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.

[-] [email protected] 41 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

...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…

[-] [email protected] 34 points 1 week ago

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

According to the article his sister has been hospitalized and both her and their mother have a hard time getting work because of being associated with Kyle Rittenhouse. BTW the mother did not drive him that's a fallacy

Is it possible that maybe he's a piece of shit?

[-] [email protected] 73 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

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.

[-] [email protected] 51 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Dude, you absolutely need the /s on this one. There are people who authentically say this. And they read your comment thinking you and the upvoters all support that same belief too

No no, see he shot a registered sex offender (which he couldn't have possibly known at the time)!

Conservative values at work. Make a boatload of cash doing the grift circuit after murdering somebody, then hoard it and refuse to help your family.

[-] [email protected] 36 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

He didn't even make much cash, lol. After the initial attention everything dried up and now he's got a hard time getting normal jobs, lol

[-] [email protected] 40 points 1 week ago

gotta be honest, i wouldn't hire him

Kyle Rittenhouse learning that his family is struggling.

LOL

[-] [email protected] 73 points 1 week ago

That's actually him learning that one of the people he shot at survived. Just a reminder, this shithead crossed state lines to dump gas on the fire of a protest and riot caused by disgusting, racially motivated circumstances.

He wanted to kill some people that night, so he brought a big gun. His success resulted in a lot of free money from the folks that want everyone else struggling to survive without violating a ten commandment to go hungry.

The "crossed state lines" thing really irks me because does nobody know that maps exist? I'm thinking about crossing state lines today because I need to get more baby wipes. Shithead went to the next town over, which just so happened to be in a different state.

But let's also not forget he went and partied with KKK members immediately after posting his crowdfunded bail, just in case there's any questions on how much of a shithead he is

But who actually cares? Stop talking about this useless waste of life.

[-] [email protected] 31 points 1 week ago

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.

No problem. Just pull yourselves up by your bootstraps.

Can’t Kyle just go on another murder tour? That should raise them some money.

[-] [email protected] 83 points 1 week ago

Their complaint is that he isn't sharing his murder tour money.

[-] [email protected] 42 points 1 week ago

Oh, so the sister and the mother should go on a murder tour. Kyle provided a roadmap to follow and the justice system approved it.
