why is Rittenhouse on trial...and not the surviving rioter?
The Mayor and District Attorney of Kenosha are both brothers, and they decided to lynch Kyle Rittenhouse so they could blame the entire riot as a conspiracy of White Supremacist militias. They spent months trying to say that the violence in the summer of 2020 was really done by White Supremacists, and that Antifa didn't exist.
He is a political prisoner and persecuted for being a model citizen.
