17-Year-Old Kyle Rittenhouse Arrested for What Black Lives Matter Does Every Night; Charged With Intentional Murder

I think legally he's guilty, but I don't think the law is in effect any longer. The government is refusing to enforce it against insurrectionists, effectively making the State Sanctioned Terrorists, and citizens are forced to defend themselves and their own property.

I've been saying it for years: If the government will not protect the citizenry, then the citizenry will turn to vigilantism.

And citizens do not have the long hours of training that cops do.

You have to give them some leeway. If the state is effectively making terrorism and arson legal, then I say, shooting rioters without normal legal justification is now legal too.

He has been arrested. I say: Jury nullification. We'll start giving the state convictions they moment they start enforcing the laws, and not a moment before.

Play Thunderdome games, win Thunderdome prizes.

Update: JEM sends me to Shipwreckedcrew at Red State, who has video before the first shop -- antifa/BLM droogs were chasing this guy down. He turned and fired on them.

Self defense. Fuck you, assholes. Play human-hunting games, win Most Dangerous Game prizes.

See the video here, from 3:59:00 to 3:59:45. You can clearly see a group of bipedal wolves chasing this guy down.

Then he decides his life is in danger, turns, and kills an animal.

More from, um, BetaC#ck4Life:

Great video sync of multiple angles of first self defense shooting by #kylerittenhouse. You can clearly see the chase, molotov get thrown, and then the attempted theft of his rifle.

The white guy that kept calling everyone "n*gga" threw a molotov cocktail at him. He turned and punched a hole in his head without a scope.

Then he was chased down and one lucky MFer tried to kick him and escaped unharmed, Tony Hawk was shot perfectly in the heart, the kid cleared a jam, then (ahem) disarmed the "medic" that was trying to murder him with a pistol.

Stood up and stopped shooting because there were no more attackers, went and spoke to the police, and left.

92 Kyle Rittenhouse, 17, of Antioch, was charged Wednesday with first-degree intentional homicide in a shooting late Tuesday during a clash between anarchists/rioters and militia group members.

The militia members had gathered to protect a gas station from looters and vandals, and video shows police offer Rittenhouse water shortly before the shooting and thank him for being there.

101 The Daily Caller's Richie McGinniss interviewed the suspect just before the incident occurred.

The man, armed with a rifle standing outside a local business, told McGinniss that his "job is to protect this business," and that "if there's somebody hurt, I'm running into harms way."

102 The headshot fatality was chasing Kyle and threw a molotov cocktail at him. There's a video of the initial altercation leading up to the start of the incident.

The same DA that won't say if the the perp that started all this rioting to begin with had a knife or a gun in the back seat of his car and keeps playing the insulation without evidence word games.

All these Soros DAs need to be voted out of office. They refuse to charge real in your face criminals. Play these political games with evidence and semantics to pour gasoline on civil unrest. And drop the jack boot on anyone that goes vigilante due to the vacuum left by law enforcement abdicating the social contract to protect and serve.

I have no advice on availability of rounds. I would guess 9mm is more available than .45ACP these days but I still prefer a slow moving short sword over a fast moving short sword. Both rounds are basically the same size - its the speed that travel that makes the killing difference.

106 9 I think legally he's guilty, but I don't think the law is in effect any longer.

That's going to be dicey. Too many variables. And I don't know Wisconsin law.
Posted by: rickb223 at August 26, 2020 03:53 PM (lKDd/)

it's a fascinating case already from a legal point of view, because there's a lot of conflicting issues. (for anyone who wonders if I "want" to see him convicted or go free, I'm just fascinated by the issues, I don't have any stake in how it turns out)

The case in his favor: he was clearly attacked before he fired the gun, that sure looks like self defense.

The case against: Wisconsin's open carry law only applies to those 18 and older; he's 17. This would mean he was open carrying in violation of Wisconsin State Law, and any violation of the law usually negates all self defense claims in a shooting. So he may not be legally allowed to claim self defense, even though it was self defense.

This case could be with us for a while.

Posted by: Tom Servo at August 26, 2020 04:02 PM (Kpl3J)

107 i cannot imagine him being found guilty of FIRST DEGREE murder. It was clearly self-defense. They will probably convict him and ruin his life over some additional charges (firearms violations or whatnot), but first degree murder? Unless the jury is comprised of 12 communists, I can't see it.

