Okay, I’m confused.
Why would the conservatives shoot at “their own kind”? According to them, the appropriate targets are anyone unlike them, who doesn’t conform to their ideology (anyone non-white, non-Christian, non-straight, non-male, non-right-wing, etc.)
What happened after Kyle Rittenhouse’s killing spree? Nothing. Rittenhouse was made the poster boy of the alt-righters, and their so-called “appeal” hasn’t doesn’t seem to have diminished yet.
In my most humble opinion, Junior and his buddy enjoy waving their… weaponry… around in order to make themselves look like the strong, confident, macho he-men that they know very well, deep down inside themselves, that they aren’t. And that’s all there is to it, really-- it’s all about appearances. I doubt either one would actually stick their noses into a situation where someone might shoot back at them. (Unlike their supporters, some of whom will undoubtedly treat all of the posturing as a call-to-action and start killing people they’ve been instructed to hate.)
