    Truth is he was found innocent.
    Truth is also that a bunch of people are going to vote for someone found, by a court of law, to be a rapist who often commits fraud.

    An active shooter is typically used to describe someone who is shooting people indiscriminately. Rittenhouse was not an active shooter in the traditional sense. He wasn't even the first person to discharge his firearm. Every person he shot was in self-defense. He acted in self-defense. Just because you see someone with a firearm defending himself does not mean you can attack him.

    at least there was not enough evidence for the jury to convict, but that does not mean his victims were guilty either

    It's hard to say. So many on the left thing pedophiles aren't criminals, and rape should be something that someone in authority can inflict on folks in the "other" classes, you know, like conservatives and the other "deplorables".....

    He was found not guilty, so its a settled case, but there was confusion because he shot one guy, and then took off running, and the other two thought he was an active shooter and went after him. The rest is history. They caught up with him, and he shot them too thinking his life was in danger. The jury agreed. Were the other two guys trying to perform "citizens arrest"? Its probably what they had in mind, but it didn't work out too well for them.

    So moral of the story is dont point a gun at a threat? Whats all that noise about arming more people to prevent active shooters?

    Sounds like a recipe for an active shooter to beat the case if you ask me. Kyle had a weapon brandished during a protest and fit the description of a threat, another armed citizen engaged, and lost, so the active shooter gets to walk.

    Just a small clarification: you don't have to be afraid for your life to use lethal force, you just have to fear serious bodily harm. Wisconsin also has strong self-defense laws.

    The story from his perspective: the mob was setting fires. Someone in his group gave him a fire extinguisher and told him to put out. He asked someone to come with him. They told him someone was already there. But they were wrong. So he put out the fire by himself. This enraged the crowd, including the pedophile who just got out of the mental institution. He chased Rittenhouse and another member of the mob fired his gun off behind Rittenhouse. When the pedophile got within an arm's reach, Rittenhouse shot him not knowing who was shooting or why the literal maniac was so aggressively trying to harm him.

    The angry mob that was already yelling at him, chasing him, and firing guns, was even more enraged, so he ran away from them with his firearm pointed down, trying to get to the end of the block where the police were positioned (they left several blocks unprotected). Eventually, the mob caught up with him and knocked him down. That's when the man was shot while hitting him over the head with a board. And the final person was shot while angling to position his gun at his head when Rittenhouse was already on the ground.

    All of the people who were shot escalated the situation with a minor who never threatened them.

    You don't blame them because they carried the narrative you support.

    The case is closed and it's clear Kyle isn't guilty that anybody with eyes and not brainwashed by the media. But the conversation continues.

    I don't think the pedophile was trying to arrest him I think he was trying to die. Even he had enough sense to know that he didn't belong in this world.

    The piece of **** woman beater wanted to beat someone weaker than him that's their kind of thing.

    I just hope that this all happened before these scum were able to breed.

    He used a weapon to fight off liberal loosers who were the aggressors and criminals.

    I can see why the left wouldn't like his actions.

    The point is absurd because they say Kyle has no business being there but did three idiots he shot had even less business being there.

    These people are criminal they will think that the criminals had more right to be there than Kyle.

    They weren't liberal they were fascist. They were there and destroying people's property because the police shot and paralyzed that guy who had kidnapped children.

    They were pro criminal they want criminals to be allowed to kidnap children. One of the abusers that he shot was the kind of person that liked to hurt children

    Evidently that defense didn't work out too well for them.

    If you have to chase someone down the street to point your gun at them they are probably not a threat to you.

    But I bet the dumbass doesn't do that when again.... At least not with the same arm. Lol

    The world must be a very scary place for you. It wouldn't be if you just acquire some sense.

    Grosskirts wasn't trying to prevent an active shooter he was trying to murder a person
    he didn't brandish it he only pointed it at someone when it was necessary for him to.

    If you could be a better prosecutor than the person prosecuting him why the hell aren't you a lawyer?

    Sure, but he said he feared for his life, and the jury believed it. It was enough for the "not guilty"

    Yes, I am familiar with the details. The jury decided on the not-guilty verdict and people will just have to accept it. He admits that if he could go back in time, he'd stay home, and I hope other kids his age learn from that. Owning a gun doesn't make either party a cop/.

    As for others who think its a good idea to chase a guy with a gun and perform "citizens arrest", - consider the risk. You can get shot, and the other guy might get off the hook using the self defense clause.

    that's like that idea wasn't reflective of reality, I'm really just a desperate move to try and say someone is guilty without them actually being guilty.
    I'm wondering why it's not in jail for having the firearm. Wasn't he a felon?
