Anthony Huber and Joseph Rosenbaum are victims. They should be alive today.
The only reason theyre not is because a violent, dangerous man chose to take a gun across state lines and start shooting people.
To call this a miscarriage of justice is an understatement.

Surprised to see someone as high-profile as de Blasio not know this by now.

Is it true? Only Rittenhouse and his buddy know for sure.

(13,925 posts)Mom drove him across the state line with the gun. Turns out that was either social media bee ess or bad reporting.
Turns out he had a gun waiting for him across the state line with his father or step father.
So at 17 he scoots across the state line, picks up the gun and purposely places himself in a violent riot.
Put yourself in a life threatening situation, you don't leave, you stay and remain armed. You don't stay close to the cops.
That isn't a crime but it seems a situation where self defense should NOT apply.
He acted stupidly, and I still suspect he did it for racist reasons. The little fascist was a lucky young man.
I believe we will see him in law enforcement after he does a turn in the military.

(5,969 posts)Spreading disinformation which might rile up people, possibly leading to riots based on incomplete data and actual misinformation which may end up in more shootings. This is what we called stochastic terrorism when Trump did it.

(5,574 posts)he had a Wisconsin friend buy it for him in Wisconsin. The friend was old enough to purchase it legally. Kyle knew he wasn't of age. So he did purchase it illegally. He knew it was wrong. We'll hear he got in some trouble again, I'm betting.

(2,728 posts)Do you have any supporting evidence from any sources to support this belief? Or is evidence not required? More of a gut-sense sort of response which drives this. Or something else entirely? Genuinely curious with non-confrontational intent in asking.

(1,033 posts)trunk. His mother said this in the video in the Washington Post report:
The mother drove to Kenosha to pick up her son. She drove home. "They were already there." she said. I assume she meant that Dominic Black and others had arrived at her house. Eventually she drove "around" and drove to the police station. Rittenhouse turned himself in. The police went to Rittenhouse's mother's home and found the rifle in the trunk of Dominic's car. So yes they crossed the state line with the weapon after the killings.
