Yes he was. Later, he gets separated from them while fleeing an angry mob.He wasn’t.He was with several adults, pervert.
But that is not actually relevant. Possessing an illegal weapon or even firing it does not mean you are guilty of murder - that is a different charge. The videos of the incident blatantly show a mob running him down and then trying to assault him. After slamming him in the back of the head he falls to the ground then turns and fires on those assaulting him.
He may be guilty of several crimes or he may not. The footage is not totally clear there. It really is no surprise crap like this happens when you pull the cops back, refuse to actually protect people from violent mobs and then make demands that people cannot protect themselves either. I am not sure what you expected - people to just lie down and let their property be smashed, burned and looted? To allow violent mobs to kill them?
You have to be a special kind of stupid to chase down and assault someone fleeing with a rifle.
He should not have been there, it was a moronic decision for him to go there even if he did so with good intent and he is going to pay for that. Guilty of murder though - not a chance.
I got as far as the producer of that video misidentifying the guy in a green shirt at the gas station as Kyle Rittenhouse.
Who give a damn what the 'producer' states. It is not remotely relevant. The actual events are there to see. I care not for the surrounding messaging - I skipped it anyway.
The actual events include Kyle Rittenhouse illegally in possession of a firearm that he used to shoot someone in the back and then shoot others trying to enforce a citizens arrest.
He show the guy straight in the chest and head. as he was being chased, he turned and fired at his pursuer. The other 2 who were shot were actively attacking him.
If you want to blame rittenhouse, you do that. But don’t lie. It doesn’t help your argument.
He shot Rosenbaum in the back. That's not self defense.
Wrong......the convicted felon was shot in the front and hit in the back as he spun from the first shot....
