A good article outlining why Kyle Rittenhouse was considered a specifically purposeful target for the regime is written at Powerline Blog by Paul Mirengoff [SEE HERE].
What the author essentially describes is something CTH readers have witnessed for over a decade, we called it “The Safari Principle” narrative; and it surfaced in its most modern form during the George Zimmerman case.
In essence, the underlying elements of the Safari Principle narrative begin with a pretense that victims of the mob, any mob or individual predator, have no one except themselves to blame because they did not follow the rules of the safari. When in the proximity of any person, event or situation that is engaged in an unlawful act supported by the political left, you are not permitted to exit your vehicle or engage in activity that will lead to your targeting.
If you enter their “space to destroy“, you are to blame for your own outcome. The safari narrative includes catch phrases like “he should not have gotten out of the car,” and “he shouldn’t have traveled to Kenosha,” all based on the same principle.
(Powerline) […] The Rittenhouse prosecution and the demonization of him by the left (including the left-wing media) stems from a simple premise. Leftists, including Antifa and BLM, have the right to take to the street causing chaos and property damage, and when they do, those who disagree with them must stand aside while leftists run riot. If they don’t stand aside, they have no right to defend themselves against members of the mob who come after them — even if someone points a gun at them (as Grosskreutz did). (read more)
The first advocacy for the modern “Safari Principle” surfaced prior to the George Zimmerman trial, in the summer of 2012, when the professionally aggrieved first began the narrative: “He shouldn’t have gotten out of his car”.
Historically, we used to blame the victim by saying he/she was in the wrong place at the wrong time. However, politically it became too difficult to define where the wrong places were, and simultaneously legislators continued to struggle defining the right vs. wrong times law abiding people were allowed to be in these places.
Historically, the political media were skilled at excusing transparently guilty. However, in the aftermath of the Obama paradigm shift, where the media began accusing the transparently innocent, a more specific rule was needed.
After various opinions were considered, eventually the advocates settled upon The Safari Principle – A selected narrative used throughout 2012/2013 as a point of advocacy driving home the belief that George Zimmerman had no right to follow, then exit his vehicle when he saw a suspicious Trayvon Martin peering through windows and casing houses.
The “Safari Principle” evolved to further claim, ‘if you do get out of your car, you deserve what you get’ with the implication by the leftist narrative engineers that essentially young black males cannot control their behavior.
Shortly after the grievance advocates of Ben Crump, Natalie Jackson, Daryl Parks and the congressional black caucus announced their own support for the Safari Principle – another incident surfaced in Virginia when two reporters for the Virginia Pilot stopped and exited their vehicle after their car was hit by bricks.
The couple was attacked by a mob of somewhere between 30 to 100 young black males while shouting “justice for Trayvon”. After the reporters left the hospital, the Virginia Pilot editorial team quickly apologized for not following the Safari Park rules, accepted the beating of their reporters was the fault of the couple who stopped their vehicle, and the newspaper promised they would join the advocacy movement.
Fast forward through several more examples to August of 2014, when Ferguson Police Officer Darren Wilson exited his vehicle after Mike Brown punched him in the head and tried to gain his service revolver. The meme of The Safari Principle was quick to surface again, LOUDLY.
Officer Darren Wilson had no right to get out of his car after the attack.
By exiting his SUV, Wilson was to blame for Mike Brown charging him in the street. Again reaffirming the leftist worldview that young black males cannot control their behavior.
Subsequently, the grievance advocates pointed out Officer Wilson was ultimately to blame for shooting Mike Brown. If Wilson had followed the Safari Principle, Mike Brown would still be alive today.
After Mike Brown was killed by police officer Darren Wilson, the Safari Principle advocates applied the same theme to explain how Zemir Begic was guilty of his own murder, again in Saint Louis.
Zemir Begic exited his vehicle in the vicinity of three young black males who beat him to death with hammers. Begic would be alive today if he had only followed The Safari Principle rules.
A year later, 2015 in Baltimore, Maryland, Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake then became a public advocate for the safari rules when she proclaimed her decision to let the riots, looting and arson continue, as it was intended specifically to give the mob “space to destroy.” Despite the dozens of property owners who saw their shops, stores and livelihoods go up in smoke, the rules of the safari took precedent.
Again, in the aftermath of George Floyd’s death in Minnesota, the rules of the safari became evident when looting, arson and riots were defined as “expressions of speech.” All violence supported by the political left is considered speech, while speech opposed by the left is defined as violence.
Because the visible chaos did not align with the gentle media descriptions of “protests“, the corporate media decision was to modify the language used to describe the arson and riots by using the term “mostly peaceful protests,” that term has stuck within the visible chaos over the past few years in various forms.
