Wisconsin Teen ‘schools’ Rioters
On August 25, 17-year-old Kyle Rittenhouse left his home in Antioch, Illinois for the 20-minute drive to Kenosha, Wisconsin. A few hours later, the pro-police Trump supporter, armed with an AR-15, told The Daily Caller he was in Kenosha because “people are getting injured. Our job is to protect [businesses].” He spent much of the day cleaning graffiti off of buildings and picking up garbage. Rittenhouse, who describes himself as a militia member, (no group claims him) is alternately now viewed as a hero and villain. He’s been charged with murder after shooting, dead, two men and wounding a third. His lawyers he squeezed off rounds in self-defense aw he was attacked, a claim video appears to support. Kenosha business owners pleaded for concerned citizens to help defend their businesses, because the police were constrained from so doing by Democrats whose duties include ensuring public safety. Rittenhouse – who is certified as an EMT – decided to answer their call, and showed up, locked and loaded.
“I just got pepper-sprayed by a person in the crowd,” he told a journalist before the shootings began. Later, a cop tossed water bottles to the 17-year-old and his companions, saying, “we appreciate you guys; we really do.” Shortly thereafter, Joseph “JoJo” Rosenbaum tried to intimidate Rittenhouse. JoJo, who was convicted of Class 3 Felony child sex abuse, racked up 42 disciplinary infractions while incarcerated in Arizona, after being sentenced to 12.5 years for two counts of illegal sexual contact with a minor. Video shows him aggressively taunting the volunteer law enforcers; repeatedly, he said, “Shoot me, [n-word].” After someone else fired a gun into the air, JoJo lunged at Rittenhouse and threw what’s said to be a Molotov cocktail (gasoline bomb) at him. Rittenhouse tried to retreat, but JoJo chased him. The young Trump fan then accommodated JoJo’s demand. But he was civil about it; as he fired, he didn’t say, “okay, if you insist.” Incidentally, Rittenhouse and those he shot are either white, or, were.
Many Democrats don’t understand that Kyle Rittenhouse, or someone similar, was inevitable. These destructive, leftist rioters and looters, and their supporters – which include elected Democrats – bear full responsibility for his appearance and actions. Rioters in Minneapolis, Portland, and other cities were lucky; not so the three subversives blown away by Rittenhouse. But WHAT did these fools THINK would happen, at some point? Americans don’t want violent losers destroying private and public property, and many favor their eradication. To them, the lives of counterproductive destroyers of property aren’t as valuable as what they’re annihilating and looting, and the culture they’re trying to decimate. This kid took action because elected Democrats disallowed the police from enforcing the law and protecting innocent citizens. His attackers weren’t good Samaritans trying to prevent an incipient mass shooting – which, clearly, wasn’t the teenager’s objective. When lack of effective law enforcement causes a void, vigilantes appear. What’s amazing is how long it took, once the rioting commenced, for this tragedy to happen. An idealistic young man made a sincere effort to protect innocent lives and property. In so doing, he was violently assaulted by three criminals. He defended himself effectively, and with restraint. Readers who don’t see it this way will have trouble understanding that this, now, is our new normal.
Anthony Huber was charged in 2012 of domestic violence, use of a dangerous weapon, strangulation and suffocation and false imprisonment, and convicted on all counts. Upon his release from prison, but while still on probation, he was convicted of domestic abuse, and disorderly conduct and battery.
But after Rittenhouse had already wasted JoJo, Huber chased him; after the shooter tripped and was on the ground, Huber – a competitive skateboarder – struck Rittenhouse on the head, with his skateboard. But WHO chases an armed shooter who, moments before, had shot someone, and then beats the dude on the head, with a skateboard? That’s even dumber than bringing a knife to a gunfight, as Huber found out, the hard way. Less than one second after Huber took his shot, Rittenhouse took his. Shortly thereafter, leftist Gaige Paul Grosskreutz, carrying a Glock semi-automatic handgun, ran toward the teenager. But if this third attacker thought that the third time would be a charm, he was wrong. From a sitting position, the kid fired a round which largely obliterated Grosskreutz’s bicep. But for this perp, it was par for the course. Doctors say he’ll survive, albeit disarmed. As a felon, Mr. Grosskreutz illegally possessed his gun. In 2013, he was charged with felony burglary, criminal trespass, theft, and disorderly conduct. He’s also a member of a leftist fringe organization called ‘The People’s Radical Movement of Milwaukee’ – AKA, to Democrats, as a “social justice reform group”. He was also arrested in 2017. Rittenhouse’s targets weren’t model citizens, and their comeuppance was inevitable. Many Americans are actually rather pleased with what transpired in Kenosha.
By illegally bringing a firearm to Wisconsin and openly carrying it, Kyle Rittenhouse committed a Class A misdemeanor. Even under Illinois Code, he’s not of legal age to carry an AR-15, so there’s that. But to many US citizens, he’s a hero – as proven by FaceBook postings and interviews of ordinary Americans. Go to to a VFW, or an American Legion, or basically any bar in north Iowa; log onto YouTube, and see abundant support for him. Even talk show hosts and journalists, including Ann Coulter and Tucker Carlson, speak favorably of this young man. JoJo, now in his afterlife – wherever that may be – may have already been reminded of what many people learn while alive: Be careful what you wish for.
>From every angle, every video shows Rittenhouse’s shots to be in self-defense, which can exonerate him. But the organized leftists who run GoFundMe.com already decided he’s the bad guy. Despite allowing pages to remain on its website on behalf of the three criminals shot by Rittenhouse, GoFundMe removed the page requesting funds for him. Kenosha chief of Police Dan Miskinis blamed protesters for these deaths, because they violated curfew. While many Democrats are dismissive of reality, their cavalier attitudes may cost them. That’s because now, the game is ON – and tear gas won’t resolve the underlying issues impelling rioters with a radical agenda. Regarding the two violent felons Rittenhouse took out, many Americans see no downside. “Good riddance” is how LOTS of lawful taxpayers see it. After all, his attackers were a pedophile, a wife-beater and a professional anarchist. Karma is a Bitch to avoid, but evildoers who keep up their ways can end up – one way, or another – getting smashed by her.
Since May, Americans have seen mayors and governors in multiple states allow violent protesters, looters and arsonists, to plunder, burn, and even kill. In some cases, law-abiding taxpayers are moving out. But other citizens, even teenagers like Kyle Rittenhouse, won’t only stand their ground – they’ll take out the trash. If any violent perps try doing their thing in either of the two cities I call home – one, in north Iowa; the other, in east Texas – they’ll last about as long as a cricket in a hen house. Do these arrogant thugs and their clueless, pseudo-tough comrades realize that defunding the police means that even more Kyle Rittenhouses will keep order, protect property and innocent lives, and enforce the laws?
Such foolish, lawless instigators of destruction don’t know it, but they’ve instigated a losing battle. That’s because the genie is now out of the bottle. These creeps may yet end up like the passenger pigeon and the T-rex – and won’t be missed by lawful, taxpaying, America-loving Americans. In fact, most people I’ve spoke to about this would love to see them gone, forever.