Exactly. One of the early "justifications" (excuses) for the Minneapolis riots was the lack of indictment and arrest of Chauvin and company. Kenosha's just trying to stay ahead of the violence curve. It won't work, but you can't blame them for trying.

123 There is video and photographic footage of Kyle Rittenhouse, post-shooting, with his hands in the air in front of several police tactical vehicles. According to some eyewitnesses Kyle told the police what happened and was briefly detained before being released.

Kenosha Police Department took possession of his rifle.

The complaint (940.01 - 1st Degree Intentional Homicide) and application for a warrant to arrest Kyle was filed by Kenosha DA Michael D. Graveley. Kyle was arrested in Antioch, IL by the Antioch Police Department who are also charging him with 'fleeing from justice' (basically being a fugitive present in Illinois).

Kenosha DA is considering additional charges but the 940.01 is just to get him extradited back to Wisconsin quickly.

141 Here is what I pieced together from cellphone videos:

Earlier in the night interviewed:

https://twitter.com/ElijahSchaffer/status/1298567156842586113

He is the shooter of the head-shot guy:

https://twitter.com/JustVent6/status/1298650669444997121

He flees and someone throws a molotov cocktail (or something) at him as he flees:

https://twitter.com/CommiesLmao/status/1298567690542555136

He is pursued and is involved in the second and third shooting:

https://twitter.com/Julio_Rosas11/status/1298484633143775234
https://twitter.com/MrAndyNgo/status/1298504749633814529

So

- He was pepper sprayed and kept his cool (presumably).
- Someone shot a rioter in the head. Maybe the same shooter, I don't know.
- If the (pursued-future) shooter was that shooter, it's a separate incident. However, since he demonstrated not retaliating earlier, prosecution will have some difficulty establishing mens rea.
- He is/isn't that shooter.
- He's seen running and others pursuing. One of the pursuers throws a molotov cocktail at him, which breaks, but doesn't do the Hollywood fiery explosion - because they don't really do that.
- He is pursued and swarmed on the ground.
- One of the pursuers (the one wearing the "Paramedic" hat has a pistol drawn. This is visible in the video and confirmed in still picture after.
- Shooter is attacked and starts firing.
- Shooter sees someone with hands raised and holds fire.
- Shooter continues to move toward police presence with hands raised and surrenders to police.

Ah the left has an answer to that.


There is a video of someone walking in front of Kyle and stopping several times (to stop Kyle from going in whatever direction he is going). After several attempts he pushes the (wo)man? away.


So that justifies burning him to death with a molotov obviously


One other problem with the theory - it is bright daylight when the pushing happens....and the molotov attack happens at night so a lot of time passed.

169 Even if that was some kind of incendiary device, at the time of the shooting the dead guy had nothing in his hands. It was fists vs rifle. Seems that the shooter turned and shot in panic when he saw the guy right behind him. Why the fuck the short dude tried to come up behind the shooter, I have no clue.

Yeah, I REALLY don't understand "chase the guy with the rifle". Certainly, the best thing I can say about the young man with the rifle is that he did use it, and wasn't just carrying it around for show.

198 I missed the Floyd thread, but there's also a cardiologist today on twitter who debunks, step by scientific step, the "dangerous to athletes' hearts" report which was the main reason that the Big 10 cancelled football.
Apparently due to this guys public questions, the report has been redone, with the result that there is no more hazard to people who've had covid than to those who haven't.

There's like 10 different conclusions that (this guy says) didn't make any sense in the original report--impossible under the factors given.
Not a surprise, of course, and unfortunately probably won't change any minds. But a good example of fake science.

The funny part is, in prior years, if you didn't want the shot, you had to mask if seeing patients. (I don't see patients).

But now that we are forced into masks, suddenly we can't do that.

I know what they are doing - they have lamented for years that they want 100% compliance with seasonal flu shots, but could never get it. They never wanted to go the route of mandatory for fear of pissing staff off, but now they have the perfect "excuse," never mind the two are not related.

