Yep,...ignoring the fact that we allow there to be a 'bad' part of town to begin with,..

if you are confronted and assaulted, you have the right to defend yourself.

Well, one of these nights when I'm bored I think I'll try that. I'll bring my AR15 along. Might be a hoot to blow away some punks for a thrill. I know I have the right to defend myself so there's nothing to be worried about.

I hope that someone has pointed out to you that nothing Biden said was as bad as the insults that Trump routinely spewed on anyone that challenged him.

Kyle certainly doesn't deserve the privilege of witness relocation, which as far as I know, is a favor to someone who has helped the government. However, if he got himself a make-over, which he could use anyway, and started using a slightly different name, like Cal Ritter, he'd manage fine.

What's he snitching on to get in the witness protection program? I don't think he's really on the in with any of the domestic terrorist groups that would warrant that. He's just basically a dumb kid.

I recall reading the conviction or plea was to a misdemeanor. I don't care enough to look through all the info in your link. Maybe the disposition is in 'supplemental reports.' Either way, Grosskreutz was guilty of some nasty misdemenors.

Someone please correct me if I’m wrong here, but per my concealed carry training I was told that you cannot purposely involve yourself into a violent situation where you may have to use your firearm, only to claim self defense if you end up using your firearm.

Did Rittenhouse shoot in self defense? Yes! My question is, what business did he have being there in the first place?

Exactly. All gun safety, self defense, ju-jitsu blah blah stresses conflict avoidance and de-escalation. It's the FIRST thing trainers will tell you - avoid any and all dangerous scenes, situations and conflict.

His business was part of a group defending the town from these arsonist rioters.

Why should these people have to back down and let these rioters take over the streets and burn their livelihood down? The weak Mayor won't let the cops stop them. So kudos to them for taking a stand and protecting their own.

Why should they lay down to the violent mob?
