Is this the whole video or is it edited. It looks like they are in pursuit of the “shooter.” Was this incident here where he kills one and injured another after he killed another protester? You seem quick to judge this video as self defense and I don’t know it may be but the events leading up to this video are very important to make that determination.
This video is of the second shooting incident. Obviously when one guy is hitting you with a skateboard and the other guy is pointing a pistol at you it is self-defense. For H4M -- let's take a look at a screen shot from the video showing the guy with the pistol. IMO -- no reasonable DA would charge this shooter based on the videos that are available.
So this IS after the first homocide. That changes everything. Now we have to look at the laws in Wisconsin concerning imminent threat to the community and self defense. FYI self defense applies to the guy who was killed prior to this video. I will leave that to you but declaring self defense after fleeing to the scene of a homocide isn’t a cut and dry “reasonable” argument. Oh and that guy with the gun most likely has the right under state law to detain a person who just was involved in a homocide.
I don’t have any assertions other than jumping to a self defense conclusion is premature and uninformed.
Well we will see what happens. Certainly the situation is complex. Kenosha violence: Juvenile arrested in deadly shooting amid Jacob Blake unrest, Illinois police say https://www.foxnews.com/us/kenosha-...g-amid-jacob-blake-unrest-illinois-police-say A juvenile has been arrested in at least one of the two shooting deaths amid the unrest Tuesday night in Kenosha, Wis., Illinois police told The Associated Press on Wednesday. The suspect was arrested on suspicion of first-degree intentional homicide, Commander Norman Johnson of the Antioch Police Department said. Antioch is about 20 miles southwest of Kenosha. The shootings unfolded amid protests over Jacob Blake, a Black man shot during an encounter with Kenosha police last Sunday.
First degree intentional homocide. That’s quite a charge. But let’s all be serious, this is just another incident in a long, Long, LONG line of gun related deaths that easily preventable with some basic common sense laws.
Kenosha gunman Kyle Rittenhouse arrested for murder after cops let him flee out of state An Illinois teenager has been charged with first-degree murder in the fatal shooting of a demonstrator in Kenosha, Wisconsin. Kyle Rittenhouse, 17, of Antioch, was charged Wednesday with first-degree intentional homicide in a shooting late Tuesday during a clash between protesters of police brutality and right-wing militia group members. The militia members had gathered to protect a gas station from looters and vandals, and video shows police offer Rittenhouse water shortly before the shooting and thank him for being there. Another video shows Rittenhouse open fire with a rifle after he fell to the ground and then calmly walk toward police vehicles with his hands raised in surrender. Other people can be heard yelling that he had shot someone. However, no officers are seen getting out of the vehicles, which continue advancing toward protesters, to apprehend Rittenhouse — who then fled the state and was considered a fugitive. He was arrested later Wednesday back in his hometown. He is reportedly being held in the Lake County Juvenile Detention Center near Vernon Hills awaiting an extradition hearing. According to The Daily Beast, Rittenhouse’s Facebook page “included numerous photos with Blue Lives Matter-style pro-police slogans and imagery, as well as of an Armalite rifle similar to the one he appears to have been photographed carrying in Kenosha.”
