I haven't really been following the trial.
That being said, IDK if that this confession alone would sway me if I was on the jury. I mean, Rittenhouse did just shoot someone in the head. Then you had these guys, probably thinking they were the good guys, chasing him down. The guy with the gun didn't shoot Rittenhouse. Why not? Maybe he thought he could hold him at gun point till the cops came or to do a citizens' arrest.
Clearly, both parties thought they were the good guys with guns.
I would agree, all involved thought they were in the right, except for Rosenbaum, all this carnage rests on him, hell, he may of committed suicide?
As for Gaige, his gun was lower, he never got shot, when he directed it to Kyle, he got shot..was he going to shoot Kyle? we'll never know for sure, but if you point it, all bets are off. To be fair, Kyle had his rifle pointed as well, important to note..he only fired when Gaige directed his gun.
first rule of gun safety, all guns are loaded until you verify they aren't.
Second rule is never point your weapon at something you don't intend to kill.

Look what happened is absolutely terrible and should have been avoidable on so many instance but the fact that the dude went up and told the #ing truth, I can applaud that.
Dismiss this #ing case.

to be honest he tried not to tell the truth. it was only after he was confronted by evidence (a still clearly showing him with the gun aimed at Rittenhouse,and stating it was right before his "bicep was "expletive" obliterated") , and got himself trapped in his lie. was the truth finally, almost painfully drawn out of him. so not much applause from me for "telling the truth". without that evidence shoved in his face, and thus shown that he would be caught perjering himself (a criminal offense remember), he would have continued in his lie that his hands were up, and was not a threat.
Sure, in fact this Prosecutor is already a dumpster fire.

The prosecution has been blowing this case from the get go. Even the corrupt MSM is having a hard time lying about the court room narrative.
It's getting real cold in Wisconsin though. Will the libs find the courage to riot when Kyle is acquitted?

The two brothers? How so? Lying about the situation?

Yes, my bad. I edited my post. I just caught up to the part where the witness shared these details. He past makes him a bit less credible.

Video that the FBI kept under wraps for 13 months demonstrated that Kyle shot in self-defense. That's almost always the case when BLM or ANTIFA are after you.
I'd forgotten about that. The FBI broke the law by withholding exculpatory evidence. I certainly hope they find themselves on the receiving end of a lawsuit.
I've always been confused as to why so many cops seem to be sympathetic to these Antifa thugs. I wonder if its going to turn out that many of them are the kids of those cops.
