It’s just one of the many, many, many differences between the circumstances surrounding Rittenhouse’s gun and the circumstances surrounding Ruby’s.What does that have to do with it?
I bet he wanted it back… it’s like kryptonite to Superman… His attorney definitely made that decision. It’s probably not a bad callYeah, but you're missing the part where you aren't Rittenhouse. He didn't want it. Didn't want to sell it, auction it off, or own it. He wanted it gone.
I don't get that either, but it's his property and if he wanted to State to melt it down, why should any of us have a problem with that?
As for your $25k... well, hell. I'd rather use that to buy a few Valmets and a cannon or two. You do you, but I'm not into throwing good money after bad.
I wonder if they will send him a bill for disposal.Post 27 is, I think I read, what happened.
Rittenhouse agreed to this outcome. I’d feel completely different if he wanted the gun back, but he didn’t. He basically asked the State to destroy it. What happened the other day was just the legal formality allowing that to happen.
I give up.How is it legal to be ordered destroyed by the .gov.
The accused was found not guilty by the jury, the personal property seized as evidence should be returned to the owner.
If this can stand than if someone is mugged, the mugger set free then the wallet and contents are destroyed? Thieves make off with house contents, contents located, contents can be destroyed, not returned to the lawful owners.
This seems wrong the destruction of personal property? Just cause it was used in a trial, where the defendant was found not guilty.
Sometimes they don’t wanna return it without you paying the bills to remove the brain matter from it… Like you guys have never put a firearm in a dishwasherI wonder if they will send him a bill for disposal.

Was the news source Jenn Psaki? Some lab dude just got himself a nice souvenir..Rittenhouse claimed he wanted the gun so he could destroy it.
The state called his bluff, and he either had to go with the deal or say "I didn't really mean it" and destroy his credibility.

Or did they? Misinformation and conspiracy theories are more fun…...or you could watch the video...
They ran it through a gun version of a woodchipper. Nobody got anything but fragments.

Sort of like a 1933 St Gaudens.Uh huh. Have you seen the video? It's pretty clearly his gun.
I'll put it this way: anyone showing up in the future with "Rittenhouse's gun" is going to have to come up with lots and lots of explanations about why it's in one piece. They won't sound convincing.
You should see the Bren gun that someone displays at our club's open house.I'll put it this way: anyone showing up in the future with "Rittenhouse's gun" is going to have to come up with lots and lots of explanations about why it's in one piece. They won't sound convincing.
Imagine if he had a kevlar sling,It's sad that they didn't just destroy the "firearm" (lower receiver). They shoved the entire rifle into the chipper, followed by the Aimpoint optic, and then the Magpul mag.

Except the NRA museum remains "temporarily closed", while they continue to loot the collection and give it to Friends of Wayne.If it were me, I'd have it donated to the NRA museum so everyone had the opportunity to make pilgrimage and pay tribute.
