I THINK we can all agree that Rittenhouse traveled to Kenosha, WI during the riots there, obtained a firearm, and went out into the streets with said firearm where the riots were occurring.
Umm, not exactly. Perhaps more differences of connotation or implication rather than strict denotation, but:
- "traveled to Kenosha, WI" implies some significant trip, when in fact he drove about 20 miles from his mother's home in IL to his father's home in WI (parents are separated); when I was his age, I drove that far to go to school, and today I drive further than that to work
- "obtained a firearm" implies that he acquired such firearm contemporaneously, when in fact the firearm had been his for some time, and he kept it at his father's home (where it was legal for him to have it in Wisconsin) rather than his mother's home (where it was not legal for him to possess it in Illinois)
- "went out into the streets with said firearm" implies that he was going in search of trouble, when in fact his objective was to protect his father's business from being looted, pillaged, and possibly burned
Clearly, those facts do not support "dress up and play with guns."
Just for the record, are you one of those people who believe that the people he shot were black and the motivation was racial?

Ask yourself what your elected officials would do? Hell, most of them were running willy nilly for the hills January 6th.
Im not so sure about him. He is an actor that played, guess what, a president. His primary language is Russian.
As someone said, truth is the first casualty of war. Lots of propaganda.
Hell the Russians camped out on his doorstep for a month and then invaded his country. What was he doing?
Congrats for stepping up as they march into your capital, i guess.
It would be wise for everyone to keep the bolded in mind. Lots of deception happens in war.
Well the Ukrainians are doing well getting out their positive spin.

No. I'm no expert on the case, but from what I know I don't see a basis to conclude that his actions were racially motivated.

Welp that should clear out any remaining leftist posters here. Surely they are on their way to fight for Ukraine!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Best of luck fellas.

What about you? You guys play pretending to dislike Commie Russia because muh fake collusion with Trump. At least Antifa keeps it real and carries the Soviet Flag. You do know that USA engaged in a coup over there when Obama was in charge. Brennan even made a personal trip there when he was the Dir of the CIA.
When the Ukrainian president was replaced by a US-selected administration, in an entirely unconstitutional takeover, politicians such as William Hague brazenly misled parliament about the legality of what had taken place: the imposition of a pro-western government on Russia's most neuralgic and politically divided neighbour. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...v-conflict

Unlike so many in the media.
Thanks, if I can occasionally get a "that Gamenole, he's nuts but not as bats***t crazy as the lamestream media" around here, I'll take it. I saw your post too about implications from my agreed facts, I would reword "traveled" and "obtained". I didn't intend that connotation with traveled, but I see how it can give the impression you noted. And on "obtained" I was just wrong, I didn't check the facts and I was thinking it was contemporaneous. None of that would change my opinion, but you make good points to achieve better clarity & accuracy.

I well remember watching Reagan, Thatcher and John Paul II win the Cold War for the West, and you won't find me with a red flag waxing nostalgic for the USSR. I've learned watching history unfold over my lifetime to be suspicious of Russia, not because of alleged collusion with Trump. Yes, their documented meddling in the 2016 election is further cause to mistrust Putin. And yes, it is documented that they meddled in an attempt to help Trump. But it was thoroughly investigated and I also accept the other conclusion of the Mueller report, that there was no documented collusion between Trump & the Russians. So those on the left who cling to that fantasy need to let it go, just as some on the right would be well-served by moving on from their fixation with the alleged crimes of Mrs. Clinton.
Antifa is not something I support either. I've never been to a protest and have no great desire to go to one, but I do support the right to peacefully protest. I do not support riots, insurrections, occupations, etc. whether they are carried out by the left or the right and whether they take place in Kenosha, the capital, Seattle, Ottawa or elsewhere.
I also read a report that Dr. IKILLATWILL Soros is asking for Nato and countries around Ukraine to help take in refugees. What's wrong with this picture. If Soros is asking something like this it's not a good look as he (like the Demoncrapped) don't do anything that does not help THEIR cause. It smells fishy.

You seem like a decent guy. Quite misguided, but decent.
I certainly hope you’re never in a situation where you went somewhere to help and do good, armed yourself for protection, and then have to defend your life because someone was trying to take a skateboard to your head multiple times.
Rittenhouse is going to live with that PTSD for the rest of his life. That and the feeling of taking a life. It’s not easy, and I hope for your soft, misguided self that you never find yourself in such a situation. You’re far too soft to ultimately survive it.

Ok start a thread for that
I haven't seen any proof that's even a valid statement. All I hear from him is reeeeeeeeee... He's simply a more eloquent version of CommieTom.

He definitely posts some head scratchers, but he’s far better at discourse than most of the leftists around here.

I just edited my previous post to include "he is simply a more eloquent version of CommieTom". It's all mostly just psychobabble as far as I'm concerned.
I'll concede though that he is an upgrade from most of the leftist trolls here.
I heard he was offered his own show in Branson right across the street from Yakov Smirnoff. He turned them down flat, even after they threw in free Duck Boat tickets, buy one get one free coupons to Country Stampede and a front of the line pass to every ride at Silver Dollar City.
