The NBA is probably protesting until criminals stop resisting arrest. Just my guess.

Nothing quite speaks to white privilege and black oppression like some black dude running his head...While making $14,000,000 a year.

How much money do these athletes make from shoes being made by slave labor in China?

CNN currently has at least two stories headlined with shocked outrage at how the right is encouraging and condoning mob violence.

Kid ought to walk, just for cleaning up the gene pool.

Open carry is permitted in Wisconsin, if you're 18 years old.

He is 17, so that's a problem for him.

So he’s facing hard time? I wonder if they’ll try him as an adult.

That's a misdemeanor, by the way.

That’s if you don’t use it.

Yes. NRO has an interesting analysis of the story, with video of timeline.

Last paragraphs:

Rittenhouse is already a hero to some and a supervillain to others; in that sense, he is the Bernie Goetz of 2020. The highest charge against him strikes me as a stretch, but beyond that I don’t have any bold opinions yet. The outcome for each shooting will depend on whether Rittenhouse reasonably feared for his life, which in turn might depend on broader context we lack thus far — and even if all three shootings were justified, there are still firearms and reckless-endangerment charges for him to contend with.

Where the f*** were this kid’s parents?
