    1. It wasn’t a word fight, both sides had devolved to rioting by this point.

    2. It was his home state through his father.

    3. No records show him harassing “peaceful” protesters, but the first man that was shot’s girlfriend testified he had reached for Rittenhouses weapon, the second guy was attempting to knock him over with a scateboard, and the third guy was pointing a gun at him.

    4. It was self defense according to the law, which we can argue is or is not murder, in which case even if it is self defense is a good thing.

          He didn’t live with his father at this time, which is why he had to get a ride from out of state from his mom

        That they chased down and atempted to beat, if you want to consider him an active shooter and they were still doing their civic duty it is still self defense according to the law.
