boy. And a very damaged one, at this point.

I agree, he hopefully will get some counseling, as my gun instructor told us, your life changes the moment you draw a gun even though you are protecting yourself.

That certainly seems to be what happened to him. This life changed that night, although he was enthusiastically participating in the protest event to hopefully provide security.

Hopefully this will be a lesson. If you carry a weapon that you actually have to use at some point, you will suffer anxiety from that. It won't go really smoothly.

So sad for him.

I can't agree more. He's just a kid who is now being exploited and taken advantage of for ratings. He needs to be left alone. No one seems to care about what he's going through

Hopefully a lesson to those who attack people as well, and to stay away from riots and mayhem. Kyle wasn’t wanting to do harm, but to protect. If the city government and governor weren’t so woke they would have had there police out in full force putting a stop to this.

He was a stupid kid who decided to be a vigilante anti. He may not have wanted to do harm but he did. Hopefully, he and others like him, who want to take matters into their own hands, learn from this hard lesson.
