  5.  @nrf91  valid point, and i tend to agree, Rittenhouse should not have been there. but given that Rittenhouse worked there, and had friends there, and there are some reports claiming he had family there, that creates a connection to the community in the same way that Trevon had a connection to the community he was walking through. in either case, it is wrong simply to attack someone for believing that person does not belong there, and it is disgustingly wrong to actually stalk someone because that shows intent to attack. what did Rittenhouse do to deserve being attacked? its all in the eye of the beholder, people say he was a threat because he had a gun, even though he never used his gun or even pointed it at anyone that was not directly attacking him. same question about Trevon, what did he do to deserve being stalked and attacked? he simply walked through a neighborhood where someone else perceived him as a threat. as for you trying to say that "If anything, Zimmerman, another cop wannabe with a gun who used it to kill innocent people, is the better analogy." shows that you think Rosenbaun was innocent, even though you admit in your first sentence that Rosenbaum was acting as the agressor. you cant have it both ways, either Rosenbaum was the aggressor or he was innocent, and if you think he was innocent then him stalking and attacking what he perceived as a threat was justified. and if stalking and attacking someone you perceive as a threat is justified then please go tell Trevons parents that Zimmerman was justified in stalking and attacking Trevon. the whole event boils down to this. Rosenbaum had several interactions with Rittenhouse that night before being shot, and at no point during those interactions did Rosenbaum try to attack Rittenhouse because he perceived him as a threat since Rittenhouse was open carrying the whole entire time. you cant argue that that someone who sees a man with a gun doesnt think of him as a threat and doesnt disarm him but then later decides that he is a threat when that "threat" has done nothing threatening the whole time. its like me sitting in a park and you walk by with a gun and i dont try to disarm you but later i try to disarm you even though you have done nothing to become a threat, i didnt perceive you as a threat the first or the second time i saw you with a gun, and you didnt use the gun in a threatening manner, so how can i argue that i seen you as a threat the 3rd time around?

  18.  @AlanDantes76  yea, he got it from his friend who lives in WI and bought it in WI, so anyone doing any news coverage should be doing due diligence and researching it. i heard people say that he did transport it across state lines and i heard people that said he did not transport it across state lines, so with 2 differing viewpoints and an absence of any charges to the transporting of firearms across state lines i decided to do my own research, and google came up with a link to an NPR article within 0.016 seconds, top of the search list. so i read the NPR article, which literally said that the IL state police declined to file any charges because in the course of their investigation they concluded that the weapon was bought, stored, and used exclusively in WI and has never been brought to IL, according to the IL state police statement. so at that point i figured ok, NPR quoted an actual police department that did an actual criminal investigation. another funny thing that made me question the whole transporting weapons across state lines was, why was Rittenhous's friend who lives in WI charged with gun charges related to this case. people dont do enough research, they listen to pundits who have an agenda, and they are twisted into wanting revenge and thinking it is justice. the same people who will claim that Zimmerman was wrong for stalking and attacking Trevon even though he perceived him as a threat are the same people that think it was perfectly OK for Rosenbaum to stalk and attack Rittenhouse because he viewed him as a threat. i believe that NO ONE is allowed to stalk and attack anyone else, stalking is a crime, at least here in Chicago, so is physically attacking someone, so is threatening to kill someone.

  25.  @varab6287  blah blah blah racism blah blah. funny how all this racism is running rampant in major cities where the same people that claim victimhood are the ones that keep electing the same politicians that they say are abusing them with rampant systemic racism. if you dont like the system, then work on changing the system, stop electing the same politicians that drive that racism instead of going out and attacking and destroying innocent people lives that just want to live their lives in peace. you ramble on about Fox news brainwashing people while CNN and MCNBC and the others have brainwashed you to believe that a man who authored the 1994 crime bill that disproportionately targeted young black men and put them in prison and a woman who used that law as a prosecutor to put young black men in prison for extended sentences were not racist and the real racist was a man who was in favor of gay marriage before most politicians ever thought of it and who was the first man in FL to open his club to minorities a decade before anyone else and who thought that illegal immigration should be stopped because it destroys middle and low income wages which affect minority groups more. take your racism and shove it, most people who cry and whine about it are the same ones voting for and supporting the politicians that push it. perfect example is here in Chicago, the democrats elected Rahm Emanuel simply becaue he was Obamas right hand man, and he turned around and in his first term in office he shut down half the schools on the southside which is mostly minorities. then to top it off, these ame people re-elected him. fuck them, if they cry about racism its because they brought it upon themselves and they get only laughter from me.

  40.  @patrickbranchini378  and what crime was Rittenhouse commiting? did anyone call the cops on Rittenhoue to report his criminal activity? no, no one did, becaue at the time no one had any credible or reasonable information that would point to Rittenhouse committing a crime. you cant simply claim someone is committing a crime and then use information gained after the fact to justify your actions, you dont want cops doing that do you? if a cop stops and frisks a bad guy you claim its a violation of that guys rigths even if the cop finds a gun and drugs on him, because he had no reason to assume the guy was committing a crime, but yet you flip the script around and all of a sudden its ok to stalk and attack a guy without any reason and then later get information to prove your intent. as for ill intent, please tell us what intent did the guy who fired off shots into the air as Rosenbaum was chasing Rittenhouse? what was that guys intent on carrying a firearm at a protest? and on top of it discharging it negligently in the air too? woops, there goes another kid hit by a stray bullet because a peaceful protestor shot his gat in the air. and Grooskreutz, what was his intent for carrying a firearm at the protest, as he testified, he was carrying his firearm illegally, its cut and dry, he knew he didnt have a permit to carry his weapon concealed, yet he did it anyway. i guess those guys had ill will, but you wont look at them. you have no moral high ground to stand on. as for you carrying at a Trump rally, if the secret service doesnt stop you, then so be it. but just for the record, lets say you could bring a riffle to a Trump rally, and someone decided to stalk you and then attack you for no reason other then they perceived you as a threat and you had to shoot them, then i guess i would be on the witness stand doing the same thing that every single witness for the prosecution did, and that is to admit that you acted in SELF DEFENSE. i have always been forgiving of a persons right to defend themselves, no matter the affiliation or political bias or skin color, but with you i guess none of that matters, because a white kid being stalked by a PEDO and then attacked by that same PEDO is perfectly justifiable, and the real tragedy is that you cant even explain why its justifiable.

  46.  @joeyager8479  of course the situations were different, but the basics of the situations were the same. Trevon, a black kid walking along not attacking anyone is stalked by another person and then attacked by the person that stalked him because he viewed that kid as a threat. Rittenhouse, a white kid walking along and not attacking anyone is stalked by another person and then attacked by the person that stalked him because he viewed him as a threat. same type of situation, the only differences are that Travon is black and did not have a weeapon while Rittenhouse is white and had a weapon. and having a weapon is not a cause to attack someone since plenty of people have weapons and WI is an open carry state. im pointing out the hypocrisy and double standard on these threads where people will claim that Travon should not have been attacked and Rittenhouse was justifiably attacked and giving no other reason that Rittenhouse had a weapon. i dont believe that anyone is allowed to attack anyone else unless that person becomes a direct threat, just carying a gun in a non threatening manner is not a threat, and in some states where it is legal to open carry a weapon, attacking someone for openly carrying a weapon could get you shot and then on top of it sued for violating civil rights. these are the same types of people that would say that if Ritttenhouse was black and carrying a weapon the cops would gun him down, implying that it would be wrong, but at the same time deffending attacking Rittenouse because he is not black.