UNINFORMED OPINION PIECE.
This is such a joke.
No one threw a molotov cocktail.
SO many of these facts are wrong.
This is how stupid people make more people stupid.
Everyone will be dumber for having read this.
Kick the rich off the subsidies, maybe? Or just the poor people?
Hells a coming, and the heat is coming with it!!!!
Well hicks in red mayor towns and states are od’ing and some coming out to kill BLM protesters, life is great when you pop pain pills and get ssi/disability for odd reasons and play Rambo for DumBald J Slump
Have you noticed that these shootings didn’t happen at these protests until trump supporters started bringing their guns to the protests?
I don’t remember this happening under Obama, even when all the Tea-party supporters had their protests, bringing their guns.
Maybe that’s because Obama didn’t stir up his supporters to take their guns and counter protest.
Maybe it’s because Obama didn’t try to divide our country.
Maybe it’s because trump wants this warring amongst ourselves, and his timeline proves it.
Maybe you, and people like you, are part of the problem, especially when you have people making comments like some of those below after you spread hyperbole and outright lies. Hmm.
JoJo – we thought you were dead.
you are correct, these often gov assistance mooching hicks on drink, opiates, and at times meth. Are coming into kill on purpose
“Have you noticed that these shootings didn’t happen at these protests until trump supporters started bringing their guns to the protests?”
Sure – for example, in Seattle’s Chaz / Chop, noone was killed… https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-53224445
At least you Lefties should learn how to properly lie…
Chaz/chop that is some far extreme crap
No one cares about that/them
Your lot however are defendind armed redneck trash, from drunken homes
And also side with/opiate head armed so called militia jobless bums on ssi/disability scamming the system.
The Chaz/Chop freaks and the Militia bums will fall in love and have an orgy if they met.
Self defense has to be proven and rittenhouse didn’t have a legal defense of his actions so he is screwed. Would be screwed almost anywhere in the US except probably a few of those southern redneck states where shooting a black man is still legal.
You right wing nut jobs are the ones who are complicit. Lock you up!
Same with those ssi/cheat toothless thugs at state house armed threatening governors, bunch of druggies and drunks . good deal of them on the dole
I see a lot of BLM/ANTIFA “on the dole” as in section 8, food stamps, and welfare. They live better than I do, and have more money too.
Whose fault is that? You should have made something of your life rather than waiting for your parents to pass so you could get their money.

