> their America doesn't include murdering thy neighbor. They might "want to kill each other"

Well, you can find a lot of message boards in which they fantasize about doing this. And it sells a lot of weapons. But the energy barrier is high; people like Kyle Rittenhouse cross it only rarely enough that they can be dismissed as isolated incidents. It's not every day that someone blows up a telephone exchange. Just another isolated incident.



> people like Kyle Rittenhouse

Don't forget the people that shot at him and tried to stomp his head in.


He went looking for a fight. A fight he had no business being anywhere near. I have no sympathy for Rittenhouse.
