Regardless of what you and other lefties think about American law it's pretty clear in allowing for people like him to take out guns to defend both themselves and others from violence. He was legally standing around that car dealership to protect it from rioters. When he headed for another dealer a number of people confronted him. He, according to video, dodged away from them and ran off, and they pursued him.
So why didn't he keep running?
Now I'm not a lawyer but it seems to me it's hard to justify chasing after a guy who hasn't done anything illegal while screaming threats and epithets. And it's particularly **** dumb to do it to someone clutching a high-powered firearm. Everyone who was shot was attacking Rittenhouse, who was trying to flee.
None of this is relevant to my point. It's amazing that the neo-Nazis and other right-wing goons celebrating this verdict understand its implications and you continue to play dumb.
Bullshit. If OJ Simpson taught us anything it's that money talks, not race in US courtrooms. Rittenhouse had a good lawyer.
And an indifferent prosecution and a hilariously biased judge.
