I don't get any paywall.

The Illinois teenager accused of fatally shooting multiple people during a protest that turned violent in Kenosha, Wisconsin, earlier this year said during a jailhouse interview he fired his gun in self-defense.

“I feel I had to protect myself,” Kyle Rittenhouse said during the interview, reported the Washington Post. “I would have died that night if I didn’t.”

Rittenhouse was seen on video with a rifle during a night of unrest in Kenosha on Aug. 25 following the police-involved shooting of Jacob Blake, who had resisted arrest, a few days earlier.

The 17-year-old from Antioch has been accused of fatally shooting two people and wounding a third person after he traveled to the protests in Kenosha to protect businesses from being looted, his mother, Wendy Rittenhouse, previously said.

Oh, lol, I have all "youmaker.com" domains blocked, and that is apparently what they use to serve the paywall js.

You could block those via Little Snitch or /etc/hosts, or just try disabling javascript for that page.

Kyle Rittenhouse Says He ‘Would Have Died’ During Riot, Fired Rifle to Protect Himself


The Illinois teenager accused of fatally shooting multiple people during a protest that turned violent in Kenosha, Wisconsin, earlier this year said during a jailhouse interview he fired his gun in self-defense.

“I feel I had to protect myself,” Kyle Rittenhouse said during the interview, reported the Washington Post. “I would have died that night if I didn’t.”

Rittenhouse was seen on video with a rifle during a night of unrest in Kenosha on Aug. 25 following the police-involved shooting of Jacob Blake, who had resisted arrest, a few days earlier.

The 17-year-old from Antioch has been accused of fatally shooting two people and wounding a third person after he traveled to the protests in Kenosha to protect businesses from being looted, his mother, Wendy Rittenhouse, previously said.

Rittenhouse had his bond set at $2 million on Nov. 2 and is facing up to life in prison if convicted for multiple charges that include first-degree intentional homicide for killing 26-year-old Anthony Huber and first-degree reckless homicide in the death of 36-year-old Joseph Rosenbaum.

In addition to two first-degree homicide charges, he is also charged with attempted homicide in the first-degree for injuring Gaige Grosskreutz with his rifle.

The 19-year-old owner of the firearm used by Rittenhouse has been identified as Dominick David Black. He was charged earlier this month with two felony counts of intentionally selling a gun to a minor. His bail was set at $2,500.

According to a criminal complaint, Rittenhouse shot the two men after they ran at him and another who approached him while holding a gun. Erich Pratt, senior vice president of the Gun Owners of America, pointed to the videos and said in a statement that “it appears” Rittenhouse “was acting in self-defense.”

Rittenhouse’s attorney, Lin Wood, also previously told Fox News that video footage of the incident proves that Rittenhouse is innocent.

“The evidence is overwhelming,” he said on Oct. 13. “There’s not one iota of evidence that he did anything except defend himself.”

Friends and family of the deceased said they were working to protect others from Rittenhouse.

“Self-defense, that’s impossible,” Huber’s father, John Huber said during a video hearing earlier this month. “He had already killed a guy and tried to run. My son was a hero. He tried to stop him. He was a hero. Anyone who says otherwise is dead wrong.”

Rittenhouse’s next scheduled court appearance is set for Dec. 3.

I was worried about my personal safety so I had my mom drive me to a war zone filled with rioting negroes and arsonist anarchists!


I think when he started worrying about his personal safety is right at the time he was attacked by rioters.

And there’s no question that he would have been killed or very badly injured that night if he didn’t protect himself.

he went there to protect his community. When criminals came and attacked, he fought back. That's the more accurate version.

I know this goes against the left wing media, but maybe BLM should chill out on burning the cities down.

What "war zone"? What "zombies"? The TV said it was a peaceful protest filled with beautiful, kind people.

lol right. also it was just a mostly peaceful altercation by lamestream media standards. Why is everybody huffing and puffing and ordering the poor kid to court. Compared to waht the lamestream media has been calling peaceful there's really nothing to see here.

They need to plead his case down, and play the stupid kid card, he's facing serious charges, he's doing time no matter what. He would have done better to maim his victims.

LOL, he's being overcharged and this shit won't fly in court. Prosecution is trying to play dumb with "the pedophile only trew a plastic bag at him" but it fools nobody: empty plastic bags don't fucking fly like that.
If I were a juror I would take it as a personal insult to my intelligence.

The kid walks. It's fucking Zim covfefe all over again.

Firstly, not easy to do when you’re being attacked. Secondly, if you shoot to maim it isn’t self defense, it’s assault or attempted murder and you will 100% go to jail.

The only time it is legally permissible to shoot someone is to protect your life or someone else’s. In that case you must aim center mass and pull the trigger. Aiming for a leg or something:

1. Indicates you weren’t in fear for your life, since most people in the process of being murdered don’t take the time to fire warning shots.
2. Indicates you are reckless since you are much more likely to miss a leg shot and wind up hitting whoever is standing behind your target.

even closer than most people think: Rittenhouse is another white Hispanic, just like Zimmerman. Interesting I have not heard that in MSM, perhaps media are biased and RACIST!

Nope. No jury would convict him after they see what happened in detail. Best the prosecution could hope for is a hung jury. That jury will hang or acquit every time.

Fact: Many Hispanics marry White, have half-hispanic kids, who are more likely than not lean right and religious. You may not see this in urban CA but it's definitely the case in FL and TX. Hispanic Women like their boys to be hard working caretaker old school types of guys and Grandmas still warn their daughters not to slut it up or have kids out of wedlock or they ruin their chances of finding "a good man". They are extremely family oriented and like to own shit.

Hispanic women may replace the large numbers of implacable mentally ill White Girls as White Men's preferred partners.

most "hispanics" are white, because "hispanic" is not a race so there is overlap, huge overlap.