So, this kid is a “fool” because he (as YOU claim), is “from a bad home”? But even if he is, HOW is that HIS fault?
Maybe YOU were lucky to have come from a so-called ‘good’ home – and, if so, good for you. But is it HIS fault that his parents weren’t married, or if he’s from “a bad home”?
You seem to be a very judgmental, entitled, LUCKY person who thinks it’s okay to look down on the less-fortunate of our society. Maybe you’re one of those arrogant elitists (snobs, actually) who was born on third base, and now you think you hit a triple.
Your lack of compassion, and your liberal elitism is showing; it’s just plain wrong – and, disgusting.
Now, get back to your high-class, ritzy attitudes and snobbish ways, you leftist elitist. And please leave the rest of us regular Americans out of your judgmental rudeness.
I’ve certainly done too much drinking over the years, but I’m sober now, and have no signs of any jaundice, or any other malady.
And you’re way, WAY off, in describing me as ANY kind of “upper class”. Raccoons and possums live beneath my house – and just last week, a BAT was flying around in here!
Does that sound “upper class” to you?
The Rockefellers, the Fords, the Kennedys, Bill Gates, Warren Buffet, and others of their ilk ARE “upper class”, but I’m nowhere near that.
You referenced folks that you call, “rednecks”, which is rude of you. But since you’re into applying labels to people, you’re welcome to reference me as such, because THAT one actually matches who I am: a redneck.
And I’m proud of that, BTW …
Todd you are literally yellow in the picture on here, with dark circles under your eyes
This is laughable. The entire article is about highlighting all the crimes the victims committed (which we have come to expect from your side of the political aisle by now), as if any of that is relevant, but then you conveniently brush over the fact that Kyle was not a saint either and virtue signal your way out of a proper response. You’re not slick.
He is a terrorist as are the white trash drunk/druggy militia guys
He is not an EMT. You have to be 18 to take the EMT certification. He was a domestic terrorist. He shot 3 people. Two of them were trying to disarm him because they didn’t want to see people die. Remember personal responsibility? Why was he illegally carrying a weapon? If he wanted to help, he should have gone there without a weapon. If he wants to be a tough guy, let’s see him do it without weapons.
BULLSHIT! The boy should have not been there. Bringing up anything done by the victims proves you have no case.
Yes indeed

Really? So, the fact that the guy who started the violence – Rosenbaum – was a violent, convicted pedophile (who, while in an Arizona prison, was disciplined 42 times … ) isn’t relevant?
Lots of us don’t like the idea that pedos even avoid execution – and we’re glad that justice was finally done.
Good riddance.
I googled Rosenbaum in AZ and Wisconsin and the national database, Also that City-Data link is user posted, you hit the Az portal in that profile, made up by Andy Ngo btw , he posted it first on twitter. And it takes you to Az sex offender portal.

