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.

I donated directly to a fund site set up by his lawyers. It had a donation general fund, or you could donate directly to Kyle’s defense.

Speaking of GoFundMe, how do they get away with discrimination? Is it like Facebook,Google and Twitter (hate speech means conservative or campaign for Trump so flushed?).

Didn’t they ban Gen. Flynn, too.?

Is there a way we can hurt GoFundMe? Legally if nothing else works. Just kidding.

"I never read anywhere that he is Christian."

Then don't donate.

******************************

His actions and words would lead one to think he very possibly could be a Christian.

Just like other people’s words could lead one to think they are far from being a Christian.
