This is a case of the police arresting the mob target to de-escelate the mob.
All this really did is encourage the mob to do it again, and show any potential mob victim that they are going to get arrested if they try to defend themselves.
Home owners are undoubtedly thinking that if you are going to get arrested anyway for defending your home, why not leave a pile of bodies on your front lawn before hand, and make the arrest worth it?
Seems like a drastic oversight that this applies even in your own home. Is it really the legislators intention that you can't drink in your own home without forfeiting the means to defends yourself?

We'll have to see if he gets charged.
Update: according to a police statement, he was drunk while handling the gun. If true, it's likely he'll get charged for that. https://mobile.twitter.com/MilwaukeePolice/status/1306349626568642561/photo/1
