Your opinion is not supported by much of anything realistic. This young, inexperienced kid needs to be taught a valuable lesson so that he does not make the same mistake twice because the next time he may be on the wrong end of a bullet. He was wrong, and you are being driven by your opposition to the violent protesters, which is understandable. I am also opposed to their violent behavior.Possibly, the illegal possession of a firearm. Possibly.
Rittenhouses's claim of self-defense is FAR more powerful than you understand.
Under WI law, the prosecutor has to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that Rittenhouse did NOT have a reasonable fear for his life, and/or his act of shooting the people he shot was NOT an act of self-defense, under WI law.
You have -no- hope of making a sound argumeht for either.

Any rational, reasoned person would support someone who does so.
Why don't you?
It was, however perfectly within his rights to shoot people chasing him with the intent to cause harm
