Apparently the judge and the Prosecution want Kenosha to burn..."It's as if the Drumpf Administration is made up of the worst and unfunny parts of the Cleveland Browns, Washington Generals, and the alien Mon-Stars from Space Jam."

The judge at Kyle Rittenhouse’s murder trial has dismissed a count of possession of a dangerous weapon by a person under 18.
The charge is only a misdemeanor, but it had appeared to be among the likeliest to net a conviction for prosecutors. There’s no dispute that Rittenhouse was 17 when he carried an AR-style semi-automatic rifle on the streets of Kenosha in August 2020 and used it to kill two men and wound a third.
But the defense argued that Wisconsin’s statute had an exception that could be read to clear Rittenhouse. That exception involves whether or not a rifle or shotgun is short-barreled.
After prosecutors conceded in court Monday that Rittenhouse’s rifle was not short-barreled, Judge Bruce Schroeder dismissed the charge.

Is Binger the best the Sconnies have?
I mean we know Sconnies can't write long-gun laws (barrel length exception leads to dismissed charge), but Binger points an AR into the jury box with his "booger-picker on the bang switch". Not a good look post-"Rust".

The issue is with the way the statute is written. 948.60(2) makes it illegal for someone under the age of 18 to carry a dangerous weapon, the definition of which includes any gun. There are supposed to be three exceptions to this (that make it legal for someone under 18 to carry a gun): target practice/instruction under adult supervision (948.60(3)a), armed forces (948.60(3)b), and what is supposed to be for the purpose of hunting (948.60(3)c). C then has exceptions to the exception (making it illegal even if hunting) if carrying a short barreled weapon or violating other hunting regulations. However, c is so poorly written that it is basically nonsensical, leaving out language cleary tying it to hunting so that the intent is only understood in the context of a and b and the references to hunters safety and regulations. It is quite possibly too vague to enforce, although I don't believe there is any relevant case law.Wisconsin Hockey: What're YOU looking at?

I'd really like to hear what the prosecution and defense were thinking regarding this motion. In my opinion, this case could very well be one where the jury decides to convict on one of the lesser charges, sort of as a compromise among the jurors. Maybe they don't accept murder, but will go with manslaughter or something like that. If I were the defense, I might be inclined to leave that gun charge in, since it's only a misdemeanor. A compromise verdict with just a finding of guilt on that misdemeanor would have to feel like a win, I'd think.
I suppose, however, they are required to ask that it be dismissed if they think it doesn't apply, in order to preserve that for appeal, and if the judge grants it, so be it.That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.