Todd-o, looks like you got taken in by one of your rightwing nutjobs. Ngo is a reliable source? Ha. Then there is: Rosenbaum was unarmed. Rittenhouse, to be legal in Wisconsin, had to be defending his own property to use the Castle defense. Gonna be real hard to defend this MAGA piece of crap.
These guys never use a search engine to check things.
Your right, the boy shouldn’t have been there, neither should the rioters. There shouldn’t have been riots.
Very few riots most of that is right wing infotainmet
Tucker Carlson is a drunk old rich brat Swanson food brat
they should be there because protesting is allowed in our country.
Destroying private property is not protected under ANY Constitutional amendment. Getting killed while doing so is something that every rioter needs to realize.
That right! How can liberals defend pedophiles and woman abusers. Oh that’s right because they are a bunch of fu@#ing retards
Any crimes the deceased may or may not have committed prior to their murder bears zero weight in Rittenhouse’s decision to fire his weapon. He did not know his victims nor their histories. Seems like Kyle will rot in a cell for a long, long time.
Apply that logic to upper mid class and rich frat boys that destroy property after football games yearly please
May Kyle have to fight them off as his sentence lol
Protesters don’t light dumpsters on fire and try to burn places down. Nor do they try to loot businesses. Protests are peaceful.
Riots are not peaceful, they light dumpster fires, try to burn places down, and loot businesses.
That was a riot.

Kyle in July
Well Todd, this is where your thinking is going.
PORTLAND, Ore. — A man was shot and killed Saturday as a large group of supporters of President Trump traveled in a caravan through downtown Portland, Ore., which has seen nightly protests for three consecutive months.
The pro-Trump rally drew hundreds of trucks full of supporters into the city. At times, Trump supporters and counterprotesters clashed on the streets, with people shooting paintball guns from the beds of pickup trucks and protesters throwing objects back at them.
A video that purports to be of the shooting, taken from the far side of the street, showed a small group of people in the road outside what appears to be a parking garage. Gunfire erupts, and a man collapses in the street.
The man who was shot and killed was wearing a hat with the insignia of Patriot Prayer, a far-right group based in Portland that has clashed with protesters in the past.
Where is the proof these men were convicted felons? It wasn’t a Molotov it was a grocery bag. HE WAS NOT A CERTIFIED EMT BECAUSE YOU MUST BE AT LEAST 21 IN THE STATE OF IL. Like I said where are the sources of your lies?? Where is the proof?

If you bothered to actually read, oh never mind, your a liberal, CNN has to tell you or you don’t know.
Can you show us some proof of that? I am sorry but I don’t trust you to tell the truth.
he was not in any database I posted links to all pf them past week
amateur poorly formatted rag
OK, let’s arm everybody with AR-15s and turn them loose on the streets to protect the police. Teenagers are definitely mature enough to be entrusted with law enforcement duties including using deadly force. When we all have guns and the shooting starts how can you be sure the one you just shot through his eye socket was a bad guy? And who says you won’t get shot. You gun nuts are insane. Go to Syria where you can shoot down terrorists.
What you fear (allow all law-abiding US citizens to be armed) would, actually, work very well.
So, get out of your closed-minded, leftist, elite mentality and watch a few episodes of ‘GUNSMOKE’ – and get back to me.
You’ll see.
Using a fake 60’s tv show as a reference to reality , you drunk old pain pill popping right wing fossil
Really?
If that’s the case, then why did the FBI and the U.S. Secret Service grant me two top-level security clearances to serve two Presidents, including a clearance to work in the west wing of the White House?
If you’re correct, then why did two U.S. Presidents hire me? Also, why did two Directors of the FBI approve requests to recruit, and then hire me, to work for the bureau, and for the JTTF?
Great write-up. One thing to note, Kyle didn’t transport a firearm across state lines. He had been loaned the rifle by a Wisconsin resident for personal protection in what was certain to be a dangerous environment.
As you made clear, Kyle was there to defend the area where he was employed and to serve as a trained EMT medic for BLM. Based on information I have gathered, the militia he was standing with were actually there in support of peaceful BLM protesters. Twitter videos show him in this group of pro-BLM libertarian militia members. The reason Rosenbaum singled out Kyle is because Kyle had used a fire extinguisher to put out a fire than Rosenbaum had started in a dumpster and was leading a group trying to push it toward a gas station (https://www.bitchute[dot]com/video/9Ug4CKWZndOk/). Rosenbaum was extremely angry and aggressive towards Kyle immediately after this. At one point video evidence shows Rosenbaum throwing a plastic bag with materials inside it at Kyle. Originally, this was falsely reported to be a molitov cocktail, but it was more likely to be an improvised chemical device, which were said to be in use by violent protesters that night (https://www.bitchute[fot]com/video/W81P3yBSoVpg/).
I’ve never seen that happen to any column I’ve had published here.

