When was it not self defense?
Was it not self defense when Rosenbaum, a convicted sex offender, chased after Rittenhouse, a minor at the time, for putting out his dumpster fire while his friend followed while recklessly shooting "warning shots" into the crowd?
Was it not self defense when he was punched in the head by a rioter and fell to the ground?
Was it not self defense when he was jump kicked in the face by another violent rioter while on the ground?
Was it not self defense when Huber, a convicted felon, was beating him with a skateboard and trying to rip the rifle out of his hands?
Was it not self defense when Grosskreutz pulled a gun on Rittenhouse after he lowered his rifle?

If Rittenhouse was not allowed to defend himself in those situations as you believe what was he supposed to do, wait to get shot to death by Grosskreutz or beaten to death by the rioters?

It was self-defense in exactly 40 seconds of the 2+ hours (or whatever expanse of time longer than the collective 40 seconds of him pulling a trigger to defend himself) of him coming over to hang out where he knows hes not needed or wanted

If he was of same mind to kill and make the distinction he was defending himself, then he was of sane mind to consider the repercussions of the real reality of bringing a gun pre-killing no?

Thats just instigating and it wouldnt be the fault of protestors kicking his ass, he clearly threw the first punch in his situation long before some guy threw a bunch of water at him hours later
