We are better than the "other" rioters. Let them kill each other off. Why put your hands in poop? You like poop?Just like the Rioters running around with guns!?
One could say he had a vested interest in protecting his own life. I’d have had a fire arm on me as well in the riot. Hell I have one on me all the time! Do tell me where I have “no business going” with my 9mm. Want to make sure I defend myself only where I have appropriate “business” according to popular opinionAnd no disagreement with that scenario. The business owners were defending THEIR businesses -- a true vested interest -- something Rittenhouse lacked.
A number of folks have asked, “what’s a 17 year old doing there with a AR-15”.
Would you be willing to say at what age a person should be, before they’re old enough to carry a AR-15.
Also, would you mind saying at what age a person should be before they are old enough to carry a Ruger Mini 14 Ranch Rifle?
Also, would you mind saying at what age a person should be before they are old enough to carry a Browning A5 shot gun?
She looks like a keeper Elk. Definitely pointed in a safe direction but looks like she's got a little gun magazine in a big gun mag-well?I Think at This Age any of the Guns Lumpy Mentioned would Be Fine!

BobCat, would you mind putting a cover on that, it’s distracting.....?
Many American hero’s did stupid things.......now considered heroic?The problem with Rittenhouse is he did make a stupid decision to go there and he was on the wrong political side and was made a scapegoat by the liberal D.A. looking to please or quell the BMA.
The last guy Rittenhouse wounded should have been arrested for attempted assault with a deadly weapon, but was not because he was on the other side of the political fence supporting BMA and other lunatic groups.
Over 30 years ago the Koreans in L.A. got away with protecting their business, I doubt they could get away with it today due to Soros money electing too many left wing D.A.s in major cities.

we are going to have to do things we've never wanted to do.....this isn't your Grandpa's America......Just like the Rioters running around with guns!?
It's a dirty job, but somebody has to do it. I hope this 17 year old kid paved the way. The government is now the enemy and we better wake up to that fact.Many American hero’s did stupid things.......now considered heroic?
I pray to God you are wrong....but based on what I’ve seen in the last few years, I fear that you’re right.we are going to have to do things we've never wanted to do.....this isn't your Grandpa's America......

This is the kind of mentality that is becoming the demise of our country. Just sit back, do nothing and arm chair quarterback the people that do. Just my opinion, but in this case the young man was doing what he thought was right for his community. I applaud the young man for having a set!Two groups of idiots went out looking for confrontation and found one. Several got shot. Good. They had it coming. And one is on trial for murder. Also fine with me. It is tough to use use self-defense as an excuse when one goes out looking for trouble. Sometimes both parties are in the wrong.
You shouldn’t be considered “old” enough to own an AR until you have the emotional maturity to keep from breaking down and crying like a baby on the stand because you had to explain the colossally bad decision you made.
And it‘s my right as an American to not care about this sideshow, AND to mock anyone who does.

You refer to them as BLM, I refer to them as BMA, bowel movement A-holes.
Someone brought up what is a 17 year old doing running around with a AR-15. I got out of high school before my 18th birthday and I was running around with a M-14 thanks to Uncle Sam. The Army did not seem to have a problem with 17 year olds packing semi and full auto weapons.

Just a wisecrack from someone who thinks the whole damn thing is stupid. And my head spins imagining someone actually watches this garbage.I dont know if that is the appropriate litmus test. No matter how justified, it has to be extremely sad to take a life.
If he was 4 months older, we would have sent him with an M4 to middle east and no one would have even blinked an eye.
A 17 year old boy had an AR15 because he watched the adults that were supposed to keep order fail for an entire summer of chaos and stepped into that breach. What does anyone expect to happen? 17, 34, 50 does the age really matter or the vacuum that created the situation?
We need to get on to something important - like Brandon’s daughters stolen diary.That's ACTUALLY the issue.
Rittenhouse is just a pawn, being played by the left AND right.
The absolute cowardice and bowing to the mob, is 100% the issue.
And that started at Trump, and ends in local sheriff's.
Left and right loved the chaos. Lots of fundraising. Lots of triangulation. Lots of political power.
In the end, the same folks took it in the shorts, AGAIN. Life's were destroyed.
How ANY politician got reelected, RorD, after that, is the real problem.
This kid, is just the distraction
You sure make a lot of comments for somebody that doesnt care, or do you just need to be right?Just a wisecrack from someone who thinks the whole damn thing is stupid. And my head spins imagining someone actually watches this garbage.
I do note that the law and order crowd seems willing to give him a pass on the gun laws. It’s all about the tribe.
They kinda do if your wandering around town with it
You should talk to some of todays military kids after basic. You would walk back your comment about organized and well trained!I agree. I’ve seen what the Military does to arrogant teens. It humbles them pretty quick. I have no problem with kids as young as 17 or 18 using the kind of weapons the military uses. When they’re there, the military trains them to use their head as much as the trigger. The Military is far more organized than this group that grabbed their rifles and backwards ball caps and wandered around figuring out what to do that night or reacting to what goes on, It even looks like they were all separated. That said, I’m on his side and hope someone gets him off.
One last time for the late comers...One could say he had a vested interest in protecting his own life. I’d have had a fire arm on me as well in the riot. Hell I have one on me all the time!

