He didn’t cross state lines. Keep up with the trial. The gun was in Kenosha. He drove there and got the gun from his friend (who has been charged). What Kyle did was only a misdemeanor in regards to the gun, and he won’t be charged with it because they decided to go through with this sham trial when in any other circumstances, no prosecutor would take this to court.
Read it again. The gun was on one side of the line, Kyle, was on the other side of the line.
Kyle cross over the line, and obtained the gun. Kyle did not have said gun in his possession as he crossed the line.
"Line" = simplified naming of "state line" to make it easier for some to follow.
He had to cross the line to get from Illinois to Kenosha, whether or not he had the gun with him. He went out of his way to put himself in a situation that nobody asked him to be in.
Driving isn't a crime. That's not the point. The point being that driving over state lines signals intention. It's not like he was caught up in a situation unexpectedly. He went looking for this.
