    What Rittenhouse did was a huge problem, obviously. I’m just frustrated he took the entire fall while the store owner who hired a kid with a rifle trained only to kill with it instead of trained security and the militia who raised Rittenhouse only to kill in the name of fascism get away just fine and will continue to generate problems like this.

    Edit: This is based on my recollection of reading about the event soon after it happened. I had read Rittenhouse came from a militia background, when in fact he was only involved with militias in Kenosha though participated in some police programs. It was initially reported that the business sought out Rittenhouse to guard their building but the owners later claimed they did not although whether they did is still controversial.
