Yes I can't understand the thinking. It seems a fairly bizarre thing to even suggest. While I am happy the jury came to the decision they did the case really brought out the worst in many and showed how divided society is. I think the best thing now for Kyle Rittenhouse is to just quietly withdraw from the spotlight public and resume his life best he can.

  That would be his best move I think, but I doubt that he will.

Only in America.

So wrong, on so many levels.

 There are some here in NZ who also see him as a hero, oddly enough. And this adulation can't be good for a kid of his age; he's even had a meeting with Trump since the verdict came in, which also can't be good for him, imo.

It's all about agendas. What peoples motives are, to idolise this young man. They will ruin his life imo. (as if it's not already, probably.)

If I was his parents, I'd want to get him out of the country, and emigrate to somewhere far away from the jaws of the US.

  Yes, agreed - far away from the USA & from people who idolise him, & he might still have some chance of a normal life. I don't like the chances of that happening though.
