Honestly, other than the fact that this is a 17 year old kid that has


basically thrown his life away, I can't see why so many people are identifying with this situation.

He has been accused of driving from one state to another and committing a string of crimes. Who wants to defend that? If we want to find someone to blame (as Americans usually do), I'd point the finger at the leadership in Kenosha. Wasn't there a curfew? Everyone involved in this incident was in violation of that - I'm not sure why it wasn't enforced.

I just find it really weird that people would actually rally around this kid because they think he did something good. He's probably not very smart and taking his "direction" in life from people that may not be the most upstanding Americans. The confluence of events is unfortunate, but I can't see this guy as some type of hero.
