The Post Millennial on Twitter - "Gaige Grosskreutz goes on CNN and claims his arms were raised when he was shot by Kyle Rittenhouse, contradicting his sworn testimony."
Steven Crowder on Twitter - "If you accuse Kyle Rittenhouse of “faking tears” from being forced to relive the trauma of having to shoot violent, armed child-rapists and arsonists, but claim PTSD from being called the wrong pronouns … you might be an asshole."
Meme - "Kyle shouldn't have been there that night, but protesters could..."
"He went looking for trouble. Despite no evidence of him doing so, we know his intentions were to provoke others..."
"Protestors had the right to commit arson (illegal), but Kyle didn't have the right to put out the fires (not against the law)..."
"He is a terrorist for shooting his "mostly peaceful" attackers!"
The Meme Policeman - Posts | Facebook - "The anti-Rittenhouse memes are legion and continue to spread disinformation, getting basic facts of the case wrong. It was one thing to get it wrong right after the fact when there was lots of confusion, but to make some of these claims now is willful deception.
Rittenhouse did NOT carry his rifle across state lines. The rifle was purchased and stored by a friend in Wisconsin, it never left the state and it wasn’t illegal. This has been known at least since Oct. 13 of last year, when the Antioch Police Dept and Illinois state’s attorney completed their investigation and declined to prosecute.
Still, in almost every social media comment section about the case you’ll see this claim made. It’s stunning how widespread it is, yet FB and other social media outlets seem to have no interest in dispelling it. At this point, it’s clearly defamation.
This meme’s claim that Rittenhouse didn’t know who owned the property he was protecting is also false. First, his father, grandmother, aunt, uncle and cousins all lived in Kenosha. It wasn’t some random place he decided to “cross state lines” to visit.
He met the owners of Car Source early in the day, a business that was a victim of the prior day’s riots. They had 3 lots they were concerned about protecting. They exchanged phone numbers with Rittenhouse.
Later, he met up with the owners. They thanked him for coming out to help and asked Rittenhouse to hop in their car. Which he did, and they drove him to one of their lots they wanted protected.
While there, the owners even gave Rittenhouse’s group the keys to the business, along with showing them where the power washers, hoses and fire extinguishers were in case they needed to put out any fires, along with the ladders to get on the roof. They left grateful and returned to another lot.
This is all known to anyone who actually watched the trial. As is the overall context, which this meme and so many others completely omit."
Jury instruction may clear Kyle Rittenhouse on gun possession charge - "The judge in the Kyle Rittenhouse trial on Friday said he'll instruct the jury that unless the state proved the teen's AR-15-style rifle had an unlawfully short barrel, he can't be convicted of being a minor in possession of a firearm. No such evidence was introduced, so it seems likely Rittenhouse will be acquitted on the one charge that seemed obvious to everyone but his lawyers who challenged it from the very start. It might not even get to the jury."
Meme - "Kyle is literally a Saint
Guys I'm not even religious, but how can this be anything other than divine intervention?
>Shoots a pedo in the dick
>Shoots a burgler in the arm
>Shoots a wife strangler in the lungs
Also: The guy who tries to kill him is named Grosskreutz, literally "big cross". Kyle literally defeated the cross, like Jesus did.
Kyle is from Antioch, which was part of the holy land in the crusades.
If you google "St. Kyle" there is a catholic saint which is also named Kyle that is called Saint Kennocha of Fife.
>Kennocha
>Kenosha
Also he cleared a malfunction in his gun and shot the bungler in the arm in under 2 seconds literally 1 second before being executed, all while on the ground and whilest turning around. Kyle is a good shot but that was a literal impossible shot.
Furthermore, after defending himself he gets up and walks away with his back turned towards the evil mob and noone dares to harm him. Someone was protecting him from above.
This can't all be a coincidence..."

Campus Reform | UPDATE: Rittenhouse no longer enrolled in ASU Online ahead of protest demanding the 'violent blood-thirsty murderer' be removed - "Arizona State University students are pressuring the administration to “withdraw” Kyle Rittenhouse from the school’s online program, calling him a “violent blood-thirsty murderer”... Despite the not-guilty verdict, leftist students at ASU continue to slander Rittenhouse as a “racist murderer”. A Change.org petition started by ASU students to remove Rittenhouse from the school refers to his attackers as "victims" and calls for him to "pay for his crimes". Echoing this sentiment, Students for Socialism at ASU announced an upcoming protest against Rittenhouse on Twitter, with demands attached."

