Kyle Rittenhouse abruptly departed the stage during an appearance at the University of Memphis on Wednesday, after he was confronted about comments made by Turning Point USA founder and president Charlie Kirk.
Rittenhouse was invited by the college’s Turning Point USA chapter to speak at the campus. However, the event was met with backlash from a number of students who objected to Rittenhouse’s presence.
The 21-year-old gained notoriety in August 2020 when, at the age of 17, he shot and killed two men—Joseph Rosenbaum, 36, and Anthony Huber, 26, as well as injuring 26-year-old Gaige Grosskreutz—at a protest in Kenosha, Wisconsin.
He said the three shootings, carried out with a semi-automatic AR-15-style firearm, were in self-defense. The Black Lives Matter (BLM) protest where the shootings took place was held after Jacob Blake, a Black man, was left paralyzed from the waist down after he was shot by a white police officer.
Enjoy your five minutes hate
so far i have only gotten people agreeing with me. I dont really understand why anybody would disagree with me. He is a genuinely bad person at this point.
Which should make you very suspicious.
Disagreement is normal. A diversity of opinions is normal.
When everybody agrees so readily and hates somebody they never even met, something funny is going on.
you mean the fact that everybody agrees with me on the fact that killing people and then turning into a fucking career is a dick move?
Or the fact that his parents allowed a 17 year old to attend a protest where angry armed people are likely to be, open carrying a rifle?
I don’t have the time to unpack your witty rhetoric. Speak plainly.
It seems you don’t have time to be online then. Go do what you have to do and come back when you have the free time.
Don’t make silly demands like you’re too busy and are owed a dumbing down of old news.
so, by rhetoric, haha funny term, i use that all the time when talking about conservative politics… Anyway, you mean the very clear statements of fact that i made regarding this pretty cut and dry situation that would be hard to fudge which presumably, most people would happen to agree with my stance on?
TL;DR since im so nice and all, you’re wrong.
