Celebrities contribute to Katrina relief

Published:Wednesday, September 7, 2005Updated:Saturday, September 10, 2005 (Travolta, Preston, Moore, Stones, Three Doors Down, Johnson, Smith)

After Hurricane Katrina passed across the United States, various artists and media stars have leapt at a call to action.

John Travolta and wife Kelly Preston flew his private plane to deliver a load of supplies and tetanus vaccine to Baton Rouge and New Orleans. Part of a Scientology project which has been using their non-massage “assists”, in an interview Preston mentioned that “auditing” had also been performed on victims.

Kevin Smith is holding an online auction on his Web site.

Sean Penn actually went to Louisiana. After loading down a small boat with his entourage, it was discovered one of them had neglected to seal a hole in the bottom. Penn was wearing a white vest rather than a life vest while bailing. After the motor wouldn’t start, the crew paddled down a flooded New Orleans street. Bystanders jeered at whether any victims could fit aboard the crowded craft. No report on rescue stunts. Local authorities had previously been criticized for not allowing volunteer boaters in to help.

Morgan Freeman, whose home fared well, is organizing an online auction of celebrity items at charityfolks.com, to benefit the American Red Cross Disaster Relief Fund.

Curt Schilling opened his home to a family of nine driven out of their New Orleans home. The Schilling family will provide housing for the Fields for a year while their home in New Orleans is rebuilt and repaired.

Some celebrities “graced” disaster zones with their presence in the days following Katrina.

Singer Macy Gray and television personality Phil McGraw visited Houston’s Astrodome.

Celebrities visiting New Orleans include Michael Moore (opposite side of lake), singer Harry Connick, Jr., CNN’s Anderson Cooper, actor Jamie Foxx, singer Faith Hill, actor Matthew McConaughey, singer Lisa Marie Presley, comedian Chris Rock, and The Oprah Winfrey Show contributor Lisa Ling and interior decorator Nate Berkus.

Oprah Winfrey visited New Orleans, Houston, and Mississippi.

Australia Votes 2007: Labor releases tax plan

Friday, October 19, 2007

Wikinews Australia has in-depth coverage of this issue: Election 2007

Labor has released its tax plan, following the announcement from the Liberal/National coalition that they would provide tax cuts costing AU$34 billion if re-elected. The government has placed pressure on Labor since their announcement on Monday, urging Mr Rudd to release the opposition’s tax plan.

Under Labor’s system, the government’s planned tax cuts for Australians earning more than $180,000 per year would be scrapped, saving $3 billion. The savings would be spent on health and education for working families.

Speaking in Canberra today, Mr Rudd announced that if elected he would spend $2.3 billion on tax rebates for parents with children in primary and secondary schools. The refunds would be available to those who are eligible for Family Tax Benefit A. Mr Rudd claims the plan would be available to around two million children.

A Rudd government would offer a 50 percent education rebate to parents, up to $750 per child for primary school aged children and up to $1500 for children in secondary school. The rebate could be used for a variety of purchases but not for school fees. Mr Rudd said the rebate would help to equip children for the digital age.

“If mum and dad are spending money on buying a laptop, spending money on buying a home computer, spending money on … purchasing internet connection, education software printers and books, those expenditures, (they) will be eligible to claim the 50 per cent education tax refund that we are putting forward,” Mr Rudd said.

“We need to equip our young people with the skills necessary to participate in the digital economy of the 21st century.”

Mr Rudd vigorously denied that he rushed the plan out after the government’s announcement. “We have been working on this education tax refund for the better part of four, five months,” Mr Rudd told reporters.

Labor would spend $400 million of the savings on Labor’s national health reform plan, while the remaining $200 million would go to the budget surplus.

Under the health reform plan, an elective surgery strategy would be implemented with the aim of reducing waiting times. Mr Rudd said the waiting times experienced by some Australians were unacceptable.

“We intend … to establish through the use of other funds as well a plan which would create a national elective-surgery strategy to reduce waiting times across the nation,” Mr Rudd said.

About 25,000 Australians are on waiting lists for elective surgery despite having passed the clinically acceptable waiting period, he said.

“That’s unacceptable,” he said.

Mr Rudd also said that Labor would embrace tax reform by flattening the number of tax rates from four to three, at 15, 30 and 40 percent by 2012-13. This contrasts to the government’s planned tax cuts bringing rates to 15, 30, 25 and 40 percent.