Was talking to someone overseas who is pretty neutral and we could not believe how fast the Governor bailed on his police force.

We thought he had knowledge of police cam footage, that is how fast and inflaming his Twitter reaction was.

And it was obvious USA Today specifically cut off the first three seconds where you could tell they were coming off the ground on the other side of the vehicle and all three cops drew their pistols immediately.

The Governor left Kenosha on their own pretty much and even last night they defended the government building s but not the people, their businesses or their homes.

That's very good, thanks to that I have a good feel for how the shooting went down. Watching it, I have to agree with the "not a molotov" group; that's just a bag of something with some weight, no ignition source, and it's too flimsy. But I don't think that matters for self defense; the guy is chasing him aggressively, that's assault, that would put him in enough fear to defend himself.

WHY the age of 17 could be a Big Deal: Because under age 18 does not have the right to open carry in Wisconsin, which would mean he was violating the law at the time, which would mean he would be legally barred from claiming self defense, even though it was self defense.

Exactly.

"I'm buying 10k rounds of .223 Hornady!" Yeah, for $1.50 a round or something. The very essence of Buying High Selling Low types lecturing us.

Buying a gun or ammo now is like buying stock 5 months after a company goes bankrupt.

I've got a few cases for my firearms, and I'm not touching that ammo unless it's to put someone down. Nor am I going to spend $2-5k on new rifles/ammo.

You should've had this shit already, but you got complacent. Tough shit.

Sad news: this shortage, at BEST, will last until March/April 2021 IF TRUMP WINS.

If Biden wins? You won't be able to buy PVC pipe and caps bc "patriots" will be burying their fucking guns in geocaches.

We're in for some LEAN motherfucking times.

I guess I don't care why he was there unless there is evidence he was there to destroy things and riot, and as far as I know, there isn't any.

He had a legal right to be where he was (even if there was a curfew, I think he is ok on that- i.e. not breaking and entering or something similar), and he attempted to retreat, he should either not be charged or have the charges dropped after the DA reviews the evidence. At worst, he should get off at trial either through a directed verdict or jury verdict.

There is video from the fist shooting. It shows a couple people chasing Kyle. The bald manlet chasing Kyle through a parking lot and throw something at him. Kyle keeps running but the guy catches up with him and Kyle turned and shot at what appears to be point blank range.

Everything from that video shows Kyle trying to get AWAY from the people chasing him before resorting to deadly force once they caught up with him.

Posted by: Nevyan at August 26, 2020 04:26 PM (a7HML)

348 For the Wisconsin shooting, I want to say this.

Note that EVERY person shot? The shooter shows clear restraint. The first guy charges him throwing things; the shooter WITHDRAWS. It isn't until the red shirt wearing guy charges AGAIN that shots are fired.

The skateboard guy GETS IN A FREE HIT on a guy on the ground before the guy shoots him.

The guy shot in the elbow? He is rushing the kid on the ground who has just downed his first attacker and *freezes.* The shooter? Covers him and doesn't shoot. The third guy? Decides to charge the guy who is covering him. Gets shot for it. Peels off -- no more shots fired. The shooter withdraws, because it is clear he can't remain. He tried that after the first shooting, and MORE people attacked him.

A lot of things were screwed up here; I wouldn't go out with a rifle because I don't want to shoot people. But, I also wouldn't charge a person with a rifle; hit a person who was down; charge someone who JUST showed me the mercy of not shooting me when I stopped being a threat.

I'm all for jury nullification, like ace said. I'm just letting you all know the law, and that self-defense is not likely to work here because he was certainly breaking some sort of law at the time (even though I think he was completely morally justified in putting those dogs down)

Posted by: imp at August 26, 2020 04:26 PM (H+rbo)

351 Wolfus - all the good natured kidding aside, you should pick a gun and round type you feel comfortable with (shop and shoot around) and then train, train, train. The shots to incapacitation ratio is about 2-3 for each of the 9, 40 and 45; 9's are generally thought to be easier to handle (a 380 is a short 9 round by the way) force wise so many believe you can be better on target; and, as such 9 rounds are harder to come by. I have all 4 types mentioned, I prefer the 40 and that's what I carry and train most with as a result.

If you were there, and your "over 21" son was there with you, I could understand.

