Kyle did not shoot a black person.

The Left is doing this. Of course Antifa and BLM are hard left water boys/girls for the Regime.

Glad his parents moved to Texas. I’m sure he has been treated pretty normal here.

The article did end with the truth:

“Rittenhouse was found not guilty of homicide or the other charges.”

When he comes to Memphis, he’ll be arriving in a majority-Black city that’s riddled with gun violence and dealing with the state’s loose gun laws ― laws that many of Rittenhouse's supporters would advocate for.

I lived in Corinth and the blacks in Memphis were some of the most prejudiced and desired whites dead almost universally. I served in the NG during the 1978 Fireman’s Riots and found the blacks to be some of the most dangerous and hateful people to be encountered. We had our Mid South Civil War shows the same weekend as the COGIC conventions and saw the same as you. If any enemy of the US were want to destroy Memphis they wouldn’t have to hit the city...all they would have to do is detonate a bomb nearby and the blacks in Memphis would destroy the city themselves.

That’s not what they were told 24/7 by the fake media.

I moved to rural NW Tennessee two years ago, and unfortunately wouldn't visit Memphis for any reason. I went to college at Christian Brothers in Memphis in the between '76 and '81, and have fond memories of the city. But, that was a different city.

Here in rural NW Tennessee race relations are just fine and dandy.

Clearest case of self defense I’ve ever heard of thanks to real-time video of almost everything that happened. Not a shadow of a doubt it was justified. 0% doubt, 100% justified.

Also one of the most amazing instances of performing under pressure captured on video that I can recall seeing and he was just 17.

The article says that but they conveniently leave out the fact that ALL of the "gun violence" committed in Memphis is done in violation of existing gun laws and almost all the people committing it are doing so while committing other crimes.

It is violence committed by criminals who do not and will not obey any laws.

What is amazing is that in the USSR, the media were threatened and coerced to be the Pravda. Here in the US, these bastards have voluntarily conspired to repeat the lies and propaganda.

Isn’t Tennessee mostly conservative? This article was written by a flipping libiot. Lotsa African-Americans are planning to vote for Trump. Are non-students able to hear Kyle speak? I was going to bet Rittenhouse gets a huge turnout, but I don’t know if southern state campuses are libioted.
