Let's have a look:

https://legal-dictionary.thefreediction ... igilantism

Taking the law into one's own hands and attempting to effect justice according to one's own understanding of right and wrong; action taken by a voluntary association of persons who organize themselves for the purpose of protecting a common interest, such as liberty, property, or personal security; action taken by an individual or group to protest existing law; action taken by an individual or group to enforce a higher law than that enacted by society's designated lawmaking institutions; private enforcement of legal norms in the absence of an established, reliable, and effective law enforcement body.

So it is "absence of an established, reliable, and effective law enforcement body" in Kenosha that night, not Kyle, created - by definition - a "vigilantism". And what does it do in such case? "Enforcement of legal norms". What's wrong with that? Long live vigilantism!


And that's exactly why I have flipped the narrative on liberal friends and say that there were mobs of violent vigilante arsonists who crossed state lines into Wisconsin to burn buildings to the ground, destroy millions of dollars in property, and violently attack innocents and good samaritans who tried to prevent the destruction by vigilante mobs.

Very good news for ALL of us freemen. Nice to see actual justice prevail for a change. Never EVER should have even gone to trial.

I went shooting today, to celebrate. Started cold with a Bill Drill, and 2x2 Mozambiques. Ran some El Prez with rifle too.

In honor of the Kenosha Mile, one of them was armed...

‘Boy, did he do good:’ Rittenhouse offered a lifetime supply of gun ammo
https://thepeoplesledger.com/boy-did-he-do-good-rittenhouse-offered-a-lifetime-supply-of-gun-ammo/

Quote:
Nugent took it a step further in the “Rock of Nations with Dave Kinchen” podcast. The rocker said he wants to provide Rittenhouse “a lifetime supply of ammunition” and wants to start a gun training class in Rittenhouse’s name.

“As a young man, boy did he do good,” Nugent said on the podcast. “He knew that weapon. He was a samurai as a teenager that under those unbelievable, traumatic and physically assaultive conditions — he did his job. It was beautiful. I applaud everything Kyle Rittenhouse stands for.”

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene introduced a bill to award a Congressional Gold Medal to Kyle Rittenhouse

Quote:
Greene introduced the bill on Tuesday, along with a summary that read: "To award a Congressional Gold Medal to Kyle H. Rittenhouse, who protected the community of Kenosha, Wisconsin, during a Black Lives Matter (BLM) riot on August 25, 2020."

It needs 2/3rds of both sides of Congress to pass.

It’ll never get through, and she’s grandstanding.

Not worth talking about except it will force Dems to voice a position.

Kinda smart as far as mid-terms go...

In China the legal system has a bias against good Samaritan's ( to preserve the govt monopoly on force?). This has stifled citizen involvement in citizens acting to prevent crime or even helping the victims of accident and injury.

I suspect the Kenosha witch trial and the Ahmaud Arbery convictions will have similar affect here.

I get it, he's a good kid, but really, a CGM?

No. There are much more deserving people, IMO.

I agree, TW.

However, it is a way to fight fire with fire. Massively overcharging him and pushing so hard to convict him was political, obviously. They were going after bigger concepts - self-defense and 2A, normalizing "protestor" violence. If Kyle was convicted, the impact of this case would be felt nationwide. Use their rules against them. Use CGM process as a way to highlight Constitutional rights, 2A, self-defense, and right of people to defend themselves without waiting for government to save them. No more mild sweet reasonable discussions - match them (except we use legal methods).

"Burrow testified Parker was accused of hitting a person with a skateboard, causing a head injury that required a metal plate in the victim’s head. The sexual assault conviction was the result of a plea agreement on an original charge of rape involving a 13-year-old girl when Parker was 19. A 9-hour standoff with law enforcement led to the weapons charge, Burrow said."

https://www.yahoo.com/news/man-convicte ... 30168.html

Imagine that, having your head bludgeoned by a blunt force object like a skateboard can cause grave bodily injury, and yet the news media tried to downplay this very same type of attack against Rittenhouse and say he had no right to shoot in self defense.

U of AZ students (a communist student group, of course) demand Rittenhouse be expelled and banned from campus; he's enrolled online.
