They are recruiting violent felons as their shock troops.

If their shock troops can be cut down without repercussions it is going to have a dampening effect on their recruiting.

“Was the threat that he faced something that made using deadly force reasonable?”

Yes.

Self-defense in Wisconsin is about imminent threat. You have to fear, to use deadly force, that someone is gonna really hurt you, serious bodily injury or death.”

Uh, well, yes, that's exactly what Rittenhouse faced.

Chris tries to speak for all those mothers whose armed, wayward sons are on the streets holding up people, stores, businesses and the like. He’s trying to suggest that although they wave their guns around, we don’t have the right—lest we be raciss— or trigger-happy, or whatever other accusation they can think of, to use lethal force against Barak Obama’s imaginary young sons. You know, like Trayvon Martin, whom George Zimmerman justifiably killed.

The tens of thousands of victims actually killed in such confrontations were not available for comment.

[What a total elitist Marxism-covering idiot that Chris is!]

How the F does Fredo still have a job after colluding with his brother the sex offender?

Are you kidding me? He probably got promoted. ;-)

Actually I think you got it right, Chris Cuomo is siding with the white pedophile instead of the kid being attacked. Tells you a lot about Chris

The democrats need to protect their rent-a-mobs at any cost. How can we keep our violent arsonist mobs safe if people are armed where we want to burn $hit down?

CNN has armed security who will shoot dead anybody who tries to hit Cuomo in the head with a skateboard.

they are attacking the concept of self defense. it is a warning to anyone else who might think about defending themselves against the LEFT.

no dissent. resistance is futile.

“More people need to be armed and we need to fight like ...”

Yes, and for a new reason: our police forces are being neutered.

Why do these Marxists have it in for this kid? Maybe they are upset a pedophile was killed? And what's with Joe Scarborough calling it racist when all involved are white? Are they at that point now?

Because they know that Antifa and BLM are cowardly punks.

Antifa and BLM will riot, burn, and loot PROVIDED they are not at risk. This is why they mostly confine their rioting to areas where the Democrat power structure will protect them from prosecution and imprisonment, and police have been ordered to not interfere with them (or actively protect them)

If, suddenly, they perceive themselves to be at risk from deadly force by private citizens, the game suddenly stops being fun, and many will stop showing up (or demand serious payment).

This is why the Deep State must destroy Kyle, to make an example of him.

939.48 Self-defense and defense of others.

(1) A person is privileged to threaten or intentionally use force against another for the purpose of preventing or terminating what the person reasonably believes to be an unlawful interference with his or her person by such other person. The actor may intentionally use only such force or threat thereof as the actor reasonably believes is necessary to prevent or terminate the interference. The actor may not intentionally use force which is intended or likely to cause death or great bodily harm unless the actor reasonably believes that such force is necessary to prevent imminent death or great bodily harm to himself or herself.

Can I bash a skateboard over this a-hole’s head and see if he thinks it might kill him?

To successfully claim self-defense, the defendant must prove four elements.

First, with exceptions, the defendant must prove that he or she was confronted with an unprovoked attack.

Second, the defendant must prove that the threat of injury or death was imminent.

Third, the defendant must prove that the degree of force used in self-defense was objectively reasonable under the circumstances.

Fourth, the defendant must prove that he or she had an objectively reasonable fear that he or she was going to be injured or killed unless he or she used self-defense.

Why do these Marxists have it in for this kid?

Because, he showed everyone how to handle the violent leftists foot soldiers of the Marxist revolution that is taking place. Instead of taking a beating, and possibly being killed, he fought back. To make matters worse, he used a gun.
