Just like in the Springfield incident where the fire fighter disarmed the man. The armed man didn't wave it around or do anything to prompt the action to disarm him, but his presence in public at that particular time was seen as provocative enough to take action, being in the wake of the El Paso shooting.

This is just my personal opinion, but I think the people around Rittenhouse were justified in feeling threatened by his presence.
