The gun charges have been dismissed. It was not illegal for Rittenhouse to possess a rifle under the age of 18.

Mr doctor or dentist office doesn't even require a mask. My work does but doesn't enforce how its worn so there are a lot of chin guards.

The more I read about this case I don't think he will be convicted on anything. I don't even think he had the firearm illegally. You don't have to be 18 to be in possession of a long gun or rifle which he had. Its the same law that allows kids to go hunting. A person would need to be 18 or older to possess a hand gun.

You guys sure have drank the kool-aid on the insurection conspiracy theory. You really think they were people in centers directing it?

I was a little surprised by that. I thought they were content with the guys they had. Its good they are now always looking to improve.

I like this move if they can get it done. They will still be lookingfor addition pitchers too.

Yup! I think people are just trying to bring attention to themselves or start disagreements with people that don't agree with them. There are so many things people can change but they can't change how they were born.

If they signed all these players I would hope so. A few teams have proven lately a stacked line up doesn't equal success. The 84 team has a lot of good players but not a lot of great ones. They were able to play well together. Thats more important than a team full of all stars in my opinion

I would agree with you if it was the 1950's but this is a different USA today. Too much violence, too much thug mentality, no respect, not enough police and criminals are coddled and given a free pass too many times. Take Michael Brown for an example. He attacks a police officer and the officer does his job to take down the violent offender to protect himself and save his life. The officer loses his job and is crucified by liberals and the media for doing his job. Obama even sends a state dept delegation to the dead thugs funeral. That's unbelievable! Americans have a lot of rights and they are not required to be a victim. If you don't like firearms, don't want to carry one or prefer to be victim that's your choice but don't condemn others that are doing nothing wrong.

Then you know they are no different than any other semi auto rifle. If I was in Rittenhouse's position I would have had a handgun. The rifle isn't the best defensive firearm in close quarters.

I agree with you that he didn't have to be there but neither did the BLM and other rioters. Fact is he was in his legal right to be there. The rioters arent very bright if they attack an armed individual with a skateboard. Its worse than taking a knife to a gun fight.

Remind me never to use you for research since you are wrong. Rittenhouse had a semi auto rifle. It wasn't perfect use for his situation but it saved his life against domestic terrorists.

They are a semi auto rifle. Some uninformed person made up that AR-15 stood for assult rifle. The AR-15 was first built in the 1950s by Armalite and that is where the AR comes from. They have the same capacity and use as many other semi auto rifles. Some uninformed people even call them weapons of war or military weapons. AR-15 are no such thing. If our military used them in combat they would be seriously outgunned by the opposition. They are nothing remotely close to a military rifle other than looks. Last I knew looks don't kill.

I wonder how much Al considers the hot wife when looking at trades?

Its not an argument. If you dont know the difference between firearms its best to educate yourself so you won't look foolish. Assult rifle is a term someone gave a firearm because they are afraid of how it looks. It doesn't work any different than any other semi auto firearm. If you don't like firearms, afraid of them or don't know how to use one its best to stay away from them. We don't need another Alec Baldwin.

A person can sell a used firearm at anytime. Laws are different for rifles and handguns. When purchasing a new firearm a person has to have a background check. If you buy it for someone else and do not disclose it that's called a straw purchase and its illegal. I think the person who provided the rifle to Rittenhouse is facing charges.

That's not legal in michigan. You sign that you're not buying the firearm for someone else.

I have heard same as you that he was there to help protect businesses and be a medic. What is an assault rifle? I see that term used a lot here.

I read that a friend of his in Kenosh supplied the rifle.

There are some people like my kids that believe all people are good. These sort of people think they can help out.

Apparently Joe is a baseball fan since he went off script in his Veteran's Day speech and started talking about Satchel Paige. He stated Paige was a great negro. No wonder they won't let him talk to the press.

That's one thing that I wasn't clear on. Where did he get the rifle and when did he get it? If the mom drove him with the rifle then yes that should be an issue for her. As a parent I would never take my child to riot or to do community service in an area where violence was likely.

He shot three people. If he was convicted of anything I think it would be with the first one. The videos show the second and third guy as the aggressors attacking him and those are clearly self defense. One guy was armed with a handgun and the other had a skateboard that was turned into a weapon when he started beating him with it.

They might have a hard time with that because there's several photos of him working around town cleaning graffiti off buildings. She can say she drove him to do community service instead of a riot.

I second that. Apparently JV is still on the radar too. About the only big name FA pitcher I haven't heard Tigers had an interest in is Max Sherzer.
