Yet another failure for the prosecution of Kyle Rittenhouse: The judge presiding over the homicide trial tossed another charge against the 18-year-old on Monday.
Kenosha County Circuit Judge Bruce Schroeder concluded that the misdemeanor count of possession of a dangerous weapon under the age of 18 could not stand because the barrel size of the rifle Rittenhouse carried the night he shot and killed two people does not technically fit Wisconsin’s gun law.
The law in question is Wisconsin Statute 948.60(2)(a), which states, "Any person under 18 years of age who possesses or goes armed with a dangerous weapon is guilty of a Class A misdemeanor." However, a third section under the law grants certain exemptions and says the law only applies to persons under 18 years of age carrying a gun who are found in violation of or not in compliance with three rules: The first bans short-barreled shotguns or short-barreled rifles, the second restricts “hunting and use of firearms by persons under 16 years of age,” and the third requires persons who plan to hunt to be licensed.
Rittenhouse’s defense team acknowledged he violated the third rule, which would require him to be licensed to carry a weapon used for hunting. But the other two rules do not apply, they argued, because Rittenhouse’s AR-style weapon is not a short-barreled shotgun nor a short-barreled rifle and because Rittenhouse was 17 years old, not 16 years old, at the time of the shooting.
This was enough for Schroeder, who conceded the Wisconsin law was “poorly worded” and dropped the charge.

and Wolves?? Really.. fucking wolves? the coyotes we can keep because they eat rats and field mice and other rodents (bunnies too)
but Bears, Wolves, Racoons can all suck it!
Missouri is instituting its first bear hunt this year in forever.

I think that meat thermometer would be very helpful.
It would let you check temp without opening the oven and releasing all the heat requiring time to get back to where you were to begin with as well as preventing unsafe, undercooked meat or leathery, dried out overcooked meat.
Not entirely necessary, but helpful nevertheless.

That whole "FOR THE BETTER GOOD" thingy.
Too bad it is meeting up with such opposition from the "ME ME ME" generation.
I'm sure glad the "Greatest Generation" didn't feel that way or we'd all be goose stepping now.
