America on the Verge
The American Mind ^ | 11/20/21 | Martyr Made

Posted on 11/23/2021 12:53:39 PM PST by PoliticallyShort

Kenosha police reported that over half of all the people arrested in the first two nights of violence last year had come from out of town. This was not an uprising of the Kenosha underclass against the system that was oppressing them. This was an organized attack on an American city. The refrain of centrists-at-all-costs and weak-kneed Republicans has been that, innocent or not, Kyle Rittenhouse “should not have been there.” Indeed, 17-year-old boys should not have to take up arms to defend their communities from attacks incited by Democratic Party politicians and the corporate media and facilitated and carried out by organizations funded by multinational corporations.

America still stands on the precipice of a dark abyss. The fact is, we live in a society where mass political violence has been normalized, and because it’s being used as a political and ideological bludgeon to threaten and intimidate the people of this country, the authorities have abdicated their responsibility to protect life and property. The people who have created these conditions are the same baying for the blood of Kyle Rittenhouse for defending himself from three of their own. But this is still America, and it is the people—not the media, not the politicians, not the celebrities or bureaucrats or activists, but only a jury of Kyle Rittenhouse’s peers—who render final judgment on the righteousness of his actions.

"Kenosha police reported that over half of all the people arrested in the first two nights of violence last year had come from out of town."

And no doubt many from out-of-state. But that was never an issue for the left when it was their own people doing it.

Rioters swarmed from all over the region, even crossing state lines, to contribute to the chaos. A group called Riot Kitchen came in buses and minivans all the way from Seattle to provide food, drinks, helmets, fireworks, gasoline, and other supplies to the rioters. The group was founded for this purpose during the summer 2020 riots, raising almost $60,000 on GoFundMe. GoFundMe later banned fundraising for Rittenhouse’s legal defense, though they permitted fundraisers by the rioters descending on Kenosha. GoFundMe itself actually contributed $500 to Riot Kitchen through its “Gives Back” program.

These facts have been memory holed...for a reason.

Cell phones make organized crime and violent protest a walk in the park.

Cell phones are easy for the Government to track. And the location records are available for weeks after an incident, so the agents can track the participants after-the-fact.

They did exactly that to identify the January 6 protestors.

But they don't go after ANTIFA or BLM. That's because the Government indirectly sponsors those terrorist organizations. They treat them as allies.

I’m sure there was a lot of “crossing of state lines” going on, as well as the “crossing state lines with guns” going on. But, since they were rioters, they get a pass.

The dead and shot terrorist rioters should not have been there. But we don't hear this from the city "leaders" who encourage rioters to do whatever they want without punishment. A beatdown and killing of rioters messing with other people's stuff, is a good thing and should be encouraged.

And I "should not have had that second pepperoni pizza" last night.

So what?
