~~and immaturely wanting to be a vigilante protector of businesses at the inexperienced age of 17. Me dino would not allow my teenager to do such a thing, especially in another town, but I can recall sneaking out of the house at Kyle's age.
In the video, we first see Kyle Rittenhouse being chased by one punk while carrying a semiautomatic AR-15 or what Bolshevik Beto O'Dork calls "A WEAPON OF WARRRR!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BFqHy...
The punk appears to strike Kyle from behind. More punks are seen in pursuit as Kyle runs on. Kyle then falls. Can't tell if he fell or was hit by something thrown. That does not matter.
What matters is that several punks attacked Kyle when he was down on his back.
Kyle opens fire. He only shoots attackers, who receives Darwin Awards, one posthumously, for attacking someone with a firearm. No one else. One punk raises his hands. Kyle simply gets up and leaves.
He walks on tries to tell police in several vehicles what had just happened.
Me dino hopes Kyle is found not guilty.

    Here is my experience. 41 years ago, deer hunting in N.E. Wis., 16 y/o with 10 years of safety and use training. Because I was going into heavy cover I dressed over 90% blaze. The morning "move" had finished and I began a very cautions still hunt through an ice film crusted lowland. At least 4 shots (rifle) were fired in my direction. I'm glad I don't remember the stream of invective I issued forth. And then I heard the laughing and two more shots. I am very fortunate for the training I had, as there were no dead drunks that day. To this day I have very occasional bouts of anxiety and have sought counsel with friends who are combat survivors. I really feel for this kid and what his emotional future holds.

    The scale and timing of the Charges is interesting.
    No time for investigation prior to releasing. Political to assuage any uprising by "protesters" the following day. So "charged" that dismissal with prejudice, after trial, makes future indictment very difficult.

    Aw, that couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.
    (Or what a coworker corrections officer at the prison said to me dino when a nightmare for a bad warden died of a heart attack).

    I saw a photograph of the gun in hand punks arm after he was shot. Looked like parts of the forearm and bicep were missing at the elbow. I know I shouldn't have and, I tried to resist but.....I smiled.
    If he is right handed, It likely ruined his sex life.

    I won't call myself a firearms expert but I'm a trained shooter who saw what Ayoob saw. Save for the Molotov cocktail. Heard someone else say that on Fox News last night.
    Evil sadistic thug wanted to burn Rittenhouse alive. Glad he was rewarded with a .223,

    Firearms expert Massad Ayoob was interviewed recently on the radio about this case. Ayoob is a former law enforcement officer and has been a firearms and self-defense expert who has written articles in gun magazines for several decades. I remember reading his articles 40 years ago. Ayoob said he watched the video and stated that Rittenhouse clearly exercised self-defense. He was chased by a mob and fired only after he was attacked. The first guy he shot had just thrown a lighted Molotov cocktail at him, and he was also struck in the head be a skateboard. These antifa and BLM insurrectionists are communists, organized and paid for by someone(?) - George Soros? Communist Chinese? I think we'll find out. These pigs are begging for war and we need to meet the enemy and prevail!

    Disclaimer: I am not reading all 50 comments.

    I am a CCW holder and I train so I am hard to kill and hard to convict. There are 5 elements of self defense, and you must meet all 5. If any one is missing, you have a problem. The kid made all 5 in both incidents. Of course the best way to win a gun fight is to not be there.

    He just handed out Darwin awards to the richly deserving. Quite well, too.
    Weapon control amazing for a youngster.

    Just saw an extended version of the 2nd shooting and Kyle appears to fire about 6 times at nothing when no one was near him at all. (After the 2nd and 3rd shootings.) Then he walked directly toward emergency vehicles with his hands in the air.
    Except for that display of force at nothing, his firing appeared to be controlled and effective.

    Those rioters are but an extension of the Radical Left and any opposition is the enemy.
    Okay by me. Me dino considers the Radical Left to be the domestic enemy of the USA and that goes for Fake News too.

    The Radical Left would like nothing better than to prosecute the young who is trying to protect himself as opposed to the rioters who are trying to assault him.

    That's another viable theory. Me dino read lots of Sherlock Holmes during visits to a laundromat during the Seventies. He worked with theories until story by story working his way with evidence and reason to the truth. Yet what is elementary, my dear Watson, is me dino ain't no Sherlock Holmes.

    "minors that are 16 years of age or older can openly carry long guns, provided they are not considered "short-barreled rifles" or "short-barreled shotguns" and are not otherwise prohibited from possession of firearms." stolen from Wikipedia, but accurate."
    That quote is from Wikipedia but it seems to be accurate. The gun was owned by a Wisconsin resident and was on loan. It was never carried across state lines. I don't think there is even a weapons charge here.

    Suspect it was just bad luck that it was a worse than usual flu this year....but since it hit them....they purposely made sure it propagated outside China while quarantining Wuhan from the rest of their country. All on the theory that if everyone has it the net affect on China isn't as bad as it would be if only china had it.

    Between Russia and the CCP, I'd bet the CCP the most likely to be behind something like that.
    After all, my favorite conspiracy is that, whether Covd-19 got loose in Wuhan accidentally or deliberately, the CCP biologically attacked the world in a hope of somehow getting that troublesome Trump out of their hair in exchange for someone more pliable at the bargaining table.

    Thank you for posting that video.
    I'd like to buy Kyle a beer at age 21 myself.
    Think he would make an excellent combat serviceman. Maybe even a SEAL.

    Indeed -- what you have reported is what transpired. And those attackers are just that -- Punks. Soft wood. A sum of zeros. Darwin awards served up quite nicely. I find affinity with Kyle. I also have an AR, the training and the mental willingness to put down a rabid dog if the dog engages in the initiation of violence. I hope that many on the left see the videos of what took place and begin to truly wake up. The leftists consist of a mob of zeroes. They literally do not know how to fight. Members of the libertarian / propertarian / conservatives have a sense of self: self-worth, self-control, self-autonomy. They are individuals and will engage when confronted with threats to their person and property. I get the gut feeling that the heat is being deliberately turned up -- and we will see more of this as individuals on the 'right' take up arms against the mindless leftist mobs.