The only neo-nazi fascists are the ones supporting these violent ANTIFA rioters, made up primarily of pedophiles like the first one killed in self-defense by Kyle that night. If you identify with disgusting people like that and support attacking a man just because he put out your attempt at arson with a fire extinguisher, you deserve to rot in prison with the rest of your neo-nazi fascist far-leftists.

Mr. Blodgett I think you did a great job of addressing this situation. I think this needs to be heard. I believe that what he did was right. He useed self-defense because he believed that that was right thing to do.
I think Mr Blodgett did a great job here of presenting the facts of this tragedy. It looks like to me that this kid tried to help and got abused, chased, and even struck by at least two rioters.
In the Army, we were taught to retreat, if possible, when engaged in a situation where the other side has the advantage, either in terms of manpower or fire power. Now that is just what this Kyle kid tried to do. He also did not use excessive force, and then, he calmly walked, hands up, toward the officers after the smoke settled.
He was definitely provoked and should have no trouble getting off, at least on the murder counts. I bet this won’t even get to a trial, it is so obvious he was in fear for his own life and it is self defense.
This boy’s attackers had it coming, I for one am glad he put them down. Because now they are no longer a problem for the rest of us.
Army, someone with your views should not ever have been in our armed services.
Since when is it okay to kill somebody just because they are a pedophile or a wife beater or an anarchist? Those men paid for their mistakes and served prison time.
Yet, you want them dead because you think they should have been executed instead of getting locked up.

That has nothing to do with it. What does, is the FACT that each of the 3 criminals attacked Rittenhouse, 1 tried to take the rifle from him, 1 hit him with a skateboard(used as a weapon), and the 1 that lived had a handgun pointed at him. They all were in a mob (eyewitnesses say 20 or more people) that was chasing him yelling about hurting him. Rittenhouse’s transgression? Using fire extinguishers on a fire set by Rosenbaum in a dumpster that he wanted to push into police cars at the gas station.

he is not on it

Sad blodgett, really sad. You are giving tacit approval to all the stupid wanna be heroes to shoot people.

How’s that?
By printing this is how: “An idealistic young man made a sincere effort to protect innocent lives and property. In so doing, he was violently assaulted by three criminals. He defended himself effectively, and with restraint. Readers who don’t see it this way will have trouble understanding that this, now, is our new normal.”
Rittenhouse as a tragic hero? No. A product of our present mindset? Yes. A criminal? Yes A murderer? Forever.
Wrong.
I don’t advocate, or condone, ANYONE ever even attempting to deliberately cause any harm, whatsoever, to any peaceable, law-abiding American.
I’m also fine with US citizens exercising their right to self-defense, particularly in cases in which they’re being chased – especially, by a mob, as Rittenhouse was – and/or physically assaulted, and/or threatened with weapons, which he was.
The three ex-cons (felons, actually) who went after Mr. Rittenhouse were, themselves, acting illegally. Their violence was met, head-on, by their intended victim.
Why do you have a problem with that?
Why? Because the “3 ex cons” weren’t ex-cons for one. Ngo is a right wing nut job and his made up story has been debunked numerous times since he posted it. Can you admit you were conned?
Did you see the video of Ngo being beaten by the pack of Antifa hyenas? Ngo was very lucky he wasn’t seriously injured, and that is no con job.
There are anarchist entities funding and supporting these ‘protests’…You are the one being conned.

Great article Todd, Kyle is a tough little hombre. He so tough his mama filed for a restraining order because some little heathen at school called him stupid. Good thing too cus Kyle toughguy woulda shot the kid’s face maybe with an AK for such treatment?
Is there a video floating around of Kyle beating the daylights out of a girl? Apparently at school, before Kyle dropped out?

