Yeah, that's how self defense works. You cross state lines with an illegal weapon to go to an area rife with violence, so that you can "commit" self-defense.
Trump supporter Kyle Rittenhouse just wanted to see what its like to shoot someone on 5th ave and try to get away with it.
Simple yes or no question. Was Kyle acting in self defense when he fired his weapon at the man with the skateboard?

I predict the results of your poll will be bogus.
Please be clear...I don't think your poll is bogus. Just the results.
The reason it will be bogus is because of people like Aunt Antifa, who will respond to your poll while not knowing the facts.
So you believe that any Trump supporter who visits from another state deserves to be beaten into a pulp? Noted.
There is no point in that incident were Kyle did anything wrong. He was attacked by a mob. Dumb****s died and as far as I am concerned Mr. Rittenhouse cleaned up the gene pool good riddence to the scum.

You do know he was attacked with a skateboard because he had already killed someone and was still an active threat to the people on the street? So it may have been the skateboarder who was standing his ground against an armed assailant, which was a bit stupid but he must have hoped it would have incapacitated or disarmed him. Sadly that was not the case because he killed another person and wounded someone.
At least that is according to some reports what is known so far, we will have to wait and see if ever acted in self defense or whether he was the armed aggressor from the get go. Besides crossing interstate lines with a weapon which was already a crime in and of itself.

These people were going to murder him. Make no mistake about that.
Remind me to reject you from the jury pool.

illogical poll with no proper options, "unknown at this time/too early to tell" is the only proper response one can give to this opinion poll question.
This poll is about Kyle and the skateboard guy, thats it.
But... why? When are we going to discuss nuance and look at the big picture instead of playing the media's divide and conquer game?
We have no proof of that. The so called "MOB" looks to me like they're all running away. And I may be wrong, but hadn't the kid already shot someone else? Perhaps they were just trying to stop him from shooting again.
We do have proof however that he murdered two people.

The New York ****ing Times has said this was self defense. The New York Times. They actually properly reported on the incident. Surprised the hell out of me. Damn near every lawyer on the internet is saying the same thing. Self defense. If was me at the start of that thing, there would have been a lot more people dead much faster, I would not have run, I would have attacked, pressed and kept shooting until I had cleared the area. That's the way I train. If it moved it would have been engaged. Anything that even slightly looked like a threat within 50 meters would have been serviced. I practice this at home. I can service 3 rounds per target 4 30 rd. mags in 40 seconds. 40 separate targets Mozambique style. That's slow. Very slow actually. Most service guys should be able to do that faster by about 10 seconds or so. That kid had much more restraint than most if not all military and leo types would have. I dont have near the restraint of those guys. I routinely fail the shoot, no shoots skills test. That mob was VERY lucky, they have no idea how lucky they are. None.

Even if it’s true that he crossed state lines with a weapon that would still constitute a misdemeanor.

Absent that gun how would you have defended yourself?
