Arrested, tried by a jury of his peers, despite having been tried in the media, was found not guilty on all counts...like it or not that is the justice system...the left is already calling him a white racist nationalist and NOWHERE in this case were there anybody but white people...explain that...seems like nowadays when anyone disagrees from the right they are either privileges, white nationalist, or racists...that card is being overplayed. The kid was found not guilty...let it go and Biden/Harris need to do the same...quit trying to spark up embers.

Considering the environment he was in and the specific circumstances, I am impressed at how restrained he was. I am a firearms instructor and I don't think that I would function as well as Rittenhouse did. When you are attacked, you do have to act as judge, jury and attack-stopper.

I'd recommend him for Special Forces.

@Hellenbrand There was not murder. Well-aimed shots at ONLY youtr attackers when defending yourself, only shooting until the target is down or retreating, and then moving towards the police? Yeah, I'd call that restraint.

SFC Randy Hellenbrand - what a childish inappropriate statement and politics should have no role in our justice system,but unfortunately we have social justice dweebs that wish to corrupt anything to get their perceived reactions. This is the erosion of our Republic and you seem to want to dance around it’s flames of destruction!!

SSgt Joseph Baptist - considering his stated limited experience with the firearm I think this young man showed great restraint and ability to recognize true dangers and eliminate them while recognizing others as less dangerous and moving forward to safety. I’d like to see what he could do in the kill house after some training. I hope this young man can find his way into the military where I believe he’d thrive!!

SFC Randy Hellenbrand - he showed restraint by waiting until it was clear that shooting was the only resort. Shooting was indeed his last resort. Some people here seem to wish so bad that Kyle had been killed and I can't understand why. We don't wish Kyle's attackers are dead; we would have preferred they didn't attack Kyle or loot/riot/steal/etc in the first place.

Like much of the media, the author states that he has not bothered to look at the evidence, but has decided that Rittenhouse is guilty.

That is the problem of this whole debacle. The media (and Biden) was VERY quick to paint Rittenhouse as a white supremacist vigilante thug. The EVIDENCE actually showed something else. If Mr. Arcenaux had bothered to actually WATCH the trial, he would have seen the same thing, as even most MSM is now agreeing that the evidence showed rittenhouse defended himself. (They are now turning to blaming the gun - searche "Rittenhouse weapon," you'll see what I mean. If we can't blame the guy who is innocent, let's use this as a reason to attack guns.)

PFC Kimberly Staiti before you comment you should be aware of the facts. The judge ruled the illegal weapon charge was wrong based upon Wisconsin law. Teenagers 16 and older are allowed to carry weapons.

PFC Kimberly Staiti - he didn’t obtain the weapon illegally,he didn’t own the weapon. That count was dropped by the prosecutor. You seem to have it in for this kid. I bet it matters none to you that the prosecutions very own witnesses including one person he shot that admitted that the kid didn’t shoot him until he pointed his pistol at him and was a convicted felon with a rap sheet for violence yet he was never charged but I bet you think he was a hero like the prosecutor. Every individual he shot was violently attacking him and if was in “great danger of bodily harm and death”!! He was tried and found not guilty by 12 of his peers despite all the jury intimidation that was going on!!

SFC Bernard Walko feel free. I should have said, "immoral." See how confusion can affect me? Perhaps others, too?
