I was wondering about that one since that would be absofuckinglutely unconstitutional, but at this point, I'm not putting anything past this government.

I misspoke here, he could legally possess the firearm in Illinois likely, as long as his guardian signed off on his FOID card

But not in WI, and he should still cop the charge there.

I'd actually fight that one since there might be a legal loophole. Wisconsin does accept Illinois FOID cards. Maybe they have a stipulation which rejects it for persons under the age of 18, but I haven't found it yet.

People. In the last 16 hours we've tried and acquitted him, tried and convicted him, and all the other possibilities, and we know none of the details. Example: could be that his family owns the place he was guarding, and the weapon was kept on the premises. That's one possibility, and there are many others. Prosecutors invariably overcharge, so the charge means nothing. I do not know if Wisconsin is a grand jury state, but if it is, the grand jury could hand up no true bill and he's off the hook. There's just a whole fucking lot that none of us knows, nor will we until it exists to be known.

I played a lot of JRPGs when I was a kid, and my dream job was to put on a suit of armor, grab a sword, and slay monsters for the village. Protect the innocent, cleanse the world of evil, get paid for it.

Now that I'm an adult, my dream job is basically the same, but the monsters are human.

Disclaimer: I'd never just go out and slaughter a bunch of criminals unless it were legal. I hate violent criminals above all else in this world. I'm not about to become one.

Ah, I feel you. I'll risk the dumb ratings for oversharing again, but I'm in much the same boat. There's this huge part of me that wants to be like a real life Dexter. I want to hunt down people who are bad and kill them, usually in terrible ways. I spend an awful lot of time and energy planning my vigilante life if it comes to it. Thankfully, we had police so I understood that if I went and hunted monsters, I would be regarded as a monster and punished accordingly. As I had things in life I didn't want to lose, I controlled and suppressed those urges.

These riots and how unfairly people have suffered has ignited those embers into a bonfire I fear losing control over. If it came down to it though, I'm still fighting tooth and nail to the end lest I lose everything. If people nearby wanted to band together to protect the innocent when the cops completely give up enforcing any order, I'd do my part. I don't want to be a solo martyr, but uniting to fight the dying of the light is where I would step up.

Unless the entire jury is businessowners who had their livelihoods destroyed, the only way I can see the kid going free is if this continues and more normal people have to shoot to defend themselves or property. Because at that point people really will feel that if the government isn't going to protect me and my things, I need to fight back.

pure retardation
antagonizing the cops wont get you anywhere and smearing/hating the cops just plays into the marxists' hands

the real lesson to learn from Kenosha Kyle is that if you're going to put commies in the ground, you better not do it out in plain sight while getting your face recorded by a million phones.
if rittenhouse had been in proper camo (entire body and face covered, no identifying information visible on his person) and successfully made an exit from the city without getting stopped by police or identified by someone or something, then he'd have had a good chance to never get caught.

No, but things just escalated an uncomfortable amount. If things keep somehow escalating like this for the rest of the year, then you get to start looking at some uncomfortable odds at that actually happening in some way.

There's also lots of recent politically charged self defense cases where the jury acquitted or the DA dropped the charges or never even brought them. Alongside those lots of cases where arguing self defense failed. The courts and juries aren't some monothilic system churning out results only one side likes nearly all the time. I think he has a strong case to get out of everything except perhaps taking a gun over state lines if his lawyer isnt a complete idiot or weakling. The gun over state lines is kinda weak in a non legal sense if they bring that against him because he lives basically right on the border but he did cross that border with a gun. Defense lawyers commonly make arguments to juries that aren't strict legalisms with success though.

If this guy's parents are absolutely loaded and can afford a few hundred thousand in legal expenses and PR, maybe he can make a deal to take a light plea, perhaps even avoid conviction entirely if he takes it to trial.

The absolute 100% last thing Kyle should do is to take any kind of plea bargain at all. If the prosecution are serious they'll do everything they can to make him take one, scare him into taking one. But he must not. He did nothing wrong and should not say that he did.

Nah, 'dumb' would be a founding stock American walking around a riot that's being filmed from hundreds of angles, including likely from overhead by hostile police and ANG, and thinking that he had the right to defend himself if attacked just because that's what the law books still officially say.

Look, I know that's how you think it should be, morally. But he isn't obliged to do more time just because you still think 'THIS IS AMERICA'. I suspect Scarsella regrets not taking a plea every day.
