Ann Coulter Praises 17-Year-Old Arrested For Murder Of 2 Protesters: ‘I Want Him As My President’

Ann Coulter quickly sparked backlash on Wednesday after she praised Kyle Rittenhouse, the 17-year-old charged with shooting three people — two of them fatally — during a Kenosha protest Tuesday night.

The teenager, who was armed with an AR-15, is from Antioch, Illinois, drove across state lines to stand guard outside businesses during unrest stemming from the police shooting of Jacob Blake, a Black man who is now paralyzed as a result.


He was taken into custody and will be charged with first-degree intentional homicide. Wednesday’s arrest record from Antioch Police said that Rittenhouse “fled the state of Wisconsin with the intent to avoid prosecution for the offense.”.........................

Next time, save yourself the aggravation and don't read articles that you don't like.

Thu Aug 27, 2020, 09:34 AM

I feel like we're seeing that rhetoric shifting from a warning to a threat. First Tucker Carlson, now Ann Coulter -- they're propping up this psycho murderer as a champion of their cause.

The message is turning from "if Biden is elected, he won't keep you safe" to "if Biden is elected, we're going to encourage Americans to take guns out onto the streets and kill their fellow citizens."

This fetishizing of white people with guns and preferential - even DEFERENTIAL - treatment from police is a disgrace and an absolute endorsement of racism, period.

I know that there is nothing I say that will make that worthless cunt Coulter even pause to consider her wickedness, but she - and the tools of the right like her - are human refuse and need to be called out as such constantly.

Why single out Coulter. The entire GOP could care less about the qualifications to be president of America. The only skill is hating blacks, love guns, fuck the laws, and willingly kill those against your tiny little world. He fits the mold. Trump IS the mold, fuck they are talking about Jr and Donnies daughter toy, as president. That prick 17 year old probably has better IQ than Donny. Of course Coulter, Carlson, Fox and Hannity would elect him and continue writing policies from their microphones.
Damn we are getting great.
