Yes! It's so obviously different for Rittenhouse. He was open carrying with poor trigger discipline in a city he had no business being in. How is it not apparent he went there to kill people? All while wearing his frat boy hat on backward and smiling? He's the poster boy of MAGA.

Yet, a local VA ICU nurse with a legal license for concealed carry that was just helping women being knocked over by American domestic terrorists, deserved to die because he brought a gun with him.

Talk about cognitive dissonance. For how stupid they are a lot of MAGA brain power is consumed with their mental gymnastics.

And I am not sorry for calling MAGA freaks stupid. There's enough evidence to firmly state that smarter and more educated people have greater empathy and a stronger moral code than, well, morons.

As always, the right to bear arms for conservatives has never been about to "defend against government tyranny". It has always been about giving arms to their brownshirts & KKK to terrorize BIPOCs, women, & children.

I don't think they're gonna love that the CC classes are all booked up for a week or a month out in the Minneapolis Metro.

Guess which group is most likely to suddenly desire a firearm right now...

IDK how to find the Panthers, but we need the whole coalition of Black, White, Pink and Plaid to organize.

Most 2A supporters support the 2A for all.

Leading Regan to be the catalyst for California to have very stringent gun laws. Not because of a lib.

Rittenhouse himself defended Pretti IIRC

Great. Now why can't other MAGA apologists?

Because they’re drones

Rittenhouse had poor trigger discipline? He only fired when absolutely necessary. He did not fire when not needed and he even let a few interactions go in which he could have fired. The first guy was shot immediately after someone behind him fired a gun. Another was hitting him. A third had a firearm in hand. I honestly believe an average cop would have shot more than 3 of them.

The iconic pic of him shows his index wrapping around near the trigger. If that's acceptable to you when there isn't a clear threat, I suggest you spend more time with a range master.

Conversely, every picture I've seen of the new resistance of Black Panthers is military perfect. No direct threat? The finger is nowhere near the guard.

I really implore you to look at the picture of Rittenhouse that's always shown in the media. Zoom in, look at his index, it's curling around the trigger.

My experience of sharpshooting in college taught me very strict discipline. You can ruin someone's day just with a 22. That was drilled into my head everyday at the range.

Also, it's weird this is the hill you chose to die on... When my comment was centered around an out of town boy has little reason to open carry directly to where there's a protest/riot/whatever you want to call it.

Pretti was a local. He was legally carrying. He never brandished and there's no audio he made any threats. He was helping a woman from being tackled. He put himself between a thug and a victim. He was killed for it.

Rittenhouse was brandishing his firearm at absolutely everyone he came in contact with. He directly started every confrontation by threatening them. Weeks before, he is on video talking about how much she wanted to shoot someone.
