    Good to see he's raising real money on there, too. I was worried the GoFundMe shutdown would hamper his ability to raise funds.

    I still don't think driving up there with a gun was the right thing to do, but after watching all the footage it seems like a legitimate self-defense case, and while initially I believed the people that said him carrying the rifle was illegal in Wisconsin, after looking at the actual law his carry was actually legal. At this point it seems like the only possible crime might have to do with crossing state lines, but at that point they'd just be convicting because this prosecutor can't get him on the murder charges, which is bullshit anyways.

    Is it just me or the website freezes your browsers too? I tried three different browsers and all of them froze and phone turned warm. I hope some rogue organisations are not injecting malicious scripts or something to sabotage the fundraiser.

    More likely that whoever coded the site is a shit coder.

    Less likely I guess. The way the site is weighing down my entire phone suggests this is probably something more nefarious and recent, quite a few people have donated already...they couldn't have with such issue persisting through out the campaign. Someone doesn't want the fundraiser to go on I guess.

    Could be a while(true) loop. That's one of the dangers of while loops, if not handled properly, they just go on and on forever.

    Most likely answer would be that a ton of people are visiting the site to donate and it's getting bogged down.

    Yes, that should result in the site being extremely slow, traffic overload or ddos. But when its slowing down the device the website is being accessed on, it should mean some rouge script is clogging up resources.

    Much appreciated.

    Meanwhile, GoFundMe tweeted to publicise the campaign of Anthony Huber, describing him as a 'hero'. A man who was seen on video chasing and then viciously attacking Rittenhouse with a skateboard prior to Rittenhouse shooting him in apparent self-defence. For bonus points, Hannah Gittings, the girlfriend of Huber, is running the campaign and currently has an open warrant for refusing a breathalyser test after being found drink driving. Such wonderful people! They also publicised the GoFundMe for Jacob Blake, a man seen on video assaulting police officers prior to being shot while walking away and reaching in to the car in which it is now known he had a knife.

    It seems everyone hate whites.

    What a retarded statement. The GoFundMe shutdown was a cowardly move to avoid bad press because of the controversy surrounding Rittenhouse, or at worst it was because of some liberal bias. It wasn't because he was white.
