1. Tiki Bar and Grill. What does that remind me of?

[underpants]

16. Yeah. That's commented on on Twitter.

I’d guess that’s a publicist sitting next to him. They are going to milk this for a while.

[Wounded Bear]

2. His smile is just as fake as his crybaby face...nt

[Blue Owl]

3. He's ordering off the kid's menu

[a kennedy]

34. Off the kids menu......🤣 😂 🤣

[sop]

4. Enjoy your fifteen minutes of fame, you little Nazi.

[underpants]

10. 🎇

That’s the comment I was looking for.

[2naSalit]

14. I second that.

[Meowmee]

22. This

Unfortunately it is probably going to be more than 15 minutes of fame

[rockfordfile]

50. let them go for it. He's a loser

[Turbineguy]

5. All those people seem to be delighted

to spend time with a guy who shot 3 people.

It's fine, he got off, the NRA did a good job writing the laws he was tried under. It worked in his favor. He's a wingnut star now.

[underpants]

19. We'll never know the sources but there was a lot of money behind him.

He had one of the most prestigious jury consultants in the country on his team.

Most kids in his situation get a public defender who makes little from the time they spend with the defendant and almost always leads them to take a plea.

[Haggard Celine]

6. It's a coincidence.

I go to Englewood all the time. I like to travel all those miles down there after I get off for my murder charges.

[WarGamer]

7. the African American gentleman in a suit is paid security.

[underpants]

8. Speculation on that on Twitter. No accident he's in the pic.

See! 👈 look!

[Hav]

9. I thought his family was concerned about his security

But they are touring the country and go on national TV shows.

[WarGamer]

12. He's had 24hr armed security since he got out on bail.

Probably contracted and paid for by Fucker Carlson.

[a kennedy]

18. Oh ya mean his mom?? Ugh......she should be in prison as he should be. 😡 😡 😡

[MarineCombatEngineer]

29. What should she be in prison for?

Just curious.

[a kennedy]

31. I might be mistaken but she drove him across the state line with a weapon.......

heard that is an offense.....or did I hear wrong??

[Hav]

33. She only drove him back from Wisconsin

I think we would have heard about it if there was anything criminal about it.

[MarineCombatEngineer]

35. You did hear wrong,

she did not drive him to the protest with the firearm, she didn't even drive him there in the first place, the firearm was stored at his friends dad's house in WI, now after the shooting, she did drive him home with the rifle in the trunk, but the actual owner was with them, so if anyone is charged, it would be the owner of the firearm, and possibly the mom, but I highly doubt that the Feds are going to go down that road.

The friend that bought the rifle is already facing Federal charges for buying the rifle for KR, as in a straw purchase which carries a pretty hefty prison sentence and fine if convicted.

[a kennedy]

36. Well, ok, I was wrong. And thanks.

[MarineCombatEngineer]

38. No problemo.

[Devil Child]

39. MCE beat me to it and was more detailed!

There was a lot of false reporting flying around in the early days that stuck.

[doc03]

47. I have heard the news media (MSNBC) for one state that his mother

drove him there. It is bad when you can't even believe the alternative to Faux News either.

[a kennedy]

48. I'm sure that's what I heard then.....very early in the bullshit surrounding the first few days

of the trial…….

[doc03]

55. I have heard on MSNBC after the trial that Rittenhouse's mother drove him

there accost state lines with an AR-15. Those statements were both untrue. I would like to think
I can turn on MSNBC and CNN and hear reliable news reporting. If they stretch the truth, omit the truth
or just outright lie you can't believe anything you hear or see anymore..

[Grasswire2]

11. who is the woman? nt

[WarGamer]

15. She does have that RWNJ "celebrity" look about her, doesn't she?

[JHB]

25. I was wondering if she was Kimberly Gargoyle

[WarGamer]

27. no, around 20 years younger lol

But from the same mold, sure...

[a kennedy]

32. 😂 🤣 😂 🤣 😂. Oh she's gonna hate you for that.....😂 🤣 😂

[Grasswire2]

41. Jillian somebody. Former Bachelor contestant...

....now a publicist. Former Redskins cheerleader.

So she's his new publicist.

