Actually, its a great idea because it is representative of Kyle’s core beliefs. It removes any idea of depravity of heart— thus, intent to commit murder.

LMAO. We picked that song out of humor.

And you just confirmed you don’t know what you are talking about. Basement dwellers don’t risk bodily and legal harm for weaker folks that can’t defend themselves-—and that it how PBs started.

Well, for one thing, "PBs" try to accuse the right of being anti-Semitic.

In actually, the PBs have beliefs on Jews that are basically what the far left believes.

What does an “apparent Proud Boys sympathizer” look like?

Optics. If this goes to a jury, optics are 90% of the case. Juries don’t understand the law and don’t particularly care.

He’s not guilty of any violent crimes since he was acting in self defense. He has a great case for self defense. What any decent lawyer (heck, any first year law student) should be pounding into this kid’s head is that he needs to lay low, stay out of sight, stay away from the media, and stay out of trouble.

You portray him to the jury as a good kid trying to do the right thing who got caught in a terrible life-threatening situation. It’s an easy win. Any single men on that jury vote not guilty. Moms on that jury vote not guilty. Some dads as well. Find me a jury anywhere outside of San Francisco that has no moms, no dads, and no single straight men on it.

Get caught out partying it up at bars and associating with controversial figures and you risk the jury turning on you. It isn’t about him doing something wrong. It’s about the members of a jury SEEING it as wrong. His life is in their hands. He needs to be smarter than this.

the Proud Boys are FINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Until our side stops being pussified cowards who get lead around by the left then all is gone.

look at you weak asses in this thread “oh NOES!!!!!!!”

If you're weak, that's okay. However, to continually posture and critique others who do have the guts to get in the left's face, is sickening. Some on this site might as well go run for a GOP-E seat somewhere as much as they capitulate and run to comment on how wrong someone is for something they did to get the left mad. GOD FORBID!!!

I don’t care about the left.

I care about Kyle Rittenhouse’s jury. His life is in their hands. If you care about Kyle Rittenhouse one bit, you should also be concerned about his jury.

The Proud Boys leader is Hispanic.. They have gay members in their group.
The Lying, Cheating, Thieving Leftist Lawyers and Media are Worse than Hyenas.
Evil beings like them will never leave good people alone. Prayers for Kyle and the Good Boys.

I don't have any issue with the proud boys - so sorry about your flourishing roids.

My issue is Rittenhouse, like Zimmerman, lacks judgement and makes himself look like a dumbass.

Completely agree.

And in Kyle’s case, his actions could easily flip a jury against him. He needs to stay out of sight and stay out of trouble. No parties, no press, no interviews, no anything. Sit at home, eat healthy, get some fresh air in the back yard, and finish the trial with a not guilty verdict.

Or go out and party and maybe spend the rest of his life behind bars. So stupid.

He needs to be smarter than this.

If he was smarter than this, he wouldn't have been in this situation in the first place.

And yes, I 100% agree that he was acting in legal self defense. Idiots who take pointless risks still have the right to defend themselves.

Honestly? I think that’s a fair assessment. I was always told growing up “don’t go looking for trouble, because people who do usually end up finding it.”

The head of the Proud Boys is Enrico Tarrio. The darkest looking White supremacist I’ve ever seen.

I think it’s an extreme version of the Rule of Stupids: Don’t go to stupid places with stupid people at stupid times to do stupid things.

As well-intentioned as I really believe Rittenhouse was, traveling to Kenosha to walk the city streets after a curfew during a riot while openly carrying a rifle rather flagrantly violated each element of the Rule, regardless of any good deeds he did while there.
