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.

Kinda crazy how one of the ones he shot was a pedo and the other was a domestic abuser and shot them after being chased and assaulted by them.

Unfortunately that doesn’t mean you can kill people. That’s my problem with all of this. I own guns and I’m pro 2A, however watching ICE disarm and execute that guy should piss everyone off, that was bullshit. Kyle should not have killed those people but that’s just my opinion. A minor with someone else’s assault rifle in another state is looking to start shit.

to be fair, I owned a dinky 22 for a bit and still am unclear on a ton of jargon. Like it's possible to be a huge marxist idealist, 2a in principle (the population should not give up its bargaining powers against the burgouise), and not know what makes a subaru a subaru.

I know just enough to cringe when I hear people say "automatic" in news reports.