But the kid was 17? Yeah, he got himself in a pickle alright.

On the previous, thread, I was roundly mocked for saying he will be tried in Illinois, because that's where he's from, not where the shooting happened.

I dunno. He should be tried in Wisconsin, but that's just it; everything is so twisted, he may be tried in Illinois.

406 Wolfus - all the good natured kidding aside, you should pick a gun and round type you feel comfortable with (shop and shoot around) and then train, train, train. The shots to incapacitation ratio is about 2-3 for each of the 9, 40 and 45; 9's are generally thought to be easier to handle (a 380 is a short 9 round by the way) force wise so many believe you can be better on target; and, as such 9 rounds are harder to come by. I have all 4 types mentioned, I prefer the 40 and that's what I carry and train most with as a result.

Thanks. It's been a few years but I remember my basic instruction with my .22 Magnum Ruger Single Six; I could hit what I aimed at the vast majority of the time. And an old buddy of mine, now sadly passed away, used to take me to his range frequently, and I shot his 9mm pistols quite a bit. (One guy there had a Luger, and I fired it. Wow, that gun felt perfect.)

But it has been a few years.

Kyle is innocent. He knew the mob could be violent. He was seen to be moving away from his attackers. They were chasing him, assaulting him, and the Antifa/BLM guy was running full speed to beat the crap out of him if not actually use Kyle's gun against him. A normal, reasonable person would assume violence was imminent and one's life would be in danger.

Absolutely vindicating video sequence.

Another aspect of the law, if you kill someone in the course of a crime, it's usually seen as what most people think of as first or second degree-level murder. It might have different names in different states, but it's considered as bad as felony murder. Hence the charge.

437 Same story as always - Cops v. Criminals is the usual game and is tolerated all day, but vigilantes are "competition." Law enforcement hates vigilantes because the very "need" for vigilantes shames the inadequacy of the law enforcement. Vigilantes aren't always roving mobs or bloodthirsty killers that "make their own law" - they show up to enforce law when law isn't being enforced.

Exhibit A.

Law enforcement can't have any other law-abiders "getting ideas", so they come down hard on the
vigilantes.

without reading it, I think it means simply that you cannot claim self defense when someone legitimately uses force against you.

THe paradigmatic situation would be a bank robbery, where a GUARD fires at you. Now, if he's firing at you, firing back at him WOULD be self defense, in most situations.

but not when you're committing a crime and the other actor has the legal right to attack you.

Antifa/BLM did not have a legal right to attack this guy. I also don't think he was committing a crime (though leave it to a leftwing DA to invent one).

469 @399, Sounds like the definition of "looking for trouble" to me. You have a 17 year old crossing a state line with a long gun to visit a riot in another city.

I carry a gun almost everywhere I go, and I seem to recall at some point concluding that it's better to stay away from a conflict or danger zone rather than get embroiled in it.

Regardless of whether he was being attacked, one questions the wisdom of his actions preceding the shooting.

The last thing we need is people going out of their way to get into situations where they need to shoot in self defense. It is not a good look at all for the 2A crowd.

As a wise man once said,"This business will get out of control! It will get out of control and we'll be lucky to live through it!"

474 453 @388: "Any thoughts on why someone would cross a state line to attend a riot, carrying a long gun?"

No one really thinks about that state line as a real, meaningful boundary. It's just traveling to a nearby town in the larger metro area. And I'm guessing 95% of seventeen year old militia LARPers never once think about the legal ramifications of transporting weapons across state lines.

In only really mattered for those few years when the drinking age in WI was 18 and IL's was 21. And it only mattered if your drinking establishment was on the wrong side of that boundary. Many young friendly-illinois-brothers still crossed over to drink anyway.

No, you have a good eye, LASue.

It might only apply to the duty to retreat (aka stand your ground). Most states (NC and FL for sure) say no self defense at all in teh commission of a crime. THis one is more nuanced, and we will have to see.

Right. Look at how the NYPD treated one lone vigilante in a train who fought back vs the thugs who prey on the train every day. A huge city wide man hunt to make sure he was caught and dealt with as viciously as possible.

its like when someone shoots a regular person vs a cop. OK yeah, that's bad, we'll get around to that case, I gotta stack of stuff, and we're understaffed, you understand? vs HOLD EVERYTHING, everyone comes home from vacation, we're all going after one case, no matter what, no time off until we catch him!!!!!

