Kyle Rittenhouse defense fund brings in more than $320k on Christian site after GoFundMe ban
Washington Times ^ | September 1, 2020 | Andrew Blake

A fundraiser for Mr. Rittenhouse hosted on the Christian crowdfunding site GiveSendGo had received more than 7,500 donations totaling over $320,000 of its $200,000 goal as of Tuesday afternoon.

Online fundraisers were made for the teen’s legal defense shortly after he was identified as the suspect, but they quickly vanished from fundraising platforms including GoFundMe.

GoFundMe said campaigns for Mr. Rittenhouse violated its terms of service but did not explain further. A campaign on rival service Fundly disappeared without explanation as well.

Well after this experience, he might become one.

Didn’t Jesus tell us to visit prisoners in Matthew 25? In a roundabout way.

Good thing you did not go to Gwinnett Public Schools.

Alvin Wilbanks has done a good job of indoctrinating students.

But, he does have over a $5,000 a day lunch per diem.

This is where his lawyers recommend donating. FightBack Scroll to the bottom to donate to Kyle's defense.

Everyone should take a look at that page. It's about a lot more than Kyle Rittenhouse's defense. It's for defending conservatives in general.

YHVH (God), creator of Kyle. Be with your son. Protect him. Bring justice to his case. You are able to provide perfect judgement. Amen.

I never read anywhere that he is Christian.

Christians are commanded to do good for everyone, Christians and non-Christians alike. And even their enemies.

But even without such a command, anyone of any faith should be able to see this guy is deserving of support and has been treated horribly by the Left.

The lawyer might not charge for HIS services, but filing fees-—office supplies-—clerks—Those still pile up

Does it matter? Is Christian charity reserved only for Christians?

This is a huge 2A issue.

If he is convicted then Self Defense is out the window in this nation.

GiveSendGo is a Christian crowdfunding site doesn’t mean they limit the use of their site to only “approved” Christians.

Lin Wood is a civil attorney, not a criminal defense attorney. He has lined up a high powered legal team for that and not all of they are free, nor are their employees free. Plus investigators, researchers, consultations with experts in use of force, self defense, ballistics, medical examiners, video and audio experts, travel and last but not least the gazillion copies of everything that have to be made.

And bail, don’t forget bail. That could be set at a million if the judge is an asshat.

Lin Wood was immediately unbanned. The ban went viral on Twitter.

He hasn't posted in 20 hours now.

@LLinWood

His twitter feed is still viewable and it is well worth reading to get firsthand information about him, the Fightback Foundation and Kyle Rittenhouse. Mr. Wood donated $50k himself to Kyle's defense fund for anyone who might wonder how serious he is.

Looks like GiveSendGo has been blocked again because their card processor has suspended them. The Leftists arre everywhere trying to stop fund raising.
