KENOSHA, Wis. — A man charged with illegally buying the gun Kyle Rittenhouse used in two deadly shootings during the Kenosha unrest last August appeared in court Tuesday.

Dominick Black, 19, of Racine, was charged with two counts of intentionally giving a dangerous weapon to a person under the age of 18, causing death.

1. Good! I hope the killer gets nailed too.

[Bettie]

2. Good

I hope he gets the full 12 years and serves it as well.

[Sneederbunk]

3. Will probably get more time than Killer Kyle.

[Hoyt]

4. Just what I was thinking. It's really sad, but bet killer, gun-toting punk gets very little time.

5. Did his parents know he had the gun? I would be interested in that.

[Thunderbeast]

10. His mom was an accomplice after the fact

Drove him home across state lines after the murder.

She should get time as well.

The "Party of Accountability" is about to learn some lessons. They all banked on the FG to protect them from the law.

6. Two young men who threw it all away for nothing.

7. At least one of them will pay a price because my faith that Rittenhouse will ever do time

is nil.

8. Right!

Like Trump, no consequences, but low hanging fruit around him will. Somebody pays just to make it look like justice is a thing.

9. I hope Rittenhouse gets his share, too. I am worried he's going to walk.

11. Lock him up

12. 2 young gun nuts

that can never legally touch a firearm again for the rest of their life’s.

19. Assuming Rittenhouse gets convicted. I give it a 50/50 chance

13. Unfortunately

I think this will be the only person that does anytime.
A good lawyer will have very little trouble convincing a thoughtfully chosen jury that KR was acting in self defense with the video evidence.

14. This is so, WAIT, WHAT?

The guy who illegally sold a gun to someone who did the murdering is more responsible (thus far) than the murderer who killed in cold blood? Not to mention Fox and the RW talking machine that eggs their audiences on to perpetrate such heinous acts of savagery as righteous? They all need to be put away!

16. I wonder if he will also enjoy some completely perverted admiration and largesse.

Will members of various police forces - right up to Chief of Police - send him money and call him something like the Great Democratizer of the 2nd Amendment? I hope they both do lots and lots of time, but in different prisons. I wouldn't want either of them to have the comfort of even one ally or compatriot.

17. To a guy of 19, 12 years will seem like an eternity

To lose the third decade of your life like that is unthinkable.

If he is cool with what his pal Kyle did, then I don't care what happens to him in prison. Let the lifers pass him around after they're done. If he is horrified about what Kyle did with the gun he got him, and Kyle does no time, then Kyle would do well to look for a permanent job on Nauru or in Bhutan before his buddy Dominick gets out of prison.

18. Twelve for him, life for the double-murderer

Minimal justice. The dead are still dead and the third person maimed forever.
