Second video. Kyle turns around for a brief second when they get to the cars and doesn’t even miss a step really. Pedo had a head wound on the right side. That would be some split second shit right there. Kyle turns around for all of a second, shoots and hit’s pedo dead center in the side of his head? Could happen. “Good shootin boy.” Seems like the kid would have aimed for center body mass. The pedo wasn’t that short.
I think if everyone’s going to be citizen journalists, they need to buy a GoPro video camera. Small, self stabilizing, waterproof with much better resolution than a phone.
My Father was a corporal in the Army at17 in WWII in the Philipines. Sgt at 19.
Any thoughts on the numerous extra gunshots? I was wondering if those were intentional for the specific purpose of upping the stress to trigger a shooting. That seems in keeping with Antifa/communist/socialist tactics, and it could explain why there were so many other shots fired with no one else hit. Was GlockMan (now Lefty) there to make sure someone got shot?
Good news!
Yep.
I’m not sure about those other gunshots. As for “lefty” have you seen his criminal record? All three shot (2 killed) had criminal records. Big surprise.
You are correct. From what I saw it looked like a relatively small entrance wound like from a small-caliber pistol. Any .223 round hit him in the head and there would not be much head left. Its hard to do head shots with an AR at close range because the iron sights are high relative to the bore so unless you’re well-trained the bullet will hit several inches below the point of aim
I don't have experience with .223 and head shots, but I have seen several short range (under 5 yards) head shots on 200-300lb feral hogs with a .308. 180 grain Remington PSP in all cases. Always a head shot from the side approx. half way between eye and ear.
Before seeing it live I would have expected what you are speculating -- head split open like a melon. This is not what happens. There is a small entrance wound and no exit wound at all. The skull is fractured into many fragments, but they are held in place by the skin on the head and it looks like not much has happened.
Only when I would touch the head did it become obvious that while the skull fragments we're all in place, the whole thing was crunchy, easy to deform. Obviously the brain had been jellied and disrupted, but the outward appearance gave very little indication of this.
He was well and truly disarmed.

Replying to @LLinWood and @CaliKidJMP
Lin, There is also a case of estoppel here. Former AG Jim Doyle argued in a concealed carry case from the early 2000’s that people had a right to walk down city streets with a AR-15, as such, Wisconsin could ban concealed pistols. The WI DOJ is absolutely bound by that.
WI is going to have a lot of heartburn now that Lin Wood knows this.
Not a lawyer myself, but it looks like they can not say it was illegal for the kid to have an AR-15. I don't even think they can say it was "provocative".
This is the price they pay for being against concealed carry.
his name, at age 17, was flashed all over plus his picture...he was convicted in the public arena....he’ll get big money....
god I hope so, because he is a HERO and I hope he bankrupts the press who smeared his good name!
As a parent it is irresponsible to allow you child - and bear in mind under law he IS STILL A MINOR - to go into such a situation and allow them to do so while breaking firearms law. It’s a disaster waiting to happen. You can tell from the videos that some of the others who were armed to protect businesses were not happy with him being there due to his age.
He wasn’t protecting his home from rioters. He wasn’t protecting his family while they were out in town. He actively went out with a rifle while under the legal age to a different town than what he lived in (and across state lines).
I have ZERO problem when ADULTS (ie 18+ years old) go out armed to protect businesses and defend against these violent Communist insurgents - we need all the Patriots we can get. However we have not reached the point of where we should be sending in underaged minors to do the fighting for us.
I have family members were were in the military in WWI and WWII at similarly young ages - however while we may be in a fight (or even undeclared war) this certainly isn’t the Phillipines against the Imperial Japanese Army.
It's your neighbor's punk kid or even a relative that's going to destroy your business or burn your house down with you in it.
The guy stood up to protect.
He was clearly the victim.
Had this happened in Rittenhouse’s hometown, neighborhood or outside his home or even while he was out with his parents I might buy that argument - but that isn’t the case as I have pointed out. If his parents felt it was a fight worth fighting then they themselves should have stood post instead of sending thier kid out to do it. What would have been an otherwise justifiable self defense shooting will be torpedoed by any halfway capable prosecutor making the argument that none of this would have happened had he as a minor not been out after curfew across state lines illegally carrying the rifle.
FOX just showed a drone video of the shooting.
It removes all doubt and proves Kyle shot the munchkin.
We’ll agree to disagree.
You are still missing the main issue. Thanks for discussing.