542 468 >>>420 Under Wis Stat 939.48, there is no self defense during "criminal activity" whatever that means.

https://docs.legis.wisconsin.gov/statutes/statutes/939/III/48

without reading it, I think it means simply that you cannot claim self defense when someone legitimately uses force against you."

I think you've got it backwards; it only concerns the accused's actions, not those of anyone else. I think all states have a version of this; it means "if you are engaged in any criminal activity, then you are not allowed to use a claim of self defense for anything that happens."

For example, this would mean that if someone is burglarizing a business, and the owner shows up and takes a shot at him, then he may NOT claim self defense for pulling out a gun and shooting back. He is barred from using that.

In this case, the shooter was in violation in only a technical way; he was only 17, and Wisconsin's Open Carry laws only authorize that for people who are 18 and older. But this technical violation may be enough to bar him from using any self defense claim, which is very bad for him.

No doubt morally right. That first altercation really looks to me like Baldo McShortstuff killed himself by grabbing the gun and popping a couple of rounds into his own head. If Kyle can claim self defense for that attack, he is definitely covered for the rest as he was fleeing for his life down a public street with a mob at his heels (literally)

I think he would have better sense than that, even if he didn't have parents hovering around.

Riots are a job for trained LE. If they can't do it, then the NG needs to be called in to assist.

The Ur-cause of all this is Scott Walker losing to Evers. Walker was the real deal, I always thought. He was my first choice in '16.

Even if true, which may be debateable, it was incredible overcharging to go with Murder One. Clearly they want to pressure this kid to plead to anything because they do NOT want to take this to trial.
At best it should be something like "involuntary manslaughter" if at that moment, having no "legal right" to self defense proper, one could say that anyone's pure survival instincts at that point would compel them to shoot.
I dont even want to go down that road, but even as a legal matter this is thuggery-by-prosecution.

Those who have to step up or think they must step up because the State is derelict are being forced, as citizens, into impossible situations. THE STATE is responsible for the extended violence as much as the mob. It has a duty, a pact, an obligation to protect the innocent. It is refusing.

And citizens are being victimized by both the mob/insurrection and the State.

I looked at a nice Taurus Spectrum pocket pistol this weekend, but I hear .380 is a tough round to locate. I'd hate to buy a gun I like but be unable to feed it.
----------------------
I have no advice on availability of rounds. I would guess 9mm is more available than .45ACP these days but I still prefer a slow moving short sword over a fast moving short sword. Both rounds are basically the same size - its the speed that travel that makes the killing difference.
Posted by: Puddin Head at August 26, 2020 04:01 PM (AWt0L)


You would be wrong.

Virtually no 9mm on the shelves, or available from the big mail order places online.

sgammo hasn't had 9mm for weeks now. In fact they say it comes in and gets sold so fast, that if you want some, click the "notify me" button and fill out your email addy.

Oh, and target FMJ is running 60 to 70 cents a round, in bulk. Hollow point 9mm? Most over a buck, with stuff like Speer Gold Dot going for a cool buck thirty a round, in bulk. But have not been listed in stock for well over a month now.

It's nuts. And if you are thinking of reloading, good luck getting primers and powder.



They are one of the largest bulk ammo stores in the country.

592 The lights made the plastic bag flare and look like it was on fire. The assailant had the bag with him earlier and it had a water bottle and some other items in it.

Regardless, the victim (shooter) was being chased by a mob including some with melee weapons. He was clearly in flight and retreat when he was caught. The victim (shooter) is probably on the hook for various, lesser weapons crimes due to his age, but this is far clearer a case of self defense than the Travon case (which was also self defense).

Imp, you've been on this campaign all damn day. Let them burn everything you own to the ground if you want. Nobody cares. But for the love of God, would you stop trying to convince everyone else to let their shit get burnt down right along with you ? No, of course you won't. You're on some type of one man peace mission - conveniently without anything of your own at risk.


