Kyle Rittenhouse storms off stage after being confronted by students
Rittenhouse's appearance at a university generated hostility from a number of students but he remained positive, saying it had been "a great event."
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 college's Turning Point USA chapter to speak at the campus. However, the event was met with backlash from a number of students who objected to Rittenhouse's presence.
The 21-year-old gained notoriety in August 2020 when, at the age of 17, he shot and killed two men—Joseph Rosenbaum, 36, and Anthony Huber, 26, as well as injuring 26-year-old Gaige Grosskreutz—at a protest in Kenosha, Wisconsin.
He said the three shootings, carried out with a semi-automatic AR-15-style firearm, were in self-defense. The Black Lives Matter (BLM) protest where the shootings took place was held after Jacob Blake, a Black man, was left paralyzed from the waist down after he was shot by a white police officer.
You're viewing part of a thread.
Maybe people are avoiding it because it has fuck all to do with Rittenhouse.
Then just move on if you don't 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 isn't because it supposedly has nothing to do with the topic.
If you take a shit on someone's dinner plate and call it chocolate cake, we're not obliged to eat it, and in fact may be very upset and tell you to GTFO.
You're right, you're not. Which is why I said you were free to move on. But just because you don't like what I'm saying doesn't mean you can't misrepresent it.
You're an idiot.
You're probably right. And yet I'm still light years more intelligent and objective than you.
You're an idiot.
