some minor gun offense.

Defense will claim that first murder was self-defense because all video shows is an angry man chasing Rittenhouse into a parking lot where we lose video. Don't believe there are any witnesses to what happened at that point.

The second shooting, the victim pulled his own pistol on Rittenhouse.

In the third shooting -- and second murder -- the victim attacked Rittenhouse with a skateboard.

Rittenhouse tried to surrender to police.

I'd lock him away for strutting around with a rifle, and wearing his hat backwards. But, the defense needs to convince just one juror that the punk was in fear of his life and was attacked first.