Blodgett has reached a new low, what with this dumpster fire of an Op-Ed piece.
Referring to a man’s limb being shot off, Toddy Boy writes that the victim is now “disarmed”. And most of the bloggers here think that that’s cute.
Oh. My. God.
I dread opening up the Des Moines Register and NIT and even the Globe Gazette, for fear I will come across one of this crazy gun nut’s rants.
Reading this crypto-facist’s screed has ruined what’s left of my weekend. And you ignoramuses who cheer him on are nothing but Nazi pigs.
I guess not all of us can be intolerant left nuts like you. Maybe you hang out with your buddy Dick from NIACC.
I am in a coffee group that meets a couple times a week, this has been going on for years.
Let me say, every guy in out little club said pretty much what Mr. Blodgett wrote up on here.
One of our guys is a retired CL PD, he says he will be very surprised if this Rittenhouse don’t get off on account of self defense. He was being chased by up to 20 people and he tried to retreat at least two times.
Good wording Mr. Blodgett, you are exactly right, just like you usually are.
By the way even if the victims had any past criminal history-it is irrelevant to Kyle’s actions that night. Rittenhouse is set to make his next court appearance on Sept. 25, and no court proceedings have called attention to the criminal histories of his alleged victims. The phenomenon to call attention to this is particularly prevalent when authorities kill non-white people; for example, conservative corners of the internet focused on Floyd’s alleged criminal background after his death, which sparked a civil rights movement, and the rapsheet of another Black man, Rayshard Brooks, after a white Atlanta police officer fatally shot him in a Wendy’s parking lot in June 2020.
Psychologists have said the strategy — whether intentional or not — of shifting focus away from questionable violence and onto the past unlawful behavior of victims makes it easy for people to subscribe to the “they had it coming” trope and justify deaths or injuries.
In response to that campaign, The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel released a statement on Sept. 1 in which it explained why the newspaphad not reported on the victims’ past legal records. The statement read:
There is no evidence so far that the backgrounds of the three victims — Anthony Huber, Joseph Rosenbaum and Gaige Grosskreutz — had anything to do with the clashes that led to the deaths of Huber and Rosenbaum and the wounding of Grosskreutz.
They are the victims of a shooting, and as far as we can tell their past legal records have no bearing on them being shot during a protest.
By illegally bringing a firearm to Wisconsin and openly carrying it, Kyle Rittenhouse committed a Class A misdemeanor. Even under Illinois Code, he’s not of legal age to carry an AR-15. There can be no question that Rittenhouse and whatever adults were in charge of him made idiotic decisions. Minors should not stand guard at protests- play-acting at being cops. https://www.jsonline.com/story/news/local/wisconsin/2020/08/30/witnesses-detail-kenosha-shooting-seeing-kyle-rittenhouse-protest-jacob-blake-wisconsin-17-year-old/5656907002/
Did Kyle’s mommy, a nurse’s aid, get dressed up in army fatigues and drive him to Kenosha?
Kyle is a HERO so what if he can’t drive! His mom Wendy should NOT be arrested!
I expect the mother of Kyle Rittenhouse to also be arrested. Wendy, enjoy jail.
Part of the problem they have been hiring weak as Police Officers now for years.
25 years ago they hired men. When a thug got out of line he got his ass beat, cuffed, and thrown in jail. Today they got 120lb men and women and trying to deal with this shit all they can do is shoot the dumbass.
Yes – you nailed it totally.
you are full of shit, if they had no “bite” we would not have them killing people,screwing up crime scenes etc.
Research and study lazy ass fat puke
Wow, how small is your penis? 2-3 inches? Micro-penis? Bet you have a big ole truck though. Like a “real man”.
HERO !
The whole thing that caused the rioters to chimp out was Kyle daring to bring a fresh fire extinguisher to a dude putting out fires. The rioters didn’t have the right to come from out of state and burn down local businesses. They argued and then pulled pistols, and Kyle retreated where he was fired upon and had a charging pedophile to exterminate. He then retreated from the rioters and had to defend himself again.
He’s neither a hero nor a vigilante, he’s a bastard criminal thug. He was radicalized by his loser mother who couldn’t get his loser father to marry her even by getting pregnant with him.
Your sick, this boy is not no thug it is not his fault if he is bastard, thats on his mom you creep.
Kyle got rid of a pedafile a wife beater and a evil aggitater that hates on our country.
If you do not see how he done done good thats your problem. He should of finished off the guy the one wants anarky, to bad he will live.
You need to love America do you not know.
you are illiterate in your spelling

