Kyle Rittenhouse abruptly departed the stage during an appearance at the University of Memphis on Wednesday, after he was confronted about comments made by Turning Point USA founder and president Charlie Kirk.
Rittenhouse was invited by the collegeās Turning Point USA chapter to speak at the campus. However, the event was met with backlash from a number of students who objected to Rittenhouseās presence.
The 21-year-old gained notoriety in August 2020 when, at the age of 17, heĀ shot and killed two menāJoseph Rosenbaum, 36, and Anthony Huber, 26, as well as injuring 26-year-old Gaige Grosskreutzāat a protest in Kenosha, Wisconsin.
He said theĀ three shootings, carried out with a semi-automaticĀ AR-15-style firearm, were in self-defense. TheĀ Black Lives Matter (BLM) protest where the shootings took place was held afterĀ Jacob Blake, a Black man, was left paralyzed from the waist down after he was shot by a white police officer.
Maybe people are avoiding it because it has fuck all to do with Rittenhouse.
Then just move on if you donāt see the point. The fact that everyone who has responded has blatantly misrepresented my point or asked a question back without answering mine tells me a lot about how the avoidance isnāt because it supposedly has nothing to do with the topic.
If you take a shit on someoneās dinner plate and call it chocolate cake, weāre not obliged to eat it, and in fact may be very upset and tell you to GTFO.
Youāre right, youāre not. Which is why I said you were free to move on. But just because you donāt like what Iām saying doesnāt mean you canāt misrepresent it.
Youāre an idiot.
Youāre probably right. And yet Iām still light years more intelligent and objective than you.
Youāre an idiot.