If Labor is elected, those paying the highest tax rate would pay around $10 a week more than they would under a Howard government. Mr Rudd said that he was not waging a class war and believed those paying the top tax rate wouldn’t mind investing in the country.

“If you’re on $180 grand and more, as people like myself are, I don’t think you really need it just now,” said Mr Rudd.

“What I say instead is that most people in that bracket wouldn’t mind an investment going into bridging the digital divide for the whole country.”

“If we were waging some sort of class warfare, we wouldn’t be in the business of outlining the long term goals that we’ve put forward – a flattening, prospectively, of the tax system down to three rates rather than four with a top marginal tax rate of 40.”

The government has criticised the plan, with Treasurer Peter Costello claiming that Mr Rudd copied “91.5 percent” of their tax policy. He accused the opposition of never having a tax plan.

“Mr Rudd talks about education – if he’d have brought his exam paper in after copying 91.5 per cent of the answers from the student sitting next to him, he would have got an F for fail.”

The Treasurer said that it would be unlikely that a Rudd government could deliver tax cuts as it could not manage the economy well enough to deliver them.

“Unless you can manage the Australian economy, these tax cuts will not be deliverable,” he said.

“Mr Rudd and Mr Swan do not understand the Australian economy. This is entirely clear from the fact they have spent four days copying 91.5 per cent of our tax plan.”

Mr Costello said that a Rudd government would have a dilemma if elected, in that he could not follow the coalition’s policies.

“He never had a tax policy,” Mr Costello said.

“He hadn’t done the work, five days after our tax policy, his great contribution to the tax debate in this country is to say ‘me too, but’.”

“The trouble with ‘me too, but’ is, it’s OK for Mr Rudd to say ‘me too, I’ll be like Howard and Costello and adopt their policies’, but if he gets in Howard and Costello won’t be there writing the policies.”

Mr Costello said that when Kevin Rudd runs out of ideas, the union movement would step in to provide guidance. “So who is going to say ‘me to, but’ to them? I think the union movement will be giving him a few ideas,” said Mr Costello.

Seeds placed in Norwegian vault as agricultural ‘insurance policy’

Wednesday, February 27, 2008

The Svalbard Global Seed Vault, a vault containing millions of seeds from all over the world, saw its first deposits on Tuesday. Located 800 kilometers from the North Pole on the Norwegian island of Spitsbergen, the vault has been referred to by European Commission president José Manuel Barroso as a “frozen Garden of Eden“. It is intended to preserve crop supplies and secure biological diversity in the event of a worldwide disaster.

“The opening of the seed vault marks a historic turning point in safeguarding the world’s crop diversity,” said Cary Fowler, executive director of the Global Crop Diversity Trust which is in charge of collecting the seed samples. The Norwegian government, who owns the bank, built it at a cost of $9.1 million.

At the opening ceremony, 100 million seeds from 268,000 samples were placed inside the vault, where there is room for over 2 billion seeds. Each of the samples originated from a different farm or field, in order to best ensure biological diversity. These crop seeds included such staples as rice, potatoes, barley, lettuce, maize, sorghum, and wheat. No genetically modified crops were included. (Beyond politics they are generally sterile so of no use.)

It is very important for Africa to store seeds here because anything can happen to our national seed banks.

Constructed deep inside a mountain and protected by concrete walls, the “doomsday vault” is designed to withstand earthquakes, nuclear warfare, and floods resulting from global warming. Norwegian Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg called it an “insurance policy” against such threats.

With air-conditioned temperatures of -18 degrees Celsius, experts say the seeds could last for an entire millennium. Some crops will be able to last longer, like sorghum, which the Global Crop Diversity Trust says can last almost 20 millenniums. Even if the refrigeration system fails, the vaults are expected to stay frozen for 200 years.

The Prime Minister said, “With climate change and other forces threatening the diversity of life that sustains our planet, Norway is proud to be playing a central role in creating a facility capable of protecting what are not just seeds, but the fundamental building blocks of human civilization.” Stoltenberg, along with Kenyan Nobel Peace Prize laureate Wangari Maathai, made the first deposit of rice to the vault.

“It is very important for Africa to store seeds here because anything can happen to our national seed banks,” Maathai said. The vault will operate as a bank, allowing countries to use their deposited seeds free of charge. It will also serve as a backup to the thousands of other seed banks around the world.