just keep laying down huh? guess that's supposed to be the american way. lot of us are done laying down and not as resolved to the rocking chair as you may be.One last time for the late comers...
As I already said, he will be acquitted of the shooting charges because he had a right to defend himself -- a completely separate issue of whether he should have put himself in that situation to start -- somewhere he didn't have "appropriate business" or a vested interest.
All his mental anguish & monumental expense could have been avoided if he was home playing video games where he should have been and if the rifle was at his buddy's house where it should have been.
If either of my two sons at 17 had armed themselves & intentionally went to the scene of chaos that had nothing to do with them, they would have regretted the consequences from me.
Write it down...
Since you want to make this personal....I might have missed it; were you armed & at the riot in Kenosha??just keep laying down huh? guess that's supposed to be the american way. lot of us are done laying down and not as resolved to the rocking chair as you may be.

I sure hope this happens. I would like to think we can all agree the aftermath of the happenings is a direct result of the liberal media...Rittenhouse is going to be like that Covinton kid who faced off with the Indian beating a drum. Collecting over a million dollars from various news agencies that slander him with false information and the city gov. for making a false arrest for homicide for pure political reasons.

That makes some sense.They should charge him for the gun law violation. They should also charge the guy with expired conceal carried.
They should probably charge everyone that committed a crime regardless of side. It would have cut down on a lot of this **** from the beginning.

No, they're still going through Trump's septic tank looking for a letter from Russia.The FBI is busy looking for Bidens daughters diary. Something about showering.
Attorney “ohh okay, thanks Mr.Obvious”“Can you help me understand Mr. Rittenhouse why Gaige Grosskreutz with a pistol in his hand is a threat to kill you, but you with an AR-15 pointed at him is not a threat to kill him at this moment? Can you help me understand that?” Binger asked Rittenhouse during testimony.
“I’ve been attacked by several people, and he decided to come and point a gun at my head,” Rittenhouse replied.
Thank goodness they found Hunter’s pistol in that school trash can. Two big jobs at once would just be too much.No, they're still going through Trump's septic tank looking for a letter from Russia.
“Can you help me understand Mr. Rittenhouse why Gaige Grosskreutz with a pistol in his hand is a threat to kill you, but you with an AR-15 pointed at him is not a threat to kill him at this moment? Can you help me understand that."
Some not so tough guys around here then. mtmuleyReal tough guys, never have to tell anyone they are tough
Absolutely he would have. Still could and should be arrested. We’ll get to see if there is any legal integrity left in the City.I watched the testimony from Grosskreutz and just got the feeling this guy is a slime ball. He is suing kenosha for $10M and you could see the color leave his face as he realized his lawsuit was going down in flames the more he testified. This DB doesn't deserve .10

The dirty bum will get a settlement. Will not be 10 million or anything close to it. The insurance company for the city will pay him 30 thousand to go away instead of paying 50 thousand in lawyer fees to defeat him in civil court. They do it all the time and this is how shyster lawyers make their chump change by filing the law suit.
No doubt about it, if the local DA was playing fair by the laws, Grosskreutz would have been arrested for ADW and carrying a concealed firearm with a expired permit.

