You have to be fucking kidding me: Kyle Rittenhouse drinking at a bar with his mom

Kyle Rittenhouse is not only out on bail, but is hanging out with his mom drinking in Racine, WI. The "free as fuck" shirt is a nice touch to the fuck you that is our judicial system. This country may just be broken beyond repair.

Did he become 21 on his 18th birthday (whenever) Is this white privilege? Bernardo de La Paz Jan 2021 #1
Apparently, 18+ year olds are allowed to drink in a bar if a parent/guardian is present (in WI). n/t demmiblue Jan 2021 #6

Video showing an 18 year old drinking in his bar. That's a hefty fine, a short term license suspension, and a ton of points held against him in future violations.

...at new year's time, that he was back home in Illinois.
His bail payment allowed it.
I was assuming this bar is in Illinois, but Antioch is pretty darned close to the state line.
Channel 7 news is reporting this is in Wisconsin.
Faulty assumption on my part!

However, that business might have some legal action for his underage drinking.

Zoom the picture! The pic is a mirror image, but it says Coors Light.
The drinking law here is 21. An age he is not!

In some states it’s legal to drink with a parent at a bar.

Yeah I don’t like it, doesn’t mean it’s illegal.

They can also purchase alcohol for their kids in drinking establishments. It has been a few years since I was in the business, but at that time as long as the parent bought the drink and handed it to their kid, it was legal.

Not sure of the laws for someone out on bail.

I looked it up.
Found three articles right away that said prosecutors state that it doesn't.
Maybe it should, but it doesn't.

the witness was an Antifa plant. How could she tell? He was wearing his hat backward. Does this mean that Kyle is an Antifa plant?

Not just in the typical parent and child ways but an unusual emotional influence and attachment.

I noticed the same thing in that video of one of those that attacked the Capitol . Someone saw him with others afterwards including who I assume was his mother. They recorded it and the guy sounded really stupid.
