You are a liar.
You called young Rittenhouse a murderer.

Here's the biggest problem for the prosecutor dismissing the case, especially the reason given for doing so....the prosecutor is telling us that had the clerk lived, he could have been charged with aggravated assault and/or attempted murder and murder if he had killed the robber. If the robber was acting in self-defense, that's saying the clerk was the primary aggressor and not within his rights to do what he did. So had he lived, we'd be looking at the robber getting off and the clerk who was robbed being charged with a class A felony. That is the justice system in California.

I said that he killed two people, that he was legally justified and that he would not be convicted.

Depending upon local law, I can see an argument that his fleeing the scene might mean that the crime of theft was complete and that the shots fired at him as he was fleeing become a separate attempted assault by the clerk. If so, self-defense WOULD perhaps come into play. Barry?
So now we are treating murder like the continuation foul rule in the NBA. Sounds like proper moral baseline to continue running a 1st world country.

IF the original felony is defined as being complete, he would not have still been engaged in a felony when he fired the shots.

In what state (or country) is self-defense referred to as "murder"?

State laws vary in a lot of ways.
In some states, the crime is defined as “murder,“ and in other states it is defined as “homicide“ (both usually of varying degrees).
In most states, the elements of the crime (whether it is called “murder“ or “homicide“) are essentially the “intentional killing of another person.”
In every jurisdiction, self defense is an “affirmative defense“ which must be pleaded by the defendant.
If it is pleaded by the defendant, the burden of proof varies from state to state. Sometimes the state must disapprove the affirmative defense. Sometimes, the defendant must prove that it is applicable.
In both types of jurisdiction, however, the entire legal basis for an affirmative defense is an admission of the underlying offense, but establishing that the defendant’s actions were legally justified by the circumstances.
In the Rittenhouse case, the defendant did commit a “murder” or a “homicide,” but would not be convicted of the offense due to the justified nature of his actions.
Yes, that seems contrary to the way a lay person looks at the matter. I understand that. I have said that 1000 times. But, legally, that is the way it works.

Are you being intentionally obtuse? I know that my communication skills are far better than you seem to be pretending.
The offense is defined in some states, as “murder“ and in other states has “homicide.“ In Texas, for instance, Rittenhouse would have been charged with “murder,“ rather than whatever homicide offense it is that he was charged with in Wisconsin.
In other words, the “unlawfully“ language that you (as a layperson) associate with the word “murder“ is NOT a part of the legal definition.
The “unlawful“ concept comes into play in the… wait for it… affirmative defenses.
An individual can violate section 19.02, but still not be convicted of a crime if he is able to establish a legal justification for his actions.
