What? Grosskreutz admitted that the one frame of the video showen in the court room looked like he was pointing his weapon at Rittenhouse. It was a single word response (yes) to the frame of the defense attorney's question. He did not admit to pointing his weapon, and actually stated he was not intentionally pointing his weapon at Rittenhouse. He had his gun in his right hand and his cellphone in his left hand. Grosskreutz was a trained shooter and knew how to handle his weapon. If he had drawn down and meant business, he would have had both hands on the weapon and in a three point stance, just as he was trained. This is consistent with his claim that he had no intention of using his weapon and he only had it drawn for availability.
