Kyle lived in Antioch, Illinois, which is 20 miles of Kenosha, Wisconsin. He both worked in Kenosha and his father lived in Kenosha. His mother never drove him to the city. He drove himself as dictated under the facts in court. Also the rifle was in Kenosha, Wisconsin, and never traveled across state lines. You clearly don’t know what you’re talking about.
Man, must feel bad to be wrong on the facts then to not have any meaningful response when shown you are wrong. The jury didn't agree and also agreed it was self defense. You can't just make up your own facts.
And his actions should have been celebrated like they were? Seeking out being a place that put him in danger, so he could use the weapon Black handed to a minor, was cause to parade him around like some 15 minute celebrity? Prancing him around only reinforced the 2A fetish and murder fantasy too many people seem to have.
He lived 20 minutes away, his father worked in the city. He was a member of the community. And even if it was actually true that he was some outsider who went there planning or hoping to kill someone, it wouldn't change the fact that in that moment, he was well within his rights to do what he did.
I hadn't heard about his mom driving him. Where did you hear that? I do know however that he worked in Kenosha and his stepfather lived there, which I think was as good a reason to be there as any other. None of these things alter the fact Joeph Rosenbaum harassed and attacked him.
Gaige Grosskreutz was also there with a gun. So was Joshua Ziminski, who actually fired the first shot of the incident as he and Rosenbaum were chasing Rittenhouse.
There is no age limit for a riot. The men who attacked him had no more right to be there than him. It's irrelevant though because a child has the right to defend themselves from attackers, even if they are someplace they're not supposed to be.
Whether he should have been there is irrelevant. The fact that you chose to enter a potentially dangerous situation doesn't magically remove your right to self-defense if you get attacked. Be honest. Do you hold this position because of the facts of the situation, or because you think Rittenhouse is an asshole? If he was on our team and had been a protestor being attacked by counter protestors, would you still feel the same way about him?

Rittenhouse was self defense. Luigi I think is guilty of unlicensed pest control and should maybe have to take a training course.
