Those people attacked him prior. His weapon was not illegally acquired.
@jachee: You don't have to "transfer" a gun to carry it across state lines, only when you first buy it through the FFL.
@croes: being armed by itself is not a threat, if you point a gun at someone you are the aggressor and that person can defend themselves.
just because you "see" someone with a gun doesn't mean you can shoot them, if they aim it at you that's another story. the first aggressor matters.
@happytoexplain: no you would be wrong to try to restrain the man who is simply armed. if that state had a open carry law you would be in the wrong trying to confront him if he was not pointing it at you or others. there are plenty examples of both sides openly carrying at protests.

- MaxLeiter 5y agoThe man who sold him the gun was charged for selling it. https://www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/kyle-rittenhouse-reveals-how-gun-was-paid-for-in-first-interview-since-arrest/2366751/ https://www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/kyle-rittenhouse-revea...
- Grieving 5y agoFirst, Black didn't sell the gun to Rittenhouse. He bought it with Rittenhouse's money and allowed Rittenhouse to use it. Second, Black has been charged but not convicted, and I don't think the charge will stick: the argument is that while this was technically legal according to the letter of the law, the law in question was written with only underage hunters in mind, and should not apply in this case. Since the law itself makes no such distinctions, I don't see this as anything more than an empty gesture. Maybe I'm wrong.
- jachee 5y agoIt wasn’t legally acquired in or transferred to the state in which it was fired.
- DamnYuppie 5y agoI am not quite sure what you are referring to for the transfer. You only have to transfer a fire arm if you are selling it across state lines. In that case you basically ship it to an FFL dealer in that state and the person who is buying it goes and picks it up from that FFL. Usually the buyer will direct you to the FFL of their choice. If you buy a firearm in your home state and then take it to another state you don't have to transfer or register it.
- croes 5y agoWhat would you do if you see a man with a M&P15? If two sides are armed each side sees the other as a threat. So both can claim self defense and both are wrong.
