Misinformation on Kenosha
Mr and Mrs Keith and the Girl,
Please look into the Kenosha incident before pushing forward misinformation in the future. Misinformation is damaging to your listeners and the public political rhetoric in general.
The gun charges will be convictions but this case is a clear cut self defense case. He was chased and cornered (then gun fire from a member of the mob's pistol) before he shot the first guy who chased him and cornered him. The first guy pursued the victim (shooter) because the kid put out a dumpster fire with a fire extinguisher that was going to be pushed into the line of police, he was then attacked. After the first shoots fired he took off running towards the police line. He was pursued by a mob that attempted to punch him, he fell. When on his back one guy tried to hit him in the head with a skateboard (deadly force), the next tried to vertically stomp his head (deadly force) and the third ran up to him with a Glock drawn, there is a stutter step then when the Glock is moved forward to shoot the downed kid; a single defensive shot was fired.
All rounds fired from the AR-15 were clear instances of self defense from reasonable expectation of deadly force or serious bodily harm.
Being 17 and in possession of his friends semi-auto firearm (they said they would jointly own it together but this isn't a thing in the laws of firearm laws, the kid also couldn't own or buy the firearm in IL) will lead to gun related charges but any murder or murder adjacent conviction will be a travesty of justice.
