    So he can ignore the law and cross state lines to engage in a crime and you claim he is justified in his actions.

    I'll keep my ears open then.

    I don't think we have seen the last of incidents like this. Citizens won't continue to watch their cities burn indefinitely. If the government doesn't do its job, you will see more and more militia type groups attempt to do it.

    Thank you for digging that up about his failed attempt to join an elite American fighting force. There was a poster here who said something such as " they or we should send him to Paris Island". I responded that Kyle did not seem to have the mentality to be a combat "soldier" and that the way he acted the other night he could get himself and his squad killed. You just reinforced that fact.n

    Sad indeed that a certain element on the "internets" make killers and disturbed people such as the Kyles, the Zimmerman's, the McVeighs into heroes.

    It is if you are going to break the law.

    Somehow, social troubles and and obsession with firearms don't go well together. I think in this case we are "lucky" that only two are dead, and not 30+.

    I find it funny that you guys are posting that heavy article as some kind of "gotcha". The fact that a minor wasnt able to join the military is not any kind of "gotcha"
    But what that article does prove is that the whole thing was again started because the pedophile was trying to attack him.. completely ruins the narrative that some on here are trying to push that the kid started the whole thing.

    "McGinnis stated that before the defendant reached the parking lot and ran across it, the defendant had moved from the middle of Sheridan Road to the sidewalk and that is when McGinnis saw a male (Rosenbaum) initially try to engage the defendant. McGinnis stated that as the defendant was walking Rosenbaum was trying to get closer to the defendant. When Rosenbaum advanced, the defendant did a ‘juke’ move and started running,” according to the complaint."

    thanks again guys for helping clear up that it was antifa/blm that started the whole thing.

    No charges will stick and everyone knows it..

    Again I will cut you some slack because Im assuming your not from the US.
    But here in the US its not against the law for minors to defend themselves from pedophiles trying to attack them.

    Recruiter asked if I had felonies. I was charged at 18, not convicted. Later when I admitted to marijuana use in the past, he said I was automatically disqualified. I could have 1 or the other, but not both.

    So I quit smoking for a month with the intention of going back and denying use. Ofc same guy was there and remembered. He initiated a waiver process. I ended up talking to an officer on speakerphone a month or so after that and waiver approved.

    My guess is Trump already has a pardon waiting for them.

    So this kid, at 17, had something beyond smoking pot. A felony charge at that age would be troubling, although we might not know because of juvenile records.

    Not stupid. This will be the result when Democrat run cities and states allow Marxist rioters to loot and riot for days on end (and yes, they are armed to the teeth) without any law enforcement. That is very hard for me to understand their motive.....but I understand when armed citizens gradually begin to step in to do the job!

    Ehm ... one moment please! Only to be sure!

    Of course there are no restrictions or even border controls between the states of the USA and everyone can move freely across the complete USA. BUT ...

    There are often different laws in your 50 states ... that means: What is allowed and legal in one state can be forbidden and illegal in the neighboring state ... right?

    So if a person who lives in state "A" goes to state "B", then he this person she has to comply with any other laws of state "B" ... and then it doesn't matter whether an issue with the person at home is allowed in state A and only prohibited in B! This is the important point...

    Or he could have just been hanging out on the corner with a group of people that broke into a store but did not go in or assist in taking anything...like me.

    You're calling these cowards patriots???

    "A Pennsylvania homeowner shot a Black Lives Matter protester with a long-range rifle during a cross-country march from Milwaukee, Wisconsin to Washington DC Monday night.
    Horrifying footage captured the moment the peaceful protesters were set upon by two white men who emerged from a nearby property in Cambria County and began firing shots at the crowd.
    One man was struck by a bullet and rushed to hospital while fellow demonstrators jumped into cars and fled the scene."

    True, but i just looked and couldn't find anything in WI that states that it is illegal for minors to defend themselves from attacking pedophiles.

    The kid in question made a ill advised decision to protect businesses with his own weapon. Even with a gun he wasn't an intimidating figure and violent rioters assaulted him thinking he'd never have the nerve to shoot. They were mistaken.
    What he did was in self defense and he will walk away from this which is something a couple of his assailants won't do.

    Kyle Rittenhouse (circled) can be seen wearing a white hat in the front row of a Trump rally in Des Moines, Iowa, Jan. 30.
    [​IMG]
    "Kyle Howard Rittenhouse’s social media presence is filled with him posing with weapons, posting “Blue Lives Matter,” and supporting Trump for president. Footage from the Des Moines, Iowa, rally on Jan. 30 shows Rittenhouse feet away from the president, in the front row, to the left of the podium. He posted a TikTok video from the event."

    OK ...
    I don't know now about which attacks by which pedophiles, where self-defense is given, you are talking about ... Anyway:

    But the fact is that the person here at age 17 was illegally armed by law in all 50 states as far as I know ... at least by law in the state here and that counts first.
    And then the question arises why this underage person is illegally driving armed to another state and what the hack this person wanted to do there with what intention!
    And last but not least, there is a difference between self-defense and vigilante justice according to US law ... the latter is forbidden and a crme by US law and, taking all facts into account, this is vigilante justice here ... because what did this illegally armed person want in a strange place with what intentional intent? Just ... that's what it's about!