Obviously the word “mostly” is a relative term , and that provides the flexibility needed to convince viewers the violence they are witnessing isn’t really the violence they are witnessing.
.
Kyle Rittenhouse made the mistake of trying to impede violence, arson and rioting supported by the political left and their media allies. Rittenhouse paid a heavy price for not following the rules of the safari, and that is why they are so determined to make an example of him.
In 2020 the FBI, the political left who need/support the violence, and the current occupant of the White House did not make the same mistake as Rittenhouse. Instead the FBI, Democrats and Joe Biden adhered to the safari rules and took the approved approach as demanded by the mob:
In Soviet America, you don’t go on safari, safari go on you.
Or the Overton Window is smashed over your head and you have to sit there and take it.
Forgot to add:
Powerline is RINO Lite and Mirengoff is NeverTrump Lite. Odd that he is writing this.
Web traffic must be down there.
Yep. I doubt they would be defending Rittenhouse if Fox News and all of conservative inc. had not given the “Its ok” sign. IRC, they were among the first to trash the Covington kids and were screeching along with the MSM about the so=called Jan 6th “insurrection” until they came to their senses.
when did they come to their senses?
When they realized Pelosi’s plan to enslave America included $billions for ABC NBC, MSNBC, CBS, ESPN, NPR, and others but not them.
So…..PowerLines’ motives for saying the right things-the truth- was wrong, in your opinion, and therefore of no consequence?
Don’t get me wrong, I’m tired of weakling “conservatives “ too. But what about when someone is correct?
Or are they not Trump-ish enough for your tastes?
Just asking…..
Motives define intent.
The motive here isn’t to “say what is right” but to deceive.
RINOs gain power by people assuming their sincerity in words over their record in deeds.
A level of wariness should be observed when one has expressed TDS.
Those that could not divorce the effects of President Trump running the country from the much hyped personal shortcomings of the man are no friend to the American people.
Policy over personality, logic over hype.
The new pResident should illustrate that clearly.
Well said. You describe a family member. She had/ has TDS. A bad case of it.
I tried to put emotion aside and simply asked her a pragmatic, logical question around election time, which was how her life had been negatively affected by President Trump, to which she replied: ‘I’m not black, I’m not trans.’ Huh?
So basically, she’s a virtue signaling, wokist SJW. It breaks my heart to see someone I love be so closed minded and so brainwashed.
It’s sad and frustrating and it gets lonely when most of my family members feel as she does.
The level of brainwashing is extreme. I’m sorry you deal with it with a family member. We did too and ironically about the looting and rioting issue.
My husband’s son said there should be no right to defend property. Outrage over racism was more noble and worthy than personal property.
You just can not reason with them. He said that if my husband voted for President Trump he never wanted to hear from him again. My husband has obliged.
I’m sorry that you and your husband are also experiencing these rifts over politics. Over insanity!
It feels surreal.
Does your step son own any property? What kind of job does he have if I may ask? Has he ever built anything with his own hands and money?
Not my son, he was grown when I married his dad.
He does own property and I could regale you with stories of how he justifies his privilege. He is a classic over educated and stupid person. Too much university education and zero common sense.
He’s now a professor. He’s about the last person I would want influencing any young minds but he’s far from alone in his profession.
I told my husband that his son should voluntarily donate all of his belongings to the cause since he’s doing quite well and does NO charity work.
Sadly, like all of his ilk, he doesn’t feel that his contributions should be made by him. He thinks the government should be doing it.
I’m rather relieved he’s out of our lives and I’ve said zero of our money goes to him which my hubby agrees with, thank heavens.
Follow up questions: When did POTuS or candidate Trump EVER “diss” blacks or trans people.
Another thing: how old is she?
You’re absolutely right, but that one answer from her, along with her tone, made it crystal clear to me that there was no reasoning at that point, and to pursue it further would come to no good, to put mildly.
So I let it go. I did not want to trigger her TDS any more than it already was.
Biden has a long record of racists statements and actions he’s made for the generations he’s been in office. Pull up a list of them.
If you find a racist statement Trump has made., as a candidate or president, let me know. Trump helped the minority people, like the black, Hispanic and women groups.
Doesn’t sound like it. Sounds more like they’re saying PL likes to wait for everyone else to jump into the water to find out if it’s cold.
SD is correct, pointing to someone that is writing about something SD talked about.
You don’t need Trump…ish, here’s what he said…too mean-ish?
