How did you come to the conclusion that you cannot shoot an animal in the back in self-defense. Please explain your logic.No it won't. They have video evidence that proves itBy shooting someone in the back?Fi
But your signature says "Come take 'em" (your guns, of course, no?). And the dead man seems to have been trying take the child's gun, per the filing statement. Should the child not kill him, if he feels the only alternative is to lose the weapon and hope he does not get killed? If so, then he is perfectly justified in emptying the entire 30-round magazine, right?By the time he was done pulling the trigger on his AR-15, Rosenbaum, who ended up face down on the ground, had been shot in the back.
Shooting someone in the back isn't generally thought of as a tactic used by someone who's defending himself...
Mr. Rosenbaum was a child molester. Getting shot in the back was too good for him, IMHO.
But it wasn't self defense, and that's going to be profoundly problematic for Rittenhouse's attorney's...
Have you even seen any of the multiple videos out there?
Kinda telling that everyone here who posts a video of the incident argues that Kyle acted in self-defense while everyone who argues to the contrary merely mindlessly repeats internet and fakestream news rumors.
Watch the first 4 minutes of this video
If a person is shot in the back, he could not be considered a threat. Hey, maybe he was running at Rittenhouse. But if the kid felt truly threatened, the gunshot would've entered the guy from the front, not the back. The fact that it entered into his back demonstrates that he wasn't even facing Rittenhouse at the time.
He could not have been a threat. and you don't get to shoot someone if you think they'll be a threat in the future or they were a threat in the past. A gunshot to the back is always damning evidence against a shooter...
That's an ignorant statement.
That's akin to saying you cannot possibly shoot a wolf in the back in self-defense when it is chewing on your foot.
We live in a 3 dimensional universe. Quit playing stupid.
Are you trained in the use of deadly force?
I am. Well trained, in fact.
Your comparison is the absolute apex of ignorance and stupidity.
How is someone whose back is turned to you a threat? Lemme' help you out: He's not. He can't be...
McGinnis said that Joseph Rosenbaum (who is on video behaving extremely agitated, had literally got out of a mental institution earlier that day, and had a shirt wrapped around his head to conceal his identity) chased Kyle and lunged at Kyle's rifle in an apparent attempt to steal it. And the video evidence is consistent with his eyewitness report.
Kyle shot him and ended the deranged child molester's violent crime spree. He's a hero, whether he realizes it or not.
