Andrew Branca explains why the gun possession charge against Rittenhouse needs to go....

[2aguy]

It is not totally illegal to bring firearms to a political event, but very stupid and risky.
Just the chances of an accidental discharge alone is far too great.
When it is done en-mass, for political effect, I would bet all rifles have clips removed and chambers emptied.
Otherwise it should be illegal.

If a person is defending property, like the Korean grocers at the LA riots, they are deliberately intimidating rioters, but only about the one property, not about the whole riot.
But Kyle failed to do that.
Instead we was going from person to person in the riot, deliberately showing off his rifle, in order to deliberately counter the entire riot.
Which is totally and completely illegal.
Legally he should have been shot and killed for his illegal, deliberate intimidation with a lethal weapon.

His claim he was trying to render medical aid, was ridiculous.

Wow.....all these black guys with rifles...marching in Dallas.....and not a shot fired by any of them...

You were saying about rifles at a protest?

Freeman and about three dozen others calling themselves the ‘Huey P. Newton Gun Club’, after one of the founders of the original Black Panther party, marched and chanted for about an hour through south Dallas Wednesday.

Yes....all of the professional lawyers and the judge are wrong........even the prosecution whose best hope was the weapon conviction..........

Obviously the prosecution was hoping to deliberately throw the case, from day one.
Prosecutors are usually ex-cops, and always do what the police want.

Nor is there a single professional lawyer who agrees the minor in possession charge should have been thrown out.
Kyle clearly is guilty of that crime.

Good point, however, having lived in Dallas, I think some of those cops there need to be shot.

Sure is a lot of bitter leftist tears in this thread.

 

[Esdraelon]

dangerous and provocative things like carrying a rifle to a political event.

So... you equate RIOTING as a "political event"? The nation will be better off when rioting becomes an opportunity for citizens to hone their marksmanship skills.

Disgusting AND evil. What a piece of work you are.