“Congratulations to Kyle Rittenhouse for being found INNOCENT of all charges. It’s called being found NOT GUILTY—And by the way, if that’s not self defense, nothing is.” 11/19/21
Trump is too nice for me, but better then RINOs. /s
Maybe to see if there are piranha in the water.
wouldn’t he – shouldn’t he – be wary of using such a term, to be possibly labeled a racist for looking at it as being in a “safari situation” – meaning, you are traveling through a dangerous region and as the loudspeakers on the vehicles warn the sightseeing tourists, do not get out of your vehicle to take pictures (examples in recent years of people on “photo safari” being mauled by wild animals)
to even connote that an American can not be on a street anywhere IN America safely is part of the “fundamental transformation”
so leave some neighborhoods, communities, cities, entire regions to the care and predations of Democratic Party governance and this is the end result – very UN-American (I don’t mean United Nations UN but un as in NOT!)
No-Go Zones.
Gone global.
Rittenhouse is not Actual President Trump.
The FoxNews/McConnell Uni-Party plan has always been to replace Trump with a Swamp Republican like Pence, even if they had had to wreck America with a Biden Occupation Government first.
F*** them.
The Overton Window has definitely shifted so far out of whack that many Americans, the silent majority, are going to push back on this nonsense. Until the powers that be disarm the population, you will have people defend themselves… Safari principle be damned. Sensible juries will nullify it when they can be seated. I guess that depends on where it happens.
I have a question for these narrative engineers/ leftist propagandists: does this Safari principle garbage apply to black cops? Can they control their behavior? Just curious how that situation applies. I guess that may explain the light sentence of the black Somali cop in Minneapolis that shot Justine Damond.
Like the “gentleman” who shot Ashley Babbit? The US capitol is a swamp zoo. Hippos and hienas and snakes and crocodiles and a turtle.
Yes, the Overton Window has shifted, but pushing back will take courage and a LOT more Kyle Rittenhouse types. And we cannot expect juries will be this fair. If a patriot “pushes” back in the wrong locale, county or state, he or she could be looking at life in prison.
To me, the needed pushback cannot merely be a passive-aggressive form of resistance, but an in-their-face-with-attitude form of resistance.
The woke / leftist legal / law enforcement community (judges, prosecutors and donut eating Barney Fife goons) need to have the fear of God put into them.
RIGHT ! Kyle was lucky to have a fair and reasonable judge—and 12 clear-eyed and BRAVE jurors—willing to support the obvious—in spite of MSM pressure.
The Covington guy reached out to Kyle, saying he should sue the media into oblivion !
Painfully accurate. Brainwashing.
God Help Us

A good training exercise for anyone studying, learning or practicing self defense, go to Portland and get out of your car.
A target rich environment.
A friend that went on a business trip to first Portland then Seattle said the same. He also shared that Seattle was like Portland with less swearing and bodily threats.
He said both smelled like a very foul outhouse. That’s got to be good for business. /s
I left Seattle in 2017. In ’98 when I got thete it was clean. In ’17 when I left bums had overrun the place at the invitation of the city machine and slept in doorways and crapped on sidewalks while the city subsidized them[and registered them to vote and “found” their ballots whenever convenient during close elections.] Visualize stepping around human crap to enter a bakery. Visualize the merchant powerwashing the crap off the sidewalk. Visualize the liquified crap floating across the street as an aerosol and coating the cars, benches, and door handles leading into the hospital across the street. Visualize TB and Hep-C in the s**t of IV-drug abusers.
It is so good to be somewhere else.
As an escapee from California, I can relate. We left years ago and I’d say at least once a month one of us still says how thankful and happy we are we made the move. The improvement in quality of life and lower cost of living is astounding.
My husband had been on a job in Indiana. He sent me a pic of one of the box stores back here and each aisle had a different service’s flags over it. He said it feels like America.
When he got home he asked if I would be willing to move. My hearty reply was YES, when?
We were gone within months after having resided in CA for over 50 years. Not a single regret.
I’m determined that my new abode does not go the way of CA. I’m awake to the pernicious , if you cared you’d support x, y and z agenda they push to get a foothold. No way will I go down without a fight here.
Portland, OR has been allowed to be turned into a war zone. Get those Dems out of power and return our nation to one of law and order.

Nothing like destroying your own arguement ..Geesh
You don’t read the news very much do you?
He is 100 percent correct
Targeting people in general based on their race or religion is never correct.
Totally agree with you!
This a dumb take in light of current trial in which three racist White guys are on trial for killing Ahmaud Arbery, who (gasp!) stood up to them. Arbery clearlyviolated the Safari Principle, thus angering the racists.
Hopefully, the racist thugs will be found Guilty. That along with the verdict in the Rittenhouse trial will reaffirm that Self-Defense is a right for all Americans no matter race, sex, religion, etc.
Hopefully, the three innocent defendants will be found innocent one of whom is the retired police detective who arrested Arbery for bringing a loaded handgun to a high school football game. Maybe he was jogging there too!
