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!

Lisa Gore

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.

Max

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.

Michael Leninsky

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

sheri smith

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

Steve TheBmann

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

Todd Johnson

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

Many were hoping to see Rittenhouse convicted, arguing that he came armed from his native Illinois looking for trouble in Wisconsin.

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

rich wallace

He's a killer

Kitina Parker

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

Kathy Ohaver

This man is GUILTY! HE SHOULD'VE never went there with a gun! How can he be innocent?? He killed two people. This is definitely BLIND JUSTICE!! I just don't get it! He should be behind bars. And what a FAKE. reaction to the verdict. He's GUILTY!!!🤬

Max

You're almost as funny as Alec Baldwin.

Wendi Newman

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.

Max

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

lois tyler

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.

Max

That comment was proven to be a lie at the Trial.

Jeffery Schuyler

I believe his involvement there was provocative and reckless.

Max

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.

We should not rely on other jails to take care of our problems. We have a responsibility to provide the proper facilities to our superhero police force

Max

That will be an average cost, to every single person of Boone county, of $197 per year, for 20 years. $3920. What a deal.

I would support a 10-year tax for a bond issue to build the new jail, not a new forever sales tax.

Davon Argo

The need for a new jail isn’t new. County leaders have known for years it needed attention. Maybe the sheriff should’ve prioritized a jail before a multi-million dollar training facility. His budget priorities is his attempt at railroading the city’s public safety staffing and infrastructure needs.

Madison Haleigh

I'd rather we put more money to schools to prevent there from being so many people in jail in the first place. If we fund our schools and the education system, there would be less people in jail. If we funded mental health services- there would be less people committing crimes

Harry D

Thinking like this is why the city of Columbia is short 50 police officers.

Agenda narratives always get the right amount of attention one way or another.

Harry D

We must all do our part and wear masks, only for two weeks, to flatten curve. Also, stand at least 7 feet away from each other at all times (6 feet for COVID was made up with no science so 7 feet is the new distance). Once big pharma has a vax, it will be mandatory to go to grocery store, etc.
