Retired special ed teacher
That's a misdemeanor, and the rifle in question was owned by a Wisconsin resident, according to a defense attorney.

I'm betting the only charge that will stand is the misdemeanor possession of a firearm by someone under age.
In the case of Grosskreutz, his having a pistol and aiming it at Rittenhouse clearly is a case of self-defense. Try getting a jury to vote otherwise. Huber attacked Rittenhouse unilaterally with a skateboard, one of several people that attacked him at that point. Huber struggled with Rittenhouse for his weapon too. Again, it's going to be hard to get a jury to buy murder in that case.
Rosenbaum is more problematic. The DA might, might, be able to present a case there but even that one will be weak seeing as how Rosenbaum chased Rittenhouse, physically assaulted him at least once, was in the known commission of felonies (arson), and cornered Rittenhouse by that gas station. That's going to be a real stretch to prove Rittenhouse intended to unilaterally, and without a valid reason murdered Rosenbaum.
Is it?
How much, Chief?
It's up the courts. I'm with you on the murder charges but not so confident on the other ones. There's also the possibility of Illinois and Federal charges depending upon the facts of the case.

Are you really that dipshit Truth Detector, Chief?
CorrectI mean that you need a lot of patience...if you're waiting for a leftist to post evidence.
But I can see how being a special ed teacher prepared you for dealing with them.
Homonyms are fun
It is, and if the defense can prove the weapon in question never crossed state lines, that charge will not stick.
Any person under 18 years of age who possesses or goes armed with a dangerous weapon is guilty of a Class A misdemeanor.

The owner of the rifle might be in trouble, though.
No, just to himself.
No, it is absurd to think you could erupt with anything other than lie filled lunacy thinking it doesn't make you look stupid and pathetic.
Are you calling Legion a liar and a lunatic? He clearly posted this...
Under Wisconsin statutes that say anyone under 18 who "goes armed" with any deadly weapon is guilty of a Class A misdemeanor. Under that statute Rittenhouse, 17, was not old enough to legally carry the assault-style rifle he had.
But John Monroe, a lawyer who specializes in gun rights cases, believes an exception for rifles and shotguns, intended to allow people age 16 and 17 to hunt, could apply.
It is?
That's a quote from a newspaper report, which I linked to in that post. "John Monroe, a lawyer who specializes in gun rights cases", said it. I didn't.
You either are too stupid to realize that, or dishonest enough to claim that I said it.
Maybe you're both.
Isn't it?
