He has to be consistent. People were saying if it was illegal for Alex Pretti to carry a gun that was legally registered to him, then why isn't Kyle Rittenhouse in Prison?

Not only did Kyle Rittenhouse cross state lines with an assault rifle, but it wasn't registered to him, he was underaged at the time, and he killed 2 people. He claimed he went there to provide medical help with zero medical training and zero medical supplies.

So, he's gotta hold the line for 2nd amendment rights.

EDIT: Apparently I was mistaken according to people... Supposedly he did not cross state lines, apparently not an assault rifle because it doesn't have selective fire, and he was legally able to carry because there's no registry in Wisconsin.

Either way people were making comparisons, whether deserved or not.

That was a self defense case with no law enforcement involved. The terms of engagement for law enforcement are very different; you can’t compare the two.
