Here's the first shooting. The pedo is chasing him and when Rittenhouse hits a dead end he turns around and has no choice.

This is some context for the first shooting. It's clear that Rittenhouse is not the aggressor at any point up until the actual shooting starts at 2:33. This has multiple video sources all synced. I would say it's clear that it was self-defense since he's running away and being chased. He's fleeing through a parking lot at 2:28 with a guy chasing about 10 feet back. The chaser throws something at him at 2:30. The chaser follows him behind a car where there's not a great camera angle. First shot at 2:33 followed by several more from 2:35 to 2:39.

The next two shooting are well recorded and it's clear that rioters are chasing him down and assaulting him. You can see at 0:15 he's on the ground and several rioters are in hot pursuit. The first shot misses a guy who is right on top of him at 0:17. That guy seems to think better of the confrontation and scampers off. At 0:18 another one is on top of him, takes a bullet, and quickly collapses. At 0:19 yet another is approaching very close and he's holding a handgun. Rittenhouse points the rifle at him and he appears to be having second thoughts before making a second attempt to rush him and getting his arm shot at 0:22. These were both Darwin awards style shootings where morons thought physically attacking a guy holding an AR was the thing to do.

Also, it's been known for over a year that he didn't bring the gun to Kenosha from Illinois. Anyone who still thinks that and has an opinion on this case is ridiculous. Limiting yourself to fake news leaves you ignorant.