national sex offender registry
truth stretching how is the offense in Wisconsin then you say Az?
Troll
The above is a totally faked post written by someone who wants us to think they are a backwoods, uneducated, Trump lover. More than likely it is someone who is looking for a thank you from the author of the post. Maybe recognition from the author is another hope. I imagine this is actually a member of the N. Iowa Republican group who thinks they are being cute while praising Trump. Pathetic.
Darcey, your comments would hold more weight if you could put a coherent sentence together, but alas, your message is lost in the sea of misspellings and “not no thug”s. It’s sad. I would love to hear from a person whom the American education system failed, but I can’t understand a damn thing you’re trying to say.
Regardless of self defense or not we don’t need Fortnite LARPing teenagers going to active riot zones with a gun.
If we must accept this as apart of the lefts actions as the article states, we must also apply the same logic to the right. When you bring in paramilitary troops in rented vans (which is hilarious) and abduct people off the street what do you think is going to happen? When you see a video of cops shooting a guy in the back 7 times what do you think is going to happen? This is the classic puritan “she shouldn’t have been wearing that if she didn’t want to be raped”.
I think requiring police offers to carry insurance if there are any lawsuits levied towards them in commission of their job (like we require of many other professions). This would protect the taxpayer and have consequences for the police if their misconduct rises to that level.
The pedo and the assaulter and the anarchist, they were all on borrowed time anyways. We need to execute their kind, not let them roam free out into our streets.
They do crazy stuff that makes good kids like this here one get arrested. Does anybody know, is there some way to give money to this boy for his defense.
Shame on them go fund me folks took down his page.
Go to national sex offender registry and look up Rosenbaum he is not there
Andy Ngo planted a fake post on a message baord Ctiy-data
always look stuff up and look it up again, and again
laziness and stupidity , drug use and drinking all right wing does
No Joseph Rosenbaum is found on the Wisconsin sex offender registry right now, but he may have been removed because he’s deceased. Screenshots and city databases show that he was on that registry for a sexual contact with a minor case out of Arizona.
When asked Wisconsin Department of Corrections if they had a Joseph Rosenbaum on the registry before and they said yes and they were notified he’s now deceased.
The charge was Sexual Conduct with a Minor. The conviction date was 12/16/2002 in Arizona.

