Read the statute.

use or possession

It's about hunting and training/target practice.

Restrictions on possession or control of a firearm. No person 14 years of age or older but under 16 years of age may have in his or her possession or control any firearm unless he or she

it is in the context of this.

possession, or control... its not even debatable ive lived here 40yrs and well known

the issue is if he was violating other laws when doing it

I guess it's completely irrelevant law, according to your position.

if ur age 14 and passed hunters safety, the same training requirement we have for CCW, then u can open carry a rifle or shotgun also

as long as its not a SBR

or SBS

after 16 you need nothing

Yep, pretty sure you're simply wrong on that one. We'll see though.

https://docs.legis.wisconsin.gov/statutes/statutes/948/60/2/a As this would be pretty contrary to the argument you're making. Why even have this language in the bill if it's not illegal.

"(a) Any person under 18 years of age who possesses or goes armed with a dangerous weapon is guilty of a Class A misdemeanor."

its done everyday around here, thats for handguns and every other "dangerous weapon"

theres exceptions for rifles and shotguns, unless its a SBS

Except that's only in context of hunting!

its not lol

There is an "or" here. Kyle was not in compliance with hunting regulations.

its for possession and even the legal term control

It literally is.

u can have ur opinion, but the law is clearly written, albeit a bit confusing for the average person

My dude, I study law all the time. The argument from the prosecutor makes lots more sense.

29.304 literally says... Restrictions on possession or control of a firearm, its not just for hunting

Ah yes, we ignore the bits about it being about hunting and target practice.

The mental pretzel in the works.

Discord is dying at the moment.

its also for that sure, but the law is clearly written

It's literally for that specifically. lol

It states it numerous times in the statute.

29.304  Restrictions on hunting and use of firearms by persons under 16 years of age. nothing there even for 16 and 17 year olds, the whole law doesnt even apply to those over 16

Sort of done arguing this though.

I am 98% sure that charge is valid and it may stick. But given that I think the murder charges will drop, they will likely drop the misdemeanor anyway.

Bro

it's about hunting.

It's in the context of hunting.

its not a crime to possess a rifle or shotgun age 16+ in Wisconsin, its not about hunting

There are other hunting rules and regulations for the general populace.

It's 100% about hunting, good luck taking that defense to court where it's proven to fail multiple times already.
