Nothing good can come from putting him up there.

I agree.I don't think he should have been up there.
And the sobbing would be somewhat indicative of wishing he hadn't done it.
In true self defense,you would have no regrets or remorse.
Now I'm not so sure what happens next.
In drag racing terms,he had a bye run and automatic win,but the car didn't start.

I agree, it may work out for him but I would not have taken the chance.

He might be able to buyback into the race if he loses on the bye run.

The idea that having taken someone's life, even in righteous self defense, would have absolutely no emotional impact on someone is ludicrous.

Maybe to you it is ludicrous.We don't always agree on everything. We know that from our Facebook conversations.

Most people aren't emotionless machines that can turn off any empathy for another person just because that person meant them harm. Sure it affects most people.

The defense (correction, Prosecuring attorney) attorney just got Rittenhouse to admit on record that he was driving his car frequently with expired drivers license.

And the Defense asked Rittenhouse about Groskreutz and we found out that Grosskreutz was turning over Porta pottys and starting fires. It appears that he was there to cause trouble for BLM. Plus said TWICE he was going to kill them if he caught them alone. Then he pulls a gun on Rittenhouse and got shot.

We also found out that EDiot is a "cower in the corner and hope someone else will protect me" if the shtf.

Agree^^^^. Nobody knows how they would react to anything like shooting another until they are actually in that position. You can think how you would do, but still not the same.

Personally I do think it would bother me a whole lot,but never been there so can not in all honesty say what I would do. Just like people telling what driver should have done after the wreck and what they would have done

I do not doubt he will get some charge. System is to chicken shyt of what liberal idiot will do if he is let go free from any charge as should be done. Same shyt as judges too chicken shyt to hear facts on shamlection and everyone asking where is evidence they have none because courts did not hear case because somebody missed a dot over a i.
What do you think the whole summer of destruction ,burning and trying to make everyone fear them was about last year? Terrorist's using terroir to get others to do as they want. Guess what some are too old, lived the hell out of life and just don't give a shyt and shooting their a$$ is not even going to cause a minutes sleep to be lost.

Ediot is a real bad @$$ behind the computer. Small man syndrome. Talks big like people are some how impressed with his pitiful little life and lives vicariously through those who can drive. Those who Can. Do. Those who cant talk.

says this forums biggest joke, a LOSER, a nobody, a broke dyck with JUNK confirm by a guy at Indy that grew up with him and this punk kid that though he was billy badass is going to prison for years!

For example, yes, at age 19, Rosenbaum was sentenced to prison for sexually abusing five children — all boys between the ages of 9 and 11 — in Arizona’s Pima County in early 2002, according to his case file obtained via a public records request by Snopes.

The documents said Rosenbaum was temporarily living with the boys’ parents after his mother had kicked him out for disobeying her rules about one month earlier. Over the course of his weeks-long stay, Rosenbaum molested the boys, showed them porn, and performed oral sex on them, among other offenses, the documents showed. He was sentenced to prison for roughly 15 years, and authorities believed at the time “his risk to recidivate being of great concern to the community” considering the victims’ gender and age. (Let us note here: The records included an interview with Rosenbaum in which he said his stepfather sexually abused him and his brother on an almost daily basis when he was a preteen.)

Considering that evidence, the claim that Rosenbaum at one point was convicted of sexually abusing at least one child before his death was true.

Prosecution, of course, is arguing past sins of Rosenbaum are irrelevant to the shooting.

Wideopen231,
I was in that position while on guard duty during a riot. We came across a car on a side street well after curfew. Had the man get out of his car with his hands up. He did but then he reached for his back pocket and I chambered a round in my 45 but couldn't pull the trigger. As it was he was going for his ID but we didn't know that. We would have been justified is shooting. If he had of come out with a gun he was going down but we hesitated for a split second. I wouldn't have been able to live with myself if it had gone the other way. I'll never forget that feeling.

More information about Rosenbaum.

He had just been released from Mental institution that very day for attempting suicide. Then he threatens to kill Rittenhouse and chases him. Looks to me like he basically committed Suicide.

Suicide by stupidity.

Colonel Klink has once again cut the wrong wire.
KABOOM. We may well see a directed verdict of acquittal, and not even make it to the jury.

I know for sure that I WOULD take the stand in my own defense. If you don't believe in yourself, why should anyone else?? He did fine.

Won't do a minute of time. NONE.

RIP

He did great.
He'll get off.

Once that video showed him retreating (and him outlining what was going threw his mind) and then being blocked from going any further and the dead guy chasing him and lunging toward him screaming he's going to kill him, that solidified it.

That's why the prosecutor is shooting (pun intended) for a mistrial because he knows he can't win , video doesn't lie. He was NOT the aggressor, the dead guys were.

The part that I don't get is how stupid do you have to be to actually confront/chase someone with a rifle?
Really.

If you ever had bullets flying over your head you would not hesitate to shoot that shooter. You live or he lives, period. Think about it later?, not much.
