who he got the gun from or why his parents let him drive or took him there to look for trouble? I believe under
Federal law you must be 18 years old to buy a long gun. If you are under 18 you can buy one from a private party.
Did he buy the gun and who from or did his parents let him use the gun?

PS

I didn't realize he was so close to Kenosha I corrected it. I had Minnesota and Wisconsin crossed in my head. But rather than argue about the shooter people are stuck on the distance he traveled? What is the difference?

1. Deep web I bet.

2. His Mom drove him there! n/t

3. CNN said it was lent to him when he got up there, at a 'patriot' meetup for RWers going to 'pwn the

libs'

4. Which is also a crime

she should be arrested also, if she hasn't been.

8. Wasn't supplying him with a gun against the law "contributing to the delinquency of a minor" ?

17. Am calling bullshit on the "lent gun"

Here’ a comparison photo

20. I do not know, only saying what the MSM was saying for days.

21. My post was not directed toward you

It was at CNN ... grrrr

5. Several hundred miles?

What route do you have him taking? Google says ~20 miles between the towns.

12. I had to refresh myself with a map didn't realize it was that close. But why did she know

what he going there for? I corrected it.

19. Takes Around 40 Minutes

Have to be going pretty fast to do several hundred miles in 40 minutes!

6. He's from Antioch OH, which is all of 15 miles from Kenosha WI..

I think Rittenhouse borrowed the rifle from someone he knew in WI, where he had a job. Given that he regularly went there to work, I imagine he had access to a car to get there.

7. No one seems to have proof he worked in Kenosha.

He was employed as a lifeguard in Illinois.

10. I think you meant Antioch, Illinois.

Antioch, Ohio, is a good twelve hours from Kenosha.

11. It's been reported that his mother drove him there and picked him up after he killed two people...

and severely wounded another. Some parenting.

14. There is no city in Ohio 15 miles from Wisconsin if that is where he was from. I thought he was

for Illinois.

15. You mean Antioch, Illinois?

9. It's not hundreds of miles.

It's 20 miles from Antioch, IL to Kenosha, WI.

From what I've seen, he's been well acquainted with guns since he was very young.

13. I want to know why mommy isn't in jail.

I hope they're looking to use her strategically but to be frank it seems doubtful that would work with a sociopath like that little piece of shit.

16. Definitely think mom needs to charged with aiding and abetting or something. One problem

is that I'm not confident they are going to get the little Prick Rittenhouse on anything, except maybe a relatively minor gun charge.

From what I can tell, the first guy shot, followed the little police wannabe into a car lot and confronted him and supposedly tried to take Rittenhouse's rifle from him.

"Prosecutors said Rosenbaum followed Rittenhouse into a used car lot, where he threw a plastic bag at the gunman and attempted to take the weapon from him." https://abc13.com/kyle-rittenhouse-kenosha-shooting-jacob-blake/6393801/

Now shooting someone who threw a plastic bag at you still seems like murder; but if he was trying to take the rifle away, that changes things. Does anyone have a video of the first shooting?

The guy that was shot in the arm was carrying his own pistol.

If on a jury, I'd vote to convict Rittenhouse just for going to a protest armed, being a pissant right winger looking for trouble, and even wearing his hat backwards.

But, have a feeling the defense will claim that Rittenhouse shot the first guy in self-defense and the others were chasing him to take his rifle too.

Whatever, it ought to be a crime to carry a gun to a protest.

18. There was a story about

how his whole family are Militia members and it was Mommy who popped for the Gun.
