Yeah, ok. All the other gun toters didn't shoot anyone. Somehow it was just poor Kyle who was attacked by multiple people. Got it.

Correct. It was. Rosenbaum had already threatened that he would kill him and Ryan Balch if he caught either of them alone, according to Balch's testimony. The street level footage, drone footage and FBI footage showed that Rittenhouse turned up at 63rd street, and was ambushed by him immediately.
Ask yourself why it was only Kyle. Why only Kyle? Why not the others with guns?
One theory is that Rosenbaum may have mistakenly identified Rittenhouse as this similarly dressed and equipped individual, who Rosenbaum had tried to fight at the gas station earlier and had to be restrained.
Opportunity. None of the others got caught alone like Rittenhouse did. It was just one of those fateful encounters. Bad luck, even. Incidentally, Rosenbaum had already tried to fight the armed people at the gas station when they extinguished his dumpster fire that he was pushing toward it.
I imagine Rosenbaum made good on his threat when he caught Rittenhouse alone. "If I catch any of you guys alone tonight I'm going to f-cking kill you." People fall victim in crowds all the time. Rosenbaum was a violent career pedo who was just released from a mental health facility that day.
