You’re absolutely right, the article said the gun was loaded. All in all, it doesn’t look good for the young man. I’m not unreasonable. Any scenario is possible, but I don’t do worse case first. We don’t know this but it could be he is older, not a minor. He could be part of a gang or a wanna-be who was given the gun to hold so the cops wouldn’t be able to find it. I’m sure the pair consider themselves a couple but what does the girl’s mother and/or father think about that?

It said in the article, I believe, that the girl was later released. I can envision the mother storming into the station and telling the cops that they know who the guy is and that they’ve been trying to keep him away from their daughter due to his being a bad influence. Maybe that’s why the license wasn’t renewed because they thought the girl was making bad decisions and it was a way to clip her wings. I’m sure they said she took the car without their permission. Yes, there will be consequences but terrorizing the girl was something that didn’t need adding to a bad mix.

In the end, the young man is going to have to pay the piper. I don’t think he was a seasoned criminal because he was so frightened that he dropped the gun rather than use it, but his actions were of grave concern, and depending on what his age actually is and any prior violations, will be dealt with accordingly.

As for acting like a lunatic? After months and months of seeing the police kill unarmed men and women she was probably out of her mind with fear she could be killed as well. When you get a little older and wiser you learn when to shut the **** up. Maybe the parents will be having that conversation with her as well as to how to speak with the police in the future should the occasion ever arise again. I hope so.

I wish the officer had kept his cool. His reputation has been tarnished as well. I don’t know how long he has served or if he has ever had to face disciplinary actions before but how embarrassing to be reprimanded at his age and possibly go through some sort of retraining if he stays put. It’s on his record now too. With body cams becoming the norm, police officers need to remember that they can make any report they want but if the video footage doesn’t support it, there may be administrative actions taken, not to mention it doesn’t help that these things can end up on the internet. I can’t say that the dept. appreciates the bad publicity that generates either.

This is one story I would love to get a follow up on but because a minor is involved we’ll probably never hear all the details.

 

I don’t see it that way. While the situation wasn’t good, it didn’t involve any violence resulting in injury or death. We know for certain one of the “kids” was a minor. So serious, but not catastrophic by any means.

I think the mother went to the station and like any mother, her first instinct would be to protect her daughter. She would hand the boy over on a silver platter if it mean leniency for her own girl, providing they weren’t brother and sister, lol. Who wants their minor daughter ramming around with a boy who has a stolen gun especially since they are responsible for her actions until she is 18 and in some states 21. Mom might have said something about how the officer spoke to her daughter. Maybe not. You have to be able to read the room. Done properly it could have been a good shaming moment. I don’t know about that mother but I could have done it easily and left with an apology from the precinct.

Now the police need to locate the boy, check him out, trace the weapon to any outstanding crimes and no doubt return it to it’s rightful owner, who reported it stolen. I’m sure they’ll also check to see that the owner had the gun properly registered and has a license to own one. If the department is any good, they’ll cross all their t’s and dot their i’s before it’s over.

It depends on the state as to whether this rises to the level where the boy is charged, incarcerated, let out on bail or whatever system they’re working on. It varies widely.

Judge rules that the 3 people killed by Kyle Rittenhouse cant be called victims due to a long standing rule about it being a loaded word that cant be applied since the defendant hasn’t been convicted yet. Uh huh! But the victims can be called looters, arsonists and rioters despite the fact that they can NEVER be convicted... you know.. because they’re dead!! Sounds like the judge is loaded.

The truth is out there

 

What’s all this knicker twisting about a boy with a stolen gun who never fired it as far as we know. Kyle Rittenhouse killed people.

From politifact :


The Wisconsin Department of Justice honors concealed carry permits issued in Illinois. But Rittenhouse did not have a permit to begin with, and he was not legally old enough to carry a firearm in Wisconsin.

In Illinois, concealed carry applicants must be at least 21 years old. Since Rittenhouse is 17, he would not qualify for a permit. In Wisconsin, it is legal for adults to carry firearms in public without a license if the gun is visible. However, to open carry, you must be at least 18 years old.

He is a lawbreaker like any other criminal. As a minor he should not have even been there. His parents should be held responsible for his actions as well as he was supposed to be under their care.

“The nature of the child's actions influences the existence and degree of parental liability. Though each case is unique, a parent can typically be held liable for any negligent or willful acts committed by the child. In terms of civil matters, a child may be called negligent for causing a car accident.”

 

Mental illness is a terrible problem in this country.

 

This guy’s a keeper. Seriously, how did no one notice the stench of a rotting body? I couldn’t stand the smell of a mouse that died in one of our traps at the summer place. A human body? In an apartment? This is crazy.

It would depend how close the body was to the front door of the apartment and how close neighbors were. They got away with it so long because of Covid. No one would be going into any of these apartments unless the tenants are asking for maintenance.

Those poor kids. What hell they've lived through the past year.

 

The gif is about the “blame game” on why this guy isn’t in jail.

Pretty sure I hear a lot of conservatives yelling about their “freedom of speech” bs too.

I always say “words have consequences- whether it’s good or bad”.
