Defending himself while white = murder charges.

This is nothing more than malicious prosecution of a person who defended himself against three attackers. In a sane world charges would never have been filed, except against the one guy who lived, for attempted murder with a firearm.

It isn’t looking good for Kyle’s defense.

See here:

https://noqreport.com/2021/11/01/rittenhouse-defense-team-implodes-hours-before-jury-selection/

Mere hours before jury selection began in the self-defense trial of Kyle Rittenhouse in Kenosha, Wisconsin, a key defense attorney who put together a “dream team” of jury selection experts announced he was off the case. Robert Barnes says the change in the defense team means someone is “deliberately sabotaging Kyle’s defense.”

Self-defence therefore as it is justly called the primary law of nature, for it is not, neither can it be in fact, taken away be the law of society. In the English law particularly it is held an excuse for breaches of the peace, nay even for homicide

Violent rioting had been underway three nights before after police shot Jacob Blake multiple times as he tried to elude police after his partner reported him for breaking a domestic violence restraining order.

Well Wendy Rittenhouse needs to fix that. She’s the one paying the lawyers now that Lin Wood and his #fightback campaign is out of the picture.

I think Rittenhouse has an excellent chance of winning his case in Wisconsin, what I can’t understand is what is a 17 year old from Illinois with no FOID card doing going to another state with a firearm.
Where did he get it from, was it his dad’s, or an older brother’s? How did he come into possession of it, did he take it without permission?
Those are questions that matter here in Illinois. Wether or not he gets off in Wisconsin, I feel the State of Illinois might go after him on those issues.

I may have missed something, but after all this time I haven’t seen these questions answered in any media. Please correct me if I’m wrong.

None of the items you mention occurred in IL. So no crime occurred. Illinois can pound sand.

What I can't understand is why the residents of Illinois continue to put up with horse shit like FOID cards...

Too much lead in the drinking water?

Well, not much we can do about it, here in the peoples republic of Illinois. This is the de facto “registration list” that the state wants. Some years ago, the Attorney General, Lisa Madigan, whose father just so happened to be the head of the general assembly (can you say NEPOTISM?), wanted access to the FOID list of names of gun owners, and the Illinois State Police refused to give it to her. The ISP runs the FOID card and concealed carry programs, but the politicians will get their claws on the lists someday, I have no doubt.
Still doesn’t answer my questions on what the hell he was doing. I don’t doubt he was being patriotic, but I’m sure there were plenty of Wisconsin 2A supporters present in Kenosha on those nights. One rule of Concealed Carry we are taught is, at the first sign of trouble, if at all possible, get the hell outta there. The gun is the LAST resort. If I can leave the area safely without having a confrontation, so much the better.
My personal opinion is, the kid shouldn’t have gone looking for trouble.
You may think differently….

I believe the MSR was loaned to him by a Kenosha acquaintance that owned it legally.

Mr Rittenhouse should have a lawsuit against those who caused him the trauma of having to defend himself in the deadly effort to kill him!

So defending property from looters and rioters is "looking for trouble"?
