To summarize the events, Rosenbaum initiated Kyle Rittenhouse aggressively, threatened his life, and chased him. Rosenbaum knew Kyle was armed, yet still threatened him and chased him down. Kyle defended himself. Afterward, he made himself a non-threat and stood by and called his friend to tell him what happened. Bystanders became confused and hostile toward Kyle while trying to figure out exactly what happened, so Kyle thought best to move away and start walking toward the police. While walking, people started pointing out and calling out Kyle as an active shooter. Confused bystanders then took it upon themselves to mob Kyle and attack him, thinking he was still a threat. After being kicked, attacked with a skateboard, and having a pistol pointed at him, he fired back at the mob, killing one more, and injuring the armed man who pointed a pistol at him. He then walked and turned himself over to police. In no circumstance did Kyle ever fire his weapon at someone not actively trying to attack him. Whatever you think Kyle's true motives were, or opinions are, are irrelevent. Fact of the matter is, each instance of him discharging his weapon was in legal self defense, while being attacked. Crossing state lines doesnt change this fact. Having his weapon illegally doesnt change this fact. Lying about being a certified medic doesnt change this fact. All the attacks on his character are completely irrelevent to the situation of self defense.

Kyle Rittenhouse was simply a good citizen who came out to help the store owners and police who were being overwhelmed. What happened was tragic, but NOT his fault after he was attacked by rioters and he defended his own life. End of story!
