He was there to help assist without medical equipment or supplies. Also, he was there to clean graffiti also without cleaning supplies. All he ended up taking with him was an automatic people killer. So I guess he was going to shoot the injured to put them out of their misery and he was also going to shoot the graffiti off the buildings?????? (just asking)

The judge won't even let him question why Rittenhouse was there. Only the defense's version of that is allowed to be heard.

Just sickening, they're not even allowed to say that Rittenhouse was there to "protect" property. The jury can only go by the only thing that the judge allowed in, that Rittenhouse was there to help with first aid. Give me a break.

4. During the testimony yesterday, the prosecutor did indeed question him about why he was there.

He stuck with his story of protecting “his community” and being a medic.

Maybe you missed that part?

5. He had a gun which medics DO NOT carry, and he had no medical supplies, which medics DO carry.

He’s was there to kill people and that’s what he did.
His little made for tv meltdown yesterday reminded me of my three year old when he couldn’t have ice cream. What the hell was that?
