    Those calling this a miscarriage of justice, basically the left, are trying to overthrow democracy. So now they stand with Trump!

    Do you think the law and the legal system creates the destruction and disintegration of the country or are you upset based on feelings?

    phobias are not the fault of a gun owner.
    Because it's against the law to have them within a thousand feet of a school.

    No it's because people have a phobia.

    If someone is only afraid of people when they have guns and can see them that someone isn't very smart. The type of person that would aim to do someone harm wouldn't openly carry a firearm.

    He needs to sue Biden for referring to him as a white supremacist. There needs to be a defamation law suit. Not just with Biden but against the entire liberal press.

    Race of those involved and the date of the occurrence are immaterial. Self defense is a right everyone has.

    The evidence won the case, not much a prosecutor could do with it. I do agree this prosecutor overstepped his role in this just to try and win, not to seek proper justice and should be removed from that position. He should never have brought the case.

    Courts affirming the rights of a US citizen is bad? I’m sure you think those peaceful blm and antifa riots all over the country are good for the country? Freely burn homes and businesses, breaking and entering, stealing everything in Walmart’s, Targets, Walgreens. Violence against police and citizens. Taking over entire areas of city’s and holding it hostage…….all that is what good for this country?

    It was a justice at it's finest. And innocent person was found not guilty even in the face of the lynch mobs outside the door and the lies and misrepresentations being published in the media and even the President of the United States engaged. The jury came through and proper justice was served.

    Those calling it a miscarriage of justice fail to realize that justice under the law is for the accused. Read the Constitution and the rights of persons under the law. It is to protect the accused and subject to sanction up to capital punish by the government under the law. Justice occurs in the courtroom where the government has to prove it's case. It was Rittenhouse who received proper justice today.

    I would contend that the race of the SHOOTER is very material...

    Agreed. The concept of a UNITED States is becoming something of a misnomer...

    An MSNBC anchor just a few minutes ago was already asking whether this case could now be tried in federal court. They want this kid found guilty so bad they can taste it...

    We revel in those trying to defend it against those actively engaged in destruction and disintegration when law enforce is not there to do so. What do you do in your country when violent marauding gangs are burning and destroying everything in sight and the police are told to stand down?

    How so? Because apparently the left isn't interested in stopping the thousands of black-on-black shootings that occur every single year in Chicago and Detroit...

    Of course, because the left thinks race is more important than law.

    Why? It is only material if you think that the race of the shooter had anything to do with the reason he shot. In this case it did not. In fact, the only person that got away with assaulting Rittenhouse was black.

    Amazing, we ALL have a CONSTITUTIONAL right to defend ourselves. A jury just said this was self defense and a LAWFUL use of force. So what would be the lawsuit. I'm read those wanting federal civil rights violations charges and him being arrested. The evidence was quite clear and they jury seems to have taken great strides to go over it completely asking several key questions and coming to their determination.

    If I was to exercise my right to peacefully protest the mostly peaceful RIOTERS, but knew there was a high chance of being assaulted or possibly murdered by the extremist leftist mob, YES! you're damn right I'd be carrying an AR-15 for self defense purposes. The Progressive Left doesn't own the Streets of Kenosha or any other Street in America for them to Riot and Burn at their convenience. I've never been convicted of a violent crime in my life, never stolen anything, mug or murdered anyone, Nothing but a speeding ticket, but if I'm out on the streets with a firearm for personal protection, that's my choice. Extremist Liberals, protest away and I support your stand, but stay the F away from me and don't threaten me if I have an opposing opinion, because I will do whatever I need to do to protect myself. The extremists on the left think they have a free pass to assault conservatives with a difference of opinion, Kyle Rittenhouse proved they don't.
