his anxiety is enough. I don't want harm to come to him because he's already being made into a damned RW martyr.

May his fear follow him wherever he goes. Just as I hope it does with George Zimmerman.

when you drove him to Kenosha and dropped him off. You knew what kind of brat you were raising. You even cosplayed yourself that night. Now your kid has a target on his back and you're worried? It's at least partly your fault.

that she participated in the protests. Reality doesn't seem to agree but I haven't seen that brought up for a long time.

Similarly, people here thought Boebert's mother was at the Jan 6th riots. Sadly, there is too much bs on DU.

any of this. I am not sure where he and his mom should go at this point. A few days ago I suggested Ron Johnson go back to Russia. Maybe he could take him with. Minnesota didn't seem to want Ron back either.

They know that if the tables were turned, they'd be out there threatening him. They're just projecting their own vile selves onto the Left. That being said, I'm with everyone else here who hopes the little turd spends the rest of his life looking over his shoulder in fear, in spite of there being no actual threat to him.

Like the time he carried an illegally-obtained assault rifle across a state line, when he wasn't even old enough to drive?

It's kind of late for fake crocodile tears, Rittenhouse family.

I saw several versions of it, and some places on the Right I read are complaining that a congressman and ABC News repeated it after the verdict. I was curious so I gandered and, yep, it's appeared here, too.

"The protests from the killing of Jacob Blake . . ."

He's alive.

His fame and notoriety will overcome him as a proud boys hero and right wing celebrity.

Speaking tours and some bucks.

George Zimmerman had some repetitive events that seemed to put him in a bad light.

Free Republic is probably whining that he did not kill any black people... yet.

they are setting up a defense for the next time he kills someone.

He's scared, thus, he can kill anyone at any time, because if you are afraid*, you get to kill without consequences.

It's a get out of jail free card, as long as he doesn't kill another MAGAt.
