[BBally81]

Well, this is going to upset some of his supporters

It hardly matters if he actually does or not - no one's going to particularly believe him, mostly because they have serious problems.

I particularly enjoy reading about black leaders who say they fear it's now open season on protestors. Seemingly assaulting private property and people holding guns is now an inherent part of BLM or something, because otherwise that sentiment makes absolutely no sense.

Precisely speaking, he said he supports the movement. In my opinion a lot of people point to every slanted facet of the organization, which has post westernized views and is structured rather fringely, as if supporting it for the sake of black civil rights is no different than putting the organization on a pedestal in spite of or because of those features.

There's a lot more going on than looting. That's big words heard from the people actually getting effected by it, but from the breadth of the national news headlines there's still a pertinent civil rights issue that persists and is nonetheless unfairly exacerbated by the same circumstance.

With believing a guy who carried a gun to a protest and killed two people at a protest against police brutality.

Unpack what you have written. "A guy murdered two people he decided that deserved to die because he decided he had the authority to judge property was more important human life." You break a window, you die.

That's the defense he's got?

If I recall correctly, he showed up to assist a friend who owned a car dealership who had lost more than a hundred cars to vandal-started fires the night before.

The two killed were a convinced pedophile and a suicidally-depressed man, both of whom attacked Rittenhouse.

Threaten the property and physical safety of a gun-toting person, and you're asking to die.

Maybe they shouldn't have used a protest against police brutality as an excuse to destroy and steal, eh?

Also known as planning a crime. If you plan to get guns to get revenge on people then you're a crook. Rittenhouse is not a cop. This is the same as planning a gang murder in retaliation.

Ah yes, which Kyle Rittenhouse magically knew with his Paladin powers I assume?

Or are we going with the sickening, "He had a joint in his pocket so it was alright for the police to gun him down" defense?

I can't figure out if you're trolling us, or just taking too many pills. Either way, I'm done.

Yeah people need to stop bringing up the history of the two killed. It doesn't matter. I mean would you hate Rittenhouse if he killed a mother of four instead of a pedophile? Would that change the stance of self defense? What if one of them was a combat veteran? Would that too?
