[QUOTE="ORCUS DEMENS, post: 333252, member: 1779"] While many of the members here are doing a victory dance for Kyle, the instructions from the judge per Wisconsin law were the reason he was not convicted of criminal charges. Kenosha County Circuit Judge Bruce Schroeder instructed the jury to consider whether Rittenhouse provoked the attacks. According to [URL="https://docs.legis.wisconsin.gov/statutes/statutes/939/iii/48"]Wisconsin law[/URL], "a person is privileged to threaten or intentionally use force against another for the purpose of preventing or terminating what the person reasonably believes to be an unlawful interference with his or her person by such other person." [URL="https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/crime/how-wisconsin-s-self-defense-law-ensured-kyle-rittenhouse-s-acquittal/ar-AAQV2Kk?ocid=msedgntp"]How Wisconsin's self-defense law ensured Kyle Rittenhouse's acquittal (msn.com)[/URL] The way I read this is you can point a gun at a person, when they react to your threat you can shoot. That is one messed up law. Conceal carry stresses pull the trigger only as a last resort. Castle doctrine did not apply in this case as: 1. Rittenhouse was not defending his property. 2. The property owners did not request his help in defending the lot. 3. If he was scared, he should have retreated long before he confronted the first victim. Apparently he wanted to be a law enforcement officer. Note no law enforcement officers discharged their weapons at this protest. This young man is no hero. He is a foolish child who has not learned critical thinking skills. He most likely will never realize his aspiration of a career in law enforcement. He was not convicted of criminal charges where the burden of proof is very high. Civil charges, which are likely to follow have a lower burden of proof. His fortunes will probably not be as successful there. [/QUOTE]