“Crop diversity will soon prove to be our most potent and indispensable resource for addressing climate change, water and energy supply constraints and for meeting the food needs of a growing population,” Cary Fowler said.

Four dead, at least 15 injured after gunman opens fire at fitness center in Bridgeville, Pennsylvania

Wednesday, August 5, 2009

Four people have been shot and killed and at least 15 wounded when a gunman opened fire inside a LA Fitness center in Bridgeville, Pennsylvania. The gunman was among the dead.

Reports say the man walked into a dance room where an all-female Latin dance class was in session, turned off the lights and began to shoot people. CNN reports that the gunman was a “middle-aged white male.” One witness said he was carrying a duffel bag, which he put down before shooting into the crowd. After opening fire, he turned the gun on himself. At least 30 people are reported to have been in the room at the time of the shooting.

Allegheny County police Superintendent Charles Moffatt said, “I’ve never seen nothing quite like this. It was very chaotic. […] There’s a good belief that the shooter is deceased.”

Collier Township Police Chief Tom Devin stated that the police, “believe the shooter committed suicide at the scene but we’re not positive.” Police report that the shooter’s motive may have been a domestic dispute with one of the exercisers.

Mike Hentosz, a witness who was inside the gym, said, “I feel like it’s a dream. I don’t know what to think of it.” A woman participating in the class, Nicole, said that 10 minutes into the class, “a middle-aged white male walked into the class. He had a big gym bag. […] He looked out of place in a class full of women.” When he began firing, she reported, she ran out of the gym and escaped in passerby’s car.

Navy helping New Orleans pets

Saturday, September 17, 2005

The Spanish word “tortuga” means “turtle.” But in the wake of the New Orleans disaster, the USS Tortuga is helping other animals.

For nearly two weeks now, sailors from Tortuga’s repair division have devoted much of their time during this disaster relief operation to ensure the health and comfort of displaced pets.

September 4th, just after the ship moored to a pier at Naval Support Activity (NSA) New Orleans, HT1(SW) Mark Hanley and DC1(SW) Antony Graves gathered materials from the repair shop on board to construct a kennel along the levee. The facility they made soon became a popular shelter for the homeless animals of the storm.

Tortuga’s search and rescue team brought aboard more than 170 displaced citizens during this past week, providing them with food, water, medical aid and a place to sleep.

Tortuga’s makeshift kennel, named ‘Camp Milo & Otis,’ has housed as many as 90 dogs, eight cats, one rabbit, one guinea pig, a pair of parakeets and a flightless pigeon during the past week of operation.

Currently, there are 14 dogs that remain in Tortuga’s care, as many of the other pets have been taken to animal shelters in the area for extra medical attention, or been claimed by their owners upon arrival to Tortuga. The pets that Tortuga has registered have all been in the hands of professional veterinarians assigned to provide expert medical attention to the members of Camp Milo & Otis.

Dr. Kelly Crowdis and Dr. Latina Gambles, both from Tuskegee University and Christian Veterinary Missions, have treated many of the pets for infection, dehydration, malnourishment and broken bones at the Camp during the past week.

“The animals were bathed and assessed before physical interaction with the sailors,” said Dr. Crowdis. “They’ve been given immunizations, antibiotics and medications based on their medical needs.”

Dr. Crowdis added, “What these sailors have done on their own has been such a heart-warming thing. As an animal lover, it is so comforting to know that everyone cares about the animals in addition to the human lives rescued from the storm. I’m very pleased with these guys for taking the initiative to construct this kennel.”

Graves, Hanley and other members of their division have consistently bathed, fed, walked and given special attention to every dog, every day.

“We play with them,” said Hanley. “We take them out of their kennels to give them attention every day. And we’ll continue to do that for as long as our ship’s mission keeps us here.”

September 11th, the Agricultural Center at Louisiana State University donated supplies to “Camp Milo & Otis” in support of Tortuga’s efforts to help the animal victims.

”We got medical supplies, bowls, food, cages, leashes, collars, toys, cat litter and cleaning supplies from these people yesterday,” said Graves. “It’s nice to know that so many people out there have heard about what our ship is doing, and responded by donating so much to support us the best they can.”

