Kyle Rittenhouse’s sister Faith is seeking $3,000 on a crowdfunding website in a bid to prevent the eviction of herself and her mother Wendy from their home, citing her “brother’s unwillingness to provide or contribute to our family.”

      I mean, maybe? But other than wild speculation, is there any evidence?

      Fucking /s because those of you that don’t get it are dumb enough to think The Boys got all anti-you all of a sudden too.

          “That guy” being Rittenhouse who specifically went there with a firearm with the intention to stir up shit? He was absolutely hoping he’d get to murder someone, and surprise surpise – he did exactly that

          Or was he trying to keep the kid pointing the rifle at the peaceful protesters from shooting them?

          The problem is, we will never know now.

            the kid pointing the rifle at the peaceful protesters

            Literally a lie, lol.

            There is video, you cretins, stop making claims directly contradicted by the evidence.

              How do you know it is “literally a lie?” Because all the footage I’ve seen starts with him already being chased.

              Let’s see this video of what he was doing directly before the chase started.

    Huh. Have any of them considered a job? If the mom was capable of driving her child to another state to murder some people, I bet she could drive for uber or something. Or be a getaway driver for other criminals, idk.

      There’s a certain type of person who thinks work is beneath them. That’s who the Rittenhouse family is.

        …what? What are you basing this on?

        When the children were small, Wendy and Mike worked various jobs, including machine operator, housekeeper, and cashier.

        Wendy had become a certified nursing assistant, but she continued to struggle financially. The family was repeatedly evicted.

        In 2018, shortly after another eviction, Wendy filed for bankruptcy. She developed a gastrointestinal bleed that required hospitalization, and Faith was also hospitalized, after an attempted overdose involving over-the-counter painkillers

          Gotta love a conservative family that votes to undermine all the social services they’d need in situations like this. But they seem to be able to afford guns…

            In fairness guns are way more affordable than healthcare is America. Sports cars are more affordable than healthcare in America.

      I care because I noticed that all the people defending him won’t talk about what happened afterwards meanwhile they never stop reminding us that the men he murdered had criminal records.

      It is inconsistent. If they can bring up the past I can bring up the future.

    Another “family values” type doesn’t seem to give a shit about his own family. Bet he has strong opinions on abortion though.
