'He does not deserve to have his entire life destroyed'


College Republicans at Arizona State University are raising money for the teen suspected of killing two people and injuring another at a protest in Kenosha, Wis., this week.

"Half of all funds collected this semester for Republicans United will be donated to 17-year-old Kyle Rittenhouse legal defense fund," a tweet by the group said Thursday. "He does not deserve to have his entire life destroyed because of the actions of violent anarchists during a lawless riot."

Kyle Rittenhouse, a 17-year-old from Illinois, has been accused of shooting and killing 26-year-old Anthony Huber and 36-year-old Joseph Rosenbaum in Kenosha.

Rittenhouse was formally charged with intentional homicide, one count of attempted first-degree intentional homicide and two counts of first-degree reckless endangerment. He was taken into custody Wednesday to face those charges in Wisconsin.

It'll be ruined by the actions of a moronic wanna-be-militia, Trump-humping, racist, piece of human garbage...aka Kyle Rittenhouse.

Sadly, several other lives were also ruined, and or ended by the same.

anybody with a criminal record, or just these two people?

"He does not deserve to have his entire life destroyed because of the actions of violent anarchists during a lawless riot."

Uh... Rittenhouse was one of the violent anarchists involved in that lawless riot.

... And that George Floyd should have expected to be killed because he was in front of that store.

That is, black men who are just in public just have to accept that they'll get arrested and/or killed, while a white man with a gun who just shot 3 people should not even be stopped by the police. "Self defense!"

Hitting a girl. Progressives on-campus should find that video and rub it in the College Republicans’ faces.

.Pierce Bainbridge lawyers and Lin Wood who represented Covington high schools Nickolas Sandmann.

Lawyers planning to defend the suspected Kenosha gunman run a right-wing organization that brings 'lawsuits to stop the lies and smears of the radical left'

Wood said on Twitter that the #FightBack Foundation is planning to fund Rittenhouse's defense team.
