Kenosha Shooter Kyle Rittenhouse

Fair enough. Maybe he shouldn't have been carrying a gun going into a riot.

And maybe he shouldn't have been trying to intimidate people with it 

 At the same time, I can understand the frustration of so many that the police are being told to stand down and let the rioters burn down cities and businesses, that young guys like this get to thinking that they have to do the police's job for them because the police are not allowed to do their job for political reasons or whatever.

Lol no

I doubt the young man thought that the rioters would be suicidal and dumb enough to try to disarm him, though.

Smart no . Understandable wanting get a gun away from a potential lunatic yes 

 It takes a special kind of stupid to try to disarm someone like that. 

Smart no . Understandable wanting get a gun away from a potential lunatic yes 

And even if he did think there was a good chance something like this could happen, that still shouldn't matter when it comes to the law I don't think. 

Yes it very much does 

He either rightfully defended himself, or he broke the law and had no right to fire those shots. 

He didn't 

He appeared to be acting lawfully, at least in the video that I saw.

Nope he was a loon who was just there to stir up trouble and when it got to intense he pussied out and killed some people like a punk . His ass belongs in jail .

You said a couple of pages ago that it wasn't smart for the first person to try to grab his gun, but that it wasn't wrong either. It most certainly was wrong, because if they hadn't done it, they'd likely still be alive, as would the second person that he shot. If they thought based on his demenor that he might shoot someone, then you get the heck out of dodge. You don't grab at a firearm. That's suicide. If he pointed the gun at the person for no reason, and in the heat of the moment they tried to take it, I'd be on that guys side. If the others weren't chasing him and trying to knock him out, I'd be on their side as well, but that doesn't appear to be what happened. You don't get to grab someone's gun just because you see them as intimidating.
