The whole thing is nuts. There is no way an untrained 17-year-old kid should be in some other state guarding a business against a mob.
Rittenhouse’s friends evidently said “Hey, Kyle. Grab your rifle. We’re going to Kenosha and face off against a mob.”
Well, Rittenhouse’s friends are all home tonight. But Rittenhouse is in jail. And I suspect he will be there for many years. Rittenhouse was played. He is just a patsy. And that will cost him many years of his life.
The trained guys were hiding in their MRAPs. Of course they bravely tossed out some water.
