Here is a good video breakdown:

Listening to the Fox News report on this this morning, you’d think Rittenhouse was a bad guy—a “militia” member (think Timothy McVeigh), with nothing to suggest he might have fired in self-defense.
Learnin much about the 17 year old shooter.What about the background and records of the two white guys he shot in apparent self defense?
America’s best and brightest yawns.
Never bring a skateboard to a gun fight.
90% chance the charges are dropped or significantly reduced. 100% chance that if it goes to trial he will be found innocent due to self defense.
Why are leftists such racists?
I think he was in the right, but he’s kinda screwed.
1. He had to drive for 20 minutes to get there. That will be interpreted as “He was looking for a fight.”
2. He was under 18 and open carrying a long arm. I think WI has laws against people under 17 open carrying.
Add to that the fact that the WI government is pretty leftist, he is in a bit trouble. The fact that the scumbags he shot were just that - criminal scumbags - won’t mean a thing.
IF you can afford it, see if he has some funding websites. He’s going to need all the help he can get.
The people at the gas station and the business next door didn't just wander up to it.
The people at the gas station were trying to defuse a tense situation. They repeatedly stated that they did not disagree with the protestors and were just there to protect the property. Isn't that what anybody with common sense would say in that situation?
And isn't it true that most people across the country agree with the idea that the excessive use of deadly force by the police is not a good thing, and that black lives, along with every other life, matters?
I think it’s quite telling that the left is actually saying that Americans should just sit down and allow punks to beat them to death with skateboards, and if self defense is implemented, they get charged with murder.
They went after a child showing clear intent to harm, and they’re the ones being called, “Victims.”
Should be really eye opening for the millions of new gun owners since January.
Joseph Rosenbaum...the guy that took the shot to the head had an interesting rap sheet. He was a registered sex offender and pedophile.
God works in mysterious ways
I think this guy needs to lawyer up, (with a GOOD lawyer, not these lefties like Flynn’s first lawyers, who screwed him,) and get his story out.
The longer the leftie narrative is out there, the more it will solidify, and become leftie “truth.”
America and its younger generation is in dire need of new Christian conversion.
It seems many are looking to believe in something, but are pursuing all kinds of false, violent, materialist, worldly ideologies.
The young man shouldn’t have been there but I think he was justified in shooting his assailants.
This is slightly off topic but why was he alone? They went after him because he had been separated from the herd.
He was with his buddies at the gas station. He never should have left on his own.
In that situation, always move in a group, at the very least in twos, never by yourself.
Kyle Rittenhouse is a bloody hero.
Give him a medal already. And put him in the special forces.
With the examples of Portland and Seattle and Chicago before them, there is no way that the leaders didn't know what would happen next.
So what did they do? Make bilious pronouncements about "racial injustice", charged the cops, and restricted police reaction.
Then when the police were finally doing something, it was point defense around a threatened government building, while everyone watched a bunch of ill-trained and overarmed visitors "defend" a gas station - in full view of the police, while it was well known that the aggressive Leftists were also armed - the formula for throwing the whole mess into violent chaos.
I'm glad that the young man lived through it even happy that three crazed thugs are out of the business - but the fact that an armed 17 year old was in that mess at all is insanely stupid. What were his parents doing?
If it's serious enough for citizens to enter into it, armed - then those citizens need to be well-trained, disciplined, and properly led and ready for battle, not parading around with ARs slung, spouting nonsense to anyone with a video camera.
In some respects the second shooting is similar to the shooting in Albuquerque In June. Baca, the shooter, illegally carried a concealed handgun at a rally to tear down a statute. He and a woman protester blocking him tangled with her going to ground. The antifa mob immediately attacked him including with a skateboard. Baca used pepper spay before retreating down the street pursued by the mob. When they caught up with him and pulled him to ground, the one with a skateboard attacked and Baca pulled his gun and shot him several times. He did not die but suffered critical injuries.
Baca has been charged with attempted murder by the “progressive” DA who was elected with Soros support. He did get bonded out of jail but has a long road ahead of him to defeat the libs who are out to get him. BTW, the police that night were hiding behind a building forbidden to interfere until after the shooting. Also, the NM Civil Milita, a volunteer group was on site, armed, but not associated with Baca. They protected Baca, who dropped his weapon after the shooting, from harm before the police arrived. In addition to taking Baca into custody, they arrested all the milita members and confiscated their weapons.
The commentary (”The multiracial libertarian group had been initially supportive” ...) in the excerpt begins about 3 hours after the groups had formed up and were marching. The bad stuff began about a half hour-45 later.
