In 2013, I lived next door to a Teen SWAT Camp for 2 weeks — that sounds pretty similar to the Police Cadet Training that Kyle Rittenhouse was involved with.
I watched as they brainwashed teens to think all protestors were potential murderers. And they did this EVERY.NIGHT.

On the last night, they brought in Blackhawks and Bearcats, and created a "game" of protesters with plastic bottles & cardboard shields vs. riot cops with bean bags & plastic shields. They got points for hitting the other team, subduing them, etc. It was like Fascist Dodgeball.
Here& #39;s the thing: if you tell a teenager that protesters are dangerous rats, and then reward them for beating up those rats with rides in a Bearcat tanks, that indoctrination is going to stick.
Just like it did with Kyle Rittenhouse.
