Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire New video looks like 17 year old Kyle Rittenhouse may have been shot at first

He wasn't shooting to "protect property". He was shooting to protect himself. What he was doing (legally) prior the point he was attacked and fired in self defense does not matter. He was conducting himself in a legal manner, then was TWICE pursued by those attempting to do great bodily harm to him. Maybe being there wasn't "smart". But it was (at least as we can discern now) noble, and certainly legal.

This is still America (for now). People are free to go where ever the fugg they want to engage in legal activities. Cleaning graphiti, providing services as a result of a technical skill (paramedic), and standing watch over property are all legal activities.

What if he responded to Louisiana to assist with hurricane recovery efforts? And in the process of assisting with those efforts, was attacked, and needed to defend himself. Would that change anything? It shouldn't.

The fact he crossed a state, county, or city line shouldn't weigh into this.

The fact that he was charged will keep the spotlight on this much longer than it would have otherwise. Especially with the legal firepower that looks to be helping.

And here's the incident the left was waiting for to have a "gun control" issue in the news to inflame that group, prior to the election.

Still waiting for the "gay" and "hispanic" issues, should be any day now.

The socialists are already saying that he's a white supremacists and a drug addict. I don't believe either.
They will spin this any which way their ministers of propaganda decide...

The spin...

I didn't see evidence of that in the videos I saw. There seemed to be no wounds on him except the head. The people that gathered around him couldn't figure out where he'd been shot either, because his shirt was off and tangled around his face. It had been used as a sort of hat as he ran at Rittenhouse before the shooting. The only obvious wound was in his head, and he looked like someone with a traumatic brain injury. He wasn't dead, but he wasn't responsive either.

I could be wrong, but that isn't what I saw, and though there were others firing guns around there, it looked and sounded to me like Rittenhouse fired four times.

Not only is this kid going to walk he will receive a large settlement...

According to the article posted from the New York Times, in addition to the rounds fired by Rittenhouse from his rifle, there were at least 16 other shots fired. Kinda makes one wonder who were the other shooters?? Some one (or ones) were certainly capping off other rounds and where did they go?? Were they addressed "To Whom It May Concern?"

L.W.

The situation: Wacko communist with his shirt over his head is throwing stuff at you and chasing you (apparently also swinging a brick in a pillowcase or something like that). You're running away. You get blocked by a bunch of parked cars. You hear gunshots. You turn around and see the madman almost on top of you and reaching for your gun. What do you do?

Damn right, pow, pow, pow.

LOL I didn't say he fired to protect property.
But reports are he was there with his weapon
with the aim of protecting property.




Its not just about what he was doing legally,

Was he breaking the lawful cerfew like the
other offenders?

Was he as an 17 yo Illinois resident legally
carrying his weapon in Wisconsin?

Open carry and concealed carry is legal for
those who are minimum 18 years age.

My God you're stupid. so when I go back to Wisconsin to grouse hunt I need a permit for my ugartechea sxs?

So every state requires permits for Deere, elk, grouse . pheasant, antelope elk sheep hunting firearms?

Its not about you - it's about a 17 yo and what
the law of Wisconsin does/doesn't permit for
minors.

So when does the felon with his forearm half blown off get charged with attempted murder, Restricted person in possession of a firearm, etc.? Oh that’s right, he won’t be because the Dems are in league with these people.

Also, what are the odds of the thee people shot all being felons? I’ll bet the overall makeup of the rioters are ex-cons!

Your have poor reading comprehension, you should shut your pie hole.....

Cops shoot people because they "act" like they have a gun, just sayin'

Our ancestors should have picked their own godddamm cotton and left the Africans in Africa.

I just saw on AOL news that people and relatives of the two dead felons are saying they were sweet gentle people who would not hurt a fly. That crap would gag a maggot. What total mitigate political bovine excrement. Are people rally that stupid? The dead were the "good guys"? We truly are in a bizzarro world.

Colonial America was a business venture, and top executives in England made the call to import black slaves to increase the profit margin. Only later did Americans start thinking of themselves as a nation distinct from these business concerns. By then, the black slaves were already here.

So Johnn, are you johnw's sock puppet? and why should I shut up?

I read what johnw said just fine and so did many others.
