The young man wasn't acting in self defense. You don't suit up with a gun and enter a hostile environment to engage in self defense.
And if they can find the person who shot him first ....by all means that person should be charged.
That's not the point.
A society that is embracing this young man as a hero -- is a sick one.
The kid is a hero, for trying to protect a neighborhood from being attacked by violent rioters.
Why is that so hard to understand?
Your arguments fall flat, it seems like you're trying to make excuses for the violent rioters who attacked Kyle first, and then chased after him and tried to attack him a 2nd time.
The only sick thing about our society are people like you who make excuses for the scumbags who want to destroy neighborhoods, loot businesses, and try to ruin America, all because they hate the police or Trump.

I can walk around East St Louis with a gold nugget attached to my forehead and armed with a Glock, does that mean i forfeit the right to protect my life?
A young woman walks into a frat party and butt ass naked, does that mean she deserves to get rape?

If you are walking around and get attacked out of no where that's self defense. if ESL is in the middle of riots, protesting, general civil unrest and you travel to place yourself in that situation aren't you just as much as fault? And hasn't the woman placed herself in a dangerous situation where the results may not be what she wanted. People do have personal responsibility for their actions...
Then watch the video. It's well done with plenty of factual analysis.
The only things you might object to are the presentation of the character appraisals and the political commentary at the end.
Feel free to disparage the video after you've watched it. Don't do it before, then expect to be taken seriously.
I'm not wasting my time watching video analysis from a source that is associated with Rittenhouse's legal defense. I already know what it's going to say. So do you. So does every reasonable person reading this.
I couldn't possibly care less if you "take me seriously" or not. If this YouTube show doesn't contain any new video footage, there's nothing for me to learn from it. Full stop.

Ummm...soooooo, what do you "suit up" in to enter a hostile environment? LMAO, if you're going into a wolf's den I guess hanging a piece of raw meat around your neck is a good plan?
Or to a BLM riot I suppose carrying a suitcase full of cash would be better than a rifle? That being said I dont see the kid as a hero. Hero is an overused word almost as much as racist is. Almost. Not quite.
Not every soldier who goes to war gets an MOH hung on them. The same rule applies here. Rittenhouse went to Kenosha armed. But , unlike the rioters who attacked him he wasnt actively seeking a fight.
I carry a firearm most places I go. I'm hardly looking to have to use it. Had I been in Kenosha that night I sure would have been armed. Rittenhouse showed hes got some sand that night. But a hero? Nah. Not a murderer either though. Not even.
But I am curious as to what you think someone should "suit up" with to enter a hostile environment. Bear in mind the "protesters" (read violent marauding criminals) that attacked the kid were armed.
What was THEIR intent? Pray tell? Peace Love and groovy I'm sure. Flower Power man. God save our country from the rabbit breed. Sheesh.
Aside from that, is he not in school? Nobody has mentioned what his educational status is, as that would be good to know for a 17 year old.
Why would he be in school at night time in the middle of summer?Plus, i thought school is all online now during pandemic.
LoL. and good luck with the civil lawsuit against Kyle.
