New Kyle Rittenhouse Footage
Someone has gone to the trouble of putting together the various videos of the event in Kenosha that led to this young, very well intentioned kid shooting three people. One can argue he should not ever have gone there, nor taken a weapon with him, but one can also argue he was trying to do some good in a very bad situation and given how violent the crowds have been, being armed was not an unreasonable precaution.
What's important is that he was not the violent one in any way, was not there to attack anyone, everything he did was defensive in a situation where he had every cause to fear for his life. Note the past records of the people who attacked him, none of them is a choir boy and the survivor clearly states he wanted to kill the young man. Someone with lesser control might well have shot several people in the mob chasing him.
The criminal charges against him are ridiculous misuse of prosecutorial power, given the very clear evidence of what happened and who was attacking whom. But they are out to pacify the mob and will try all kinds of stuff to get the kid to plead guilty to something in a "deal". I hope fundraising is going well for him, lawyers are coming to help, and if the NRA doesn't come to his aid, I'll never give them another dime
