I am upset. Having seen some of the footage before the trial, read some of the media coverage, and conversed with people who had consumed more, I was not prepared for how corrupt of a trial this would be. Kyle Rittenhouse acted in accordance with the legal expectations and definitions of Self Defense.
I realize Kyle was under extreme pressure there but it didn't exactly help that he (being so young and inexperienced and dare I say borderline dimwitted) couldn't rationalize his position to this slimey prosecutor better. I mean he barely withstood the onslaught of sophistry and could have used some of your reasoning skills and language. :)
How dare you write something so coherent and apply logic thoughtfully.
Well said.
