I don’t think that the fact that he went there, and accepted carrying the firearm, is evidence enough to judge his motives. While I don’t see him as a hero to worship, I also don’t see him as a villain. But I do agree with you that he acted unwisely. He made a series of poor decisions, which to him seemed perfectly fine, but helped bring about the inevitabilities of the evening.Thanks for asking, Chip. I said what I said because he went there, armed, knowing the likelihood was high that he would need the gun. Whatever other purposes he had did not require a rifle.
Cleaning graffiti does not require a rifle.
Providing medical aid, in and of itself, does not require a rifle. In my time on the ambulance, there were some times I wished I could carry, but it was pointed out to me that if I needed the gun, I didn’t need to be there; that you protect yourself first (by absence) because there is nothing more useless than a dead medic; that the very first question is always always always, “Is the scene secure?” If the answer is no, you don’t belong there.
i have wondered but not asked who the hell asks a 17yr old kid to provide security for his car lot.... does the owner not sell enough cars to hire a real, bonded security agency??
All of this, to me says either that he was looking for a fight or knew the chance was high that one would find him.
To me, that leads to one conclusion: Stay the F away, especially if you’re going there on your own. Obv if you’re paid EMS, that is not a valid option.
Blessings,

That seems pretty easy to answer, I carry a gun pretty much whenever I’m going somewhere where I’m legally allowed. But if I’m going somewhere that I’d only go because I’m armed, that’s an indicator that I shouldn’t go there.How does one know when to have a gun? It would be super convenient to know.
Seems to me the Chiefs of Police don't have the balls to stand up to the mayors.
Everyone needs to listen to this podcast:
https://wiba.iheart.com/featured/vi...to-talk-about-the-kyle-rittenhouse-situation/
Thank you for the summary.For those who didn' t bother to listen to it, it's an interview with a guy who says he was there, on the roof with Rittenhouse's group. He says Rittenhouse was there with his older brother but got separated when he went to give someone medical treatment. Then he got into trouble with the crowd when he tried to extinguish a fire in a burning car.
BLM and their leaders who have instigated all this violence should be brought to justice. Jail. And they should have to pay reparations to all the businesses across the nation for their losses.If you're not pissed enough watch this.

That’s actually not relevant.What are those places for you?

Wait what?That’s actually not relevant.

When you tell people that all white people are racists, that denying it confirms they’re racist, that silence is violence, that to be the ally of black people, white people must be anti-racists, and that means fighting “racists”, that no lives matter until black lives matter, that all white people owe all black people, that all the problems in black communities is the fault of white people, that it is the right of black people and their “anti-racist” allies to riot, loot, and burn people’s businesses, THATS instigation in any sane universe.What is litmus for “instigated?” Those who explicitly call for violence and destruction, sure, I get it. Charge them. But from what I’ve seen, you’d have to really take a generous poetic license to turn those words into a legitimate charge. But admittedly, I don’t follow the ramblings of the BLM organization, so there might be something I am unaware.
That's because too many on INGO would rather use a microscope to criticize the flaws of a good person than pay proper attention to the malevolence and criminality that he was confronted with. I asked several pages back about any charges against any of the rioters. Not a single answer was given.
Ha! Thought you were being sarcastic and ironic... you do realize the times we live in... that the foot soldiers of the left will not be charged for their crimes because they advance or attempt to advance the cause.
