Here's a disparity, if you want one

Took them ten seconds to decide to arrest that 17 year old kid, Kyle Rittenhouse of Antioch, Illinois, and charge him with first degree murder.

They shamelessly threw the book at him.

They have still not arrested Rusten Sheskey, a 7-year-veteran of the Kenosha Police Department who shot Jacob Blake in the back seven times.

Blake admitted to police interrogators he had a knife and police say they recovered a knife from under the front seat of his car.

That kid didn't fire at anyone until he, fleeing rioters, fell in the street and the rioters kept on coming at him.

Van Jones on CNN at about 8:15 pm is calling the kid a "lawless vigilante" and no one is criticizing that.

He's called the kid that four times in three minutes.

Rick Santorum is calling the kid a vigilante, too!

If that was self-defense, and the news reports indicate it was, then it doesn't matter why he was there.
He was there legally and he was armed legally.

But even a second Republican is calling his shooting at rioters who were reportedly charging at him a despicable act that must be condemned.
