Grosskreutz said he worked as a paramedic before going back to college in Wisconsin where currently he is studying. Grosskreutz said he has attended many peaceful protests in Milwaukee -- which has seen more than 100 days of protests -- against police brutality and racial injustice.

But the night he encountered Rittenhouse changed his life, Grosskreutz said.

"I was shot point blank with a .223 round from the shooter," Grosskreutz said. "And I am now missing 90% of my bicep. This has not been easy emotionally, physically. I'm in constant pain, like excruciating pain that just doesn't go away -- both in my arm, in my heart."

“I’m in constant pain, like excruciating pain that just doesn’t go away”

Finally some good news on an otherwise gloomy day.

[STJPII]

Is it just me or does he look drugged out. His eyes are look murky

"And I am now missing 90% of my bicep. This has not been easy emotionally, physically. I'm in constant pain, like excruciating pain that just doesn't go away -- both in my arm, in my heart."

"I think about everything all the time," Grosskreutz said.

Try thinking about one or two things at a time - less confusing. And stop thinking about Marxism and shooting your pistol at people you don't like.

[Spirochete]

Maybe he'll find Jesus and repent. Maybe someone will turn his worthless ass into a skidmark.

Either one works for me.

CNN lied from the very beginning. This guy isn’t the “only” survivor”. Rittenhouse is a survivor of their attempts to kill him.

He is going to have a hard time swinging that gun around anymore. I am a retired nurse and I know of no case where the doctors did not do all they could to help a patient from being “in constant pain, like excruciating pain that just doesn’t go away.” Pain management is a very high priority when treating patients.

[Tommy Revolts]

Yes. Kyle disarmed him.

He now goes by the name of "Lefty".

[skimbell]

See, that's the problem with 223.

If Rittenhouse had used an AR-10 he wouldn't have left a sloppy 10% of the arm laying around.

I’ve watched the video several times

It never gets old, does it?

This domestic terrorist needs to be arrested and charge with the multiple crimes he committed included at least one count of murder under Felony Murder Law.
He needs to pay the legal fees for the teenager who had to defend himself.
He's also lucky that he's not dead like his two co-conspirators and if he has any complaint about his arm, he can go join them.

I suspect he's giving interviews in a desperate attempt to bring in money to pay for his surgeries.

Yet he hasn’t been charged, and from the article:

‘Grosskreutz said he has had run-ins with police in his past and paid his debt. But he says he had every right to carry his firearm.
“I’m not a felon,” he said. “I have my concealed carry, I’ve had it for years. That was my gun. My firearm. I had a legal right to possess it and to possess it concealed.”’

So what’s the real story here?

Felon in possession of a firearm. Someone in Wisconsin needs to go to the AG and make sure charges are filed.

The "felon" says differently.

Grosskreutz said he has had run-ins with police in his past and paid his debt. But he says he had every right to carry his firearm.

"I'm not a felon," he said. "I have my concealed carry, I've had it for years. That was my gun. My firearm. I had a legal right to possess it and to possess it concealed."

[Aevery_Freeman]

Ba-Da-Boom!

[Delta 21]

Witnesses at the scene say he said he was trying to kill him specifically.

“Sole survivor”

Really..l

[DoughtyOne]

I mean, I was out there a convicted felon with a concealed
weapon minding my own business, with it pointed in some
guys face, and he shot me. How unfair is that!!!!

When is he going back to prison?

"He is part of the People’s Revolution Movement, a social justice group based in Milwaukee, and attended the demonstration with the group." as a para-medic for BLM, there are consequences for law breakers......