A photo gallery of unclaimed pets is on the USS Tortuga’s web site.

As part of disaster plans, the Department of Homeland Security has also deployed Veterinary Medical Assistance Teams to provide medical care to pets and livestock, as well as provide any needed veterinary medical care for search and rescue dogs.

There are over 3,850 animals being sheltered around the state. If someone is looking for a pet they should contact their nearest Humane Society or go online to http://www.petfinder.org// . More information is also available at http://www.vetmed.lsu.edu//.

Cryptocurrency Wallet Development Realizes The Future Of Payments

There is an uncompromising upward trajectory when it comes to crypto prices. There is a drastic increase in the number of individuals investing in digital currencies and as a result, cryptocurrencies like Ethereum and Bitcoin are hitting their all-time highs. Every year, we witness new entrants in the global digital currency wallets, leaving plenty of options for the investors. All of this means that there will be an increase in the demand for cryptocurrency wallet development.

Cryptocurrencies can be stored in a variety of wallet options. Similar to a password, the cryptocurrency wallets store a private key for every individual coin. The best way to recharge cryptocurrency to a digital wallet is to do it via a cryptocurrency exchange that people use to buy currency (Id Est Gemini or Coinbase). However, many mainstream companies like Robinhood and Paypal also incorporate options to buy, store, and sell cryptocurrency.

What is Cryptocurrency?

Protected by cryptography, cryptocurrencies are a form of virtual currency that is nearly impossible to counterfeit or double-spend. Most of the cryptocurrencies are built on distributed ledgers and use decentralized networks which are built on blockchain technology. Cryptocurrencies are not issued by central government authorities, which makes them immune to government policies across the globe.

How Do Cryptocurrency Wallets Function?

  • The wallet stores crypto transactions in an unalterable blockchain network.
  • The cryptocurrency wallet contains all the public as well as private keys related to the currencies.
  • When a wallet user sends cryptocurrencies to another user, he actually transfers the digital coin ownership to the recipient.
  • The users are only allowed to transfer their digital coins if their private key matches the public key.
  • The public key is used to receive the funds whereas the private key is used to validate the transactions.

Types of Cryptocurrency Wallets1. Desktop Wallets

Desktop cryptocurrency wallets can be downloaded on a desktop PC or a laptop and only be accessed via that particular computer. Most desktop wallets are secure, however their security can be compromised if there is a cyberattack on your computer. In the case of a virus or hack, the users would lose all of their funds. Some popular examples of desktop wallets are Bitcoin Knots and Armory.

2. Virtual Wallets

Virtual wallets for cryptocurrency are based on the cloud and can be accessed from any location using any device. Storing private keys online has become safer and convenient with the advent of blockchain technology. Still, they are vulnerable to cyberattacks, and there is a chance of theft, as cloud services are controlled and managed by third-parties.

3. Mobile Wallets

These cryptocurrency wallets can be accessed from mobile devices using an app. Many retail stores and supermarkets accept payments via mobile cryptocurrency wallets. However, mobile wallets have more limited cold storage capacity than desktop wallets. Some popular examples of mobile cryptocurrency wallets are Bither, Green Address, and BitGo.

4. Hardware Wallets

Hardware wallets are very different from mobile, desktop, and virtual wallets, as they don’t store user’s private keys online. Instead the keys are stored on a hardware drive like USB. These cryptocurrency wallets incorporate robust security measures and are capable of executing online transactions. Hardware wallets support various digital currencies and are compatible with different web interfaces. Some popular hardware wallets are Ledger Nano S, Keep Key, and Trezor.

5. Paper Wallets

Paper cryptocurrency wallets are the most secure means to store cryptocurrencies. The software generates the private and public keys that can be printed. The wallet holders can easily transfer funds from their software wallets to a paper wallet. The users can scan their QR codes to transfer friends back to the software wallets.Bitaddressis a perfect example of paper cryptocurrency wallet.

Current Cryptocurrency Trends in the Market

Bitcoin was the first cryptocurrency developed and all other cryptocurrencies developed post-bitcoin launch are often denoted as Altcoins or alternate coins. Being the best alternative to fiat currency, cryptocurrencies will surely disrupt the current monetary system.

