Society/Culture Kyle Rittenhouse

[scoman]

You're playing out a fever dream.

Ok them step us through how he gets out of that situation then.

 

[RedVest4]

Rittenhouse was mobbed by dozens?

Again. Watch the videos rather than getting your info third hand from cnn

 

[Eagle Wrath]

You mean the guy armed with a plastic bag? Was Rittenhouse walking around with a loaded ar 15?

As CNN like to quote - The lone survivor had a loaded gun pointed at Rittenhouse. Another had him on the ground and was attacking him with a skateboard. The guy was close to being a red smear on the ground.
Of couse he couldve stayed home and watched the riots on tv but that isnt what the trial is about. He didnt go around shooting innocent protesters.

He shouldn't have been there.

He's very lucky the 3rd guy didn't kill him. It wuld have been justifiable based on sense of threat and self-defense.

He has a loaded rifle. Wandering around. If we're using sense of threat as justification, he should have been sorted out.

 

[Eagle Wrath]

If a mob is destoying my neiborhood and attack someone defending it and police are too scared to get involved, its a no brainer who you should support. But some here cant see past their political and racial beliefs.

He was part of a mob. An armed mob. He retreated back to them, once he gathered his bearings. He was a dumb campaigner, playing out his authoritarian and racial fantasies, got in a situation he had neither the intelligence or skills to get out without killing 2 people.

 

[Scallop Industry Thug]

There was zero risk of him attacking with the rifle.

He used his rifle to kill 2 people.

 

[Scallop Industry Thug]

Shouldve been 3. The one with a gun pointed at him only got a wound to his arm.

Rittenhouse has his coming.

 

[Eagle Wrath]

Rittenhouse has his coming.

He will be fully acquitted I'm sure. The prosecution have nothing and are failing miserably. Thankfully there is video

 

[Scallop Industry Thug]

I would be on your side if he was on a balcony taking these rioters out.

Oh, I have no doubt you would. Absolutely. For sure.

Not necessarily a threat in America

 

[Scallop Industry Thug]

Not necessarily a threat in America

The 3rd guy was entirely justified in removing this stain from the world.

 

[scoman]

The 3rd guy was entirely justified in removing this stain from the world.

You have said this a number of times. What is your reasoning?

 

[Scallop Industry Thug]

You have said this a number of times. What is your reasoning?

He'd killed 2 people to this point.

 

[sherb]

You have said this a number of times. What is your reasoning?

Self-defence seems to be a popular reason given in this discussion, will that do?

 

[Clubs are trumps]

Rittenhouse has his coming.

Why are you filled with so much hatred?

 

[Lethality]

The 3rd guy was entirely justified in removing this stain from the world.

You seem to be more bloodthirsty than is healthy.

 

[Scallop Industry Thug]

You seem to be more bloodthirsty than is healthy.

No.

He murdered 2 people.

 

[Clubs are trumps]

 

[Lethality]

No.

He murdered 2 people.

You seem to be wanting a third casualty.

 

[Eagle Wrath]

No.

He murdered 2 people.

Ignoring the fact that he was there. What should he have done when the mob had him on the ground? Accepted the beating?

 

[Scallop Industry Thug]

He provoked the beating. He was brandishing an AR 15.

 

[Lethality]

He provoked the beating. He was brandishing an AR 15.

I'd be less inclined to attack someone carrying an assault rifle.

 

[Alberto_Magnifico]

How dumb do you need to be to attack someone that is clearly armed, without provocation, and in an open carry precinct?

No doubt Kyle shouldn't have been there, but still what the hell is going through the mind of his attackers? He was legally entitled to defend himself with lethal force, the prosecution is struggling big time.

Here's a tip kidos, if you ever find yourself in an open carry part of the USA don't threaten someone with violence and try to disarm them.
