Anyone want to understand the failings of money bail? Look no further: strong evidence of a white shooter motivated by racial bias committing a double murder with an assault rifle. But wealth sets him free.https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2020/11/20/kyle-rittenhouse-accused-kenosha-shooter-released-2-million-bail/6363593002/ …
Important context you might have inadvertently omitted: at the moment the bag was thrown, Rittenhouse was running away from a mob that was chasing and threatening him. And before he fired any shots, someone fired a gun behind him and his first attacker tried to grab his rifle.

I have multiple convos going on about this. The shot I know will play a role. How grabbing the gun is viewed depends. Since he is dead he can't testify but if he had been threatened to be shot he may have been, as has been reported, trying to disarm him.

My thoughts are on this is that most people on either side are basing their view on their implicit bias rather than the understanding that this isn't a cut and dry case in either direction from a legal standpoint. Could also be acquitted on some changes and guilty on others.
