    Okay, your talking about the guy who actually attacked Rittenhouse, not claiming that Rittenhouse was attacked so much by the left that he was driven to vigilantism.

    So, 2 main responses to that:

    1. Rittenhouse engineered a situation in which if skateboard guy had killed Rittenhouse that also likely would have been dismissed as self defense. (Crazy guy was walking around threatening people with a gun).

    2. Someone attacking Rittenhouse still doesn’t address my question of “Why was he there in the first place?”
      See, this is why I was confused by your reponse. I asked “Why was he there?” “Someone attacked him while he was there” does not answer the question why was he there in the first place? so clearly you must have meant something else.

    (See? I restated the question and clarified why your response was irrelevant. I didn’t just say “Red herring” and act like I won something.)
