Man who had his arm partially blown off by Rittenhouse confesses to friend His only regret was 'hesitating to pull his gun' and 'not killing' 17-year-old

One man died after being shot in the head and a second man died after being shot in the chest. A third man was wounded after Rittenhouse blew part of his arm off with a rifle.

26-year-old Gaige Grosskreutz had his arm partially blown off after he aggressively rushed at 17-year-old Kyle Rittenhouse, who had just tripped and fallen while being chased by the BLM mob.

Grosskreutz had a gun in his hand when he ran up to Rittenhouse, so in self defense, the 17-year-old discharged his weapon, blew off part of Grosskreutz’s arm, saving his own life.

This first video shows Rittenhouse tripping and falling after being chased – he then fired his weapon at 3 different men who jumped on him.

“A prohibited felon with a handgun attempting to murder a child.”

IMO it is misleading and an appeal to emotion when someone calls a near adult a child. It may be technically accurate by most definitions, but I object to it. The left does this all the time but they are A$$HOLES. We should be better.

My reaction to this situation is to avoid Kenosha at all costs. It’s run by evil totalitarians. I pity the poor benighted peasants who still live there. It’s sad they don’t have the rights of American citizens, but they brought it on themselves.

Apparently that Antifa training didn’t include taking a round through the heart.

Put yourself in If you too had decided not to use your gun, and then had your arm half blown off, might you not tell people “I would have been justified in shooting him. He could have killed me. And if I had shot him, I would still have an arm.”

Every video shot that night shows plenty of the so-called “protesters” carrying arms of different kinds.

I tried to tell this to a leftist relative over the phone last night.

I said, “Did you see the videos-all those people with rifles?”

He replied, “CNN said those were all militia men!”

“Oh, you sure they’re not protesters? CNN actually said that? Or are you just making that assumption?”, I replied.

He got pissed and made and excuse to go and hung up.

I haven’t talked to this relative in awhile and I suppose it will be another long while before we talk again!

One of the best movies ever.

We are not allowed to practice with targets that look like people at the gun club that I belong to, but no one has ever said anything about images of skateboards.

May God Bless and Protect Kyle Rittenhouse. He is the Epitome of Goodness, Patriotism and Bravery.

Perhaps. But maybe that statement is clearly saying he waited too long to take a shot against a guy running for his life, I.e., commit murder.

“These thugs carry skateboards because people would only see a skateboard whereas thugs carry skateboards as offensive weapons that can do much harm.”

This. Skateboards are intended to be a deadly weapons when carried to riots.

Just like a baseball bat can be used as a deadly weapon. Just like a brick to the head can be deadly.

Wasn’t he a felon with a gun with intent to kill?

The Leftist socialist networking media is spinning overtime on Twitter and Facebook to say he was unarmed and that the 17 year old was illegally carrying etc...

I’ve already asked where are the deadly assault charges against his attackers?

Skateboard Ninja may have taken himself out. I think he grabbed the rifle and pulled on it, kid was on the trigger and the gun went off.

As for pistol Pete, he tried to fake the kid out and disarm him. Got himself ‘disarmed’ instead, heh.

All three of those idiots got shot while trying to take the rifle away from the kid.

Notice the media doesn’t run any “active news stories” during the riots.

Active shooter stories only serve an agenda about gun control and they do NOT want to draw attention to the deadly gunfire nightly at the “mostly peaceful” Biden rallies.
