Posting on Twitter recently, Kyle Rittenhouse, the kid forced to defend himself with an AR-15 when in Kenosha, Wisconsin to defend a friend’s business from the 2020 rioters, announced that he’d started a 2nd Amendment-focused YouTube channel.
Posting about the new venture, Kyle said:
Hello! I am super excited to announce I have started a YouTube channel! I look forward to creating content about guns/gun safety and talking about the 2nd Amendment with all of you!

In the description of the first video on the linked YouTube channel, Kyle said: “Hello! I am super excited to announce I will be starting a Youtube channel! I look forward to creating content about guns and talking about the 2nd amendment with all of you!”
Here’s that video, in which famed gun YouTuber Brandon Herrera appears with Kyle:

In the video, Kyle said:
My name is Kyle Rittenhouse. You might remember me as the kid who defended himself with a firearm during the 2020 riots in Kenosha, Wisconsin. Join me in my journey to learn everything I can about new and vintage firearms and help to defend the Second Amendment.
“Shall not be infringed.”
The channel already has 64.7K subscribers.
The linked Twitter profile is Kyle’s Twitter, “This Is Kyle R“. In addition to posting about the YouTube channel and the civil suit he now faces over Kenosha on that page (sadly it holds no fun details about his girlfriend or personal life), Kyle pledged to support 2nd Amendment candidates when he’s able to this election cycle, saying:
It will be my first time voting this year, and I look forward to supporting candidates who will protect the second amendment. 💪🏼
