I think you misunderstood my point about Aryans. The Aryan Nation would have sucked Rittenhouse into their world if he had gone to prison. They control the white population of most prisons. I imagine most guys get left alone if they keep their head down and mind their own business, but he's not a "most guys" type of guy, whether he liked it or not. His publicity would have been an invitation to their bringing him into their world.

So that is one aspect of the outcome we can be grateful for.

We can't possibly agree on the rest of this so there's no point to discussing other than saying I agree to disagree.

I don't know why adult men were running up and down doing what they were doing. Why do they ever? We can't ask two of them. They're dead.

As for the reasons Rittenhouse got clobbered by a skateboard - we don't really have many details on the why other than Rittenhouse's testimony. Fact is, he was armed and dangerous. He was carrying an AR-15 into a situation that was clearly full of danger.

He was 17.

And two people are dead because of it.

There is nothing to cheer here.
