Kyle Rittenhouse: Are People under the age of 18 Forbidden from Open Carry in WI?

U.S.A. –-(AmmoLand.com)- On 25 August 2020, Kyle Rittenhouse was chased and attacked by multiple assailants while attempting to escape them. He shot and killed two of the attackers. He wounded a third, Gaige Grosskruetz, as Grosskruetz lunged at him at close range with a loaded semi-auto handgun Grosskruetz had drawn from concealment.

The two white men Rittenhouse killed were violent felons with long criminal histories.

Rittenhouse immediately attempted to turn himself into the police but in the chaos and confusion of the ongoing riot was told to go home instead.

He turned himself in the next day in his hometown in Illinois, 15 miles from the shooting scene in Kenosha.

The prosecutors in Kenosha have ignored all the video evidence in order to charge Kyle Rittenhouse with the most significant crimes they can imply. He is charged with intentional homicide, and faces life in prison if convicted. The prosecutor is not content with these acts of political theater. Four months after the fact, Kyle has been charged with violating the curfew on 25 August 2020.

From wisn.com:

Prosecutors have charged a 17-year-old Illinois teen accused of shooting three people during a protest in Kenosha this summer with violating the curfew that night.

Kyle Rittenhouse was charged in August with multiple counts, including reckless and intentional homicide, endangerment and being a minor in possession of a firearm.

Prosecutors added violating curfew the night of the shootings to the list of charges on Monday.

The offense is a civil citation punishable by forfeiture.

It seems a weird thing to add to the much more serious charges.

Especially as it happened over four months ago.

This appears to be a textbook case of selective and vindictive prosecution after all the other people violating curfew who were not arrested, let alone prosecuted.

[DownInFlames]

And those who attacked him are not charged with the same violation.

Well, two of them won’t be, for sure!

The action against Kyle Rittenhouse, on the street and in the court house, are a microcosm of what is happening to this great country.

That is kind of kicking him when he’s down. Charging him with major felonies isn’t enough, they have to hit him with a misdemeanor too?

[ontap]

He should be at the White house getting medal for public service!!!

[PIF]

maybe a plea deal to the curfew and drop the other charges?

[The Duke]

I've decided not to put Gaige Grosskruetz on the naughty list. I would say he's already paid a pretty high price already for his transgressions.

He's a nasty piece of work, though.

[ridesthemiles]

EXACTLY how many protesters have been charged with curfew violations-—ANYWHERE?????
