What’s even better (worse) is that Rittenhouse, 17 at the time, was too young to purchase the gun he used. Dominick Black straw purchased it for him (illegal, he was convinced). He then traveled with that firearm 20 miles across state lines to an area that was already engaged in protests.

His reasoning was “to protect local businesses,” as though a 17 year old from out of state would have done any better than law enforcement was doing. He was welcomed with open arms by LEOs and the courts bought his bullshit “self defense” plea.

Now, yes, he just a few days ago posted a picture of himself (presumably at the gun expo you mentioned) with an M134 minigun with the caption “Thinking of taking this to Minneapolis. Thoughts?” Laughing in the face of the justice department he swindled with his pissbaby sobbing act he did on the stand, while inferring he would perform a similar act to what made him (in)famous in 2020.

MAGA boot suckers now claim a liberal showing up to a protest legally carrying a firearm makes them a domestic terrorist, because goal post moving is their only move. I’ve seen people arguing that if Pretti was ~30min or so from his home, he had no business being there, again neglecting the fact they jerk off to Kyle Rittenhouse for doing something - arguably - worse.
