Illinois teen Kyle Rittenhouse charged in fatal shooting of two Kenosha protesters
A 17-year-old Illinois man has been charged in the shooting death of two protesters in Kenosha, Wisconsin, late Tuesday, according to a report.
Kyle Rittenhouse has been charged with first-degree intentional homicide, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reporter Molly Beck posted on Twitter Wednesday.
He was part of the group of armed men at the scene. We have been identifying them as a local militia group. Rittenhouse hails from Antioch, Illinois — about 12 miles away across state lines.

Agreed.
All — Was in a hurry when I read the article, and misread the “man” reference altogether. Today I seem to only be operating on 6 cylinders, not 8. I ask for your pardon.
My earlier comment does stand, however, when the breathless MSM refer to things like a 17-year-old thug beating up an old lady as a “man”.
America has been putting young men (kids really) his age on the front lines forever. He did what is needed in all the dem shitholes of rioting, burning, and murder by the domestic terrorists known as BLM/Antifa.
The Watts riots didn't end until the National Guard was deployed with shoot to kill orders for anyone looting. This is what needs to be done now in all these cities.
Then arrest all the DA's who dropped the charges against these criminal rioters and reinstate those charges.
This won't end until our side gets serious. The rioters know this and they know it being an election year so close to the election ties the hands of folks like Trump somewhat when the state governors don't do what they are required to do by law.
My one big hope is when the election crap is over and Trump is re-elected; the hammer comes down triple hard on everyone involved in these riots, looting, burning, vandalizing, etc. Like 10-20-life hard depending on the crime. Especially hard on those who are radical teachers caught doing this who radicalize the youth.
Wow. Great pictures.
Normally I would agree but this is not a normal time due to the belligerence of elected officials that have no desire of keeping the peace and favoring certain”controlled” chaos due to political pursuits.
Social Contract is null and void due to the actions/inactions of elected officials.
> He is too young to possess a FOID card. <
Good catch. I forgot about his age. At 17 he is also too young to open carry in Wisconsin.
>he has proven he is battle ready and popped his cherry already give him his butter bar and a platoon of hard chargers.
Gotta get the kid to do some push ups first lol
Yep..totally justified..but of course the commie media doesnt see it that way..they see their antifa loving BLM fascists as being totally justified in beating people with skateboards
> He drove up to Kenosha just to show off what a big boy he is.
How do you know what was in his mind?
How many of the “protesters” were from out of town? I’ll bet none of those shot were from Kenosha.
I presume you think the same thing about other young American men who serve in our Army, Marines, Navy, and Air Force. After all those "big boys" don't stay home and they sometimes end up shooting people who are trying to kill them.
Should the young men of America just stay home and avoid defending our nation?
...and may have family in that town living in fear.
If so, completely understandable to drive 12 miles to defend your family against violent rioting arsonists.
Give it 72 hours and more details will emerge
So should the rioters.
And we should congratulate George Floyd on three months sober.
Really tough guy? Have you been showing up armed at these “protests “? Or are you just a big talker?
Tell ‘em, Joe!
Self-defense does not have an age restriction.
The guilt is and should be put squarely on the authorities that allowed this to boil over. This should have been put to rest on day two after Floyd died.
That’s a VERY good question...
