Have they ticketed the violent mob for breaking curfew?

Nonsense, we're seeing the reason it's absolutely essential to be armed whenever you are anywhere near the DNC terrorists roaming the streets. The kid would be in pretty bad shape right now....if he was still even alive, if not for having a rifle to protect himself from the terrorists.

I won't apologize for my position that I think it's wrong for a 17 year old kid to bring an AR 15 to a protest. I think it's wrong for any guns to be there and we are seeing why.
It's also wrong to riot and loot, set fire to dumpsters, attack people, etc. The focus needs to be on the violent mob not a kid defending himself

In the end if Little Johnny soldier boy police stayed home then he wouldn’t be in this mess. He drove a great distance, so it wasn’t his neighborhood, and he was violating curfew also. It was an opportunity to look like Joe tough guy and possibly shoot people they don’t like.
If angry bald guy, who had screamed at people to shoot him, had stayed home then none of this would have happened. The mob would have just peacefully continued to burn buildings and beat on people, and Kyle would have gone home without shooting anyone.

I totally agree with the last 2 posts. I'm surely not defending these punks who have taken over the streets at night. During the day the protests are in fact peaceful. There was a video, not sure if I can find it, where there was a group of people flagging down the police as a business was being destroyed. The officers walked right past the white people and arrested the black ones, and they were the business owners! THAT is why these protests are occurring and the peaceful protesters should never be confused with the rioters who come later. But for some reason you guys can't separate the 2 and that is frustrating.

Bottom line is NO guns should be brought to these streets and that goes for both groups.

Here is a highly stabilized few seconds of the first shooting, which was not the first shot.

You can see the person in the left foreground react to the first shot, from the tall man who fired a pistol in the air, offscreen to the left.

Kyle turns around after that first shot.

In the end if Little Johnny soldier boy fake policeman stayed home then he wouldn’t be in this mess and 2 people would not be dead. He drove a great distance, so it wasn’t his neighborhood, and he was violating curfew also. It was an opportunity to look like Joe tough guy and possibly shoot people they don’t like.
Kenosha is 15 miles or so from his house. He didn't drive a great distance, he went to the next town over. Having been to both Kenosha and Antioch, I can assure you that teenagers from Antioch go to Kenosha on a regular basis. That's where all of the shopping and entertainment is.

The truth is that if Mr. "Shoot me, N*****r" hadn't attacked a 17 year old nobody would have gotten shot and you never would have known that the kid had a rifle. As it stands, whether you agree with Rittenhouse carrying the rifle or not, he did nothing but defend himself from violent rioters.

Objectively speaking, yes, it was in fact the answer.

After the shooting, the rioting stopped in Kenosha.

Personally, I wish none of this every happened, but here we are, someone had to do something.

OK, now I see why you don't have the maturity to understand the truth.
You obviously need a few years to grow up, and maybe
learn some history. Like, why we have a militia.

What we have witnessed in the past 3 months is that the Militia is most certainly needed, anywhere the Demoncrats are in power:
"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."

Frankly the events of the past 3 months shows that the militia (every armed man from 16 to 60 is the militia) should have been brought forth to put down these lawless rioters from the beginning.
