Yeah, I dont get that either. The dude was strangling the mom with his hands,..not a gun.

So many crimes are committed without a gun. Pushed into subways. Assaulted. All these mass Smash and grabs.

I hope we don't wind up wasting money to house the perp in prison.
That is what republicans were trying to do with Rittenhouse. Be careful what you wish for. You may find out that sword cuts both ways.

Rittenhouse isn't the first Cut though. Rittenhouse IS the 'both ways' other side of the sword equation of the Criminal coddling and lawlessness by weak leaders. Those were the people that weren't careful what they wished for.