Believe me, we get it. You've been exceptionally clear. You don't think anybody should ever being killed simply over the defense of property. Message. Received. Your concern is - Noted. Trust me - you're not on the "cross state lines to render help" list. You can let it go now. You're not going to get that call.

How about 17 year old "wanna be doctors" or "wanna be journalists?"

622 The guy shot in the elbow? He is rushing the kid on the ground who has just downed his first attacker and *freezes.* The shooter? Covers him and doesn't shoot. The third guy? Decides to charge the guy who is covering him. Gets shot for it. Peels off -- no more shots fired. The shooter withdraws, because it is clear he can't remain. He tried that after the first shooting, and MORE people attacked him.


********

The guy that got shot in the arm.

He actually had a pistol in his hand.

See CJ Halliburton video.

624 At best it should be something like "involuntary manslaughter" if at that moment, having no "legal right" to self defense proper, one could say that anyone's pure survival instincts at that point would compel them to shoot.
I dont even want to go down that road, but even as a legal matter this is thuggery-by-prosecution.

If they don't rein in this shit, it's going to get Biblical.

How many Ruby Ridges can the Left stomach? Because the Normals are NOT going to continue letting RevComs hit them, stab them, punch them and shoot them much longer.

Pretty soon it won't be dumbasses with ARs yelling at Commy Cocksuckers at gas stations.

It'll be guys who are comfy with 5-800 meter shots, looking at RevComs through a $2k glass, hidden away in a car trunk, roof peak, or tree canopy.

You'll have SNIPERS. And not cops. And they won't get caught, either.

Agree.

Have seen the video of first guy killed. Shot to right side of head from the left. Video shows Kyle R. facing him.


I have no idea, but bearing the damage his bullet did to the "medic's" elbow and bicep, I am thinking, possibly, someone ELSE shot the first guy? Hard to tell as guy was wearing a shirt on his head. Just saw a hole. Initially, a reporter goes over to apply first aid, looks at bare chest, says, "Where is hole?" and a girl says "His head." They then apply pressure, which does no good to a head wound vs chest. One would think the head would would be really gross, based on "medic's" wound, no? And tee shirt blown off and head basically gone?

So I question who shot him...altho Kyle runs by on video saying, "I just shot someone." Then the running of the stupids begins.

The other two shots were self defense.

Some say, via the all mighty twitter, that Kyle and "medic" were on "same team." Whatever the hell that was. Protecting BLM and businesses.

As some ask, where were parents when 17yr old left IL with a rifle? Maybe he told them he was going to Chaz's to play video games?

The fake "medic" think is so stupid. I guess if you buy a hat and carry a bandage you are qualified. Granted, he was in shock looking at the gaping hole in what was left of his arm, so a friendly independent reporter put some type of tourniquet on him. If he does not lose his forearm I will be amazed and marvel at modern science.

I also guess "first degree murder" was to quell the rioters. It was NOT premeditated. The kid did show restraint vs mass murdering people as he ran hither and yon. I suspect his charges will eventually be reduced.

That said, bring a gun to a riot and don't expect consequences.

632 This is what my lefty friends are spitting at me:

Per a good friend, a succinct summary of the events from Kenosha:
1. The Kenosha shooter suspect is a 17 year old IL resident.
2. To obtain a firearm in IL you must have a FOID card.
3. To obtain a FOID card in IL you have to be 18 years of age with parental consent, 21 without.
4. The suspect was therefore illegally possesing a fireaem and he moved it across state lines. Meaning all of his subsequent actions from here on out during the protest/riot last night are illegal.
5. What we know for certain: The shooter ran up to a protestor/potential rioter and shot them in the head.
6. There are claims that someone threw a molotov at the shooter -- these claims are unsubstantiated and video evidence is vague at best.
7. After shooting the first victim the shooter called someone (presumably the police but I don't have any official corroboration of this claim) and clealy states on video: "I just killed someone".
8. While making the phone call the shooter runs away, while running away the shooter is chased by people responding to him having just killed someone.
9. While fleeing the people chasing him, the shooter trips and falls, he then assumes a defensive stance and shoots the second victim in the stomach.
10. After shooting the second victim the shooter then fires and hits another person that was trying to disarm him in the forearm.
11. The suspect fled Wisconsin for Illinois to avoid charges. This is also illegal.
12. What I don't know at this point is how that first shooting happened, but since the kid was legally in the wrong possessing and transporting a firearm across state lines I cannot see how anybody can possibly defend him.
Philando Castille legally owned a firearm and the Right justified him being gunned down by the police because he had weed on him.

