I don't think it's good advice. Kyle was and is a hero. A streetcleaning hero.
He should run for mayor of Kenosha, then guvner, then president.

Binger is the one who belongs in prison.
With his last point the author seems to be challenging the notion that masculinity has an important place in polite society
We need a million such young men and I am proud of him for not staying home and watching tv.
The prosecutor made many mistakes in his weapon description (calling the AR-15 a “large caliber” weapon, for example, etc,) but I also remember hearing a few smaller mistakes on the defense side (that I can’t recall the specifics of at the moment.)
The last point is that citizens should do nothing - the only thing evil needs to win.
I agree, that was my whole takeaway... After watching Binger everyone now hates the prosecution from the beginning as a default. He sure did not do the state any favors in any case anywhere.
What an arrogant fool. Wonder if he still has a job?
Are there any stirrings, however slight, of Binger being prosecuted, or at least disbarred? He made so many “errors” that they can’t credibly be called errors - they were deliberate violations of rules or abject lies.
6. Stay Home, Be a Good Witness
Probably the most important lesson to be learned from Rittenhouse’s acquittal is that it never needed to happen. In much the same way that many folks are killed in their own front yards by going out to investigate strange noises instead of alerting the police,
***This guy’s advice is to NOT investigate strange noises in your own freeping front yard but instead call the police? What a gigantic crock of 🐂💩
Rittenhouse should never have been anywhere near Kenosha, Wisconsin, on August 25, 2020. He should never have agreed to help protect property.
***The kid is a hero. The adults who were at fault for being stupid were the owners of that car lot. With all those guys who were guarding that lot, he shoulda had them drive the cars off the lot to some neighborhood where there was no rioting. A lot less temptation when there’s no cars in the lot.
The adults in Rittenhouse’s life failed him by failing to keep him at home.
***I think the adults in this writer’s life failed him by not helping him generate a skill of detecting bull feces.
“sometimes you just have to take your beating” is what the prosecution claimed...
Good points in the article.
Probably good advice to give a 17-year old kid. But not so good to a 21-year old adult who sees it his duty to protect property, the livelihood, and likely the life of a friend whose business is being attacked by rioters and the police are ordered to stand down.
Though controversial, this is a correct statement. Rittenhouse’s life was valuable but the city of Kenosha - and the population that elects its leadership - is not.
Kenosha is not the hill for a conservative to die on.
In fact, the entire state of Wisconsin is worth less than two cents.
Granted, an argument can be made against this assertion on moral grounds. From a secular view, the state of Wisconsin under current conditions is not worth bug spit.
I do not want my federal tax dollars being sent there to prop up a third-world utopia; and I certainly would not want my grandson sent there to sort the terrorists from the liberal college students.

“Rittenhouse should never have been anywhere near Kenosha, Wisconsin, on August 25, 2020.”
Though controversial, this is a correct statement.
***There is nothing correct about it. The kid is a hero. He stepped forward when wusses stayed home.
Rittenhouse’s life was valuable but the city of Kenosha - and the population that elects its leadership - is not.
***Kenosha is in the USA. Every INCH of this land is worth defending.
Kenosha is not the hill for a conservative to die on.
***It was the hill for 2 deviant libtards to die on, and one more jerkwad libtard to luze the use of his arm.
In fact, the entire state of Wisconsin is worth less than two cents.
***It is in the USA so it is worth fighting for.
Granted, an argument can be made against this assertion on moral grounds.
***Then I promote such an argument.
From a secular view, the state of Wisconsin under current conditions is not worth bug spit.
***That there secular view will destroy America. “Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” ~John Adams
I do not want my federal tax dollars being sent there to prop up a third-world utopia;
***I see you are taking this ‘secular view’. Keep in mind that this website is “Pro-God” per the founder. https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1103363/posts
and I certainly would not want my grandson sent there
***Kyle was not ‘sent’. He volunteered. Your position seems to be upholding wimpiness as a virtue.
to sort the terrorists from the liberal college students.
***When the police withdraw, it will be almost all terrorists.
That is an interesting comment. It reminds me of President Kennedy's stirring words: We will go anywhere. Defend any friend. Oppose any foe. Pay any price.
Many American's bought into that. Until they realized their leadership did not believe that. It was just political rhetoric incorporated into a speech by a speech writer for a specific purpose on a specific day.
If you believe that rhetoric, it speaks well of you. I mean that.
But if you live in Wisconsin, you need to realize this: you are living deep behind enemy lines. Rittenhouse is lucky he wasn't sent to prison for life to protect someone else’s sheet metal.
If you openly get into the streets and oppose the police state and their auxiliaries, you may not be so lucky. The Karens there will bury you.
Exactly.
We all die in the end.
Life without risk is not life. It is death.
If you believe that rhetoric, it speaks well of you. I mean that.
***I do. And I also acknowledge the facts on the ground, that in many areas such as Kenosha Wisconsin, we patriots are outmaneuvered, for now. But God was with Kyle, God is with us, and God has an interest in our little political republic experiment.
If Tony ever finds himself and his neighborhood under overwhelming lethal assault by government sanctioned gangs of criminals released by Soros-bought prosecutors ... I'll be busy trimming my toenails.
