It's a partisan issue when you use your second amendment rights to defend yourself from multiple people trying to physically assault you and take your weapon, while you're attempting to retreat the entire time?
Interesting.

Exactly.
Everybody casually mentioning “Oh he showed up at the riot” like that’s not the main issue.
Like it’s a normal gathering or congregation that’s supposed to take place and he was in the wrong place.
Bottom line is, no riot, no incident.

No, making it about that made it partisan.

Self defense shouldn't be a partisan issue, no matter the weapon used (bat, gun, knife, etc). It is interesting to see so many do an about face in regards to victim blaming.

Sure, but we were talking about the defense of Rittenhouse, not the idea of self defense. I think there's a legitimate argument for self defense in the shooting of the guy with the skateboard. The first shooting is murkier from what I remember. I haven't really followed the case since the immediate aftermath. I'm not sure either of the murder charges are going to stick.
But beside those points, I can also not defend Rittenhouse's actions. It's not a 17-year old kid's job to take it upon himself to cosplay as a cop. But taking that position tends to earn the label of a liberal in support of those that chose to riot in Kenosha.

Who should do it when those people who’s actual job is to defend private property choose to stand idly by?

Dude shot a rapist and a child molester who were rioting. He did society a favor.

We are? I'm talking about the principle and laws regarding self defense.

It is. I believe there is footage we have no seen from a person following behind Rosenbaum (sp?) when he was shot that will likely be pretty crucial here.

How did he go about doing that? Do you have any evidence to show how he acted like a cop? Are all people who carry a gun "cosplaying as a cop", as you say?

If these worthless mayors and governors won't let police do their jobs, then it is up to business owners and families to protect their businesses.
I don't have any sympathy for any of these looters or rioters who get shot while trying to destroy people's businesses and ruin their ability to make a living.
The only thing Kyle did wrong was not shoot more of them.

I was. The question I initially responded to was asking why people would defend Kyle Rittenhouse. I think you can defend his right to self defense while also criticizing him for choosing to put himself in the position he found himself him. Saying that doesn't absolve anyone else involved that night for their actions.

I admire Kyle for having the balls to do the right thing and stand up for this country

He chose to put himself in what position exactly? You seem to be under the impression that he was out there acting like a cop to provoke others to attack him. I'll ask again, why do you think that? Because he was carrying a weapon? If not that, then what?
