    I like to see them as actual people rather than animals. So maybe you should take a look at your own values. Back to the dehumanising. Did JB in any way act stupid?

    I believe in the US people have the right to protest. Is that stupid?

    I'd say your mask is slipping but you aren't a fan of them either.

    "His only regret was not killing the kid" - Is this not dehumanising language? this from the guy who wants to defund the police.

    Apologies, I meant Mr. Rittenhouse rather than Jacob Blake.

    He probably should have stayed with his group rather than becoming separated from them.

    His only regret after been shot was that he didn't kill him. If the 17 year old hadn't shot him. It would probably be a different story. But you make your own wee little agenda there like good proud boy.

    He probably should have stayed the hell at home and not murdered two people.

    That is not dehumanizing no. It is certainly not protected speech though and will undoubtedly be used against him in court.

    They didn't do anything illegal by protesting. Kid did by illegally carrying his AR15 across state lines.

    So shooting at him and throwing a molotov cocktail at him was legal?

    Nobody is blameless in this.

    To protest? That's what happens when a society disravels because of an inept police force/strategy.

    Every single person there who was not a cop was there illegally as it was past the curfew. You should broaden your avenues of information. It will help you think for yourself more.

    Who shot at him? As far as I understand, there was shots fired in the air.
    There was no Molotov cocktail thrown. That was just right wing propaganda. It's embarrassing how little some people actually think for themselves rather than believe biased news such as the daily wire. Educate yourself before you start pontificating.

    The point I was making was the opposite of that.

    Don't let facts get in the way of putting words in people's mouths and taking the moral high ground.

    Same old nonsense.

    What's embarrassing is the misinformation you are peddling in the face of the clear evidence of the videos of the incident.

    To be fair Rittenhouse had his back to the shot fired in the air while being chased.

    For all he knew the shot was at him.

    What was pistols guys excuse for firing shots into the air? He escalated the situation.

    That's your opinion of the matter. Do you dispute the sequence of events, as evidenced in the video?

    Run me through the sequence as you see it. The videos I've seen of the incident suggest to me that it was premeditated ( carried an assault rifle across state lines), shot people who were trying to disarm him.

    If you justify his shooting of innocent (on the night), then you justify mass shooters shooting somebody trying to disarm them as self defence.

    The video is fairly conclusive in showing the event. The kid was chased by the crowd initially, corned and attacked by the first individual. He shot him, then fled from the crowd again. He was hit, knocked down and set upon by more individuals. He then shot two of the persons attacking him, got up and moved to the police's location.

    He had just murdered somebody. They were trying to subdue him. Why would all these people out of nowhere decide they want to start murdering him? Your bias is clouding your judgment. Feel a bit sorry for you if that's what you take away from the videos.

    He was chased in the videoof the first shooting, cornered and attacked. Do you dispute that?

    From his social media photos i didn't think much of him but after watching his interviews and the attacks on him by BLM/antifa it's hard to see how he was anything but a victim. If there were more people like him there would be fewer riots and less businesses burned to the ground. Just donated $20 to the legal fund.
