I'm starting to think that what some of these posters are saying is they think Rittenhouse should have put his gun down, so that they could watch him being beaten up or killed.

They know what the outcome would have been. They're just mad they couldn't observe it.

No, I call riots riots, vandalism vandalism, violence violence and murder murder.

No idea why you choose to misrepresent other people. You are like MPowering1 who can't stop making fake claims about other posters.

In this case the kid did something very stupid by playing rambo, and now he is in the mercy of the legal system. He will get whatever is coming to him, and I think it will land him in prison where he will spend a long time and it won't be easy for a kid like that.

Or this kind of thing turns them on. Something is way off with people who pretend they don't know what the outcome would have been.

Rittenhouse opted not to attend a court hearing and will remain in Lake County jail on homicide charges until at least late September as he assembles his legal team, which includes high-profile national lawyers.

Rittenhouse attorney says he did not transport gun across state lines
Ownership of the firearm and transporting it across state lines is the least of this kid’s problems.

Open carry under 18 is not legal in Wisconsin. This too is among the least of his problems.

It does not appear he was hired or asked to defend other people’s property.

There are more stories from eye witnesses than there were protesters.

I choose to suspend an opinion until more factual information is known.

Who said he was BLM or anarchist, and not just the town drunk and/or loud-mouth?

Often times they go for 1st degree murder and then haggle it down to manslaughter or 3rd degree.
Have you seen the videos? They were chasing him with 1) pistols 2) bricks 3) skateboards 4) misc other weapons... He was fleeing his own murder...

Analogy is not the study of the anus.
Yes, that is a practical response to a mob.

There is a lot of stupid on both sides of what happened in Kenosha and the shooter is no an exception. You've said some incredibly dumb things on this forum before, but the idea that he could have "safely surrendered" is up there with the dumbest.

He put himself in a dangerous situation while armed, a guy who showed a high level of hostility towards him previously, then threw a flaming bag of something at him while chasing him, and then continued to pursue him, and was shot for doing that. He then fled the scene and was attacked by 3 more people and he shot 3 of them.

If the initial act was self defense, which it obviously was to anyone who isn't a completely dishonest turd, then they had no right to attempt to detain him...and they weren't attempting to "detain" him, they were attempting to beat him.

People have to stop being so stupid and dishonest because of this team sports mentality.

I'm as repulsed by Trump as the next guy, but people can't just keep lying about things because they feel it is your religious duty to battle the great satan Trump and anyone who supports him by any means necessary.

The defenders of the terrorists mobs are either dishonest or blind. The videos show everything in detail.

Disagree. Weapons charge is likely going to be the only thing he’ll be charged with. That caliber lawyer that is representing him doesn’t take on these cases if the client is going to be found guilty of three count of homicide.
