There were protesters there with guns too, so I don’t know that works. The guy who lost his bicep pulled a gun on Rittenhouse. And he had just as much right to protect property as they had to destroy it. The icing on the cake is they were rioting because a police shooting that was ruled justified. If Rosenbaum doesn’t chase Rittenhouse threading to kill him none of this happens. If Rittenhouse didn’t have a gun he just is another forgotten victim of “revolution”, like the old lady that was beat down in Rochester by like 4 protesters trying to protect her shop.