Somewhere I read they were.Aren't the gun charges misdemeanors?
Somewhere I read they were.
I believe you are trying to say anyone with a lick of sense shouldn’t have been there.Would it be interesting to know what the criminal records show on each of the dozens of rioter folks?
Yes, it would be interesting to know what the criminal records of the folks that were offering first aid and fire control as well.
How much certified or at least recorded mental health problems is there with in these rioter/protester/counter-protester groups.
How many of these rioter/protester/counter-protesters have traveled and participated in other protests, that have turned violent.
Is there any correlation of the riot, protest and counter-protest and common individuals, who regularily participate, across the country....... and their mental health history/records.
In a nut shell, does recorded mental health have anything to do with these events. And are these nation wide events seeing an inordinate number of the same people showing up to participate?
Ya, I know.......... they’re all nuts but........, I’m wondering about what percentage of people, with record mental illness problems, are involved.
Seems like a lots of the folks we hear about that are arrested at these things have previously had legal and mental health problems.
I vote that the most relevant comment in the last 2 years!This **** needs to end yesterday.
I’m not sure I can agree with this part Blue........ was purely a coincidence and irrelevant to whether whether it was self defense. It could have as easily been another patriotic protestor. Or someone on the sidelines.

More relevant then Hell Right?I vote that the most relevant comment in the last 2 years!
Hey hey....... that’s a different universe......?More relevant then Hell Right?
Yep, that BLM dick should be arrested yesterday as a Domestic Terror Threat.I thought the same exact thing when I read that.
The DOJ and FBI are called upon to take care of unruly parents at school board meetings but we don’t hear a peep when the leader of a National organization is threatening blood shed against an entire community.

...anyone with a lick of sense wouldn't have picked a fight with the King of England.....I believe you are trying to say anyone with a lick of sense shouldn’t have been there.
That the people that our young hero shot were slime balls was purely a coincidence and irrelevant to whether whether it was self defense. It could have as easily been another patriotic protestor. Or someone on the sidelines.
Rittenhouse will be a poster boy for someone. We’ll see who the high bidder is. He’s well on his way to a rap or country music career.
Well, if he went there intentionally to shoot scum bags, it’s a different kind of crime I believe. If it was truly self defense, then whether the “victim” was a criminal doesn’t matter*I’m not sure I can agree with this part Blue.
And I’m still thinking R will get convicted........ trends are pretty well established by now.
...anyone with a lick of sense wouldn't have picked a fight with the King of England.....
Oh for crying in a bucket. I won’t bother to ask you to explain the equivalence. But when they seize my property to rebuild Kenosha, we‘ll grab our stuff and ride over together....anyone with a lick of sense wouldn't have picked a fight with the King of England.....
There in lays the question. If the block parties “are” attracting “primarily/plenty” of scumbags, and.......the country is evolving, re-shaping, “progressing” in response to the demands of scumbags........is that something the general population should stand ideally by and let happen?Well, if he went there intentionally to shoot scum bags, it’s a different kind of crime I believe. If it was truly self defense, then whether the “victim” was a criminal doesn’t matter*
*Notwithstanding the fact that you’re more likely to have to defend yourself against scumbags than Eagle Scouts. And BLM block parties seem to attract plenty of scumbags.
Mr. Rittenhouse made sure he got plenty!So how much time did he serve for that?
Interesting God took so long so show up. Think He will buy the scumbag argument? Or is it still any of His business who lives and dies?And God bless em for it!
The judge came within a hair of tossing the gun charge when he was negotiating with prosecutor & defense on what instructions to give to jury. The Wisconsin law was written very ambiguous, inconclusive and subject to interpretation which gives both parties a place to argue from.Aren't the gun charges misdemeanors?
you remember wrong....BLM started as a leftist progressive movement......intent on destroying civil society.....Lump,
As I remember things, BLM seemed to start out as a local issue primarily in response to police tactics and methods.
Of course it has morphed into a conglomeration of liberal greivances, with a national flavor thanks to the mobilization of the professional protesters the left relies on.
But it is still fundamentally a beef with state and local police forces. And if the state and local governments choose to let their citizens and cities burn, people should handle it at the ballot box. And we are still free to vote with our feet.
But me taking an AK to some liberal chithole somewhere to make a stand against Rome burning just adds to the inferno. I know the cops here damn sure don’t want you to take your gun to town.
Que Johnny Cash and let’s get back to Chinese cheatgrass.
And we used to lock up crazies. Now we just give them the internet.
