Should he be charged for illegally having a firearm?Who are you talking about? Kid or protestor. Also, hate that you made me read but I couldnt find anything on the protesters shot. So that's my point. If the facts are not yet in evidence we are just speculating. I'm not going to get into property vs. Lives. Not the issue here. Only not the issue because was dumb and underage. If this had been an adult in possession of a weapon legally I'm not sure how things go down. --- I know, indeed, the evil of that I purpose; but my inclination gets the better of my judgment. - Euripides ...

Who are you talking about? Kid or protestor.There is information on all 3 protesters that were shot. All parties had criminal backgrounds. Not saying it's relevant or anything, but I do believe the felon with the handgun will be charged. That's why I responded to your post, because I know you said you don't believe any of the protesters were charged (although I don't think he was charged yet). ... Copied to Clipboard!

So, a couple things...Just curious, is this based off relevant local laws or your understanding? Just asking because in NY, self defense still applies whether the gun is legal or illegal.

So the reason im confident in what im saying is that im a criminal who is under disability because of felonies.
If someone breaks into my house and a gun magically appeared in my hand and I shot him I get charged with... Possession of a weapon under disability. Assault with a deadly weapon (gun spec) Murder (not manslaughter) (gun spec) if the guy dies Nothing I do changes those charges. Funny thing is that if I pick up a crossbow and walking dead him I get no charges. --- I know, indeed, the evil of that I purpose; but my inclination gets the better of my judgment. - Euripides ...

In most states, but don't want to go look up for WI, you are unable to claim self defense if you committed an illegal action leading to the incident in which you are trying to claim self defense.

Something that hasn't been brought up yet is that if the fucker wants to use self defense as a defense in court, he needs to not only prove he was in grave danger but also that retreat was not an option (WI requires one to retreat in public if safe to do so--it's not a stand your ground state). It's likely that the police have access to witnesses and video we don't, but even setting aside the question of whether illegally carrying the firearm automatically negates self defense, he's going to have a hell of time trying to convince a jury of that defense, especially given he was clearly intending to pick a fight.
That's in addition to the fact that if he provoked whatever he was supposedly defending against (pointed the gun at someone, said something threatening, etc.) it's game over. --- I...I shall consume.

Eh, he was running around protestors waving a gun around. He was asking for it. You are right to a certain point. He's stirring the pot a bit by being there. But anti protesters are allowed to be where protesters are. A couple months ago a guy from NM was an anti protestor at a statue thing. He wound up dragging a woman protester to the ground by her hair. As a result, he got chased. He fled. The chasers caught up to him and attacked him with a skateboard and another pulled out knives. The guy shot the knife guy, and was initially charged with attempted murder or something, but the charges were dropped once the video showing he was being attacked while fleeing surfaced. It didn't matter that he was an anti protester carrying a gun into the lions cage. It didn't matter that he did something that made people want to chase him. The reality is that he fled, and therefore he is no longer a threat, and therefore use of deadly force against him is illegal. If something similar to that happened with Rittenhouse leading to him shooting the very first guy (the one with unclear footage), for example if he was being chased and threatened with deadly force, and evidence of that surfaces, they will probably drop any violent crime charges against him. ...

It doesn't matter if you caused a problem *if you're fleeing*. If Rittenhouse was being attacked or threatened with deadly force *while fleeing*, then he has a right to defend himself even if he caused a problem that influenced them to chase him.
For example, if I shove a protester, then the protester and others around them can use *reasonable* force to get me to leave them alone and respect their space. If in response to that I use force again, that's not allowed, and I'd be rightfully punished. However if I shove a protester and then turn around and run, *the protester is not allowed to chase me and then use force against me*, because there's no reason to since I've left the area and am no longer a problem to them. Stand your ground laws only pertain to whether a person has a duty to flee or not. So if he was fleeing, stand your ground doesn't even come into play. ... Copied to Clipboard!
