The evidence supporting Kyle Rittenhouse as defending himself is rather significant. If you want me to change my position, you& #39;ll have to present something more than outrage & projection. To start, there& #39;s footage of him fleeing from his original assailant, Joseph Rosenbaum. https://twitter.com/iDanSimpson/status/1299775930274115586">https://twitter.com/iDanSimps...

This video matches Rittenhouse& #39;s account, in which there were shots fired prior & he was immediately faced with Rosenbaum attempting to seize his weapon. This was prior to him shooting anyone, and he is clearly trying to deescalate.

There& #39;s additional video footage of Joseph Rosenbaum taunting others, who were present to deter looting and arson, as we& #39;ve seen for months prior in Portland. This also matches Rittenhouse& #39;s account. The man saying "Shoot me, n*gga" at the end of this video is Joseph Rosenbaum.

In addition to this, Joseph Rosenbaum is an ex-convict, who was imprisoned for sexual misconduct with a minor. Since he is deceased, registry has taken him down, but it& #39;s possible to substantiate this through an archived webpage listing offenders.

After the second confrontation, in which Rittenhouse was attacked by two armed men (one with a firearm, the other with a skateboard) which he shot, he can be seen walking toward police with his hands up, and surrendering. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rRa3h7RHHvg">https://www.youtube.com/watch...

He later returned home to Illinois, and turned himself in to Antioch police. Which makes the claims that he was fleeing or resisting arrest rather dubious, on the face.