"They're basically just coming down here hunting innocent Orcs." Indeed, Magobblegon produced reliable witnesses who claim Rohan had been collaborating with a Dúnedain ranger who uttered the slur, "Let's hunt some Orc," though others claim this account is apocryphal and is not reflected in the earliest accounts of the ranger's exploits... "Rohan shouldn't have been there in the first place," said GNN reporter Borin Storrter. "King Theoden had no business being across state lines armed with a spear. If he had only minded his own business, as our GNN analyst Wormtongue advised, all those innocent Orcs would still be alive.""

I hope someone takes Rittenhouse out on public television as soon as he walks free from this fake ass mock trial. You cannot be right wing and be a good person. You have had a fucking decade ish to care enough about other people existing to figure out what I mean, so I'm not even going to explain it to you. If Rittenhouse walks, I hope that city burns."

While running from a crowd of people, Rittenhouse tripped and fell. During this moment, Jump Kick Man allegedly ran up and stomped on the then 17-year-old's head... Jump Kick Man is a 40-year-old black male from Kenosha, Wisconsin. His name has been withheld "as he has not been criminally charged in connection with the Rittenhouse case"... The man has a criminal record that dates back decades, including felony convictions for car theft, drug possession, ID theft, and escaping custody."

Author faces backlash for book claiming Rittenhouse killed 'two Black men' while waging 'race war' - "University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) professor and author Kara Cooney faced backlash Wednesday over a passage of her newly released book, "The Good Kings," that falsely claims Kyle Rittenhouse shot two Black men. In her book, Cooney asks readers to "consider 17-year-old Kyle Rittenhouse, who used his semi-automatic weapon to kill two Black men in Kenosha, Wisconsin, while waging a glorious race war on behalf of his inherited White power... Cooney received heavy backlash from social media users, who questioned her fact-checking and research for the book, leading her to acknowledge the error. "On p. 341 of THE GOOD KINGS I state that Kyle Rittenhouse shot two Black men when instead he shot two white men," Cooney wrote on Twitter Wednesday. "That was my mistake, and I apologize. The response has been a hateful stew of ridicule and denial that America has a race problem at all." Cooney said in her response that the aggressive and nasty feedback she's received over the factual errors was a symptom of White supremacy and misogyny, calling the Rittenhouse passage a "tiny detail of the book.""
Kyle Rittenhouse can't use his own name for online gaming because it may "harm others" - "Kyle Rittenhouse has apparently been canceled for using his own name as his gaming account username.

Rittenhouse Judge Under Police Protection After Receiving Hundreds Of Threatening Messages - "The judge has a reputation for being so stern on sentencing that many defendants request a different jurist at the outset. But he also has a reputation for staunchly defending the rights of the defendants throughout the trial."
The exploitation of Kyle Rittenhouse is bad for everyone - "All the peripheral questions, concerns, and debates – things like, "should he have been there," or "why does a 17-year-old have a weapon like that," or "those are fake tears he's crying," or "what did he think was going to happen," or the weirdest of them all, "why did he cross state lines" – were ultimately irrelevant to the question of whether he murdered those two men on the streets of Kenosha, Wisconsin. I should hasten to add that the charge from the Rittenhouse defenders that the two men he killed were violent criminals, one a child rapist, was also immaterial to the core question of whether the young man committed murder that night. In a world without cell phone cameras, drone video, and social media, perhaps some could be left to wonder whether the impartial jury had all the facts. But we don't live in such a world, and every piece of presented evidence, including the testimony of the third man shot by Rittenhouse that night, bore down heavily on the side of legal, permissible, justifiable self-defense. For all its faults, the American legal system worked as it should in finding Rittenhouse not guilty... This is a now 18-year-old young man who undoubtedly has some serious psychological scarring to work through. Anyone who believes that his tears were real should recognize that the taking of another human life, no matter how justified it may have been, is not something that just blends in to the minutia of a person's daily existence. Someone who has experienced that kind of trauma doesn't need celebration, they need counseling... Why Howard, who markets himself as a preacher and campaigner against spiritual abuse, would abuse the truth in such a galling and flagrant way is curious if only because video evidence lays waste to his bizarre description of the two men killed. Anthony Huber and Joseph Rosenbaum were not "marching in a Black Lives Matter protest." They were participating in a street riot, before pursuing and attempting to murder Kyle Rittenhouse. This is the type of divisive rhetoric powered by a racial tribalism that is exceedingly unhealthy for our society. It isn't advocating healing, it's fueling hatred. It's not promoting justice, it's profiting off division. Which is the other reason why the exaltation and idolizing of Rittenhouse is such a bad idea. Beyond the callous message it sends and the damage it does to what will be a lifelong struggle for Kyle's own pursuit of a normal life, it provides unnecessary fodder for race-baiters and merchants of discord"