As per Markets and Markets, In 2019, the cryptocurrency market was valued at $1.03 billion. Moreover, by the end of 2024 the market is projected to grow to $1.40 billion with a CAGR of 6.18% during this period. The high cost of cross-border remittance, monetary value fluctuations, investment growth in crypto venture capital, and the transparency that distributed ledger technology brings have influenced the market growth.

Leading Cryptocurrency Wallets in 2021

Majourly, the cryptocurrency wallets can be divided into two categories – Software Wallets and Hardware Wallets.

Best Hardware Wallets for Cryptocurrency1. Ledger Nano S

Since its inception in 2014, the Ledger Company has made big strides. This hardware wallet is perfect for anyone who is serious about their cryptocurrency security. Ledger Nano S has its own operating system called BOLOS and features 2-factor authentication.

2. Trezor One

Trezor is renowned for developing the first hardware cryptocurrency wallet using modern cryptography. The Trezor One crypto wallet was designed and developed in Czech Republic by a stellar cyber security team and cryptocurrency advocates. In Czech, the word trezor translates to “vault”. Similar to Ledger Nano S, Trezor One also use two-factor authentication to authenticate transactions.

Best Software Wallets for Cryptocurrency1. Coinbase

With a motive to enable anyone access Bitcoin anywhere, Coinbase is the catalyst in creating an open financial infrastructure. Currently, more than 35 million users across 100 countries trust Coinbase for their cryptocurrency related transactions.

2. Gemini

Gemini is the industry-leading cryptocurrency exchange accessible via both mobile and PC. The app users can track cryptocurrency prices in real-time using the app itself. The app also allows users to set price alerts so that the users can act immediately on price fluctuations.

Steps for Cryptocurrency Wallet Development

It isn’t easy to develop a cryptocurrency wallet that is user-friendly and secure at the same time. The cryptocurrency wallet developers need to have a clear understanding of which type of wallet application they want to build. The following are the typical process for cryptocurrency wallet development:

1. Define Your Cryptocurrency App Type and Concept

As there are several cryptocurrency wallet apps already out there, there is no need for you to reinvent the wheel. Your app idea can be similar to the existing cryptocurrency wallets; hence, you can learn from your competitors and speed up your cryptocurrency wallet development process.

Your answer to the following questions will help you define the crowdfunding app concept:

  • What type of cryptocurrency wallet do you want to develop?
  • What will be the USP of your cryptocurrency wallet?
  • Which cryptocurrencies do you want to support with your app?
  • How will you differentiate your app from the competition?

2. Evaluate Existing Market Scenario

When you know the type of cryptocurrency app that you want to develop, it’s time for you to analyze the market. In the earlier section of this article I’ve talked about the types and trends of cryptocurrency wallets, and the top existing cryptocurrency e-wallets in the market.

I recommend you to do a SWOT (Strengths, Weakness, Opportunities, and Threats) analysis to know how to win the competition. Try to identify the USP of top cryptocurrency wallet apps and replicate the strategies for your app.

3. Design UI/UX

Yes, designing FinTech apps is quite challenging. ManyFinTech developersdirectly skip to UI/UX designing without creating mockups for their apps. To be noted that mockups are essential when it comes to FinTech app development. Wireframes and mockups allow FinTech companies to identify user flow and build user-friendly information architecture. At Nimble AppGenie, our designers use Mockingbot and Axure for wireframing and mockups.

4. Develop Technical Architecture and Backend

Your cryptocurrency app performance heavily depends on the technical architecture. Several aspects like user interface, database, workflow, service tools are part of the technical architecture. You can refer to the following illustration to understand technical architecture better.

When your cryptocurrency app’s technical architecture is ready, you should start developing the backend. Backend development is a lengthy process as the developers would have to set up the development environment and build internal and integrate external APIs to create robust app’s backend.

For backend development, you either use a SaaS solution or develop the entire infrastructure by yourself. I prefer using a ready to implement SaaS solution i.e. Cloudkit, AWS Mobile Hub, and Firebase. By using SaaS software solutions, we are able to save time and money for our clients. However, apps that require personalized features and have rigid requirements need to be developed from scratch.

Some other recommendations for cryptocurrency wallet backend development are:

Use Bitcoin libraries for iOS and Android.Since most of the cryptocurrencies are open source, there is no need to reinvent the wheel to create your cryptocurrency wallet. It is sufficient to utilize specific libraries like Coinbase SDK or Bitcoin SDK. Based on the type of your cryptocurrency wallet, we can suggest the best technology for developing your app.

