'I walked away with my life that night': Wounded Kenosha medic Gaige Grosskreutz tells his story
The Milwaukee Journal ^ | September 11, 2020 | Gina Barton

Posted on 09/17/2020 9:14:23 AM PDT by PBRCat

Grosskreutz was among three people shot on the third night of protests after Kenosha police shot a Black man, Jacob Blake, seven times in the back.

The two other victims of the Aug. 25 triple shooting, Joseph Rosenbaum and Anthony Huber, did not survive.

The shooter, Kyle Rittenhouse, 17, of Antioch, Ill, considered himself a citizen soldier. That evening, armed with an AR-15, he told several people he had traveled to Kenosha to help protect life and property. Rittenhouse has been charged with five felonies including first-degree intentional homicide. His lead attorney, John M. Pierce of the law firm Pierce Bainbridge, plans to argue self-defense.

Because of the pending criminal charges against Rittenhouse, Grosskreutz's attorney, Kimberly Motley, has advised him not to discuss what happened the moments immediately before he was shot. On videos, Rittenhouse can be seen falling as he is chased down Sheridan Drive. Grosskreutz approaches, comes to a stop after Rittenhouse shoots Huber, then takes a few more steps before being shot in the arm at close range.

Grosskreutz sees the demonstrations against police brutality as a first step toward ending inequality and bringing about the ideal of justice for all.

"I want to be there and help amplify my brothers' and sisters' voices," he told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel on Thursday.

This my own self created "PWND" gif. "PWND" is computer games player lingo for being "OWNDED" or totally defeated and humiliated by another player in a computer game, usually a war game.

Gaige Grosskreutz feeling the pain while still holding his pistol

As James Woods wrote...

"But, but, but he was just a”peaceful protestor” holding a cell phone"...

I understand. I have been crying ever since, regretting that it was his arm and not his head that was hit. In The State of Florida and the State of Alabama a convicted felon is not allowed to possess a firearm. I suppose it is different in Wisconsin.

Good advice, telling the world he was aiming a gun at Rittenhouse and Rittenhouse shot him for fear of his life would not be good for him.
