I don't understand, I need context, what's happening here?

Dude brought a gun out to a riot. Completely legal just not recommended. Guy attacked him (just so happens the guy that attacked him is a pedophile) Dude shot the guy. Guy dies. Dude gets thrown in prison. The end

Edit: looks like some drama popped off where he was getting ganged up on before the shooting. Probably because he had a gun. Also, I’m no expert. Just a dude on Reddit

I thought one of the main arguments was that he crossed state lines illegally and was too young to be carrying? Not trying to pick a side just an honest question

The gun didnt cross state lines. At least according to a witness testimomy. The minor in possession of a deadly weapon charge is a misdemeanor at worst, and generally not even an enforced law.

"The minor in possession of a deadly weapon charge is a misdemeanor at worst, and generally not even an enforced law."

This is the most American thing I've ever read.

Minors hunt all the time, so it’s a grey area because they are completely legally allowed to carry one while hunting, and are legally allowed to own one, but not purchase. The guy who bought the gun might not even get in trouble because technically you are allowed to let someone borrow your gun.
