By Tuesday night, armed groups of volunteers, who could be defined as militia or perhaps vigilantes, had congregated in Kenosha with a mission to protect those businesses surviving the first two nights of violence. One of them appeared to be a libertarian group whose message to the Antifa and Black Lives Matter “mostly peaceful” rioters was that if they wanted to torch government buildings or fight the police, they were indifferent; looting and burning private property, however, was not acceptable.
Included in that group was a 17-year-old from Antioch, Illinois, just on the other side of the border named Kyle Rittenhouse, who reports say is the son of a local policeman. Earlier Tuesday Rittenhouse had joined volunteers in washing graffiti off the outer walls of the main building at a high school in Kenosha. How he ended up holding a long gun with much older adults in that militia group Tuesday night is unclear.
It’s also unclear how Rittenhouse got separated from the group. What is known is as the group massed to defend a gas station from a gaggle of Antifa/BLM types who grew increasingly hostile, elements of the Antifa side made their way to a nearby car lot where they attempted to set vehicles aflame and took baseball bats to windshields in an attempt at wholesale destruction of private property.
Not long after that, as visible from video collected at the scene, Rittenhouse was being chased by an individual, described as a 36-year-old from Kenosha, who threw something at him. Reports had it the object was a Molotov cocktail; if that’s true, it either wasn’t lit or didn’t ignite. Rittenhouse turned and shot the individual, who collapsed to the ground with a bullet to the head and expired shortly thereafter.

The terrorist antifa haven’t been stopped...WHY? Antfia is a gang not unlike any-other criminal enterprise, the same with BLM. Start posting their pictures, find out who their parents are, where they live, where they go to college, where they work....it is time these people are fully exposed...they live in the greatest Nation in the world, enjoy its fruits and protection...Lets demand the removal of that protection NOW!
The guy begged for it, he got it...Doh!
The guy shot in the head was earlier telling Kyle, “Shoot me nigger, shoot me.” Then he was emboldened because Kyle wouldn’t be baited and decided to try to visit violence upon him....reaping his just rewards now and trying to figure out what St. Peter meant by, “We know you - go to Hell”.
Thank you PGalt for posting the picture and info...that’s a start in exposing these criminals....
“Rittenhouse turned and shot the individual, who collapsed to the ground with a bullet to the head and expired shortly thereafter.”
the now expired convicted sex offender preferred pronouns are “was” and “were”...
PDJT needs to inject a new meme today about “rabid protesters” since “rioters” is not PC, and remind people of what the Leftist said a few days ago about putting Old Yellar down, of course the Leftist was projecting as usual.
I read that one of the dead guys had a conviction for sex with an underage girl and the other had multiple domestic violence convictions. The wounded guy had a record also and should not have had a firearm. Professional rioters are not exactly the best people among us and the world is a better place without those two. Too bad lefty is going to make it.
I’ve even heard the head shot victim was not shot by him. It’s a pistol wound. At least that is what I’m hearing.>>
I also wondered how a rifle (ar 15) with possibly nato round would not blow a large hole in a head on exit especially at close range. There are also several gunshot sounds seeming from between the cars where the guy was dying,

You’re right of course.
People who have spent their lives building and maintaining assets and property are not about to let it get burned to the ground by a bunch of evil drones.
Rioters will be shot if the worthless ‘leadership’ doesn’t act or deliberately fails to act.

Sad...
Unfortunately, this incident doesn't really fit that narrative, a single obviously scared underage teen defending himself while being chased down and beaten by an angry mob doesn't really generate much sympathy for the mob.

There was a photo earlier posted on FR indicating where the kid was at and the dead guy was. In that photo someone circle in red a pistol flash.
I need to find that photo now, that would show who the real shooter is for the headshot.
I believe he turned himself in to the police and they let him go home.
