So, I support the kid and don't think anyone who died that night will be missed. I actually have laughed multiple times today.
That said, he's fucked and here's why.
He will plea out most likely or get the full sentence they can do. Regardless he will.be in jail for years. Again, I don't agree with it and laughed long and hard at the "paramedics" doing tourniquets on limbs for thoracic trauma.
Good luck Kyle. You will need it. Nice shooting under pressure though.
Write down his cell number before the boog hits, we'll need good shooters like him.
Minors are legally able to own and possess long guns, including rifles and shotguns. There is no minimum age for that, only for handguns. You cannot purchase from a licensed dealer, but you are legally allowed to own and possess them.
Thanks man. I wasn't aware of that as I was always a handgun kid and figured it was always verboten. Good to know.
I feel you, I was super competitive into bullseye pistol matches through middle and high school so I understand the struggle there. At least there are exemptions for possession if you are traveling to/from or actively using it for sporting purposes, but the whole thing is bullshit in the first place. I also did a lot of trap/skeet shooting and that was 10x easier since the restrictions on possession shotguns were basically zero for me.
A great many years ago I bought a sig P226 and my dad took possession of it. I taught him gun safety and continue to teach him his to run it as I gave it to him many years back. Always had access to it and ammo and the Colt and Holy and Blessed HK USP I bought after. Fucked around with long guns until I found love with Benelli. And the AR15. Now I'm old and I have everything but a fine ass 7.62 battle rifle.
I guess what I'm trying to say is I love guns and I'm drunk.
Hope you get drunk too.

If youre 17 is it that you cant buy a rifle or just cant own one all together? If he cant own one all together the he is fucked.
They can make the push that he was an aggitator, but him being there isnt illegal and wanting to protest in his way is certainly legal. (Thats if him having that gun was legal). He has the same right to be there as anyone else
If the gun is illegal, idk what his sentencing will look like. If the gun is legal, he should walk no matter what bullshit they try to throw at him
I don't think you're looking at this like a douchebag prosecutor. And my understanding is that a minor isn't usually legal to have access to a firearm without some adult supervision.
I don't personally give a wet shit that he killed those people. It was really, really funny. He's fucked though. They won'tet him off with less than some manslaughter and prison.
I would bet heavily they can't find a Wisconsin jury willing to unanimously convict him of first degree homicide. All they need is one juror who isn't part of the left-cult. Everyone else by now understands the politically-motivated horse shit taking place.
They might get him on some random lesser charge, but they can't charge him with first degree homicide and manslaughter for the same killing.
He'll plea out to manslaughter if they offer and convince him of how fucked he is. They get a 5-10yr and a political victory. He gets to dodge longer time.
I don't have confidence in a jury but then again I am cynical af.
This kid needs one hell of a lawyer and to make the best self defense case possible. He's a political symbol now and that could work for or against him.
Either way, 5.56 is proven yet again to be an effective cure for communism and persons convicted of rape against a minor.
Prosecutor and Jury. Playing the context of how TF he got there will be the most important, and it doesn't look good.
Kids probably fucked.
in my state you can legally own a long arm at 16.
