It seems it's not even a misdemeanor...  he's completely in the clear.

It is a misdemeanor. I posted it above. Its6also a misdemeanor that will prohibit from owning a firearm in the future.

Not to mention he was being pursued by a known pedophile felon who had just thrown an object at him, hit with a skateboard and had a pistol aimed at him.
This is a clear cut case of self defense and charged on political crimes.

Misdemeanors under 18 end on his 18th birthday. There is no provision in the law that states he can lose his Second Amendment Right.

That's why they're going after him... he killed one of their own!

Such a loss...... NOTTTT!

If he committed a "crime" misdemeanor or not, while under the age of 18 then he must be tried as a juvenile.

The little bit I've just now dug into, it seems like you were right originally... he's completely in the clear and legal.

What statue did he break?  Specifically?

948.60 (2)(a)

948.60 (2)(a)

"Statute 948.60 only applies to a person under the age of 18 who are in violation of 941.28 or not in compliance with 29.304 and 29.593."

That is the difference between a misdemeanor and a felony. The guy that gave Rittenhouse the firearm committed a felony as perv948.60(2)(b),

How so?

Posession of NFA weapons without the proper permits and hunting without the proper license are both felonies. Selling a firearm to a minot is also a felony. In other words if someone under 18yo is open carrying a dangerous weapon it's a misdemeanor. If the exceptions apply it becomes a felony.

"In the statute, short-barreled shotguns or short-barreled rifles are those which require a special license under the National Firearms Act. In general, those are rifles with a barrel less than 16 inches in length or shotguns with a barrel less than 18 inches in length, or either which have an overall length of less than 26 inches.

The rifle carried by Kyle Rittenhouse, as an ordinary AR15 type and does not fall into those categories, so Kyle was not violating 941.28."



"Was Kyle in violation of Wisconsin statute 29.304 and statute 29.539? These statutes deal with hunting regulation and with people under the age of 16 carrying rifles and shotguns. ... Kyle is reported to be over 16 years old, so he was not violating statute 29.304."

And... Rittenhouse is still in violation of 948.60(2)(a). It's a misdemeanor.  The exceptions make the misdemeanor into a felony. That is what the exception applies to. Read the whole statute 948.60. By definition any firearm, loaded or unloaded, is a dangerous weapon. The artcle is wrong. There is no state that is going to let 17yo kids walk around in public with AR15s or any other rifle.
