Social Kyle Rittenhouse Booed off Stage at University of Memphis When Faced With Protestors

[shockaholic12]

Essentially yes.
The pedo thing is kind of irrelevant imo Kyle didn't know the guy was a kid diddler when he shot him. The situation was a fight or flight split second decision.
Personally I don't think he should be shunned for what he did.

He straw purchased a rifle, took it to a riot to be act as a vigilante, posed for pics after the shootings and then tried to convince the public he should be a celebrity for it. There's a lot more decisions he made outside of fight or flight that people are shunning him for.

I support what Kyle did that night. It was clearly self defense and a wrongful prosecution. But he is a douchebag from everything I have seen, but the idiots that get so very offended by his existence are twats as well

Why do you want a pound of his flesh so bad?

We should be utilizing free speech to have open course discussions and debates. Not to drown out people we don't agree with. This isn't a free speech law issue. It's a respect for other people and their opinions issue.

The protestors free speech is protected under the same laws that Rittenhouse's free speech is protected under but their version of free speech is not respectful, not mature and should not be defended by anyone. We should be exercising our free speech to discuss issues, not to silence others through noise and intimidation. This has happened far too often on college campuses where protestors bring in megaphones and scream at the top of their lungs so dissenting opinions cannot be heard. To me, that's wrong.

So, again, you think you should get to decide who shall benefit from free speech and who wont. That's what's wrong here.

How you came to that conclusion after reading my post is beyond me.

Rittenhouse has full access to Hot Country Redneck Vagina at any moment, I'm sure he'll get over it...

"How do you sleep at night, Mr Rittenhouse?!"

"Dick-down on a pile of Hot Country Redneck Pussy. With my AR-15 by the side of my bed, Ma'am".

Dude, if I ever shoot a kiddie-fucker, cops will need to taser me just to stop me mounting his head on my bedroom wall!

Some achievements in life are to be cherished.

Is there any evidence these protestors engaged in intimidation or is this you just deciding that was what they were doing so you can try to curtail their free speech rights to the benefit of Turning Point USA?

George Carlin once said that rights aren't rights when they can be taken away.

I've seen enough left wing protestors to know that they absolutely engage in intimidation. Maybe they did or didn't in Rittenhouse's case but they have a history of doing it and will continue to in the future.

I don't even know what you're arguing. I basically said free speech should be used for open dialog and discussions and you're arguing with me about it for some strange reason.

Your bias really has no bounds. In the future, if a situation arises where the Proud Boys or some other right wingers show up to a left winger's speech and drown them out, I'll be sure to find you right there in that thread defending the right winger's right to free speech. Right? Because you are a staunch defender of free speech, no matter who it involves and you would never be biased toward certain groups or a certain political affiliation. You would never cherry pick certain situations and defend them based on partisanship. Not you Andy, you're fair and balanced.

 

[Mr Holmes]

Sure, but that's missing the point, he was free to be there but he was unqualified for the role he wanted to play and was illegally armed. Most of the people praising him were politically opposed to the protests and want to use him as a poster boy to push their ideological beliefs.

I suppose when you're a commie rioter and you create lawlessness you might invite unqualified people to oppose you. Most of the people hating on him is because of ideological beliefs.

LMAO @ my bias when you double down on your stupidity with a claim that you don't even have to witness what protestors are doing to label them as intimidating.

Exactly. It's just like the George Zimmerman shit.

You can be an asshole, you still have the right to defend yourself if you're attacked.

The modern left are children and think if they declare you a bad guy, they have the right to just attack you without consequences.

That's not how it works.

If you're talking and someone is angrily yelling at you, that can be considered intimidation.

I have no issues with the guy who raised his hand to ask a question and was handed a mic to ask questions. I have issues with people in the crowd yelling and screaming at him while on stage to drown him out or intimidate him. I don't condone that kind of behavior. You do as long as your side is doing it. Like I said, if we have an instance where the tables are turned, I'll be sure to see you defending the other side's right to free speech in that thread.

But we all know you won't be. I'll be in that very thread saying that the proud boys or whoever need to stfu and let people talk, regardless of what they're opinion is. That's because my brain hasn't been rotted by partisanship.

He was politically prosecuted and essentially faced the jeopardy of life imprisonment. He was also a further victim of a mass defamation campaign by the media.

It's hard to think of someone more deserving of cashing in on his fame.

Winning a defamation case should be satisfaction enough. What he did doesn't make him a hero. It just makes him lucky that he survived and that the right decision was decided on his case. After a point it starts to look like the glorification of having taken lives.

You made that up. Fuck off if you can't argue your point honestly.

Screaming at him to drown him out while police outside have to keep people from becoming disorderly.

This is what you defend Andy. This is just good old fashioned defendable behavior in your opinion. Like I said, we'll see if you defend it when it's the other side pulling the same bullshit.

When did he win a defamation case?

Proving defamation in law is extremely difficult against news organizations.

I thought I told you to fuck off. You said, "You do as long as your side is doing it."

I didn't condone anything, you tool. I didn't express an opinion one way or another of their behavior because I'm not making any claims of fact and I'm not giving the makers of the video any clicks to make money off of. Especially the NY Post ROFL

You just used one dumb assumption about me to justify another dumb assumption in order to back your shitty opinions but I am the one who is biased

Get bent.

The debate tactic you're using here is so lame. "I'm not condoning their behavior, I'm just arguing with people who don't condone their behavior". As if you're neutral or something lol. Get bent with your dishonesty. Anyone can see right through this schtick. You're as biased as it gets around here.

 

[LangfordBarrow]

So he shoots a pedo in self defense and a lot of americans are so upset because of it they'll harm the business of whoever hires him?

interesting.

If he wasn't a far right conspiracy theorist before he is now. They're the ones glorifying his actions and showing him support as an impressionable youth. As @Your Salad said he might as well take advantage of the situation to make some money for the notoriety he's earned.