Yeah, they should just allow their communities to be burglarized. The cops will figure it out, or are they racist too

“When black school children who are working hard in school and succeeding academically are attacked and beaten up by black classmates for “acting white,” why is it surprising that similar hostility is turned against Asian Americans, who are often achieving academically more so than whites?” [..]
“These are poisonous and self-destructive consequences of a steady drumbeat of ideological hype about differences that are translated into “disparities” and “inequities,” provoking envy and resentments under their more prettied-up name of “social justice.”

Charles Payne, black Fox business anchor, related a sad story a few years ago of how hard it was for a black kid like him in Harlem because he cared about his studies.
I believe he said his dad had either died or perhaps had split from his mother. His mom was now the head of household and worked very hard for her kids. She knew that the one thing her studious son Charles had always wanted was a briefcase. He never in the world thought he’d ever get one as they were expensive and they hadn’t much money.
However, one Christmas, he opened her gift for him and found a beautiful black briefcase! Nothing had ever surprised him more nor made him happier.
Charles took a lot of slings and arrows from schoolyard and classroom bullies for caring about his schoolwork. The same type of kids who accused him and others like him of “acting white” for liking school and caring about scholastics were the same type who–yep–took his prized Christmas gift from his mother and destroyed it.
As he told that story on his Fox show one day during the Christmas season, he choked up. I’ve never forgotten that.
It stuns me how quickly some jump to pushing the blame onto Jews.
I guess they fall right in line with the Nation of Islam approach. Heck, literature from the Nation of Islam is what is provided to our J6 POW’s.
Every time I see the anti-Jew argument I want to remind everyone what Germany looked like.
And btw, have you seen how many blacks are targeting Jews and Asians?
This is not about a religion or race.
This is about liberty and freedom and their enemy: totalitarianism.
When you blame any one group, you buy into their division. You become their tool.
Don’t be a tool.
Exactly!
The mob is actually a relatively small group of agitators and thieves. If law enforcement really wanted to protect the citizenry they would shoot a couple of instigators and watch the cockroaches flee.
Let the terrorists know that lawlessness will have dire consequences.
MOAR DRACO PLS!
PRECISELY!!
Not allowed to shoot them!
But, they would be shooting FBI Confidential agitato,…INFORMANTS, and that wouldn’t go over well, at all.
“The color for the day is BLUE”
Which is exactly why the Media is losing their sh@t over the Not Guilty verdict. Stay out of my personal space or you will get shot.
This is verdict is even better than watching Killary being perp walked.
Self defense is Alive and Well Bitches!!! ❤️??❤️
Ps
So is the rule of law and they hate it ???
The REAL Terrorists are the FBI and the local and state LE who are allowing the leftist thugs to riot, burn and destroy.
Not just allowing them, they’re encouraging them by literally grovelling on their knees before them.
You don’t need law enforcement, just hide your identity, and steer the group towards the highway.
See how good they are at dodging traffic.

Safari Principle, I like it SD. Rittenhouse is either the luckiest man alive or touched by God. Speaking of God, and I apologize for roaming, but I had an epiphany earlier. Looking at the madness which has engulfed the left and their media I had this thought. Normies I think just go with the flow. Whatever appears to be the dominant power source/trend they don’t buck it.
Ok back to God and/or Mother Nature, what if what we have been seeing over the last generation has been the escalation of a great die off. It’s very similar to the infamous DoDo bird story. So many people have become encapsulated in a reality which doesn’t make them fight to survive. They have become to reliant on those making their choices for them. Hell even Gates may fall into this trap tho it’s hard not to think of him as a madman. There’s obviously some at the top that see thru their own self deluded charade. Nature has a way of killing off those who cannot adapt or those who become to specialized in a certain niche. I think that might be what is what is happening right in front of us. I think most of you can guess how they’re doing it.
Good point Luke!
I’d like to see a competent evolutionary biologist study the changes that are going on in the European-derived gene pools as a result of political correctness. Woke culture and woke policies provide powerful evolutionary pressure, so I am sure changes are happening. I expect those pressure to become stiffer and more focused with time.
But that study is not going to happen, because any biologist undertaking it would lose their grants and probably much more.
(By the way, a person can take this idea seriously and still not believe in the evolutionary origin of human beings. If you accept that animals and plants can be bred for certain traits, this concept shouldn’t be a big stretch.)

OMG, I think you’ve CRACKED THE CODE with this……..TOO
The prosecution arguments were focused on how the safari wildlife were not a threat in any way. It was only a little bit of harmless arson (they were lighting small fires to keep warm) and skateboards are children’s toys Santa brings at Christmas.
Exactly ?
I am so glad I do not have to look at Pee-Wee and Lardy anymore. Day after day was getting trying.
The prosecutor made Sundance’s Safari point perfectly clear when he commented during closing, ‘Sometime you just have to take a beating’.
