Five years ago, one of the most tyrannical smear and censorship campaigns in history was unleashed on a 17-year-old boy.

Rittenhouse.

The Left has been moaning about Emmett Till for about 70 years now. Young boy. Caught up in hateful events. Ended up dying. An American tragedy.

I think that Rittenhouse is the flip side of that. Young boy. Caught up in hateful events. Didn’t die. I think he should be celebrated as an American hero. And we should talk about our heroes more than we talk about victims.

His weapon control was and still is an amazing thing to watch.

To the side story, Gaige Grosskreutz, whose arm was severely injured while brandishing a handgun before Kyle Rittenhouse shot him ....

"Defense attorney Lori Ann Kuehn and Milwaukee County Assistant District Attorney Stephan Eduard Nolten cut a deal the morning of trial, which irritated Prediger. He was, after all, preparing to tell a jury of strangers that he was run over, resulting in the tearing in all of the ligaments in his neck, cracking of his teeth, breaking his shoulder, breaking half of his ribs, a broken wrist, collapsed lung, and lacerated liver."

Quite a little side story for someone who would have shot Rittenhouse, and claimed he was a hero.

"A rapist called Joseph Rosenbaum was released from a mental hospital and then went directly to join the mob that was burning downtown Kenosha. Once he got to the riot, Rosenbaum saw Kyle Rittenhouse and immediately threatened to kill him. Rosenbaum then chased Rittenhouse and tried to pull the gun from his hands. When he did that, Kyle Rittenhouse shot him. So Joseph Rosenbaum died as he had lived, trying to touch an unwilling minor." - Tucker Carlson

Karma. Sometimes it seems karma is more than just a theory.

Tucker Carlson. What a tragic train wreck of a public person. He was always a little squishy since he was not willing to look at the 2020 election results. It was maybe better for his career that he glossed over and then ignored the whole affair. But I don’t think I have ever liked him since. Maybe at times I have admired his ability to comprehend and communicate but he always put himself first. Now his pro-Moslem posture is making him less relevant than ever before.

Even the Lefty turd-judge Lynn Adelman [Addled-man] who allowed the uncivil suit against Rittenhouse to proceed, had to rule against the Lefty POS judge in Wisconsin when it came to her aiding illegals.

Interestingly, there's no mention of Rittenhouse on Adelman's Leftpedia Wikipedia page.

[T.B. Yoits]

Kyle Rittenhouse may be remembered in history as the individual who stopped the Democrat Socialist Riots of 2020 and performed a key role in saving the Republic from the Communists who colluded with the Uniparty to steal the election of 2020.

Moreover, Grosskreuz-aka-Prediger -- with ear stud -- was run over by an individual pictured in the article. A Thomas so completely "not" a Rittenhouse....

Luckily a jury saw through the BS. But sadly there’s a cop in jail in Minnesota because a guy with a bad heart decided to mix speed and fentanyl and then resist arrest.