[JHB]

46. Sooo... Gargoyle Jr.

[CanyaDigIt]

42. Jillian Anderson.

Former Redskins cheerleader now works for fux news.

[FoxNewsSucks]

13. Murderer planning to meet a traitor.

He just wants to be as useful as possible to the tRumphumpers.

[magicarpet]

17. Flynn and the Nazi will groom Kyle to be the next young Fascist political operative

.... like James O'Keefe of Project Veritas fame. But with Kyle it will be a brown shirt Nazi youth club with machine guns rather than video cams.

[Thomas Hurt]

20. Good little Aryan poster boy. He is acclimating to his slavery well.

[greatauntoftriplets]

21. Who is that phony looking woman next to him?

I'd loved to see that smug smile punched off his face.

[underpants]

24. I'd guess a publicist.

Having attractive people around you makes you look better- at least that’s what I understand

[GoCubsGo]

43. Good guess.

Looks like it's Jillian Anderson, current publicist and former Fox "News" Giggling Couch Tumor.

[tenderfoot]

23. Notice his fan base has nothing to say about this.

[consider_this]

26. Please, if there is any justice in the universe - he had his 15 min.

Can't they freaking leave it at that.
It could have easily gone the other way for him, and most folks are petrified to think a bumbling teenage can legally tote a lethal weapon around, misuse, and then go on like some kind of celebrity. Eff that. Get your shit (i.e. laws) together, WI.

When will we ever have reasonable gun laws. Is is so past time, but why am I telling anyone here - we all know it. Just had to rant as I am fed up.

[Meowmee]

30. They will never leave it at that if possible

There is money to be made and more. We are going to have this sociopath shoved in our faces for a while now. I wonder if they realize he is a sociopath? They probably don’t care because of the above.

[Takket]

28. i posted this in a thread yesterday, and it still seems appropriate.......

we are all appalled seeing bozos like Gaetz offer him an internship, but the reality is white supremacists and the gop and people like Gaetz don't give a flying fuck about Rittenhouse, but they do see the potential for power and profit that come from attaching themselves to his right-wing-base celebrity. Rittenhouse is now a commodity to be consumed, and he'll have the world at his fingertips right up until when his usefulness is exhausted. they they will dump him into the dustbin of history and Rittenhouse will find himself in his mid to late 20s with no fucking clue how to put an actual life together.

Real life example: George Zimmerman.

[BlackSkimmer]

51. 100% this. nt

[Scrivener7]

40. Who is the gargoyle next to him? She looks familiar.

[Straw Man]

44. Looks a little Photoshoppy to me ...

Particularly, the very sharp, straight line of the right side of his face (his right, viewer's left) against the background of the man's jacket. I could be wrong.

EDIT TO ADD: I only got four unique hits on the image with a Google image search, and one is from a Russian site. Be careful, folks.

[BlackSkimmer]

49. That is weird.

I see what you mean.

[localroger]

54. It's definitely a 'shop.

His hair was backlit in the original KR image, which looks completely wrong where the edge of his pasted image meets the man's dark coat. It looks correct on the other side of his head where in the composite shot he's backlit anyway by the bright window. It's pretty carefully done but hair edges are a very hard thing to eliminate in photoshop. There is also a hand in the lower right of the image which doesn't seem like it is connected to a body, which could be from whoever was 'shopped out of the original image. The hair is the tell though.

Edited to add: The bothersome thing about the hand at the lower right is that if you trace the arm up, it should intersect with KR's body in a way that isn't physically possible.

[yardwork]

56. I'm no expert but to me the photo looks odd.

Kyle is dressed very differently from the others at the table. His pose looks off compared with the others. I have no expertise about what to look for, but if it turns out to be a fake photo I wouldn't be surprised.

[AngryOldDem]

57. The woman looks 'shopped too.

Looks like some Right-wing mouthpiece, but can’t place her.

Plus Kyle seems a little overdressed for the venue.

Your edit: Good point. This is exactly how Facebook was manipulated.

[onecaliberal]

45. Someone should ask the media if this is how they would want the killer of their child treated.

[Johonny]

52. He's the RW new prized pig

luckily, I don't have to give a shit about him anymore

[left-of-center2012]

53. How long before he appears with Trump?
