I watched part of the trial. I'm not one to blindly accept Hollywood's and the mainstream media's rush to judgment in everything!

In all angles of the video and drone footage I saw, his life was being threatened and lastly by a guy who admitted pointing his gun at Rittenhouse before Kyle shot him. Reasonable doubt was all they had to have.

Because he was innocent of all charges, and the left were just trying to destroy him, from MSM all the way to Biden the Puppet.

Rittenhouse stepped up to help his father. Biden and the rest of the Democrats caused this problem of civil unrest in the first place.

Regardless of whether or not he should have been carrying a weapon, the videos clearly shows these people were attacking him and he defended himself

I do not see how anyone could find him guilty. He was doing good and we need more of that.

This is the expected outcome, because of the way the system is currently set up.

It was very bias and I believe it was a set up with having this particular judge. It’s plainly wrong on all levels.

He is a murder and the judge is racist in many ways. This case needs to be retried and that judge should be disbarred!!!!

This boy did not belong in a civil unrest in the first place. This was vigilante behavior that we have no place for in our society.

That lie was also proven to be a lie and nothing but a lie at the trial. Innocent of all charges.

Because he traveled to another state armed with a gun he could have stayed home. He is 17years old has no business with that kind of a gun, he must have intended to use it.

Unlike Darrell E Brooks Jr., who killed five and injured 40 others. right now MSM is trying to figure out how to blame Trump for this, and get Brooks exonerated.

The fact there is not already one or any attempt at common sense enforcement speaks volumes in it's own right. Maybe we need another department and a 10 year study.......

We used to have government funded mental institutions that would have handled this, but Reagan handed this off to the states who didn't have the money to continue funding.

If the City passes this, the homeless will not go away. They will move into the surrounding neighborhoods. Your children will step over the homeless as they walk to school and you will hear screaming all night long..
