First of all, he was not attacked for being armed. Secondly, it is a post hoc fallacy to say that it wouldn’t have happened if he had not been there because it wouldn’t have happened if Rosenbaum hadn’t been there either.
While it’s true it wouldn’t have happened had he not been there, it’s also true that his being there was not the cause.
Wrong.
I never said it would not have happened if he had not been there.
I said that it was the deliberate intimidating presence of the rifle that caused the violence.
And your argument is obviously false because Rittenhouse did not just shoot Rosenbaum, but 3 people.
So obviously many were upset to see him carrying the rifle, and he likely carried the rifle deliberately to get as many people upset as possible.
