The Rittenhouse verdict

I got suckered in. For a few days I actually began to have hope that this little Nazi fucker was going to get what he deserved. Cause the general theory is that a longer deliberation raises the odds of  a conviction, because it takes people longer to agree on sending someone to prison than not.

So much for that. The result of this shamockery of a trial wound up being what we all feared it would be. A murderer walks free. Because the judge made a joke of the whole proceedings. Because this little prick put on a hilariously fake performance and cried on the stand. Because this white jury saw a cherubic white kid and thought he couldn't possibly have done what all evidence and logic showed that he did.

What Rittenhouse did was travel to another state, and head, armed with an assault rifle, into a large protest situation that he had no business being at. He can claim he was there to administer medical aid all he wants to, but he had no qualifications to do this any more than he had authority to act as some sort of citizen soldier. 

And he murdered two people and shot a third, under the guise of self defense...even though HE was ONE HUNDRED PERCENT responsible for the dangerous situation HE created. 

We always hear the fantasy of the hero stepping in to stop an active shooter. Remember when Trump claimed he would have rushed into the Parkland school to stop that shooter? Well, this acquittal tells us that said shooter could have shot Trump and walked free.

This is where we are now after this preposterous miscarriage of justice. This is a signal to every last one of these deranged, violent, unhinged MAGAt terrorists that they now have free reign to go out and shoot anybody they want, claim self defense regardless of evidence, and odds are this utterly broken American justice system will set them free.

And now we know this is true even if the killer is not a cop, and even if the victims (and yes, Judge Dipshit, they WERE victims) are white.

This is the future if these demonic ReTHUGlicans regain majority power. It will be open season on all liberals. It already may be.