Exactly ?
Isn’t he special. Let’s hear his excuses the day he becomes a victim of an angry raging mob.
I’m sure he’ll be fine. You know, he’ll use his fists.
During the L.A. riots I was leaving City Of Industry, Ca. with a load headed back east. A group of dinks blocked the intersection. I dropped the 18 speed Eaton down to 3rd gear low range and ran thire asses over at walking speed. Thats what a tractor does- pulls the trailer. Never heard anything about it. Gee I hope they’re o.k.
You obviously didnt want to “take a beating” like Reginald Denny.
Good for you.
During those riots, my late husband was a diesel mechanic for a large trucking firm in the City of Industry, working the late shift. There was no way to safely exit the area when work was done for the night. The big gates were locked down around sunset and the mechanics on the late shift just slept in their camper shells overnight, and went home later in the week.
I was SO tempted, at one point to get a manequin, dress it like a protester, complete with vagina hat, and strap it, horizontally to the front of my 10 ton cabover,…it would be holding a protest sign, saying,….
“THIS is what democracy looks like!”
However, if I ever subsequently WAS in a situation where I had to run over protesters, to protect me and mine, photos of my truck like that would have prosecuted me…
So, I didn’t,…but I sure WANTED to!
LOVE IT! Thanks for sharing.

What about those of us who don’t have any?
I still have never heard of a justification for Reginald Denny being dragged out of his truck and his poor head being bashed in – if not for 4 citizens watching the horrific attack live on local news, he certainly would have died – brave people ran to the scene to rescue Reginald Denny –
this was during the “Rodney King Riots” on April 29, 1992 –
the four rescuers were black (Reginald Denny is white) who raced to the scene, one of them was a truck driver – they put Denny back in truck and drove him to Daniel Freeman Hospital in Inglewood.
That’s the way it was in Nazi Germany after 1933, when the SAs roamed the streets of Germany
Antifa and BLM are the brown shirts of the Democrat Party.
And the alphabet agencies.
Very interesting article. One thing the left doesn’t consider is the sense of community that exists in many towns and cities. If your friend’s business is being burned to the ground and word gets around, more likely than not neighbors will step in to help. For example you’re home and you get a call that Bob’s Barber Shop is being destroyed and he needs help, your average citizen will go help. The ‘Safari Principle’ forbids that. You’re supposed to stand by and watch your city burn knowing police were called and couldn’t respond. The solution is to build the police force back up and train them in riot prevention. Otherwise kids like Kyle will be placed in harm’s way again. The police have to do the policing and even the most liberal cities are realizing this. Uber-liberal Long Island voted in Republicans because they are sick of crime and the possibility of their homes being damaged. Funding the police is the only solution.
FundingProper training for the police is the only solution.The people of WI should have surrounded their State House.
Not let the governor leave the premises until he sent the troops in.
Seriously, all of us have been very passive ourselves in physically putting pressure on anyone–not even marching ourselves.
So there is no such thing as heros anymore because the entire political left are COWARDS.
I’m needing a break from all of this nonsense. Calgon take me away.

Ask the late Clayton Williams in Texas how that worked out for him…
Sounds like socialist/lover of communism and their dictators said. About women fantasies of being raped by three men. Sanders a male? Would know. ??.
Or another nitwit who recommended if a women’s being raped, she should just pee herself.
Kind of a funny story. If you remember the pictures of Pelosi going to lunch in SF Chinatown, you may have noticed the older Chinese lady in the red vest linking arms with her. That’s Florence Fang, a wealthy, well-connected woman who many consider to be the spokesperson for Bay Area Chinese. Her family owned the SF Examiner, etc.
She and my ex-wife used to be pals. One evening the two of them were going to the SF Herbst Theater for a program, and Florence asked if I would drive them. Sure, I said, but I’m taking my work car, a high-mileage base model Toyota.
So the program ends about 1am and the two are in the back of the beater as we head to the freeway entrance. Traffic slowed, then stopped as a group of about 20 street people up ahead ran in and out of traffic demanding money from drivers, pounding on cars, and threatening drivers.
Lock your doors girls, I said. Then I hear Mrs Fang ask if I I had brought my handgun. Nope, I said. Then, after a pause, I hear “uh, well, you have special training right?”. Nope, I replied .
Then I explained that what I have is a car I don’t care about, and an accelerator. All we need.
Got her home safe and sound. Butnever again received a similar request for transportation.
Pelosi has turned Congress the peoples house into Nancy’s whore house, she is out to screw everyone.
I keep paying those DC whores but I have yet to enjoy any of it.
Doesn’t matter.
Until the folks organizing and funding the systemic violence are brought to account, it will continue.
And that may never happen because they are the same people at the levers of power in our government or behind them pulling the strings.
