Not sure whether to peg him as a latter day Audie Murphy or Alvin York. Either way, he survived in a very hostile and unstructured environment with zero support from anyone. Very impressive young man.

This video update covers most of this material and is well laid out. It also shows what transpired just before Rosenbaum began chasing Rittenhouse across that parking lot.

Above is a long video (by Regg Inkagnedo)showing the first shooting at the car dealership. I wish I had the software to slow things down, pause, etc. Regg seems to travel to the various cities and films the riots live.

The first shot you hear is at about 3:59:07.

Just prior to that there is a bunch of shouting, about 3:58:50 and just to the left of the screen. Perhaps Antifa and red shirt guy yelling at Kyle.

At 3:58:54 there is a guy with a black shirt and backpack walking with the crowd of protestors in the street. He is just to the right of a tall guy in a white shirt, and appears to me to grab his pistol in low ready and starts to run in the direction of the shouting. The person on his right also takes off in the same direction - to where they are smashing the cars.

The video swings back to the left and skips over the cars taking a beating. (The cameraman makes a point a few minutes earlier about how he was warned not to video them.) The camera man does not see the escalated situation (now to the right of the screen for a few seconds).

Kyle comes running right to left, with Rosenbaum in pursuit. I believe it is the guy with the pistol that is running parallel and closer to the building (farther away from the camera) that fires a shot at 3:59:07 aiming towards Kyle.

The pistol guy is just to the left of the right-most light on the building. He raises his gun which coincides with the first shot. He then continues running to the left following Rosenbaum with gun raised.

In a later interview with Tucker Carlson, reporter McGinnis said that he heard a shot from behind him (and behind Rosenbaum) and that is when Kyle turned around to look at Rosenbaum.

The medical report said that Rosenbaum had been shot in the back. As he was laid out on the ground on his back, there did not appear to be an exit wound. I’ve been trying to do some research on ballistics. It appears that a 5.56 rifle round may not penetrate the stomach with lots of fluids? Although it would seem more likely that a pistol round fired from a distance into Rosenbaum’s back (from “friendly fire”) would not penetrate than a rifle round from 2 to 4 feet.

I imagine that the coroner won’t have to guess on ballistics as there will be bullets and fragments they can look at.

Hmm. Above is another view shot from where the cars were getting beat on. Maybe the guy that I think is the “gunman” just to the left of the bright light is actually McGinnis holding his camera up to get video???

What is the saying - only believe half of what you see?

Not to say that black shirt with a gun guy isn’t in that general area and takes a shot though.

I wonder if sound analysis can help with the shots.

Spent casings on the ground, etc.

IMHO, that video should have its own thread, if it doesn’t already.

More conjecture on that first long video of Regg’s.

At 4:01:09 they are carrying Rosenbaum to the hospital SUV. McGinnis is shirtless. Guy to his right with grey camo pack - is that black shirt guy with a gun that ran towards the action?

Is the guy behind McGinnis, holding Rosenbaum’s head the guy that was walking with black shirt guy? White pants, also went running towards Kyle? In this scene, white pant’s guy looks like he might be trying to keep the pistol from falling out of his pants as he helps Rosenbaum.

There was only ONE PERSON using the n-word that night, at least in the videos, and he was the first one to be dealt with.

Did anyone get the Glock pistol from the one guy who was running around with the other guy that was shot in the head? I wonder if the “bald guy red shirt” dude’s friend - the one who was shot in the arm - fired shots first? Thus forcing the 17 yr to shoot back - killing the bald guy - then the Glock carrying friend of the bald guy — chasing him down - get’s one in the arm. This was a set up on the 17 yr old.

Then again - none of these people needed to be out there doing anything... in the end, the best choice is to remove your business from democrat held cities - and go elsewhere.

See my posts 23 and 26. I think it was black shirt backpack guy (Antifa) that fired the first pistol shot. And I bet they find a pistol round in Rosenbaum’s back.

...we have not got a life history...

I’ve been struck by that, as well.

It says he has led a quiet life, so far (he’s only 17). His family, too. They must have tried to find something they could leverage against him and all I can find is that he is a libertarian who agreed with anti-racism, but did not agree with the rioting and violence. Not the narrative they are looking for.

YT videos have speed control under settings.

When watching tutorials, I often slow it way down and then hit the double line to stop at a point I want to examine. When watching other videos, I often play at 2x speed, then go to normal when I actually want to listen. I also use cc for dialogue.

The law firm Pierce Bainbridge, which has represented President Trump’s personal attorney Rudy Giuliani and former Trump adviser Carter Page, is representing Kyle, and has released a 3 page statement. This was arranged by Lin Wood.

Kyle was a life guard. After work he was helping to clean up after the prior night’s riot. A request for help went out. He and his friend went to help.

The gun belonged to the friend and never went across state lines. It was in Wisconsin the whole time. It was all self defense.

This whole incident tells me they are not tough.

That is for sure. They are a collection of criminals similar to a pack of dogs. Alone if you stomp your foot at them they will run away. But they are very dangerous when the pack outnumbers the people they are attacking by a huge ratio. They were emboldened when they realized that they were going after a very young person. When cornered the kid had a weapon, training, more hardiness than expected and survival instinct and the Good Lord on his side. These animals know that the adult authorities have their hands tied and expect that they will come to their assistance if someone actually defends himself. They are very afraid when they find that there might be consequences to their actions.

No one will miss the two thugs that are dead and the media will not celebrate them because they have the wrong skin color. If the kid's family has any assets, unfortunately the one with the injured arm will sue them. And the media can be counted on to slander the family and the kid. We can't have a shining example for people who defend themselves.

Well if there is a GoFundMe for the kid I will donate a few bucks and if he avoids prison and plays his cards right he can be a right-wing rock and roll star on the talk show circuit.

And there’s always a book to be written.

But I guess that’s the capitalist in me :-)

As for the kids that died that they would make good mulch

With that baby face? Audie Murphy for sure!

And lucky, but with the luck of a capable man who makes his own luck. I'll bet he wishes he did more cardio tho, he was seriously lagged by the time he made it to the police line.

GoFundMe removed it.

There is a separate site with Lin Wood:

Still waiting for the ballistics report on Pedo Rosenbaums wounds to see if he actually was killed by 4 rounds from an AR 15 at close range...
