re: Rittenhouse attorneys announced.

Based on the latest article which quotes court documents, (the guy with the black shirt that helped the dude shot in the head) Daily Caller reporter Richie McGinnis stated that JoJo Rosenbaum "engaged" the 17 year old. The 17 year "juked" and ran from him. Rosenbaum chased him.
Looks like if Rosenbaum would have left this kid alone none of this would have happened.
Also, Rosenbaum could be seen in an earlier video, highly agitated and very confrontational.

You are the winner of the most flawed logic I have witnessed on TD in a long time. Just absolutely down right stupid. May God have mercy on your pour soul. Lol

Ask yourself this. If he had not taken the AR out, would any confrontation have occurred? Of course not. Also consider that he had the look and presentation of a mass shooter. If you are in mass and Rittenhouse walked in looking exactly as he did that night, what would you reasonably assume? Probably that he is there to kill people. You may try to subdue or disarm him to save others.
He had an AR-15 and these dumbasses still chased him down. I get what you’re trying to say but if they had not chased him down and assaulted him no one would be dead.

How exactly was he being a vigilante? Be specific, because that term has a very specific meaning.
He defended himself
To Soys that is agressive

I lean left on most issues but how in the hell could you expect him not to defend himself with his life in clear and obvious danger?
I have no problem with him saving his own life, but I don't know how this plays out.
EDIT: Not talking to you, Mr. Larson, I just replied to the last comment instead of the one I was reading ealrier.

Watch the interview videos. The kid was an EMT. He was there to provide medical care to the protesters. He actually says it. He said the AR was for his protection only.
He also said, “people are getting injured, and our job is to protect this business". I haven't heard of anyone that asked him to protect their property or if he was being paid to be there. Or was he just there and claiming that to explain his presence. I'm not sure it even matters. I just thought it was odd the way he claimed it was his job to protect that business.
I've watched all the videos and checked out the timeline of events. In my opinion, Rittenhouse will probably walk. A decent attorney will be able to claim he acted in self-defense because he feared for his life.
quote:
In most cases the cops won't even try to subdue a active shooter. So you are saying that the rioters/protesters believed in justice so much they would risk life and limb to disarm the shooter? Not likely, they were going to kill that kid.
To me, it is pretty obvious he is being chased bc those people, whether correctly or not, seemed to believe he was a murderer fleeing the scene of the first shooting. They were trying to stop him.
A slight turn of events could have made this end differently. Rittenhouse was very close to meeting his maker if that handgun had been used by the guy that was shot in the arm. Either way, this is a fricked up situation where multiple people are now dead. Families lost loved ones and I don't wish that on them or anyone else despite anyone's political beliefs.

Where do you see that he had a criminal record?
I did see arrest reports on twitter last night but there was also someone in the comments saying it was a different person with the same name. Maybe that is what people keep referencing.

Folks cannot logically and simultaneously support defunding the police AND denying someone the right to defend themselves. To do so is simply espousing anarchy (Which from watching to protests develop is exactly what the protesters want.)

That sir is the definition of profiling. The main thing everyone is against...

That's about the only conclusion you can come to!

Normally this would be true if he just showed up at a protest to make a political statement and be part of the trouble, but my understanding is that the group he was there with was protecting a particular business belonging to someone they knew - similar to the Dorn situation at the pawn shop. If the local govt and police were doing their job and throwing all of the rioters in jail instead of letting them burn down peoples businesses then Kyle and his group wouldn’t have been there

Kyle Rittenhouse is not authorized to arrest, detain or prosecute anyone. If his intent that night was to be a private vigilante, his action was also lawless.
Has anyone seen video of Rittenhosue attempting to arrest, detain or prosecute anyone? I haven't.

I saw three vigilante on the videos. They attempted to avenge the alleged murder of Rosenbaum
They are
1. Kick to the head guy
2. skateboard guy
3. glock guy

Bahahaha he created the danger? Bahahaha.... it’s never the criminals destroying shits fault... god bless you’re an idiot.

I'm seeing a lot of "he crossed state lines w/ a firearm=guilty" argument from liberals. First, that law is a violation of every American's 2nd Amendment rights. Second, you should be able to defend yourself if some lunatic comes at you with a skateboard and a handgun. These people are so incredibly dense.

That's because they're idiots with about as much grasp of the law as a potato.
(apologies for insulting potatoes like that)
And according to Lin Wood, he didn't cross state lines with a firearm anyway. He got it there in Kenosha from a friend, and gave it back before going home.

Serious question: why go out to a hot bed armed with an AR? Why not a simple side arm so you can more easily attend to the wounded?

Because he couldn't legally carry a side arm whereas he could a rifle?
