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.

The left thinks defending yourself against a mobster terrorist who is trying to kill you is murder. Different laws and law enforcement for different classes of people. Pure and simple.

“the lesson that should have been learned from this debacle is that JUSTICE and LAW and ORDER must prevail and when it doesn’t, these types of tragedies will occur....”

Yep. The blame for all of this lies squarely on the shoulders of the Mayor of Kenosha, the Chief of Police, and the entire city council. Had they stopped things the first night this entire thing would never have happened.

Elie Mystal at ‘The Nation’ libels Kyle Rittenhouse saying he got away with murder just after he was found not guilty by a jury. Add her and ‘The Nation’ to the list of defendants in his lawsuits.

Personally I don’t get upset or angry about it anymore, it’s who they are and is to be expected....

EXACTLY! If they didn’t lie, manipulate, emote, and be illogical, that would be a concern. By know if we don’t know who they are and what they will do we are idiots.

If we allow them to get us upset by their commie actions, we have submitted ourselves to their control.

Suggest everyone send an email to this punk leftist and let her hear from people who believe the verdict was fair.

Leftists need to hear from good Americans who disagree with protecting violent mobs.

They’ll just keep pouring gas on the racial fire.

The first two sentences are so full of garbage and people will read it and believe. We’ll be explaining to people for years that Kyle didn’t ‘illegally have a gun’ and didn’t ‘point it at people’ or commit ‘murder’.

He only shot at people that were clearly about to kill him and then left everyone else alone, finally turning himself in.

The media has blood on their hands (again), they’re the real enemy.

when he illegally acquired a gun - false, charge was dropped. He exercised his constitutional right to bear arms.

traveled across state lines - again exercised his constitutional right to travel.

lied about his status as a medic - not a crime, and he did have a med kit and had some basic first aid training, so he didn’t “lie” and even if he did, it wasn’t against the law

pointed his gun at protesters - who were threatening his life as is his right.

and then used it to kill others - in self denfense against aggressive rioters.

There FIXED IT!

The writer is using a style guide that suggests using the word “white” in at least every other sentence just so you KNOW what they’re getting at.

white, lower case w, is a color

White, upper case W, is a reference to Caucasian Americans, and corresponds to Black, upper case B, which refers to African Americans

It makes zero sense to refer to Whites as whites (lower case w) while referring to Blacks as Blacks (upper case B).

The only things Kyle was guilty of were youthful exuberance and (what Ambrose Bierce would call) praiseworthy homicide.

Some vermin just need exterminating, and it’s a shame he had to endure so much agony for performing that service for the rest of us.

The beauty of the Kyle Rittenhouse verdict is how it upsets the liberals. They tried during the trial to indict him, calling him a white supremecist, saying he intended to murder, attacking him in any way they could. In the end, common sense affected the jurors and they decided rightly that he was not guilty, that it was self defense. The liberals would have us give up the right to self defense in favor of radical fioters whom they back. That is the way in the democratic party.
