Kyle Rittenhouse attorneys argue Wisconsin hunting laws allowed him to carry the gun he used to kill two people and injure a third

With less than a month before Kyle Rittenhouse’s murder trial, his attorneys attempted to dismiss the gun charge against him Tuesday by arguing Wisconsin’s hunting laws allowed the teen to carry an assault rifle on the night he fatally shot two people and injured a third in downtown Kenosha.

Under state statute, there are specific training and supervision requirements for anyone 16 years or younger to possess a gun while hunting. It does not detail restrictions for anyone older than that.

2nd Amendment says “arms” period.
Hunting irrelevant.

If they play the tape and the jury is unbiased, they will see for themselves that it was self defense.

“If they play the tape and the jury is unbiased, they will see for themselves that it was self defense.”

Every shot he made was justifiable. When the last perp took pause and stopped advancing, Kyle moved his aim away. At that point the perp lunged, with a firearm in-hand. Pop! Right through your bicep idiot! Disarmed you might say.

No way would I find Kyle guilty. of a damned thing.

YOU’RE ABSOLUTELY CORRECT...UNFORTUNATELY.

UNDER PRESIDENT TRUMP HE WOULD BE FOUND NOT GUILTY OR BE PARDONED.

UNDER THE SOROS/DEMOCRAT ADMINISTRATION HE’S DONE FOR, ALTHOUGH HE COMMUTED NO CRIME WHATSOEVER.

The article continues ...

Rittenhouse, who lived in far north suburban Chicago, was 17 when he took it upon himself to patrol the lakefront city with an AR-15-style rifle.

Yes, he was 17 at the time. No, he did not "take it upon himself to patrol" Kenosha. He was asked to by a friend. And Antioch is as far north as you can go in Illinois and not be in Wisconsin. It's about a 20 minute drive to Kenosha.

Juries decide. It takes just one for a mistrial, does it not?
