They want to defund the cops, so what do they expect?

What hell do moslums and immigrants have to do with people taking arms in Wisconsin to protect life and property from communists? This entire article is full of shit. Rittenhouse wasn't involved in a scuffle, he was attacked by multiple grown men, some armed with guns. Leave it to the NY Slimes to get almost every fact wrong.

Oh I see. They want to “scuffle” us to death.

Keep shooting them. They hate it!

Yet the NYT, continuing its long Stalinist tradition, has no concern about the BLM and Antifa flash mobs that prompted Kenosha residents to take up arms.

“ Mr. Mathewson, 36, who sprinkles his sentences with “Jeez!” and describes himself as “chunky,” does not fit the typical profile of a rifle-toting watchdog, ”

Ha ha he sounds pretty typical to me. God love him.

The Kyle Rittenhouse incident took place on a Tuesday. I never see it reported that the previous night, Monday, BLM/Antifa rioters tried to invade some Kenosha residential neighborhoods and were met by armed homeowners, who fired on the rioters, who in turn got back into their cars and left. Blue collar Wisconsin is not Madison or Milwaukee, and is not to be trifled with.

Good to know vigilantes are here to defend a commie take over of our country. If a civil war ensued its worth the effort

that is why we have the Second Amendment.

What's left of it.

So this wasn’t an organization, it was just an idea.

Calling out the militia is a time honored tradition.

Citizens defending their property are now “armed-vigilantes”. If that were really true, there would be a lot more casualties. It’s not like it would be difficult to find a target if that’s all you wanted to do.
