Suspect In Kenosha Shootings Fervently Supported ‘Blue Lives,’ Joined ‘Local Militia’

Despite wearing a full replica police uniform — complete with tie, bomber jacket and trooper hat — Kyle Rittenhouse looked a lot more like a Halloween trick-or-treater than an actual cop in the photo taken in 2017.

After all, Rittenhouse was not even 15 years old when he posed for the picture that remained for years on the Facebook page of a “public safety cadet program” in Chicago’s far northern suburbs.

And he still looked younger than his actual age this week when the now-17-year-old from Antioch, Ill., was arrested in connection with two fatal shootings in Kenosha, Wis.
