Kyle Rittenhouse, in an unusual move for a defendant, took the witness stand Wednesday. He cried. His defense team then made a motion for a mistrial with prejudice, which means Rittenhouse couldn’t be retried. But whatever the court rules, he has already won.

He’s charged with reckless homicide, intentional homicide and attempted intentional homicide for shooting three people (killing two of them) who were protesting the police shooting of yet another Black man, Jacob Blake, in Kenosha, Wisconsin, last summer. The protest followed many George Floyd-inspired ones that erupted across the world calling for police accountability and justice for Black lives. White allies, like the ones Rittenhouse shot, were among the protesters. Rittenhouse has pleaded not guilty.
If Rittenhouse is convicted, he will likely stop being a right-wing mascot and become a right-wing martyr. If he isn’t convicted, he will set a precedent for others like him to pick up guns they shouldn’t have and thrust themselves into the middle of unrest they should avoid — confident in knowing that prison won’t be in their future.
To his supporters, and even many of his detractors, Rittenhouse isn’t a monster. Not really. He was a young, dumb kid hyped up on the Foxification or Fox News effect of American discourse on the Black Lives Matter movement in a country that fetishes guns — for show, for sport and for killing — not a white supremacist, like, say Dylann Roof. Not really. He wore no hoods and didn’t wrap himself in the Confederate flag. He’s a patriot who tried to bring calm to chaos because, as Fox News prime-time host Tucker Carlson told us at the time of the shooting, the adults around him wouldn’t “maintain order.” He was so nonviolent that police officers greeted him and those like him like fellow guardians of the community before he killed anyone.
He didn’t open fire until absolutely necessary. It was “self-defense,” his supporters have told us outside the courtroom and his lawyers have argued inside the courtroom. Had “criminals,” whom many of us prefer to call Rittenhouse’s victims — though the judge said they can’t be called that during the trial — not rushed him, had not provoked him, they would be alive and he would never have been charged. None of his decisions before the moments he pulled the trigger seem to matter. He defended himself. That’s all.
I mean, look at his red, tear-stained face on the stand, so compelling that the judge stopped the trial for 10 minutes to allow Rittenhouse to compose himself. His tears tell the story.

This has to be THE most biased,racist,anti-white, left-wing piece of propoganda ever published,and no comments are allowed and the writer never once identifies himself as a black supr Iemist racist piece of crap. I knew he was,but had to look up his photo to verify it.
Now,I know it is NOT allowed to identify our racist masters are the racist pieces of offal they are,but I,for one,am TIRED of remaining silent while I,and many other innocecent white people are going identified as racists and murdererers,merely because we support justice instead of black bigotry.
This piece of offal is nothing LESS than a full-blown bleep. That IS what he is,so why not be able to identifify him correctly?
If we don't start fighting back soon,we are going to lose and become second-class citizens in "The Brave New World" and end up being servants for our black masters.
We are doing America,the cause of freedom,and indeed,the possibe safetly of blacks who are NOT the racists pigs he is a disservice by not signling black racists like him out and identifying them for what they are in public.
I defy ANYONE to read his report and find one single thing to disagree with me about on this.