The only way it stops is if their is a massive cleansing of the Leftists & Globalists from any influence inour government.
Disallow Monopolization is a good start.
That only happens if our American Heritage endures.
Over the last 10 months it’s obvious those in power are working feverishly to destroy what remains of the Republic.
They are playing for keeps.

Excellent link!
~ty~
Just today I was asked “do you know about the guy that got off yesterday for shooting black people”. U asked where they heard that “a girl at work brought it up” I said you’re being lied to. My friend in Australia said news is selling the same story. We re dealing with Soviet level stuff here.
Send them pics of the street scum.
Independent in the U.K. carrying the same version, too. Nobody calls them out. Enraging.
How about Kyles three assailants shouldn’t have charged and attacked a young man, armed with a rifle?
And for one, shouldn’t have taken a pistol to a gunfight, when your opponent is armed with a rifle, shouldn’t have pointed said pistol, if you weren’t prepared to fire, ..
And the list goes on. This will be added to the list of “cases” that feed the “gun control debate”, but for very few will it move the needle….
However, I like to think the gun fanatics (on the left) will not convince ANYONE of their argument, who was not already there.
On the other hand,…PERHAPS a few will be “red-pilled” as a result of this case,…IF they took the time to follow the trial, instead of getting the distorted thru the looking glass media version.
For ALL those who comprise “the enemy”; the MSM, the DNC, the RNC, the IC, the Public education complex, the Medical establishment, the Courts, the Military, etc…..it seems like since the escalator ride, they have gloried in shredding their credibility,…thinking (if they THINK, at all) that credibility has no value.
Credibility is based on TRUST, and while trust is fairly easy to obtain, once lost it is VERY difficult to re-establish.
And they don’t CARE, THAT to me is perhaps the most astounding thing about “the enemy” and their behavior.
I think, for so many years they had to “pretend” to care, and they just got tired of it?
Hubris and arrogance abounds, and there WILL be a price to pay.
I think that they were emboldened and not afraid that anyone including the police would ever shoot them no matter what the provocation! I’m sure they used their “pack attack” tactics including the skateboard as a weapon many times before and never had a problem.
The name Kyle means a straight, narrow channel, while Rittenhouse, German Rettinghousen is translated into the English as ‘those belonging to the family in the marshland’. Where I live it used to be mostly marshlands until settlers dug long straight and narrow channels to drain off the water where crops could then be grown.
Modern interpretation: “Drain the swamp” that we live in. There’s been an exposé since 2016 of the swamp where the Deep State Harlot lives. Since then an ongoing unveiling, and revealing of the true evil nature of these “middlemen”, and “middlewomen” whose goal is not only the destruction of our natural rights but the total elimination of every freedom loving individual on the planet.
“The very atmosphere of firearms anywhere and everywhere restrains evil interference. They deserve a place of honor with all that is good.” – George Washington (1732-1799)
. . . and in case nobody just noticed but the antiquated, so-called “Safari Principle” has just been put down. Hard.
Amen!
I believe that as well. This verdict was huge and they know it. And they know that we know.
We Got This! ❤️??❤️
With the name as Arthur explains, the presence of the G-d of justice and mercy is manifest.
Rule of Safari…my chuckle for the day. Shreds the lefts community narrative quite well. Rule of Safari meet rule .354
In the end the black community is in a no win battle space. Black men butterfly among women. Kids with no fathers. Black men murdering black men. Black kids witnessing death or violence. It’s as though the community is racing towards a black hole they cannot escape. And is the reason blacks and whites want to bring that violence to white neighborhoods. It’s not enough they endure pain themselves but want to thrust it upon others.
Issue is poor black communities refuse to help themselves. They want some government program to pay them for their existence. Equality and equity is a poor filler for values of integrity, responsibility, and good judgement.
As for the mob, their violence believes people won’t act upon their violence because of 90% of folks are civil.
Kyle is a 10 percentile person willing to defend himself against the mob. Free speech is not a right to get in people (minding their own business) faces and yell or attack them.
It’s always mystified me why the Churches/Leaders/Pastors/Prominent Athletes never stand up in the Black Community to call out not only men who do not take responsibility for their actions by impregnating women but also women who allow this to happen…
I know it’s thanks to to the Welfare State created by Dim Lyndon Johnson…but it is destroying the black community as a whole…and perpetuated by the Dim party pushing for reparations…I don’t see an end to it.
In every country and in every age, the priest has been hostile to liberty. He is always in alliance with the despot, abetting his abuses in return for protection to his own.
(Thomas Jefferson)
What influence in fact have Christian ecclesiastical establishments had on civil society? In many instances they have been upholding the thrones of political tyranny. In no instance have they been seen as the guardians of the liberties of the people. Rulers who wished to subvert the public liberty have found in the clergy convenient auxiliaries. A just government, instituted to secure and perpetuate liberty, does not need the clergy.
