Have people not been arrested for planning acts of domestic terrorism? He was part of an active Facebook group that had comments of shooting protestors, and he was given a firearm. Is this not planning an act violence? Seems like it. Is it really self defence if there was pre-meditated violence? He went there after posting with the group and allowed the group to arm him. I think there's more to the case of why hes there to begin with and if it really is self defense. I agree with everyone here that the shots themselves were defensive, but again like others said is it really self defense. Well see what the jury decides.
I would have to do some digging but I bet there's been similar cases in the past with those engaging in radical online groups and possessing the means to carry out violence via the acts described in those groups.
Honestly, without further evidence, I don't think Rittenhouse went there to kill protesters.
If we get facebook messages where he said "Yeah let's shoot them n***ers" then that's another story, but I haven't seen anything like that.

But those "protestors" actually burnt down numerous buildings, setting things on fire, causing double-digit millions in damage. These people are the bonafide terrorists. But I don't see you going after them. Your "justice" is selective.
Two wrongs don't make a right.
Usually people understand this around second grade. I see that's another milestone you missed.
