Who exactly have I said needs lined up and shot?

I was referring to emotrtkey.

We're not the thought police, but when someone's thinking gets this bent out of shape, it's worth making noise.

Oh okay, you had me worried there for a moment. I was worried there was some post I had forgotten making.

Lucky FE...I was justing dusting off my old blunderbuss

you should not take a gun to a protest, because people get into fights there and you will end up using the gun killing people, it's like bringing a nuclear bomb to a snowball fight.. you would not do it, because you do not want to be in a situation where you will be inclined to use it.. let's face it - his profile and actions point to hoping to use the gun, and he put himself into a situation where he got provoked into using it.. where a gun was not necessary and was way overkill for self defense.

Also cannot remember where the article was from, but it was saying the actual paramedics and stuff helping injured people felt uncomfortable with him around. So the stories of how he was providing medical aid likely don't have much merrit it was more like he was marching around with his gun and paramedics where actually concerned about his presence and from that also does not seem like he was so much helping provide medical aid as being intimidating to the people actually helping injured people.

He didn't take a gun to a protest. He took a gun to a riot where violent criminals were destroying property and committing other lawless acts to defend innocent people from being harmed. He is a hero who risked his life to help his neighbors. I admire his courage and bravery. If you watched the video, a crowd of at least 50 people ran after him while threatening to inflict serious bodily harm. He didn't try to shoot anyone. He tried to run away to avoid hurting anyone. It wasn't until they knocked him over, one of them tried to kick him in the head and another attacked him with a skateboard that he was forced to use his gun in what was clearly self-defense.

Blaming a victim for defending himself is shameful. It's like telling a woman it's her fault she got raped because she shouldn't have been at a party and should have known what would happen or blaming her for using mace to keep the rapists from raping her. The fault lies with the violent criminals who attacked him and those in government who support lawlessness. After Trump stepped in to provide the police protection Democrats refused to provide, the rioting stopped and the citizens were safe again.

He incited violence with an illegal military weapon.

AR stands for assault rifle. Not a self-defense weapon at all.

This is a really important point those throwing support behind Rittenhouse are carefully avoiding addressing. They are pushing a false narrative that Rittenhouse was some type of "Florence Nightingale" providing first aid and defender of the vulnerable.

I also read there were paramedics on site and there is no evidence Rittenhouse was even qualified or capable of providing first aid. You cant be a vigilante first aider if you are technically not supposed to be parading around a curfew. Obviously he never offered first aid to the actual people he killed or injured. So that fairy tale is starting to fall apart.

There are a number of witness statements that will almost certainly used by prosecutors including one where Rittenhouse was observed offering medical but then aimed his gun and ordered people out of their car at gunpoint

Another group of witnesses were trying to escape when one of them observed Rittenhouse point his gun ready to shoot him. According to one witness named Jerimiah
https://www.jsonline.com/story/news/loc ... 656907002/
As he made his way toward it, Jeremiah saw more armed white men. Two crouched on the roof of a building, sniper style. Two or three others stood guard over the lot. One of them, a babyface with a backward ball cap, raised an assault rifle and pointed it at him.

Jeremiah, 24 and Black, was more annoyed than afraid. He'd been out protesting all summer, more than 90 days so far. He knew about these guys and their scare tactics, and he refused to be intimidated.

When the kid started yelling, Jeremiah shouted back: "I'm trying to get out of here. If you're gonna shoot me, just shoot!"

A few minutes later, Jeremiah saw the same guy pointing his weapon at someone else.

This time, Kyle Rittenhouse fired.

He brought a gun to another state to a protest that had nothing to do with him and shot people. That's not heroic its just gross. He didn't try to shoot anyone yet he shot 3 people dead...interesting. He wasn't a victim he was brandishing a weapon intimidating people and then killed people. Or I suppose even if he was a victim he certainly created three more. At the very least he thought he was acting in self defense, but that is a far stretch from him being a hero for illegally bringing a gun to a protest outside of his own state and shooting people...regardless of why he did it.

He is a violent criminal and should have been arrested on the spot. I mean they let him walk away even back behind cop cars, one could even argue that put police officers at risk, letting a shooting suspect walk behind the police blockade that way.

The police thanked him and gave him water not bothering to check that he murdered or shot multiple people. In addition to the three victims there were others he aimed at but did not hit.

If I understand right though the water thing was before he shot the people...he was part of some weird militia group that showed up and the police were thanking them for being there. But I think that occurred before the shootings, after the fact is when they just let let him drive home.

Sorry yes - before the shootings - it seems the police were actively encouraging Rittenhouse before he went on his shooting spree

Not a military rifle, not an assault rifle and "AR" stands for "Armalite Rifle" after the manufacturer. Or is This also an assault rifle?

It's amazing how often people repeat simple lies such as this...Doesn't really encourage reading further.

Is there really rock solid evidence he wasn't carrying other weapons? you are going with his defence team's claim that he "innocently" obtained one gun from his friend.

But...The authorities found Rittenhouse in possession of 2 rifles and Investigators have not revealed whether one or both of the rifles were fired by Rittenhouse, or somebody else, during the destruction in Kenosha that followed the police shooting of Jacob Blake. There could be further legal complications for the teenager if he was found to have transported the guns across the state line. My understanding is this is still under investigation