national data base
oh click on the state portalin that city-data link it is a blank
laziness is a sin
post a lice ink not text or be considered a troll of misinfo
Post a live link not a copy/paste of text
fake troll of fake info
Oh the old “I’m not responsible for my actions because…” argument. I guess I can’t be responsible for calling you an ignorant piece of shit because the fact that I’m well-educated and not a hateful moron made me do it. You cannot dole out justice just because someone is doing something you don’t agree with or understand. I cannot shoot you just because you’re stupid and dangerous. It’s always the people with the smallest brains that want to solve things with guns and their own harebrained ideas of justice.
If the law is required to BUY insurance..how well will they perform there job, worrying about all the gooners wanting to blame/sue somebody
doctors git to be insured as do several other careers
Beautiful words, great message.
Thank you, Mr. B.
“albeit, disarmed.”
Leave it to Blodgett to come up with that one.
Yes, I can see the humor, and it is amusing.
But still kinda sick.
No. What is sick is them rioters burn them buildings down stick people up and smash cars rob places ect.
Nothing sick at all about a good young man doing what is right. One way or the other, these bad egg’s got to go.
The sooner we get rid of them all the better for everybody that obey’s the law.
Amen
half the riot footage is from stock footage sites, right click hit image search on pics
Yes, CNN,MSNBC, and the rest of your liberal media outlets due use a lot of stock footage.
Me again , you dim witted hick
News should be boring and factual, opinion should be separate and labeled as such
News should not have fans
Lazy fat redneck
What is sick is how badly the American education system has failed you. I know you didn’t read this entire article, because you clearly are semi-illiterate. Please learn some spelling and grammar and then come back and make comments like an adult.
Wonderful column, Todd.
Keep them coming, we love to read your stuff.
The young man that Blodgett is making fun of (“disarmed”) now handicapped, just like the one that Donald T Rump ridiculed when he tried to imitate his manner of speech.
And here are all of you neanderthals, who think it is just soooo funny. A man’s muscle was shot off by a teen-aged lunatic, and you all think it is humourous.
You people disgust me.
Should of shot him dead.
Good riddance.
I know, you are so right. How dare he defend his life from rioters. He should have just handed over that rifle and let them beat him to death. the audacity of some people, wanting to not be beaten to death by rioting scum bags.
It’s “should have”. I am sorry but even if I didn’t think you were an ignorant person who somehow believes he has the right to dole out justice based on principle alone…I would never take you seriously because you can’t form a coherent sentence. That should be the minimum requirement for people to share their opinions.
Did he not ask for it?
Actually he didn’t quite get the humerus bone, too bad actually.
Let’s see, a felon that has no contact orders and he was ordered not to possess weapons. Has a handgun, gets shot in arm that had handgun, most likely won’t have handgun again.
So a crazed Trump supporter shoots three men, two of them dead, and Todd Blodgett and his insane fans not only approve, but they love it.
Surprise, surprise.
How sad it is that this fanatical, drug-addicted gun nut even is accorded a platform to spew his blood-curdling, far right views. Even sadder that so many north Iowa readers support his advocacy of bloodshed.
Maybe it is time for me to move to Florida, to get away from the rednecks around here. You people are sick, sick, just sick.
So move then, you commie.
F8ck you!! Don’t choke on Trumps D!ck
good luck in Florida, pretty sure those rednecks will have a field day with you
It’s nice to see someone back up what he says with facts. I have never known you to be emotional or subjective in any of your posts. Objective with a solid base for your statements. Thank you.
use a search engine half of Todd’s post is bullshit
also look up the sex offender registry on a national and state level he is not there
You bowled another 300 on this one Todd, oh yes.
Copied and pasted, sent to some buddies on my email chain, they like it to, its a good one.
Your mama bowled a gutter ball when she got you.
Mason needs somebody like this kid, he could clean up our town right quick.
Good article Mr. Blodgett. Thank you for writing the truth and making it very funny to read!
Dis-armed, what a hoot, LOL
Heck, YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mr B, we can’t stop laughing! Loved how you told about the guy who’s bicep this boy shot all to hell… he will survive, albeit, disarmed.
LOL!!!!!
OMG, now that is funny!!!!!
I agree, thats one of the funniest things I have ever read. In my whole life. I called my neighbor to tell him about it, he just now called back, was laughing real good.
Was laughing real good. Lolol. I can’t even get mad at you illiterate losers because of course someone who can’t cobble together words to form a coherent thought would find this disgusting article funny. These are Trump supporters. Thank you for being everything we thought you were. It’s refreshing and nice that in this crazy year, we can still rely on Trump supporters being stupid. Godspeed.
Great article Todd, we love it and the wife post it on her Facebook page.
Goody for Mr Blodgett, he says this so nice and clear.
If our beloved country makes it, it will be on count of good Americans got rid of these evil looters. Like our wonderful Presidents says, when the looting starts, the shooting starts.
I sure wish Mason City had some good kids like this Kyle, what a wonderful thing he did, getting rid of these hoodlums. He should go free, he did nothing wrong.
Interesting that looting means you’re evil, but murder makes you a hero? So if someone is doing something I don’t like, for example, you posting a poorly-spelled comment expounding the merits of a murderer, I have the right to shoot you for being so stupid? I’ll bear that in mind.
White collar crooks can loot a bank for years and get probation in America.
**SOURCE**
Todd and his drunk ilk love and support white collar criminals
BRAVO BRAVO BRAVO BRAVO BRAVO BRAVO BRAVO BRAVO BRAVO, Mr Blodgett. This is one of the best columns you have ever wrote. I just now send it to our daughter she lives in Utah, she will love it.
Thank you for saying what we think, Todd, we love America we love your words, we will vote Trump.
TRUMP in 2020!!!!!!!!!!!
Love America or get out.
