That’s fair.

They took off and through their lawyer alerted authorities they fled for their safety.

That home could have burned to the ground with them in it.

Can you imagine if your child did this? Took one of your guns and did this?

I’m just not into this parental prosecution until I see more of a negligent link. Guns in the house? NO.

We all have them under the couch, by the door, in the nightstand. Without easy access, self-defense guns are rendered meaningless.

If the parents were blindsided, this is prosecutorial overreach.

Need to see more. Parents should hire Rittenhouse’s defense team.

While it might be prosecutorial overreach, the parents cannot say they were ‘blindsided’. The morning of the shooting the school confronted them with their kid’s notes and still refused to take him home with them.

Agree that there’s unanswered questions here. However, they should have gone straight to the police station if they feared for their lives.

So far I think they were in total panic and they cracked. I do agree that merely owning firearms is not something they should be charged for. I don’t see that as a reasonable construction of the case.

But they screwed up big time by running. I think its completely believable that they did so over threats and in panic, but this was a huge mistake.

The prosecutor is a former judge, with her very own Wiki page.

The black racist who hated Trump supporters and mowed down and killed white kids in a Christmas parade -- how much is his bail?
