Here's an interview with the media guy who was with Kyle when he got separated from his group and witnessed the first shooting:

@Nonesuch

you have a video there from today Aug 28 with the same reporter Richie McGinniss on the 26th

At 4:57 in the above video hes says

"Kyle actually once he gets cornered
where that car on the wall
is he basically turns around and the man
goes for his gun
Kyle avoids him and then that's when the
shots were fired out
when that happened Kyle basically turned
around and aimed the gun at the man "

So here he does not go into those details about Rittenhouse,

Do you think in this video from two days earlier that it's plausible that he makes no mention of seeing the shooting? It seems a little peculiar

Post Full text of "charging documents" is available online, makes incident sound a lot like self-defense

I don't follow Daily Caller, and didn't know about that "interview", during which Richie McGinniss (Daily Caller chief video director) doesn't say much of anything.

The text of the charging documents is now pubic, and the prosecutor's theory of events corroborates what McGinniss says on The Hill:Rising clip.

That is not going to end well.
There is some talk now that his mother drove him there, as short drive and she was also at the protest with a
rifle, that after the shooting she drove him back home, a short drive home and then she returned to the protest. But it's not confirmed yet

Even if the teenager loses out on local courts, it will get appealed up to the higher courts. If they don't rule self-defense, it would set a huge precedence that would render almost all law abiding gun owners to be unlawfully protecting themselves. These cases currently are all symbolic by the democrat controlled cities to appease to the public instead of really being fair and by the book.

Any moron would know that if a group of people surrounding you and attacking you have the right to fire back.

Can't wait for the elections to be over so we can restore some sanity and pile losses on the democrats.

None of that changes the fact that a group of civilians with assault rifles with hundreds of protesters around is a dangerous situation and should be handled by police and National guard if necessary or professional security services if necessary.

This is a much broader issue than this one kid

The Problem is PEOPLE SHOULD NOT BRING GUNS TO PROTESTS unless the protest is about Gun Rights


The problems are:

1.) It's not a protest, it's a riot.
2.) People should not GO to a riot. Period. Especially after curfew, which is when all the real trouble happened in Kenosha.
3.) People SHOULD bring guns if they want to, if they do go to a riot. The only problem is if some no-mind attacks one of them. And that's a problem whether the guy being attacked has a gun or not. So, guns have nothing to do on whether there's a problem or not.

It wasn't a demonstration. It was a riot.
