That is the objectively correct result based upon the system and laws as they currently exist.

This also continues to be true:

It's nice to know that if you want to kill people you can still just illegally put yourself in bad positions until the opportunity arises.


Well, unfortunately, this isn't something that can be changed by laws necessarily. It is currently illegal, as far as I know, to cause a death through acting recklessly. The problem is that the definition of "reckless" in a jury trial can only be defined by what society considers reckless. As sad as it is, we as a country, have determined that the actions taken by Rittenhouse and Zimmerman (on which I agree with others, that it is more egregious) are reasonable responses and not at all reckless. It is the symptom of a sick, violent, angry, fearful society.
