    They (except Rosenbaum) did not go to Kenosha to play cop, but they did react to what they thought was a killer / active shooter on the run and tried to stop him.

    Grosskreuz was a paramedic, and was there for that reason.

    Vigilante = a member of a self-appointed group of citizens who undertake law enforcement in their community without legal authority

    I doubt it. How about you? BLM?

    Do paramedics usually carry guns? Once they tried to stop what they thought was a killer / active shooter on the run, they also became vigilantes (by your definition).

    You said "riots and bloodshed". Is that what you are seeing? I see a picture of people holding sign "self defense is not a crime" and others asking for guilty verdict. Its fine as long as it stays like that.



    You are a vigilante if you are a "member of a self-appointed group of citizens who undertake law enforcement in their community without legal authority".

    I don't have a problem with labeling them vigilantes, even if they don't fit the definition 100%. Is there something wrong with the term?

    False, they were there to burn and destroy and kill. Those chose Kyle and lost gloriously.

    You were the one that thinks / thought (I sure hope at this point that you're not still clinging to this misconception) Kyle killed "black guys". Confused much?

    WTF?

    Did you not read my post? You are the only one here trying to identify a random hand gesture done while simply gesticulating during a speech, with a hand symbol done on purpose to pose for a photo.

    People haven't used that symbol to mean "ok" in a long time. Except maybe old people like Biden. Today most people use a thumbs up. So it's clear how a white supremacist teenager would use it. Except to members of his fan club who have now raised him to the ranks of "hero", and who want to fabricate a talking point for gullible right-wingers to use.

    Aren't riots and bloodshed pretty common there already?

    The Antifa Democrats are telling you they're going to riot if Rittenhouse is acquitted. You can ignore that or choose to disbelieve them if you want, but I think both would be foolish choices. That's why the NG is getting deployed and police departments in the region are cancelling leave.

    ETA: of course threats like this don't get pulled off Twitter for violating their community standards, because that's what their community wants:

    False, no one uses it as a white supremacist symbol. Thats the lefts false narrative you fell for.

    Its simply the ok sign.

    Whats even crazier is lefties support these poeple.

    And they feel THIS comfortable openly talking about rioting on social media.

    Where the he'll did you get the idea Grosskreutz is a paramedic? He was carrying an illegal firearm illegally. He pulled the gun and pointed it at Kyle before he was shot. Christ, Kyle actually is trained in advanced first aid and carried a med kit with him. How about Grosskreutz? No He did not.

    Because despite not having any equipment to treat people and not actually offering anyone any aid that we see (or that he testifies to) he is a trained EMT even if he hasn't worked as one in 4 years.
    Kyle had equipment, offered aid to several people and treated a few, and isn't trained as an emt though he has some training.

    My take on this is just a bit different I believe. There were some Proud Boys at a bar Kyle and his mother went to. PBs are a provocative group that likes to stir up controversy and that's why I think they like this sign. They are a multi-ethnic group that condemn racism. I'm not sure what the symbol means to them but I know it doesn't indicate any kind of racism. They got Kyle to give the okay sign with them. Kyle's phone as well as his on-line history has been thoroughly vetted for even a hint of any kind of racism and none was found. Our President is an ******* for suggesting as much and should be thoroughly condemned.

    Lolwut?

    2 Random Internet Nobodies?
    One Twitter Acct. Only has 398 Followers...And, the Other has 320...
    Where are you even coming up with this crap?
    How did 2 Insignificant Twitter accts. (with only 398 and 320 followers) even end up on your radar?
    I mean, I have heard of reaching back for misguided RW BS to push a Fabricated Narrative, but that takes the cake. 398 and 320 followers? You've got to be kidding.:bored:

    And, you really want to hang your hat on that sort of BS? Wow...:smh:

    (It wouldn't surprise me, in the least, if they were sock puppet accounts set up by the RW just to push Fake BS Narratives for the "Hey Lookie, LW Gonna Riot!" crowd).

    Are people really that gullible?
    To buy into BS from a couple of random Twitter accounts with less than 400 followers?
    LMAO!!!

    Sounds like a Reason to Declare Martial Law!:roflol::bored:

    Here's another one, if a us soldier were to walk into a enemy combatant stronghold alone, if he got out, he would be court martialed.

    So go ahead and bray and bleat what the idiot Rittenhouse did was brave. :)

    What he did was absolutely brave.

    He stood his ground against violent terrorists, put out fires, all despite the danger. And ultimately came out on top.

    He is a hero.

    I think the problem with the left is you tend to use things like hand gestures when your trying to defame people as racist. Lefties seem to do it to anyone who doesn't agree with you and it's done over and over and over. To say the right is past the evil it takes for those to attempt to brand people is an understatement. We're now down to wacko WHITE leftiest calling black people they disagree with white supremacist. The world is quickly realizing the left is attempting to destroy race relations and the great progress America has made.

    Not only what he did was as stupid as it comes, I would even call the person who suggested he go to the area, alone stupid also.

    As usual your confused as ever, Rosenbaum went to commit FELONy ARSON and he did commit FELONY ARSON. Kyle and the other were there to protect people like Rosenbaum from committing felony arson because the wacko lefty mayor decided to let felons burn his city and didn't protect it. Rosenbaum did not in anyway shape or form think kyle was an active shooter he hadn't fired his gun. The other two idiots chased an active shooter you claim, well for two blocks he didn't raise his gun at anyone nor shoot anyone so either they're the dumbest lefties on the planet or the media and prosecution is making it up so people like you repeat it.

    You are entitled to your incorrect position.

    But due to his actions, 2 terrorists will never attack and attempt to kill anyone ever again. People are inspired to stand their ground against terrorists more than ever, and a third terrorist has thoroughly been outed and embarrassed.

    He is a genuine hero.
