The Rittenhouse case is yet another example out of endless examples of how out of control the fake news media is in this country. They do nothing else but try to enrage people by printing, broadcasting utter BS then they revel in the riots and trouble they cause. I really hope Rittenhouse sues their asses off and bankrupts these bastards

He acted pure military on that night. He should be proud. Although killing another man has to be tough to deal with. But if they are scumbags, it probably makes it more tolerable.

Kyle Rittenhouse is not a hero for his actions on the night of August 25, 2020. Those events are a tragedy all around. The taking of human life, even when done in self-defense and against a less-than-stellar citizen, should never be treated lightly.

Bullshit. I couldn't disagree more.

Rittenhouse is a hero for eliminating a child rapist and a career criminal plus he half disarmed another thug {for life}.

There were major downsides to that night:

1)The head kicker got away clean.

2) The cop that refused Rittenhouse protection still has his job.

The prosecutor should be disbarred, but he may get some pay over time...hope springs eternal.

Of course Biden did. Biden is the guy who publicly said 'he drank his lunch' about the man who was driving the truck that killed Biden's wife and child. Biden knew that wasn't true, but he smeared him anyway - because it was a 'better story'. To do that is beyond disgusting and entirely without ethics.

Very accurate column. Sums up several ideas very well.
As a sidebar, a major reason the people-of-the-lie hated Trump was that he proved the Founders got the Constitution right. Trump proved that a capable man or woman could be the executive director of the United States through the self-discipline of standing strong in the rule of law. And the demonic people-of-the-lie HATE that.

Well written, here’s the meat of the article, to me anyway.

“ Kyle Rittenhouse rose to the occasion. By his words, and not his bullets, he has acted in a manner that befit his high adolescent aspirations. His refusal to be crushed by the great weight of societal loathing is an act of heroism greater than any he might have imagined when he set out to guard property in Kenosha, and those who view the case along narrow Second Amendment terms are not giving the young man his proper due.”

BRAVO.

Kyle conducted himself admirably during the whole thing and most especially when testifying for himself.

Given the current pro-victim culture in the US along with the openly anti-Conservative atmosphere of his trial, his decision to take the stand was very courageous. I don’t recall any adults who have done as well for themselves when testifying in open court.

BRAVO, Kyle!! God bless you.

I think Kyle Rittenhouse is a hero all the way around, for what he did that night as well as his phenomenal performance on the witness stand. He will have to deal with the fact that he was forced to take human life for the rest of his life, and for that he needs our prayers. the communists will also continue to attack him for some time.

To me, the real lesson of the Rittenhouse trial is the failure of Leftist political leaders to protect the innocent. The first failure was allowing mobs to riot and burn the cities. Had the mayor of Kenosha and the governor of Wisconsin stopped this, it wouldn’t even have been necessary for Rittenhouse to be there, at all.

Isn’t it quite astonishing that all four of Rittenhouse’s attackers were violent felons? They were not only allowed to be there, they were certainly encouraged to be there by the actions and inactions of their political leaders.

Another failure was the cowardice and corruption of the local prosecutors. Their cowardice was in ignoring the facts of the case and allowing the mobs to rule. Their corruption was in their violation of rules and even laws in withholding the facts in the case. They, themselves, must be prosecuted.

There are so-called ‘news’ anchors now saying that had Rittenhouse been black, he never would have been acquitted. They are right. Had he been black, he would never had been charged in the first place.

Yes, but since when did ethical behavior become a prerequisite for being an attorney?

Taking out the two pieces of garbage was heroic.
Too bad the other third piece of garbage survived.
There should have been ten thousand Kyle Rittenhouses in Kenosha. Doing the job crooked dirty cops and insane DemocRat politicians wouldn’t do.
