Kyle Rittenhouse Has Gotten Away With Murder—as Predicted (Major Hurl alert)
The Nation ^ | Nov. 19, 2021 | Elie Mystal

Posted on 11/19/2021 2:48:49 PM PST by Michael.SF.

Kyle Rittenhouse, who was 17 years old when he shot three people, killing two, officially got away with murder. A jury of his white peers ruled that Rittenhouse acted in self-defense when he illegally acquired a gun, traveled across state lines, lied about his status as a medic, pointed his gun at protesters, and then used it to kill others.

The verdict is not surprising, if you are familiar with how the criminal justice system works for white people. Wisconsin Judge Bruce Schroeder, who presided over the Rittenhouse trial, consistently made rulings in the best interest of the white gunman.

“There are some serious delusional kooks at Daily Kos.”

Yes there are.

It gets worse though. There were progressives that couldn’t believe, that none of the Rittenhouse attackers were black. They only found that out at trial.

The left-wing nuts who operate that site couldn’t care less about the truth.

They’re “selling racism and sticking to it.” These are white progressives doing this BTW.

Self defense is NOT murder

“So what does race have to do with this?”

To people like Mystal, Joy Reid, Al Sharpton, and their ilk, race is EVERYTHING.

Millions of complete low-infos have all day been discovering to their amazement that Kyle shot white guys, not black guys, so there might not be as much interest now — although the Christmas swag is on the shelves and ripe for the picking.

What the left does not want to see is we have a right to self defense.

“Why post this?”

This is an excellent article that should be read far and wide. Excellent not because of the content, but because it’s an outstanding example of the oppositions thinking and philosophy. Its a great article to hand to those who say: “ can’t we all just compromise and get along?” How? You can’t fix stupid, and you can’t negotiate with crazy.

This is another example of why cultural divorce is a necessity.

“It’s who the left is, we should constantly be reminded of it, because we can never forget what giving these people any amount of power leads to...”

We should teach our children this, esp in good times.

All you young folks here on FR: DON’T FORGET

Mystal is the closest thing on earth to a human Brillo Pad except Don King but not as smart. He writes for the Marxist “The Nation”. Guess he couldn’t cut it for “Pravda, Tass, Izvestia, New Times” and the “Peking Daily” - because he is too crazy even for them.

He can be sued but it might be harder to sue The Nation unless they reviewed is writing and approved of it. It is was jut an opinion piece, they might not be sueable for libel, slander and/or defamation.

But it is worth a try. Might as well tie the Marxist Left up in lawsuit knots. At least it would keep them off the streets of journalism for a while.

I guess they could argue that running it in The Nation isn’t “publication” since nobody reads it, at least not seriously. Mystal is a disgusting waste of space.
