Prosecutors Want to Use Video of Kyle Rittenhouse Allegedly Expressing Desire to Shoot a Black Man with His 'AR'

Also, them breaking the law doesn't excuse Rittenhouse breaking the law.

You're trying to use kyle's supposed breaking the law to excuse the unlawful actions of the rioters who tried to kill kyle that night.

You're argument also ignores the fact that he deliberately injected himself into the situation which voids the self defense claims.

Firstly, your. Secondly in wisconsin there's a clause in the self defense statute. If someone is in the commission of a crime (big if, and this is assuming kyle was the aggressor **which he absolutely was not** proof of the first person shot being the instigator) and they remove themselves from the situation, by fleeing, and are pursued. They can use lethal force against the person who they previously victimized and are now chasing them and they perceive as a threat to their life.

"The privilege lost by provocation may be regained if the actor in good faith withdraws from the fight and gives adequate notice thereof to his or her assailant." Wisconsin state law 939.48 2B Kyle's running away is adequate notice to his assailant that he is withdrawing from the fight. The assailant pursuing him allows him to use deadly force to defend himself.
