Kyle Rittenhouse, whether or not you believe his intentions right or wrong, was there because local business owners felt the police were NOT doing their jobs, and asked for help during the BLM Riots.
This current case involved police/ice DOING their jobs, so what was that guy doing there with a loaded weapon?
The context is entirely different.
And LOL on the "crossing state lines".......as if it means anything.
how is him being there to protect businesses- does he even have that ability? differ from going somewhere to protest, which is protected under 1a. One went out of state, meaning he travelled to put himself in that situation vs a guy that lives there and for all we know works right there (I haven't seen any back story). It was in direct relation to your point about not putting yourself in situations like that, rittenhouse went fully out of his way to put himself in a dangerous situation, while we have no idea what this guys intention was. Rittenhouse went to defend (as per you, which is a high risk situation) vs this guy protesting (was he even protesting? or just there at the wrong time), srs question as to what the actual facts are. Peaceful protest is not high risk by the definition.
Of course the context is different, it by definition could never be the same, temporally or spatially, but thats a given with any analogy or relativism, its not an argument against the use of this argument.
