Specifically this bit right here:

Richie would later tell me that he saw what prompted the first shooting. A verbal fight escalated as the victim tried grabbing the alleged shooter’s rifle – twice. The second time, Richie told me, the victim came very close to getting his hand on the man’s gun, trying to grab it away from him. He may have actually made contact, but it’s unclear amid the mayhem. That’s when the shooter fired.

If Joseph Rosenbaum, the bald 'shoot me nigga' pedo in the red shirt, hadn't escalated a verbal argument by lunging for Rittenhouse's gun and then chasing him when he tried to leave, he and Anthony Huber would still be alive today, to the misfortune of any children and girlfriends around them respectively. Everything that followed - Rosenbaum's own death, then the mob pursuing Rittenhouse until he killed Huber and wounded Gaige Grosskreutz - can now be laid at the feet of his decision to try grabbing for Rittenhouse's gun.

Edit: I've been enlightened to the existence of the charging papers, which include a fuller account from the witness in this article (Richie McGinniss) - starts at page 3. Still fully exonerating, turns out that before the chase Rosenbaum confronted Rittenhouse for no readily apparent reason while the latter was just walking on a sidewalk and wouldn't back off, even after Rittenhouse tried to sidestep out of the way.

I agree with the general concept that Rosenbaum is the idiot who sowed the seeds of this mess but I don't like the wording that says Huber and Grosskreutz getting shot can be laid at his feet. They still wouldn't have been shot if they hadn't attacked someone based on hearsay and mob hysteria, so I think they get to take responsibility for the consequences of their own risky choices themselves.

Grabbing someone's gun during a tense moment is not something reasonable to do and is normal to be perceived as an attack.

He probably thought he could get away with it. Nobody else was stopping them, especially not the police.

The easiest way to keep the gun you've seized being to turn it upon the owner, agreed.

He probably fantasized it as a little boys penis.

Call him a Mormon and some commune in Idaho will give him five wives and a hidden bunker. Not a bad life, other than the sobriety.

IMO the biggest take away from this is to not get separated from your group. The reason Kyle was targeted was because he was isolated. These antifa terrorists are like hyenas, they only pick off those that are isolated and vulnerable. When met with equal force or numbers they withdraw or crumble.

Check out the latest Donut Operator video for the source but the above article doesn't seem to mention the actual trigger.

Protestors had lit a dumpster on fire and were about to push it at police. Kyle put it out with an extinguisher causing the mob led by Rosenbaum to target him. The more information that comes out the better one side looks and the worse the other.
