    The “she deserved it” analogy is super tortured, and not analogous at all. Like I already said, he was violating curfew to LARP as a combat medic. And if you can’t see how adding a rifle into the mix escalated the scenario, then there’s no getting through to you, clearly.

      Tbf everyone there was violating curfew. The only one who arguably had a legitimate reason was Rosenbaum, being let out of a mental facility after threatening suicide for being caught touching his GF’s underage son, because the hospital decided to discharge him right into an active riot. One could also argue that none of this would have happened without that, and also none of this would have happened if Rosenbaum hadn’t tried to kill anyone, and that this wouldn’t have happened had the police not shot Jacob Blake for kidnapping kids while armed with a knife, and that this would never have happened had Blake simply not kidnapped any kids or had a knife.

      We could play this game all day, frankly. I lean more towards “Rosenbaum shouldn’t have attacked him screaming I’m going to fucking kill you and this never would have happened,” personally.