(James Madison)
Man will never be free until the last king is strangled with the entrails of the last priest.
(Diderot)
Are you and “WhiteFrank” best friends? You should be.
You don’t have any friends educated by Jesuits, do you!
Thanks very much for your post! In my experience Catholic priests are some of the most evil people on the planet and I am not just talking about their pedophilia although that is something to be considered.
The Catholic priests in our local parishes have been responsible for bringing in thousands of illegal aliens many of them thugs and/or criminals, destroying community groups including senior citizens, AA, NA, etc. by not allowing them to use their meeting rooms because Covid.
Since the scamdemic began, they have come down hard on their parishioners when it comes to enforcing all the outrageous edicts from NY’s disgusting Demo Commie governors.
The one thing that hasn’t changed is their constant whining and demands for “donations.”
Like all those “refugee resettlement” orgs, under cover of organized religion NGOs.
chop-chop
Along this line, it’s interesting reading about how, long ago, the Catholic church utterly screwed the people of Ireland.
They don’t call them out simply because they know, better than anybody, that it’s a hopeless gesture!
Darren Wilson had a service REVOLVER? Really?
After everything President Trump did for Wisconsin, Michigan, Kentucky and Pennsylvania they all voted for a Democrat Governor and two years later except Kentucky…voted for Biden! As far as I’m concerned they are getting exactly what they deserve!
Ah, but did they really vote for Biden?
With Dominion Voting Machines. Really doubt that they voted for Brandon.
Being armed for your own protection is a deterrent to the safari principle.
Being armed means nothing. One must commit to lawfully using your arms when there’s no other recourse. Trigger time on paper is A LOT different than putting rounds in a person.
That Mike is so true, paper targets don’t usually move, swing bats,pipes, 2x4s etc.
Also most normal people really have an aversion to killing another human. Many of our young people having been in combat have issues with PTSD.
Point I am attempting to make is that moral people will have issues with death.
Amoral people have no compass, and it doesn’t bother them. Younger and younger people, children are / have become amoral.
Why, not sure, but I am sure there is a multitude of reasons.
If more business owners defied the “safari principle” maybe things would change? Instead of boarding up their businesses, have a group of men with guns guarding the businesses and shoot upon anyone trying to break in or to burn property. I wonder if that would put a stop to the looting since the police don’t seem to want to protect property owners and the FBI supports the violence.
police were there to protect rioters. makes sense now that we know the FIB was orchestrating everything. wouldn’t go well for the officer who shot the FIB or their assets.
Wouldn’t that be known as the Korean Principle?
Thank you, Sundance for all your insight it is the best, Tinker gives thumbs up to Homebrew laundry soap.
The safari narrative sounds a lot like the short skirt narrative. Or in Muslim neighborhoods, the uncovered narrative.
Victim-blaming cultures, cry-bullies.
Has something already been put in the water?
Because I never thought I’d see the collective madness and utter insanity that seems to exist in most of America. The anger and rage from coast to coast. A permanent psychosis. Nothing unites us as a country. The powers that be have instigated this soft civil war and are fanning the flames.
Which is exactly how they want it.
We find that whole communities suddenly fix their minds upon one object and go mad in its pursuit; that millions of people become simultaneously impressed with one delusion, and run after it, till their attention is caught by some new folly more captivating than the first.
― Charles MacKay, Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds
In other words, just like children. This rioting generation has been indulged, have obviously never heard the meaningful word “NO”, and if they have, it seems to not have been enforced. I could go on, but what we are seeing is a pampered, cosseted generation (likely absent father in many cases) and an equally indulgent ” justice” system. Not a good combination.
Betsy: Pls remember that the propagandist relies on convincing you that the opinions of 5% of the people represent the opinions of 90%. Do not let the echos of Twatter and the MSM fool you. It’s not real.
I always remember it. They are so transparent for those of us who not only look but see. We also connect dots rather well.
I think of all the social platforms, Twitter has been the most destructive.
Keep your windows rolled up and do not engage in eye contact with the animals.
Rittenhouse engaged in mostly peaceful safari.
Regardless of Safari…. you now know what to do…… let them chase you and run…..slowing down as you go…..until you turn and POP!…….. run a little more and….POP…… run a little more….and you get the drift……
Its cull season if you hunt right eh?
The leftist thugs better take note of the second definition of safari and hope patriots don’t start following that principle.
This is not a correct analogue. The Rittenhouse acquittal has the left outraged because you are not supposed to fight back against BLM and ANTIFA. You are supposed to allow them to burn your city to the ground and not say a damn thing about it much less defend it. Kyle did not take a knee and they can’t allow that.
