LOL Rittenhouse was not defending himself. He was hunting wabbits.
Rabbits don't charge at ya. Something charges at you and you kill it, that's classic self defense. Those boys in black should have seen the kid with the gun and -- like rational people -- said: "Y'know? That boy's got a gun. I
could charge at him and get shot... or I could, on the other hand,
not do that."
Did they get paid in lead? Yup. But did they put in some work to earn that pay? Also yup.
