understand what a travesty the Rittenhouse trial was. I routinely read of unarmed black people straying into communities where the signs forbidding blacks are instinctively on display. A short jump to this. This murderous racist "caricature" murdered 2 white men protesting another black man's unjust and brutal murder.
Unlike the Civil War Civil about enforced bondage of black people, it seems in cases like this it's about an enforced unequal justice and extrajudicial system that has always enabled authorities and citizens alike to detain and/or shoot down unarmed black women, men and children for the most part with impunity. Now the jury has spoken, he killed in self-defence.
He interjected a lethal civilian firearm into a basically peaceful protest. He intimidated then executed RW fears with an illegal firearm. When his threatening produced excited unarmed protestors saying WTF man or something to that effect. One wounded, 2 killed with prejudice.
He pulled the trigger on basically unarmed citizens. Just as that Confederate War soldier pulled the trigger on a Union soldier or vice versa. Both were armed then, but not in this case. This was murder and I feel murder with malice. Just opinion. How far did those rounds travel (I wonder)? There were strays. I can presume?
