Causation is not something that can be proved. People threatened him because he had a rifle, why didn't everyone react then and not just a few guys.

This is bordering on the argument of a girl getting raped at a party at 3AM, arguing on the side that she shouldn't have been at said party at 3AM.
If it was a rape trial and there was video of the girl acting in a sexually aggressive manner that night, you could be sure that the male judges would have no problem admitting that evidence in court. Character assassinations against women in rape trials are normal unfortunately.

In this case, there is apparently evidence that shows Rittenhouse was acting in an aggressive manner yet the judge deemed it inadmissible. The judge seems curiously concerned about anything that might tarnish the accused's image to the jury. Yet videos of one of the deceased was allowed to be shown.
