No, he wasn't, as he then didn't go to the nearest police station and turn himself in, after they drove past him, which he would have done if that were his intent (And he was raising because he was carrying a rifle and he didn't want them to shoot him).

Instead of turning himself in, he drove home to where he lived in another state. And if no footage of Kyle shooting this people had ever surfaced, IMO, he probably never would have turned himself in. 

We don't know what he would have done, only what he did. Once he was behind police lines, he was safe. He decompressed overnight and turned himself in. He'd just got done shooting three people, so whatever was going through his head, it was going through a million miles an hour.

We don't know...but you- and really squisition- are making assumptions and using them as rationales in your argument.

IMO he turned himself in all probability because he was aware there was videos out showing the shootings and witnesses who could identify him, not because he wanted to do the right thing. If he had done nothing the next day, it would just been a matter of time until police came knocking on his door.

Anthony Huber deserved to die for chasing after and trying to stop who he thought was an active shooter? I don't think so. If Rittenhouse had not tried to flee the scene of a killing, instead of waiting for authorities, Huber would still be alive. And, no, Kyle was not running to turn himself in to police as he walked right past them and then returned to his home in another state.

Gaige Grosskreutz should have been charged with murder? No, and not even with attempted murder, as while he pointed his hand gun at Rittenhouse, he did not fire it, which would a requirement to prosecute for attempted murder.

 

And by 'stop' you mean violently swinging a skateboard at his head which could have severely injuried or even killed him. That is not stopping, that is assault and possibly attempted murder.  Yes, the thug deserved to get a bullet in the chest.

Because bigotry is bigotry.  You either believe and treat all people equally or you are a bigot.  You look at white conservatives as non-human beings who can be hunted done and murdered and you don't give one crqp about his point of view.  To you, Rittenhouse is a sub-human being, not deserving the basic right to defend his life, exactly how Nazis viewed Jews.  Yes, that is exactly how evil the ideology you follow and you should be ashamed of yourself.  Just because the shoe is on the other foot, you fail to see the evil.

You don't know what was going through his mind because you're far off in left-wing land. I, on the other hand, might be closer to pulling that off since I can fully understand and appreciate why he was there and what he was hoping to accomplish.

When I see sh*tbags rampaging the city, I might feel inclined to go help a friend protect his livelihood the same way he did.  I've always admired the Rooftop Koreans of 1992. That's why, when I look at Kyle, I think that "there but for the grace of God go I."

This won’t do me any good but I’m gonna try anyhow. I don’t like Rittenhouse because of what I think he did. Not because he’s a white conservative. If he had been a black member of Antifa who had gone there and murdered people I still wouldn’t like him any more.

Rioting and looting is evil.  The correct response is for the police and national guard to stop it. When they refuse the correct response is to not sit on your arse and watch your city burn as thugs take it over and destroy it.  In your words, you entrely blame those with righteous motives who wish to prevent the destruction, not those who are actively destroying.

Kenosha isn’t Kyle Rittenhouse’s city. If he were a resident or business owner in Kenosha my attitude would be totally different. Get it?

I do not believe you for one moment.  Your view on every event is severely slanted by the politics of the individual.  Unfortunately that is where today's political left is.  They have created this new hierarchy which all things are judged on.  It is completely counter to a fair and just society.   It is fundamentally an evil ideology which justifies itself by past sins of people who died a long long time ago.  It has to stop.

Maybe after watching the democrat party sanctioned riots, burning and looting before Kenosha the businesses there didn’t want to lose theirs and they asked for help? Can you blame them? You liberals act like this happened in a vacuum.  It didn’t. There was a pattern that had played out for everyone to see, and it ended in the destruction of hard working peoples businesses.  The democrats had normalized political violence at that point and nothing was being done to stop it.

Family behind Kenosha car dealership says Kyle Rittenhouse wasn't asked to guard their property

Two brothers from the family-owned car dealership Kyle Rittenhouse said he was guarding on the night of the Kenosha shootings testified on Friday that neither had requested armed protection that night, from Rittenhouse or anyone else.

Sahil and Anmol Khindri said they both encountered Rittenhouse and other armed men on August 25, 2020, the day of the shooting, but only briefly.

In other words he doesn’t live there and wasn’t protecting his own house or property or that of his family. Therefore he had no business being there.

Fact check: Kamala Harris said she supports protests, not ‘riots’, in Late Show clip

[...]

VERDICT

Partly false. Harris’ comments on The Late Show expressing support for protests are authentic. However, there is no mention of riots or violent protests in this interview. Harris has previously condemned violent protests.
