I'm sympathetic to BLM and I don't think Rittenhouse should have been there with a gun.

But calling what was going on in Kenosha a "civil rights protest" makes you look foolish. It was rioting and looting. The kid did not go to some daytime march and shoot people carrying signs. He was LARPing as a security guard because people were torching businesses.

Opinion is divided so much already... if you want to convince anyone to join your side who isn't already there, you have to have your facts straight and be honest about what happened.
