    Some overtly pro-homicidal punk posters, too.

    So standing there with a gun is cause to be attacked? Guy with a skateboard attacking a person with a gun? Yeah, I'm gonna let them beat me. Great Logic. No, he shouldn't have been there either in IMO. He was and it happened.

    Certainly not fair nor accurate to call the guy a murderer. As has been pointed out, there was a trial and a verdict. If you're going to accept that Trump is a felon based on his trial, you kinda need to accept Rittenhouse's verdict too.
    But I think it's pretty valid to question his celebrity status, his ability to make money off his killing two people and why in the world he was invited to a music fest.

    He took his gun and crossed state lines specifically looking for trouble. And he found it. I don’t care what any court says, that ain’t self defense.

    The fatal lesson learned by the victims of Kyle Rittenhouse as well as Trayvon Martin, the victim of George Zimmerman, is don't confront an armed nutcake looking for an excuse to fire his weapon.

    Both can be true. The prosecutors should have gone for neglegence instead of murder. He was clearly attacked and defended himself. I do agree he shouldnt be there and probably broke some law transporting a weapon to another state, especially while being under the age of 18. However, that doesn't equate to proving intent with murder because some other idiot decided to attack another idiot with a gun.

    Im all for more laws and background checkes and closing loopholes and strict punishment for gun violations such as what he probably committed that day. He is the type that gets us closer to our gun rights being taken away completely.

    Some in this thread make me laugh.....they are willing to accept and throw around the results of the New York Trump kangaroo court but unwilling to accept the Rittenhouse vertict.

    People despise KR with good reason. Or are you of the mindset that he should be celebrated? If not, you might try to understand why some don't like it when people get shot & killed.

    Laughable post. You just did the same thing in reverse. Here's the truth: Trumph and KR are pond scum.

    I agree he was charged incorrectly. Manslaughter at worst. Probably negligence. But he was definitely IN THE WRONG by inserting himself into a situation he had nothing to do with where there was a high likelihood he’d have to defend himself.

    Sorry, but I have to disagree with you on Trayvon. He did not confront Zimmerman. He was a child who was targeted and stalked by a grown ass man and then murdered by him.

    Admittedly a poor choice of words. Obviously speculation since only two people actually know what happened with one of which was killed by the other with the latter having no incentive to be truthful my guess is that Trayvon correctly as it turned out felt threatened by Zimmerman, foolishly tried to disarm him and in doing so lost his life.

    Are you willing to accept the legitimate New York court verdict. Trump's legal team participated in jury selection

    Y’all know this is an old ass thread, right?

    It was bumped because apparently KR was in the news over some metal concert/festival that fell apart.

    credit to them for disavowing the event after the fact. Sounds like they didn’t know he would be there - can’t blame them for that. Most bars I know of don’t ask who the guests will be when booking a private event and make good $ off those events
