    YOU are the first responder. Police, fire and medical are SECOND responders.
    When seconds count, the police are mere minutes away...
    Gun registration is gun confiscation in slow motion.

    Often times you can cast journalist bias even when severe as being a matter of perspective, but this one has the quality of state-controlled media. Facts such as "who was holding a pistol" are intentionally omitted. But, because so much of the press is doing that, I'm not sure that average people will realize how much the story is being manipulated.

    Wow, biased much? (CNN, not the OP)

    Isn't it interesting how things can be spun in various ways to tell the same story? I decided to edit the original CNN article with something a bit more honest and unbiased.


    Here's the original article:

    Quote Originally Posted by "CNN biased reporting?

    Anthony Huber was armed with nothing but his skateboard when he spotted an armed person among a crowded street in Kenosha, Wisconsin, but he still ran toward the danger, his girlfriend says.

    "He pushed me out of the way, like he was telling me to run off, and I tried to grab him," Hannah Gittings told CNN. "I should have been there, but there was going to be no changing his mind."

    Huber and his girlfriend were in Kenosha late Tuesday night amid widespread protests following the police shooting of Jacob Blake. Tuesday marked the third night of demonstrations in the city. Just before midnight, officers responded to shots fired. Kenosha police later announced two people had been fatally shot and a third injured. Among the victims was 26-year-old Huber.

    Police have named 17-year-old Kyle Rittenhouse as a suspect in the shooting and he now faces homicide charges as well as a felony charge for attempted homicide. A criminal complaint identified the other victim as Joseph D. Rosenbaum and a third person, Gaige P. Grosskreutz, who was shot in the arm.

    Gittings says Huber launched at the armed individual to protect her and the people nearby.

    "He did a ... heroic thing."

    According to a criminal complaint, Huber reached for the suspect's gun with his hand while holding the skateboard in the other. As Huber tried to grab the gun, the suspect pointed it at his body and fired one round, the complaint says. Huber was seen staggering away and then fell to the ground. He died from his gunshot wound, according to the complaint.

    Gittings says Huber was "completely indescribable" and stood by his beliefs and convictions.

    "He did not deserve to die," Gittings said. "This kid just snatched any chance for him to have been able to live the life that he deserved to live."

    'I just killed somebody'

    Huber was killed as the suspect fled the scene of Rosenbaum's shooting, according to the complaint.

    The suspect had clashed with a crowd that was gathered near a car dealership and Rosenbaum, who was unarmed, threw an object that appeared to be a plastic bag at him and missed, according to the complaint.

    Rosenbaum and the suspect moved across the parking lot and appeared to be in close proximity when loud bangs suddenly rang out and Rosenbaum fell to the ground, according to the complaint.

    A reporter following close behind approached Rosenbaum, who was on the ground, and attempted to render aid.

    As Rosenbaum lay on the ground, the suspect made a call on his cellphone and said, "I just killed somebody" as he ran away, the complaint alleged.

    A man shot in the arm
    The suspect also shot and injured Grosskreutz, who approached him shortly after Huber was shot, according to the complaint.

    When the suspect shot Huber, Grosskreutz froze, ducked to the ground and took a step back, according to the complaint. He puts his hands in the air and then began to move toward the suspect, the complaint says. The suspect fired one shot, hitting Grosskreutz in the arm, according to the complaint.

    Grosskreutz ran away from the scene, screaming for a medic, according to the complaint.

    CNN's Raja Razek contributed to this report.


    Here's the modified article. Some of the original text is struck out and the red text is added text.

    "He pushed me out of the way, like he was telling me to run off, and I tried to grab him," Hannah Gittings told CNN. "I should have been there, but there was going to be no changing his mind."

    Huber and his girlfriend were in Kenosha late Tuesday night amid to participate in widespread protests riots following the justified police shooting of Jacob Blake. Tuesday marked the third night of demonstrations in the city. Just before midnight, officers responded to shots fired. Kenosha police later announced two people had been fatally shot and a third injured. Among the victims deceased violent rioters was 26-year-old Huber.

    Gittings says Huber launched at the armed individual and struck him with his skateboard to protect try to look like a tough guy to her and the people nearby.

    "He did a ... heroic really stupid thing."

As Huber tried to grab the gun, the suspect youth pointed it at his body and fired one round, the complaint says. Huber was seen staggering away and then fell to the ground. He died from his gunshot wound, according to the complaint.

    Gittings says Huber was "completely indescribable" (but then, how do you accurately describe a criminal drug user who repeated assaults others?) and stood by his beliefs (and would assault anyone who disagreed with those beliefs) and convictions (to be clear, we?re not referring to his criminal court convictions).

    "He did not deserve to die," Gittings said. "This kid just snatched any chance for him to have been able to live the life that he deserved to live hurt others and commit more crimes."

    'I just killed somebody'
    Huber was killed as the suspect youth fled the scene of Rosenbaum's shooting for his life, according to the complaint.

    Rosenbaum and caught up to the suspect youth after chasing him moved across the parking lot and appeared to be in close proximity when loud bangs suddenly rang out and Rosenbaum fell to the ground, according to the complaint.

    A reporter following close behind approached Rosenbaum, who was on the ground, and attempted to render aid.

    As Rosenbaum lay on the ground, the suspect youth made a call on his cellphone and said, "I just killed somebody" as he ran away for his safety, the complaint alleged.

    Sadly, most folks won't ever bother to see those pictures or watch those videos - only getting the story of what occurred from the biased media.

    Or you have the "blue man bad" people that won't see any part of the situation other than the kid praised cops and wish him dead.
    Some of these dumbasses stste that "interstate travel with a firearm" is a federal crime.

    Well considering this kid's shiny new lawyer is fresh off anally raping CNN to the tune of a rumored $80 million settlement for defamation of Mr. Sandmann, this might not be so easy for the leftist run MSM to get away with lying about.
    Modern liberalism is based on the idea that reality is obligated to conform to one's beliefs because; "I have the right to believe whatever I want".

    The dude that took his shirt off to try to help criminal #1 who got shot in the dome, was a reporter for the Daily Caller. He is busy giving interviews and it's his statement that's included in the criminal complaint. He is doing everything he can to clearly lay it out that Kyle was running and only defended himself once he got cornered in the car lot. He was interviewing Kyle before that too and didn't see Kyle start shit with anyone. I saw an interview with him on The Rising from The Hill. Very detailed account. But, MSM won't interview him of course.

    Kyle has a sold case except for possibly carrying in WI. As far as I can tell, in Wisconsin long gun possession by minors is prohibited unless they are hunting, unlike most states.
