August 25th was the three year anniversary of the day Killer Kyle Rittenhouse went on a shooting spree in Kenosha, Wisconsin, killing two people and injuring a third. It was also the day that the estate of Joseph Rosenbaum, Killer Kyle's first fatality, filed a lawsuit against his killer, as well as the Kenosha County Sheriff's Office, the Kenosha Police Department, other agencies and numerous individuals, including police officers. The lawsuit accurately portrays Killer Kyle as on of the many vigilantes that swarmed to Kenosha, meaning to cause problems:
The filing, which seeks compensatory damages, alleges that law enforcement more or less allowed armed vigilantes to run amok on the night in question – and that local and county agencies “directly caused” Rosenbaum’s death in concert with Rittenhouse’s bullets.
During the protests, private citizens took up arms and patrolled the streets of Kenosha, acting as law enforcement agents,” the lawsuit reads. “Many of them had posted racist messages and threatened violence on social media before descending upon Kenosha. They made their plans known to law enforcement agents.”
The filing goes on to make the accusation plain.
“Astonishingly, the Kenosha Police Department, Kenosha County Sheriff’s Department, their supervising officials and police officers, and law enforcement officers from surrounding communities did not treat Defendant Rittenhouse or any of the other armed individuals patrolling the streets as a threat to the safety of themselves or the citizens they were sworn to protect,” the lawsuit goes on. “Instead, the law enforcement Defendants deputized these armed individuals, conspired with them, and ratified their actions by letting them patrol the streets, armed with deadly weapons, to mete out justice as they saw fit.”
The news of the lawsuit hit Killer Kyle pretty damn hard. He thought that he finally was on easy street, living down in Texas with his NRA sugar daddies, when suddenly - BAM! - people want to hold him accountable again!
Killer Kyle was so upset about being held accountable - again! - that he immediately ran to a Texas-based right wing propaganda site to whine and mewl about it:
“These lawsuits are making it harder and harder for me to move on with my life,” Rittenhouse told Texas Scorecard. “It is extremely difficult to go outside without fear of being harassed or assaulted because of the lies spread in these lawsuits. No one should have to continue to defend the fact that they acted in self defense.”
Aw, poor widdle diddums! How can he move on his life when people want to hold him responsible for making sure that at least two people no longer even had lives?
