Excellent assessment.
Having a CCL myself, there is an awful lot to draw from your words. I am 50 yrs older than Kyle, and I do consider myself somewhat more mature. I’m not sure that I could emotionally handle myself any better than he is. I think, considering the circumstances, he did a great job of handling himself that night in Kenosha. The only reason he stayed alive was the training he obviously received. I hope he can get some competent counseling after the trial is over. PLUS, I’m afraid he better watch his back for a good, long time, whatever the outcome of the trial.

Shame he had to lose his cherry at that age. But he’s certainly been preceded by many in that loss of innocence. If this was 1942 he would have been lying about his age to get in and serve.

“From personal experience, I’d say that a the boy is suffering from PTSD.”

Yep. Poor kid. Doesn’t deserve to start life this way.

Same & ditto. I hope he gets counseling to get through this. This young man needs it.

I don’t have experience and I’d say, yeah!

He was a boy. An elder one, sure, but still very young.

Never mind killing anyone at all.

Actually, talking it out like that is probably good therapy. Rittenhouse got to face down his emotions and get through them, probably mostly defeating them. It's not dealing with these emotions that prolongs PTSD, in my opinion.

I think he was getting to that point in testimony where he realized he was hung out to dry by the very people he once looked up to. (Police)

That adds so much more additional weight to his burden of PTSD.

I survived a motorcycle crash and had nightmares for years. They still pop up sometimes. I can only imagine what he is going through.

If you’re not keeping up or did not see him testifying, then why would you ask such a question? Sorry, I just can’t see it!

Talking it out? Sure. Talking it out like that with potshots from a psycho? No.