Me again-
Note that I corrected him on that last statement. The Philando Castille case was a travesty of justice and we were all outraged about it as 2A supporters.

636 There's video and photos of the 3rd guy he shot literally rushing him while holding a handgun, the second guy he shot was beating him with a skateboard (there was another guy he shot out and missed, who should have also been blown away, who ran and tried to throw a flying kick at his head)

People are saying he also was the kid who shot the white wanna be homeboy who was running around yelling "shoot me" (ironic) and the N Word repeatedly (racist), as they were chasing him and hurling bricks in plastic bags at him. Its harder to justify than the first as self defense, but still seems so.

The arrest i think has little to do with actually jailing him. Like the couple in St Louis, Soros DAs are going around arresting people they know have committed no crimes, because it's an attempt to have a chilling affect on the next guy trying to protect himself. They know their pasty weak street army couldn't defeat a flick of geese, so the DAs will arrest whoever they can that opposes them, so that their rioters can go around terrorising others without fear of reprisal.

Hopefully a 2nd term Trump DoJ starts prosecuting these assholes who are using their position as an attempt at overriding the second amendment through government coercion and fear tactics.

637 632, To begin with, lefty understanding of self defense laws is negligible other than attorneys practicing criminal law.

To begin with, as the incident occurs in Wisconsin, Wisconsin laws regarding firearm ownership apply. The feds can perhaps come after him for illegal interstate transfer of a firearm depending on how he obtained the firearm but this is not a civil law issue with admonitions that he who comes to court must have clean hands. Thus, the shooter can face charges in Wisconsin, and perhaps after the fact in Illinois or the feds regarding an alleged illegal transfer (if that is what occurred). Hunting laws often allow possession of longarms by minors when supervised by adults and some allow yutes to have them as gifts etc.

5-11 are facts where multiple sources are saying different things so that will get hashed out at the trial, not in the media or discussion groups.

In some states, self defense is allowed as a justification defense even when the initial acquisition or even retention of that firearm is illegal. The phrase is the lesser harms doctrine. Quite a bit of law exists regarding where a felon forbidden by federal or state law uses a firearm for self defense. Generally speaking, unless the actual use of the firearm was tied to illegal actions directly such as using a firearm to rob someone and then shooting them in "self defense". Drug deals self defense cases can go either way depending on the state.

Generally speaking, as in the Arberry case, a mob seeking someone is not legally empowered to render street justice nor is dispassioned legal analysis of the arrest powers of a lawless mob, Citizen's arrest laws are a murky area at best and absent actual case research on Westlaw, best left to professionals in the field.

So, the person can face charges aside from the murder rap from other state and federal authorities. But, the justification for self defense generally does not require "clean hands" in order to claim self defense. If the guy was part of a riot versus simply watching with a firearm are two different things in most jurisdictions.

Self defense is an odd area of the law and very dependent on state variations in caselaw, jury instructions, and prosecutions. It is not an area where the forums online, the media, nor even most legal professionals are qualified to render any kind of opinions.

Basically one is admitting that they did an unlawful thing but either affirmatively arguing or justifying what they did rested on a real fear of death and/ or serious injury. The existence of a mob rioting and its preceding behavior along with all other facts known at the time to the shooter and whether the shooter's perceptions were "reasonable" will be left to a judge and jury.

638 I can't see why anyone that is being attacked by a vicious, murderous mob would have any right to try and defend themself to survive. Only leftist with democrat government backing and support have the right to attack or defend, as they have established that right already in numerous cases, right ? If Democrats had been successful to disarming all civilians in America as the have striven greatly to do. The lockstepping socialist democrat Nazis would have been far more aggressive by now, and a crystal nicht ALREADY PERFORMED.
BUT DON'T WORRY THESE MODERN DAY NAZIS locksteppers HAVEN'T GIVIN UP YET. Recognize the tactics of last centuries Germany ?
