Rittenhouse. What an American Hero. Will Biden apologise?

Wikipedia is not a viable source.

I very much expected the above from you, and you "delivered". A serious response would have been to post some source to the contrary with a link, but you couldn't even do that. I used Wiki because it is not affiliated with any partisan-political source.

It is when leadership refuses to protect those they are supposed to protect. If the National guard had been called in it would not have been necessary for citizens to do thier job.

So if we all thought this way, how do you think our society would function?

Have you seen the movie The Purge?

 

[SkepticThinker]

So then that's a yes? Let the people's lively hoods be destroyed? Let people be beaten? If that was your community, you would just stand by?

What I wouldn't do is grab a gun and insert myself into a volatile situation when trained police officers exist to do such things.

Life is more important than money and things.

 

[SkepticThinker]

So every soldier who killed in war is by definition a killer?

Anyone who has killed a person is a killer.

I just found out than in one of our middle schools that's literally three blocks from where I live, had a father armed with a long gun walk in and demand his son to take out, and five police cars showed up in a very short time. As of now, I don't know what the police may have or may not have done.

I continue to get the impression that the crazies have continued to come out of the woodwork.

YEP! Good thinking. Right along the lines of your leader Donald J. Trump.

Make America Great Again.​

Bring us back to the good old days when men hunted for squirrel and deer. Back to when we overran the local natives. Back to when we were importing dark-skinned people to work the fields. Back to when women couldn't vote. Back to when male life expectancy was 38 years. Back to when child infant mortality was 80 times what it is today.

Back to when America was Great. YeeHaw

ETA:


Because my comment is directed to you and you are a fervent Trump supporter and follower.

That’s not what is meant by MAGA, your comment reflects Build Back Better.

Much better. Less lawlessness.

Especially when it's not your things or your money.

Wikipedia is not a viable source. Anyone can post anything there. And NPR and your other listed sources are all leftist with an agenda of thier own.
I'm sure there are some racist people in their group just like there some racists in BLM. That doesn't make them a white supremacist group.

Wiki is a very useful resource. Use the footnotes to the source material, the footnotes are your friends.

Seriously? Every footnote on every wiki page is an unreliable source?

No, the ones in question. They are from left leaning sources.

Okay, let's start with footnote 1 from that particular page. Is it a left-leaning source?

What happened in the Rittenhouse situation where he was attacked by the men he shot in self defense is not a result of the Proud boys, Covid or anything other than evil people being allowed to commit
crimes without consequences due to defund police rhetoric which has resulted in good people being forced to protect others from criminals.

And you honestly feel that this is the cause & effect? Doncha think there can be and are other factors?

Well some of the news outlets lie about the situation and get away with it, this is a big problem and cause. Then politicians make decisions based on the lies.

The several ones that I watched over the weeks didn't do that as far as I can tell, nor did our local paper. So, which one(s) supposedly did, and can you provide links as the article you posted makes general statements but no real specifics as to whom did what?

Here are some and could go back in the archives and find a lot.
Are CNN and MSNBC About to Make Kyle Rittenhouse Rich?

I watched parts of both of them, and the only thing they focused on in the negative was why was Rittenhouse there to begin with, and why was he armed as he was being a teen, and why didn't the military and police tell him to get out of harm's way?

As far as guilty or innocent, I believe both had people covering different sides. And I for one thought that he was likely innocent on the charges under Wisconsin law, and I heard some others say the same on those networks.
