Many Conservatives and Anti Riot advocates as well as gun enthusiasts appear to have seen Rittenhouse as having only defended himself, yet the BLM supporting rage mob had labeled the 17 year old from IL a White Supremacist Killer. Ultimately a jury will decide but there are many videos to look at and a court of public opinion which is causing an uproar between the left and right.
Fox News host Tucker Carlson talked about Rittenhouse last night. Tucker didn’t hold back his opinion on the matter, even with the left pushing back on him and his advertisers try to cancel the host. During his show Carlson states “So are we really surprised that looting and arson accelerated to murder. How shocked are we that 17 year olds with rifles decided they had to maintain order when no one else would.”
Every time Tucker Carlson trends on this dumpster fire of a website, it's because he's being completely correct.pic.twitter.com/jAYeE66IEd

In a tweet House Rep. Ayanna Pressley called 17 year old Kyle Rittenhouse a White Supremacist and a domestic terrorist. Pressley’s tweet reads: “A 17 year old white supremacist domestic terrorist drove across state lines, armed with an AR 15.
He shot and killed 2 people who had assembled to affirm the value, dignity, and worth of Black lives.
Fix your damn headlines.”

Fix your damn headlines.
As we reported earlier Rittenhouse was arrested yesterday and charged with first degree homicide, while many people have seen it as self defense. Even many of the most milquetoast conservatives appear to be defending Rittenhouse which is clear to be one of the most historical left and right dichotomies in American history. Rogan O’Handley put out some tweets in defense of Rittenhouse.
Kyle Rittenhouse is not a white supremacist or a domestic terrorist
— Rogan O’Handley ???????? (@DC_Draino) August 27, 2020
He’s a guy that saw a nearby city under siege and stepped up to help save it
He killed a convicted pedo that was attacking him w/a molotov cocktail
He shot a felon’s arm that was trying to shoot him
FREE KYLE
I defended the Covington kids when it wasn’t popular and now I’m doing the same for Kyle Rittenhouse
— Rogan O’Handley ???????? (@DC_Draino) August 27, 2020
Why?
Because the truth is always worth defending, especially in the face of a violent mob#FreeKyleRittenhouse

Well known defamation lawyer L. Lin Wood has decided to help Rittenhouse. Lin Wood was the lead attorney representing Nicholas Sandmann who was slandered by the media, He also represented Richard Jewell who was accused in the 1996 Olympic park bombing. Dan Rather dubbed him with the title “attorney for the damned”.
Twitter user @TraciAnnCooper2 asked Wood in a tweet “@LLinWood Are you ready? Your contry is calling” he responded to the with “I hear you. I am ready. ALL need to be on the ready. I will do what I can but we must ALL do whatever we can to #FightBack. This is going to get worse before it gets better. We are ALL in this together. Pray for Kyle Rittenhouse. Pray for our country.”

It appears Lin Wood has been working with Michelle Malkin to help assemble a compete defense counsel for Rittenhouse.
In touch with some great people in effort to get Kyle Rittenhouse competent defense counsel. @michellemalkin is an American hero.
— Lin Wood (@LLinWood) August 27, 2020
The line in the sand has been crossed. If Kyle cannot defend himself under the circumstances shown in videos, we are all at risk.
Think about it.
My colleague at #FightBack Foundation John Pierce has assembled legal team to defend Kyle Rittenhouse. They need to be retained by Rittenhouse family so we need family contact info. They are prepared to fly out tonight. Please DM contact info to me or John at @CaliKidJMP.

THANK YOU, Lin, John and #FightBack. Patriots, please share my Facebook alert as well. The clock is ticking for Kyle. Need all hands on deck. https://t.co/EvZWAZP3Yr

Many have made the case that Kyle was only there to help defend business from looting and rioting. In the nights before the shooting much destruction was done. A car dealership was burned down along with 50 cars, a universalist church with a Black Lives Matter sign in front of their building was also burned during the rioting. What ended up happening though, was tragic all around and hopefully for Rittenhouse, the self defense claim holds up, although the court of public opinion will be perpetually harsh no matter what.