Synchronize your wallet into the blockchain via several APIs. Distributed ledger Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) will allow you to synchronize your cryptocurrency wallet with the blockchain ecosystem. The most common APIs are Factom, Bitcore, and Coinbase.

Add payment feature. If you want your users to make payments via your app, you should empower them with the ability to pay via cryptocurrency. You can integrate cryptocurrency payment services like BitPay or BitPOS to enable this functionality in your app.

5. Frontend Development

First thing first, you need a responsive design. Your app should respond immediately when users input a command. The user experience needs to be top-notch. The most crucial thing about the cryptocurrency wallet frontend is that it should prove the crypto benefits with a sense of reliability. The wallet will be accessing real-time crypto market data, which is very essential for their decision making.

TheFinTech UX/UXdesigners will replicate the designs created during the wireframing and mockups process. HTML, CSS, and JavaScript are among the primary technologies UI/UX designers use to develop app frontend. They’ll be integrating several third-party APIs to gather real-time currency data from the market.

6. Testing

Testing is an indispensable part of everysoftware development life cycle. No matter whichsoftware development methodologyyou are using, testing will be there at the end of every sprint. The quality analysts check the app functionalities and code, and also compare it with theoriginal requirement document.

When the first testing spring is done, the QA team forwards the software code back to the development teams and asks them to resolve the errors/bugs. Afterwards, the development team makes the required changes and sends the final draft back to the QA team. The app can only be released when it gets a green flag from the QA team.

Necessary Features for Cryptocurrency Wallets

Features for cryptocurrency wallets are no different than other FinTech applications. Starting from the seamless registration process, followed by KYC and AML compliances, the cryptocurrency app would require you to pay significant attention to the user experience because app abandonment rate is high when it comes to FinTech apps.

Features like Trading and exchange are quite difficult to implement in comparison to the process forinvestment apps. Cryptocurrency apps are required to be integrated with the cryptocurrency ecosystem in order to receive real-time updates.

However, following are the feature you should consider incorporating in your cryptocurrency wallet app:

  1. Seamless onboarding
  2. User account management
  3. Robust security
  4. QR-code scanning
  5. Cryptocurrency management (send, receive, and store cryptocurrencies)
  6. Trading and exchange cryptocurrencies
  7. Push notifications

Conclusion

Indeed, cryptocurrencies are the future of digital payments. The rise of bitcoin has impacted the global monetary ecosystem. Several studies have revealed that the cryptocurrencies market will continue to grow and reach unprecedented levels.

Keeping this growth in mind, it is evident that there will be an increase in the demand for cryptocurrency wallet development.

Suspect in Kenosha, Wisconsin protester killings released from jail on US$2 million bond

Sunday, November 22, 2020

Kyle Rittenhouse, the suspect in a shooting of protesters in Kenosha, Wisconsin, United States that left two people dead, was released from a Wisconsin jail Friday after his lawyers posted US$2 million bond.

His lawyers had reportedly set up a drive to collect donations for the defendant. His sister made public requests for assistance in raising funds for her brother’s bail. Shortly after Rittenhouse’s release, one of his lawyers posted a photo to Twitter showing him and actor Ricky Schroder standing next to each other and smiling.

A resident of Antioch, Illinois, Rittenhouse is accused of crossing state lines and shooting and killing two people who were participating in demonstrations protesting the shooting of Jacob Blake. One other person was injured in the altercation. Rittenhouse’s charges include intentional homicide and illegally possessing a firearm. If convicted, Rittenhouse could receive up to a lifetime prison sentence.

Rittenhouse was not old enough to own or possess a firearm in the state of Illinois at the time of the incident. He claimed to have obtained his weapon by having an older friend purchase it on his behalf using stimulus money Rittenhouse received from the state during the coronavirus lockdown. A suspect in Wisconsin has been charged for allegedly providing the weapon to Rittenhouse.

Rittenhouse turned himself in to authorities on the morning following the shooting, and his lawyers have claimed the defendant acted in self defense. Court Commissioner Loren Keating said he considered Rittenhouse a flight risk, prior to setting the US$2 million bond. Rittenhouse, in remarks to The Washington Post, contended he would have died had he not been armed that night. Some conservative groups have come to Rittenhouse’s defense regarding the incident.
