Kyle Rittenhouse, a 17-year-old suspected of fatally shooting at least two people and injuring another during protests in Kenosha over the shooting of Jacob Blake, has been arrested, according to local media reports.
Rittenhouse, 17, was arrested in Illinois and has been reportedly charged with first-degree intentional homicide.
Yeah. There seem to have been a whole lot of dynamics involved but, personally, I keep coming back to the idea that if he was there to defend the business then he never should have been down the block doing whatever he was doing.
Based on some of what I saw and heard last night it seems that there may have been a group that was intentionally agitating the “militia”. From the look of things this kid got himself separated from the herd and when the hyenas attacked he fought back.
I can certainly see a case for self defense but that’s only if he didn’t put himself in the position of needing to defend by getting into stuff he shouldn’t have been involved with in the first place.
“You guys...”
You mean conservatives?
This young man did what everyone has been screaming that should be done for months.
Now look what will happen to him. Which was sadly 100% predictable.
I don't know what we can do.
You protect property from mobs and looters and the authorities arrest you because they are the ones who are orchestrating the mobs and looters.
We are truly are Lenin's Kulaks.
thank you
First guy died in less than a few minutes - shot hit side of skull taking a piece with it
Defective. If there was a plan. How'd they lose a member. Even animals have and use rendezvous points.
I can make any damn comment I want, at any time. I’m just sick of your liberal bullshit. You’re making a fool of yourself
I could hardly make out what was happening from that crappy twitter video.
Though I did manage to see the Skater Dude falling to the ground dead after he had been shot.
and you’re an armchair pussy. I win.
LOL...
I mean the arm chair warriors on FR. The ones about law and order, but who readily dismiss this kids stupid decisions because he shot people.
Of course, if you point out why the kid was stupid, a low intelligence person automatically believes you support the rioters.
Its that kind of internet stupid that I find hilarious here. These losers who dont understand logic or discussion...and they wonder why they cant stay married.
What are you? 12?
Go home. I hear your momma calling you.
Looks to me like he got shot, too. Where'd the bullet go after hitting the guy in the arm. The "crazed" guy looks like he's in the path of that bullet.
Thinking this guy was Antifa or BLm
Skateboard dude pulled weapon trying to take it from young Kyle, and it went off and killed him. Looks like suicide.
Kyle saw gun in Paramedic’s hand and shot in self defense.
I wonder if the attackers thought the gun was unloaded?
his parents must be proud.
About 300 demonstrators defied the city’s 8pm curfew again this night of shootings. So anyone on the streets were already breaking state of emergency curview.
...Of course, if you point out why the kid was stupid, a low intelligence person automatically believes you support the rioters.

You seem to miss the point most are trying to make on the thread... the kid had, as we all do, the right to self defense. And he had and retained that right even if he made some ill-considered decisions. He handled himself correctly and he tried to retreat and tried to disengage... but the ANTIFAites would have none of that. You seem like the type that says a woman is partially guilty of her rape because of the clothes she was wearing. And THAT is sad.
OK, Im back to my wife to whom Im staying married.
