    You are comparing someone wearing clothes to someone else turning up a violent riot with a weapon to kill people, and then actively goes out to look for danger? And he had clothes thrown at him. He thought they wanted his gun.

    Yeah absolutely the same situation.

    Its incredibly strange to refer to rittenhouse as a victim

      He didn’t know what was thrown at him. Well, the guy tried to take his gun from him. So, it appears Kyle was right about his assumption.

      He is the victim. Three violent felons attacked him, and he had to use self-defense to protect himself from death or severe injury.

      The only people at fault here are three violent felons who wanted to harm Kyle.
