The Kyle Rittenhouse Trial: What Will Be the Outcome?

This video changed my attitude towards Kyle Rittenhouse.

While I don't believe people should be allowed to walk around with AR-15 style rifles, it's perfectly legal thanks to our gun culture. I also don't believe people should destroy businesses and property because of a perceived wrong, but that's part of the social justice warriors culture and hip hop culture. There is also the white supremacist culture, of which Rittenhouse is a part, but there's nothing illegal about that, either.

America has a culture problem.

That is "a" comeback, but not a very good one, nor an accurate one...'nuf said.

Looks like we have a run on weak argumentative replies designed to dodge the issues raised. OK, maybe you feel slighted because I didn't address your question: "Why exactly do the "victims" deserve sympathy?" My answer: for those with the Holier than thou attitude like yourself, I guess the question is moot, being murdered doesn't warrant sympathy from other humans if you as a person don't "deserve it".

I just looked that one up. Rittenhouse's mom didn't drive him to the protest and he never had the gun at her home. He was staying with the older friend who bought the gun for him and where he kept it. After the killing/maiming, Kyle went to his mother's home and she drove him to the police station.

I got to quit believing everything I read in the Youtube comments.

Very insightful. Every one of them was in the wrong. All just questionable people. I would hate to be a member of that jury.

He never stated that he [worked] for them.

Two days later, Rittenhouse went to downtown Kenosha and volunteered to clean graffiti off a high school. He met the owners of a car dealership where vehicles had been burned, offered his “condolences,” and said he wanted to help. He said the owners asked his friend to protect their business, and that he joined his friend and others that night. He took his semi-automatic rifle and first-aid supplies. He gave his bulletproof vest — which he said was issued by the Grayslake Police Department — to a friend. He said he felt he wouldn’t need it “because I’m going to be helping people.”

I didn't say that Rittenhouse said he worked for them. Squatting Dog, in his post, said that Rittenhouse was intending to protect the business of "his employers."

So he didn't need a bulletproof vest because he was going to be helping people but he DID need an assault rifle? I've never heard of real medics or EMTs carrying assault rifles.

..but he didn't miss, because he didn't fire. If your car is pointed in the direction of another car but not actually moving, does it give the car in the opposite direction the right to crash into you.. ?.. same scenario... :unsure:

If you watched the testimony of Mr. Grosskreutz, you would know that he admitted pointing his gun at Kyle.

It sounds like you support Rittenhouse's actions,is that correct? No sympathy whatsoever for the victims of Rittenhouse, who were trying to stop the [attempted] murder spree of an active shooter?

It sounds like you are reading things into my post that aren't there.
I do not support all of Rittenhouse's actions. Being at such a chaotic scene is stupid.
I support Rittenhouse's right to self defense.
Look up "Active Shooter." You obviously don't know what the term means.

I am not confused at all, I am trying to verify your moral stance and perspective. Here[in bold,above] your are giving the Rittenhouse scumbag the same status as a police officer? Simply amazing.

"Status" is irrelevant in the eyes of the law. Anyone has the right to self defense.
 
Rittenhouse claims that he would have been killed if he wasn't armed with his AR-15 style rifle. (One must put "style" in the description or the pedantic gun enthusiasts will have a field day.) But he was attacked because he was carrying the rifle. He wouldn't have been a target had he been out there to simply help. He was perceived to be a threat and people don't like to be threatened, especially those with a death wish like Rosenbaum.
 
Yeah, it is like he put himself out there in the middle of
a bunch of unpredictable people, he was armed, most
probably were not, he has no kind of training in crowd
control, medical or anything...just a wannabee....this calls
for a jail sentence in my opinion.
