If Rittenhouse was just hanging out with his family at home and some thugs broke in and threatened everyone and he shot the intrudes dead then I would 100% support him and my kids if they did the same. That’s pure self defence. That’s not what Rittenhouse did. My definition of the right to self defence incudes the concept of the obligation to reasonably avoid  obvious danger except to defend life.  Life, not property. Going to a planned political protest open carrying with an AR-15 fails that test for me.

I have taught my kids that human life is more important than property. I taught that if they are ever mugged to just let go without protest, it’s just not worth it. Stuff can be replaced, they can’t.

I would be happy to support a federal level pledge to fully reimburse property owners who are victims of vandalism by riots if that prevents future cases of Rittenhouses feeling the need to open carry to “ protect property”.

Regardless I condemn Rittenhouses actions that night and would  feel disappointed and a parental failure if my kids did the same [/quote]
