is there video evidence of him receiving the gun from his friend? or sworn testimony?

possession of a firearm is a misdemeanor for a minor, crossing state lines is a felony.

and defense lawyer might advise that he claim he got it from a friend, and that the friend purchased it, etc.

in any case its entirely speculation. the biggest piece of evidence would be a receipt by that friend on the purchase of that gun, which still wouldnt be hard proof it wasn't given to kyle or purchased on behalf of kyle. purchasing such a gun in WI is easier than IL.

really tho its not important to me, id be fine if there were 27 cell phone videos of Kyle getting handed the gun. wouldnt bother me.

"Additionally, there is no evidence the gun was ever physically possessed by Kyle Rittenhouse in Illinois," the state's attorney's office added.

this follows along with what i had heard:



there is only the word of him and his friend that it was given to Kyle in Wisconsin. i tend to think otherwise but its not a point i can or would defend, nor do i have a shred of evidence.

as a guy who's driven plenty of guns from Illinois to Wisconsin, my grandpa waited until i was 18 to let me :)

At least this case coupled with Chauvin's will deter people from manifesting their white rage regardless of the verdict. Kid deluded himself into thinking his white privilege gave him immunity to prosecution. If he was born as a cute blonde to non-trailer trash parents, he could have killed more with impunity no doubt, but he inherited the white trash genes based on his appearance alas.

Imagine a 15 year old black kid from inner city Chicago taking an illegally possessed firearm illegally across state lines into Indiana to a Trump rally and shooting some people in MAGA hats.

You know, to “defend property” from violent 3%ers and Oath Keepers.

There would be no question in any conservative mind. Not only would they be demanding his execution, they’d be blaming all black people for their cultural problem.

That's not even remotely close to what Kyle did though.

Nice try.

That is exactly what Kyle did. I fucking copy pasted what he did and changed his race and what town he’s from.
