Kyle Rittenhouse flashed hate symbols, posed with Proud Boys in a Wisconsin bar, prosecutors say

Double murderer gets to fuck around on the streets, just doesn't seem right.

Shortly after pleading not guilty to murder and weapons charges earlier this month, Kyle Rittenhouse showed up at a bar in Mount Pleasant, Wis., clad in a T-shirt that said “Free as F---,” prosecutors said. Then the 18-year-old allegedly drank three beers, posed for photos with members of Proud Boys and flashed a “white power” hand sign.

The excursion raised red flags for prosecutors handling the state’s case against Rittenhouse, who is charged with fatally shooting two men and wounding a third during an August protest following the police shooting of a Black man in Kenosha, Wis.

1. ...

Prosecutors are seeking to modify the bond agreement of Kyle Rittenhouse — the 17-year-old charged with killing two people during protests in Kenosha, Wisconsin, last summer — after they said he flashed white power signs and was “loudly serenaded” the Proud Boys’ anthem at a bar.

When the hell is this MFers trial? I couldn't find that.

And lock his stupid mom up while they are at it for aiding and abetting.

This murdering asswipe does not deserve to be out on bail. He is a danger to society.

2. Glad to see the prosecuters on this, maybe a little late

Given the current and chronic racial climate and the background to his crime, combined with the people paying his bail, they perhaps should have anticipated this

I predict his mommy will be arrested eventually for some sort of crimes

He is affirming his white supremacist and fascist stand.

4. But he shot three white guys.

This almost seems to help his defense. There's a crowd of white and black people, and this kid (who the prosecutor is going to argue is there to just kill as many people as possible) doesn't shoot any black people--just white. Why is a white supremacist only shooting white people? Defense attorney steps in and says, "Hey, clearly it's self defense."

Makes me wonder if his attorney might be behind this somewhat.

6. "Antifa" equals race traitor to these people

White supremacist hatred of white anti-racists and anti-fascists run deep- they think it’s treason, whereas they “understand” others’ opposition and think they’re just controlled by anti-racist whites.
