    If you remove the politics, it’s just some idiot who knowingly went into a dangerous situation

    Yes. I’m not calling him a murderer because Republicans have rallied around him, or because of what the protest was about.

    Remove the politics and I’m still calling him a murderer because he knowingly put himself in a dangerous situation with the intent of shooting people in order to protect property that wasn’t even his, because it is appropriate to take lives to protect property. It is not appropriate to damage property to protect lives.

      Yes but Rittenhouse couldn’t have shot someone unless he felt in fear for his life. This isn’t like a cop putting 20 bullets in someone cause he thought his comb was a gun. He literally had a gun pointed at him. If this didn’t happen he would be a murderer. It did happen and the idiot who did this should share the blame of a stupid situation. It’s like people can’t comprehend there are shades of grey.

        Who said they weren’t both fucking idiots? No one is parading the one that got shot around like they’re some kind of hero.

        Still doesn’t change the fact that Rittenhouse went there to shoot people and is an unrepentant piece of shit.
