    You wouldn’t know a “Nazi” if one fell from the sky and landed on your face.

    You mean the grainy video that you can barely see anything and the person the prosecution says he pointed at isn’t even visible and the prosecution claimed right handed Kyle is using the rifle left handed? The video even the judge couldn’t make out what was happening? That video? LOL

    The judge even altered his terms of his bail when they caught Rittenhouse boozing with his fellow far right wing violent gangmembers, flashing WP signs.

    It's absolutely clearly to see on that vid that Rosenbaum never lunged at Rittenhous's weapon. So sorry.
    While the autoposy is rather clear that the headshot and the shot in the back was when Rosenbaum was already falling down.
    So that's just exceptionally sick to claim the deadly shots were made in self defense.

    The same lies are told when you lot ignore that Rittenhouse pointed his rifle at Grosskreutz, and so simply is the one who assaulted somebody else and forfeited on his right on self defense right then and there.

    Grosskreuz didn't conceal his weapon, while as far as I know he did treat plenty of people that night. While Rittenhouse isn't trained in a thing and got no property there to protect, yet he still went with his loaded rifle to fanatically scare people with it. He literally was looking for a fight, with that gang he was in. He got caught on tape that he would be killing people who loot. And afterwards he went boozing with his far right wing violent gang members showing up WP signs. he's a cold blooded murderer that shows zero remorse about a thing.

    If the person with the Glock joined a mob of grown men with pipes, clubs, rocks, etc., in the chase of a 17 year old kid for 2 blocks, until he runs right up on the kid as he is being assaulted on the ground, THAT PERSON CAN EXPECT that the kid would point his gun at him, and has no right to self defense.

    Chasing isn't compatible with self defense.

    We don't do mob justice in America.

    Kyle, and many others who were carrying fire extinguishers, were there to put out fires. The problem was that unless you had a gun strapped around you, the mob wouldn't allow you to put out a fire. The videos are clear: if you put out a fire that night, while unarmed, you risked serious injury or death from the mob. Whose fault is it that citizens found themselves in that situation? Not Kyle's.

    Grosskreuz didn't chase Rittenhouse. He even asked him some questions to witch Rittenhouse replied. And your using that "17 year old"-meme as a silly excuse. That child went out of his way and brought a loaded rifle to scare people away with it. That was his plan from the start. We even got him on tape saying that he would execute looters. And scaring people with your loaded rifle isn't compatible with self defense.

    He's not a trained firefighter. So he had no idea what the hell he was doing with it.
    The motive of Rittenhouse to be there is very clear. It wasn't to play firefighter at all. His plan was to scare people with his loaded rifle.
    That by default is basically him tossing out his own right to self defense.

    We got Rittenhouse saying that Rosenbaum lunged at him. That is the basis of self defense claim. You lot have been parroting that quiet extensively. And the drone video is clear that it did not happen. He heard gun shots, he got scared, he turned around and just shot Rosenbaum, and made it up why. While the autopsy showed that he killed Rosenbaum when he was falling down in the head and also in his back. Them 2 shots were the deadly shots and absolutely not needed at all by any means. That set everything in motion of him being that life shooter, which is why he brought the rifle. He didn't bring a fire extinguisher. He's no firefighter, also not a trained medic. It really remains just him going there with a loaded rifle to scare people.

    I think he'll get off simply because of the self defense laws but I do believe his online history and interactions go to motive and are relevant. The judge obviously thought it would be prejudicial to any verdict so he kept it out.

    Oh, you mean the injury to his hand that only had gun powder burns on half of it? You mean the testimony by the prosecution witness that Rosenbaum lunged for Kyle? So far you have nothing other than the prosecution witnesses making the case for self defense.

    You do realize he was shot 4 times in less than a second, right? So all 4 shots in less than a second... I'll bet Kyle's heart rate was close to 200 bpm, I'll bet adrenaline was running through his veins like liquid fire, I'll bet he didn't think about anything except neutralize the threat to his body. It's funny that the prosecution thinks that Kyle should have been able to discern that the first shot neutralized the threat. It is quite likely Kyle had already pulled the trigger 3 more times before his brain even registered he pulled it once.

    Personally, I think the general population watches too much tv, and they think they can just incapacitate they bad man coming for them without killing him...

    Let this case be a valuable lesson to all! 'dead men tell no tales' and 'he who hesitates is lost'.

    Then why didn't he go help Rosenbaum?

    The gun was concealed before he pulled it out. He's on video lifting up his shirt and pulling out his Glock that was concealed in the back of his pants.

    His concealed carry license had been revoked due to his previous crimes. He was breaking the law.

    You enter this like "excuse me that I can't controle my nerves and kill people"... but that's actually a crime. People's lives matter. Maybe you heard about that.

    oh yeah, I know it's inadmissible but I am sure it would provide some insight into the foolish child's mind ...

    a guy with a firearms conviction and not holding a valid permit, brought a concealed weapon to a riot with the intent of rioting. Why do the lefties ignore that. Rittenhouse was wise to be armed.

    The only people killed that night were those who were shot by Rittenhouse.

    By the judge who is the decider of law..... yes. That's how that works.

    I watched Grosskreuz's testimony personally in my off time along with the rest of the trial. Have you watched the whole trial?
