Rittenhouse Effect

Its when a person walks into your stronghold, starts shit and/or threaten you (even if just by your very presence), then later claim self defense when you try and stop them.

Principal: "The guy went into the girls bathroom and then proceeded to snap your daughter's bra. Your daughter then slugged him, knocking him to the ground. He then hit her back just as teachers arrived. We are going to suspend her, but not him as it appears she punched him first."
Father: "So my daughter is another victim of the Rittenhouse Effect"

Kyle Rittenhouse

1.) Anytime you blame the survivor of a very futile and hopeless situation. Like that one King of the Hill episode where Hank has to Flood Arlen's new mall area to save the dam.

2.) A term used by the progressive left to "Victim Blame" members of Conservative America.

Michelle: Oh god it was awful, I had to use my Glock to kill a convicted rapist who tried to have his way with me! Danielle: well regardless the circumstance since you killed someone you're a real Kyle Rittenhouse.

Rittenhouse Defense

A term used when someone claims self-defense after they provoked someone. Named after the infamous Kyle Rittenhouse case where the defendant argued for self-defense while it's argued on whether or not he provoked the shooting.

Person 1: "That man claimed self-defense in court after he shot her!"
Person 2: "He's pulling the Rittenhouse Defense."
