I saw the interview with him. He said he came from “the area”. Another Freeper from the area said 12 miles from Kenosha.
Correct.
12 miles
Funny you should say that. I also grew up in CA, albiet alot farther north, and I used to walk right through the sheriff station lot, back where they kept the patrol cars, with a shotgun over my shoulder on the way out to the fields beyond. All I would ever get was a friendly how did you do today? Or a hey seen alot over off this bend, might want to check it out.
Boy I miss the old days
My understanding is that he lives somewhere in between about 12 miles from Kenosha.
Yes, but in a whole different state which, according to a bunch of Freepers, is somehow significant.

Do not assume they will back down because you have a rifle.
Im definitely not opposed to people protecting themselves or others in the current situation, but Im wondering if they are really thinking it through. If you take a gun out there, you better be prepared to use it, and suffer the consequences.
I will donate to the kids defense. I would give him the Medal of Honor- two out of three aint bad.
Thanks. I did check it out. Looks like Antioch is less than a mile from the Wisconsin state line and about 10-12 miles from Kenosha, So he could say he was from the area.
I won’t call them lies but there’s a lot of falsehoods in what you posted.
He lived six miles away from the scene... in Illinois. Kenosha is right on the boarder.
Thought it was six miles?
Until people are willing to die for what they believe they they cannot remain bearers of freedom. Americans have been willing to do this.
Until recently there have been those who were willing to let us believe in anything, so far as we do not live consistently with it. Now those days are gone. We must bend the knee and declare our disgust with our Country.
After generations of “Cultural Revolution” against America Envisioned by Marx in 1827 and ordered by Lenin during the first meeting of the Communist International in 1927, our enemies believe us ripe fruit for the picking. The Soviet Union is gone but the “Cultural Revolution”of the Communist International lives on.
They are the Marxist BLM and Antifa which is the American version Of the German Red Guard and Bader-Meinhof Gang; trained in East Germany by the Stasi Secret Police to destabalize the Western Democracies. They still exist there and and are funded under other names by Left wing political parties in Germany today. They want a Single World government but America has stood in the way. Now they think we are weak of character and resolve and are young people dumbed-down, complient and unwilling to sacrifice.
We must old and young relearn the reasons why we love America and why is worth living for and if required worth dying for.
I guess hes from Antioch, IL, which would put it at 21 miles, give or take. Ive heard 12 and 6 miles as well.
Specifics?
Check out these postings. In comment section one has him belonging to Police Explorers in Illinois

This kid was not part of a local Kenosha “militia”.
He lived in Illinois.
17 year-olds have fought in all of our wars. This one did well. He only hit those who were directly attacking him. We need more of us out and about. We cannot remain just comfortable keyboard warriors.
He was a member of a hastily formed group of armed Kenosha residents united to aid the police and protect neighborhoods and businesses against the rioters.
I simply pointed out that he ISNT a Kenosha resident. When someone gets a basic, and verifiable, fact like this incorrect, I dont pay much attention to the rest.
