Big League Politics by Shane Trejo
The Washington Examiner, ostensibly a conservative outlet, published an op/ed on Wednesday trashing Kyle Rittenhouse for his heroic actions in Kenosha, Wisc. last year.
Columnist Quin Hillyer said Rittenhouse is at “clear moral fault” for exercising his 2nd Amendment rights and defending property against a riotous left-wing mob. He also said that the left-wing thugs Rittenhouse shot dead, one of which was a convicted pedophile, deserve sympathy despite the fact they were attacking the young man.
“The weapon was not a handgun that someone supposedly providing “first aid” in a riot zone might carry for protection; it was an AR-15-style semi-automatic rifle, hardly a reasonable choice for someone allegedly acting as a self-appointed medic,” Hillyer wrote, expressing his apparent opposition to the 2nd Amendment.
“A host of conservatives are rushing to Rittenhouse’s side, arguing he was acting in self-defense. Fear, perhaps, but not really self-defense. He created the dangerous situation with all his earlier actions. He was the one who killed two unarmed men who, even if not moral exemplars themselves, would still be alive had Rittenhouse not gone where he didn’t belong while packing illegal heat,” he added.

Hillyer is getting dragged on social media for his abhorrent and disgraceful take on a courageous young man in Rittenhouse who will inevitably go down as an American hero.
They would have murdered him and walked. #FJB

NeverTrumpism really does warp formerly intelligent people.
