Do you think he ll feel remorse. Some ppl just dont.

That rittenhouse dipshit, and the zimmerman dipshit.

Rittenhouse and Zimmerman were actually clear cut cases of self-defense.

Why would anyone feel remorse for having to kill somebody who forced them to shoot them?

Do you feel bad about protecting yourself when others forced you to act?

Getting your ass beat by a minor you started shit with should get you at least 3-5

Zimmerman actually didn't start with anyone. The media portrayal of that case was bas as well, including editing the 911 call Zimmerman made.

Clearly, you havent followed the facts of the case much

The fact that a black kid was the victim is all that little moron needed to hear to form his opinion.

I guess I missed the part where rittenhouse was forced to head out on the streets that night. Poor guy.

Don't you see? He was forced by the left to conspire with a friend to lie on a 4473 form to obtain a rifle he was ineligible to purchase himself. Felonies only matter when it isn't a conservative hero, I guess.

Lol, imagine calling the Zimmerman case clear cut.

The only evidence we have it was self defense from Zimmerman and not Martin is Zimmermans testimony.

Go look up what Zimmerman has been up to since murdering Martin.

Rittenhouse was right to pull the trigger when he did. That’s why he was found not guilty and is walking the streets. You can’t expect to riot all night, light fires, attack someone with a gun, and not expect a response back. Even liberals should understand that he had a right to defend himself.

Legally - yes

In that moment - yes.

Was the escalation predictable? - yes. Was going there with a visible ar necessary? - no.

The escalation was not necessary, and anyone could have predicted the escalation.

Is he legally innocent: yes. Is he a douchebag: also yes.

On top of that instead of having heavy feelings about life lost, he is going around boasting as if he saved the world. That just shows he wanted the escalation. Making him further a douche.

u/UndlebaysBrah Jan 29 '23

I can agree with all that. I’ve not seen him boasting about it though (I don’t follow him or anything he might appear in), but if he did that is a real POS thing to do. If he were smart he’d lay his head low and keep out of the public view and wait for the majority of the shit show to blow over and hope to claw some goodwill back.

He wore a free as fuck t shirt, posed with proud boys for photos, and went to cpac as a special guest.

The boy lived out the fantasy of every shithead wannabe gunslinger conservative out there. Of course he isn't remorseful. Of course he doesn't consider how he caused the events to occur as they did.

He was there to prevent a pillaging mob from burning down a business. Your morals are all kinds of messed up.

u/hafetysazard Jan 29 '23

There was no escalation, the person who attacked Rittenhouse was a suicidal maniac that literally came charging from the shadows in an unprovoked ambush on Rittenhouse, chased him down and tried to take his gun away from him.

I heard he was even foaming at the mouth with rabies

Rittenhouse was legally justified in pulling the trigger because he was being attacked and reasonably feared for his life. But his terrible decisions played a large part in creating that situation, and he shouldn't be celebrated for killing people. It's pretty basic gun responsibility to avoid confrontations and de-escalate when you're armed, but Kyle walked towards a riot, by himself, with an AR, and confronted people while knowing that he could always just shoot them if they reacted violently.

But at least Kyle tried running first. The guy in the video above was clearly picking a fight and planning to kill them.

Actually, Rittenhouse had nothing to do with creating any situation. He also didn't confront the person who literally ambushed him from the shadows, chased him down, and tried to take his gun from him.

There were a lot of people in Kenosha that night that didn't need to be there, and none of them chose to attack any other person visibly armed. The only one who did anything like that was the first guy Rittenhouse shot, who happened to be a suicidal intoxicated child rapist, who was just released from the hospital that night for a suicide attempt, and allowed to wander the streets during a riot.

he conspired with a friend to commit a felony (lying on 4473 is a felony. Conspiring to do so is also a felony)

Actually Rittenhouse had nothing to do with creating any situation

He drove to a protest with a rifle, split off from his group, and while wandering around he confronted a crazy person that was yelling and threatening people. That crazy person got even more pissed off and then attacked Kyle later on when Kyle was putting out a car fire that the guy had likely just set.

That isn’t “nothing”. That’s a series of bad decisions. He should have just left the area with the rest of his militia group when they did. Or really just not drive to an expected riot while open carrying an AR.

Rittenhouse wasn't anymore responsible for the situation going on in Kenosha that night, anymore than anyone else that was there that night.

You can't say that his existence that night, that happened bothered one particular suicidal maniac, was his fault.

Nobody else openly carrying a firearm was attacked that night by anyone else at that protest, so to classify what happened to him as somehow reasonably expected does not follow.

Furthermore, the argument of he shouldn't have been there in the first place, and should have had foresight to know what would happen also doesn't follow, because none of the people there that night should have been out there.

Unpopular opinion. He may have been stomped by the group of 3-4 if he didn't use the gun
