Kyle Rittenhouse spoke to the Turning Point USA chapter at Kent State University on Tuesday evening, following a protest featuring multiple organizations condemning his visit.
Rittenhouse made headlines several years ago as he faced charges connected to the shooting deaths of two men, which happened during a 2020 protest in Kenosha, Wisconsin. He was later found not guilty as his trial concluded in November 2021.
Now, Rittenhouse is on a national speaking tour, and on this night he addressed a crowd at Kiva Auditorium at the Kent Student Center. During his speech, he shared his perspective of what happened during the 2020 incident.
"I was in between those four vehicles with the guy who threatened to kill me now ripping my gun out of my hand trying to steal it from me so he could try to kill me with it," he said. "That's when I defended myself against him. I shot him four times and he passed away." --
