Kyle Rittenhouse’s sister Faith is seeking $3,000 on a crowdfunding website in a bid to prevent the eviction of herself and her mother Wendy from their home, citing her “brother’s unwillingness to provide or contribute to our family.”

    I mean, maybe? But other than wild speculation, is there any evidence?

    Fucking /s because those of you that don’t get it are dumb enough to think The Boys got all anti-you all of a sudden too.

      Dude, you absolutely need the /s on this one. There are people who authentically say this. And they read your comment thinking you and the upvoters all support that same belief too

      He did drive up to Ohio to shoot people.

      those of you that don’t get it are dumb

      I wish I didn’t know people who would say that shit entirely unironically.

        Not defending him, but it was Wisconsin, in a city less than 30 minutes from where he lived, barely across state lines.

        This case is fucked in so many ways, and it’s even worse because nobody remembers any of the details right.

        lmao you don’t even have the state right.

        He went there to shoot people

        Yeah, that’s why he showed up and did zero non-benevolent things for hours, and then when a maniac literally screamed a death threat at him (in response to Rittenhouse putting out a dumpster fire he started), his immediate reaction was to run away.

        Literally the only people shot by Rittenhouse that day were people who tried to kill him, and then DIDN’T LET HIM run away when he tried to flee, which was his consistent first reaction to all aggression directed at him. Everyone who got shot CHASED him when he fled, cornered him, and then tried to murder him, forcing him to use his weapon to save his own life.

        Those are the facts.

        I’m glad I don’t know anyone dumb enough to unironically claim he intended to shoot people. There is so much publicly available evidence, it’s frankly secondhand embarrassing to see, even online.

          Unless everyone after the first shooting had all that context, they were just standing their ground against a murdering fuck stick

            Yes they would have been justified if their impression was right, but it wasn’t

            they were just standing their ground

            Literally the opposite of the truth, lmao. They didn’t “stand their ground”, they CHASED Kyle as he ran away! And that was after they accosted him while he was running TOWARD the police line, to report what happened with the first attacker.
