The best part is these idiots use a few arguments that they think justifies this mobs behavior:

• "He was carrying the gun illegally! So it was murder!"
  Having an illegal firearm does not mean you can't use it to defend yourself. It just means you were carrying a gun illegally. They always fail to mention that the 'medic' was carrying illegally as well. The medics friend is also on record saying that the medic wished he had killed him immediately.

• "He was a minor! The 'protestors' were trying to disarm him because he was underage!"
  On what legal authority do they have to walk up to a stranger and attempt to disarm him? Furthermore, no one knew he was a minor until after the shooting. Rendering the argument pointless.

• "He went there to purposefully incite violence and harm people!"
  He's on video mentioning his support for BLM and helping people with medical care. When confronted by the angry mob he attempted to remove himself to deescalate the situation and was still pursued.

• "The first guy wasn't a pedo, he was just trying to disarm the kid because he shouldn't have a gun! That screenshot is just fake! If you go look it up you can't find it!"
  Except, as mentioned, there's no way he would know his age. Furthermore, yes, he is a pedo. If you die you get removed from the registry -- because you're fucking dead. Oh, and I did the work for them, here's this:

• "He threw a water bottle in a bag, not a molotov! You're saying he felt threatened because of that?"
  He's on video aggressively antagonizing the kid earlier. He threw the water bottle while pursuing him. This happened several moments before the shooting; no shots were fired because of this act. The man continued to pursue and eventually bull-rushed him grabbing for his gun. A reporter for the Daily Caller, Richard McGinnis, was present and corroborates this. He mentioned afterward that Rosenbaum had even gotten close enough that he touched the gun. Rittenhouse had every reason to believe he was in danger.

I'm sure I'm missing more, but not many are going to read this anyway, so I'll leave it here. Everything we've seen, and all the facts that we know, very clearly point to the case being self-defense. You have to do some serious mental gymnastics to twist the situation otherwise.
 
Edit: To give everyone a small update, it seems that Rosenbaum didn't die from a gunshot wound to the head as previously believed. Meaning that those who've said that Kyle "had enough time to aim for the head!"
From the Criminal Complaint:

"Dr. Kelley of the Milwaukee Medical Examiner’s Office conducted an autopsy on Joseph Rosenbaum. Dr. Kelley indicated that Rosenbaum had a gunshot wound to the right groin which fractured his pelvis, a gunshot wound to the back which perforated his right lung and liver, a gunshot wound to the left hand, a superficial gunshot wound to his lateral left thigh, and a graze gunshot wound to the right side of his forehead."

Doesn't fit the narrative.
 
Edit 2: Finally found Richard McGinnis's description of events from his perspective in the Criminal Complaint:

"McGinnis described the point where the defendant had reached the car. McGinnis described that the defendant had the gun in a low ready position. Meaning that he had the gun raised but pointed downward. The butt of the gun would have been at an angle downwards from the shoulder. McGinnis stated that the defendant brought the gun up. McGinnis stated that he stepped back and he thinks the defendant fired 3 rounds in rapid succession. McGinnis said when the first round went off, he thought it hit the pavement. McGinnis felt something on his leg and his first thought was wondering whether he had gotten shot. McGinnis was behind and slightly to the right of Rosenbaum, in the line of fire, when the defendant shot.
McGinnis stated that the first round went into the ground and when the second shot went off, the defendant actually had the gun aimed at Rosenbaum. McGinnis stated he did not hear the two exchange any words. McGinnis said that the unarmed guy (Rosenbaum) was trying to get the defendant’s gun. McGinnis demonstrated by extending both of his hands in a quick grabbing motion and did that as a visual on how Rosenbaum tried to reach for the defendant’s gun.
Detective Cepress indicates that he asked McGinnis if Rosenbaum had his hands on the gun when the defendant shot. McGinnis said that he definitely made a motion that he was trying to grab the barrel of the gun. McGinnis stated that the defendant pulled it away and then raised it. McGinnis stated that right as they came together, the defendant fired. McGinnis said that when Rosenbaum was shot, he had leaned in (towards the defendant).
McGinnis stated that after the defendant shot he ran back towards the hospital towards the middle of the road. McGinnis stayed and turned his attention to Rosenbaum. McGinnis stated that he then heard other shots really soon after."