Those kneeling are the grifters.
Blasphemers.
Sundance you forgot about the ” Insurance” principle….
All too many times we hear “Insurance will cover that”
It was said at the trial as well, when binger was asking questions of the lying car sellers…
Your insurance covered everything right?
Defense should hve objected to that question.
Prosecutors Find Mail-In Jury Votes At 3AM, Rittenhouse Now Guilty | The Babylon Bee
Kyle met all the criteria for an easy target by the Bolsheviks:
1. White
2. Poor
3. Blue collar family
4. Christian
5. Gun owner
A certain “irony” here is that of the four, Rittenhouse and the 3 he shot in self-defense, Rittenhouse looks the least white.
Rittenhouse was the only one not funded by the state.
$o true.
The three shot were easy pawns and worked cheap!
Drug addicts just want to get high. Thats how they get paid.
Great article Sundance. Just another run of the mill communist takeover by whatever means they can manufacture.
The Kyle verdict actually gave us hope. Hope that we can stand our ground and not be afraid that the law will be twisted against us. I think there’s been significant hesitation over the years and maybe we’re at a point now where we aren’t going to give in to the mob any more. I hope so. Where I live, even the Grannies have rifles and know how to use ’em, which is probably why the mob doesn’t come here.

“Kyle Rittenhouse made the mistake of trying to impede violence, arson and rioting supported by the political left and their media allies. Rittenhouse paid a heavy price for not following the rules of the safari, and that is why they are so determined to make an example of him.”
And it was Saint Anthony who said, “A time is coming [it’s here now] when men will go mad, and when they see someone who is not mad, they will attack him (or her), saying ‘You are mad; you are not like us.‘”
A time is coming [it’s here now] when men [democrats, hollywood, msm, nevertrumpers, CIA, FBI, DOJ, DOD] will go mad, and when they see someone [like Trump] who is not mad, they will attack him, saying ‘You are mad; you are not like us.’
– Saint Anthony [updated]
On a planet of insane people [democrats, hollywood, msm, nevertrumpers, CIA, FBI, DOJ, DOD], the sane man [like Trump] must appear insane.
– Mr. Spock, whose script writers seems to have read Saint Anthony
I’m surprised the he didn’t actually ask that question.
He said it, alright.
sotto voce
All the riots were planned. People were paid to riot. People were brought in from many places. Weapons were staged in certain areas. Leaders were mixed into the crowds. Signals were pre arranged. The Police were NOT present. Law and order was not there. All law enforcement members that swore the oath to defend and protect lied.
That’s it in a nutshell! It’s like calling the fire department and they race to your house then stand there watching it burn down!
And you wouldn’t go into Union Sq. in SF last night, or Portland, or the Miracle Mile, or downtown Seattle etc. etc.
Blue controlled areas are blue controlled and their rules apply.
We ought to change the name of the country to the Dis-United States. That’s a much more appropriate name and has been for a very long time.
I don’t know enough about Kenosha to know who owns it, our side or theirs. And that determines who should go there and who shouldn’t. (Think Bosnia)
But if it’s contested territory, think twice before venturing in.
You either live in Blue or Red America but you don’t live in both. When will our understanding catch up to this reality?
And for the record, DC is theirs. That’s why 1/6 guys are locked up.
“And for the record, DC is theirs. That’s why 1/6 guys are locked up.”
And that’s why Trump was thrown out.
Also, the judiciary system is theirs and that’s why the Rittenhouse case is so galling to them. It’s like you’re strolling down the street in their neighborhoods.
I will not submit. If placed in a threatening situation by violent, predatory blacks, I will defend myself and those with me or in my vicinity.
Refusal to accept the left’s demands and rules is how we ultimately triumph.
Kyle Rittenhouse is a hero and example for all of us.
Great article and so is the one linked to. I have passed it to many.
I’d love for the Safari Principle to take hold as a term and I’d love to shove it in elected official’s faces.
We’re just supposed to be watchers on a bus/ in a jeep, watching as the animals tear apart all we’ve built.
BS to that.
So the ‘safari principle’ is LE not doing their job.
Usually at the order of a mayor or governor.
Most LE do not want the streets to be battlefields. It wasn’t uncommon last summer to see LE speaking out against the policies of standing down laid out by the politicians.
The answer to the safari principle is “freedom of navigation.” Recall how President Reagan sent the U.S. Navy into the Gulf of Sidra claimed by Libya. Libya launched suface to air missles and then 2 MIGs at our patrolling aircraft – – we shot them down .
Too broad. They still do their job. At least those that are left and willing to follow the everchanging rules of engagement and selected exemptions that keep piling up. They must learn the new rules and most are adapting quite well unfortunately. I wonder how recruiting is coming? Same for the armed forces.
