Kyle Rittenhouse: Anatomy of a divisive distraction
The teenager’s trial for double murder is a case study in how the media covers a story to distract and divide the public.
Kit Knightly
How many people reading this think that Kyle Rittenhouse is a white supremacist who shot three black people?
Probably more than a few.
The truth is that all three of the shooting victims were white.
And yet, yesterday, on the day of the verdict being announced, the UK Independent ran this frontpage, describing the victims as black:
This is after three weeks of a live-streamed trial in which one of the victims had actually testified on the stand.
Think about that, in the most high-profile trial for years, the press can’t even be relied upon to get the race of the victims right.
Is this an accident? Of course not.
It’s all part of a disinformation campaign designed to turn one tragic violent incident into a narrative that serves a bigger agenda by further dividing the public into racial and political factions.
background
For those of you who aren’t familiar with the case, yesterday, after four days of deliberation, a jury found 18-year-old Kyle Rittenhouse “not guilty on all charges”.
Rittenhouse was on trial for shooting three people, two fatally, during the riots in Kenosha WI in August 2020.
The verdict “sparked outrage”, and protests over the acquittal sprang up all over the country. President Joe Biden “urged calm”, but that was highly disingenuous.
The truth is the establishment wants those protests, and wants them to be anything but calm. They feed on that type of chaos.
The entire Kyle Rittenhouse situation is a perfect exemplar of how an incident can be created, then exploited in the media, to create bitter political divisions and distract the public from greater issues.
Creating the chaos
First of all, let’s clarify what we mean by “created”. That’s not to say the victims weren’t shot, or that Kyle Rittenhouse isn’t real. I’m not saying it’s a psy-op (although I can’t 100% rule that out).
Rather, the conditions were created where something like this was almost certainly going to happen.
The death of George Floyd getting the publicity it did was entirely deliberate. The resulting protests being praised by the “healthcare heroes” and being excused from Lockdown rules, is a sure sign of narrative creation.
This fed into all the BLM protests last summer. Protests which, regardless of whether or not you agree with their cause or trust that there were created organically, were unquestionably violent and destructive.
The violence was schizophrenically both dismissed and simultaneously encouraged in the press.
In some cities, mysterious pallets full of bricks appeared on street corners in the planned marching route:
I believe this was a setup! Those bricks are up the street from some very expensive shops in Downtown Dallas!

Meanwhile, as this violence was being encouraged on the one hand, the police forces were being ordered to stand down, and let the riots run their course.
The nurtured violence and police inaction was always going to result in vigilantes attempting to restore order on their own terms. And that was always going to end in violence.
Enter Kyle Rittenhouse.
The trial
I’m not going to get into the legal technicalities of the trial here, or argue whether or not the boy was guilty (save for saying, according to the evidence I have seen, the self-defense argument has a lot of merit).
My point isn’t about the trial itself, but rather about the media coverage of the trial, and how it is used to entrench opinions and bitterness.
First they create the violence, then they misrepresent it to tell a story that serves the agenda.
It’s interesting to note that whether or not you were surprised by the not guilty verdict entirely depends on where you’ve been reading about the trial.
If you were following the trial on the live stream or discussing it on twitter, you probably were pretty sure the Rittenhouse would be found not guilty.
But conversely, anyone reading/watching mainstream “left” or “liberal” outlets will almost certainly think of the boy as a white supremacist who shot three black protesters on purpose, and consider his guilt a foregone conclusion.
The misinformation was such that, as shown above, many people still believe that the three shooting victims were black, when all three were actually white.
These misconceptions were deliberately fostered in order to turn the trial into a “race issue”. Much like the OJ Simpson trial, the real story is sidelined in favour of manufactured political theatre designed to split the nation along racial divides.
The truth stops mattering, it instead becomes a hindrance as the issue is transformed into a platform on which to demonstrate virtue.
“I believe Rittenhouse is evil, no matter the evidence, because I am a good person.”
The teams are picked, and the implacable positions taken up, to ensure constant in-fighting in the public.
The Aftershocks
So, what happens now?
Well, now comes the media autopsy, where myths are solidified and future agendas set in motion.
First, we can expect dozens of articles condemning the American justice system, and demanding unspecified “reform” (which is always a dangerous word).
Editorials will appear claiming that Rittenhouse would have been convicted if he were black, and similar banal interpretations designed to do nothing but reinforce a worldview.
On top of that, it will be used as fuel for gun control cause, which we should expect to gather some momentum as vaccine mandates are brought it in. (If the US wants to become like Australia or Germany right now, they’re going to need fewer guns in public hands or things could get real messy.)
And while all of this is going on, there’s no discussion of the really important issues.
The mass transfer of power to the state. The hysterical witchhunt-like social atmosphere. The ever-increasing rate of unemployment and poverty. The frightening power of monopolies.
All put aside so that Democrats can hate Republicans, and black and white people can fear each other. Resentment, bitterness, anger…all cultivated and nurtured, like garden.
Kyle Rittenhouse is a famous name now, he will be demonised by the left and canonised by the right.
But we’ll likely never know the names of the men who stack loose bricks on street corners, and profit from the ensuing chaos.

This is indicative of the sickness in USA — and why so many celebrate its murderous military “heroes” — a country that “legally” permits a 17 yr old to cavort about the streets with a rifle strapped to his chest. He took on the role of a vigilante, which no-one sane should condone.
The real problem is White Supremacy and the failure to defund the police. The only reason why communists riot and burn for 100 consecutive nights and blacks loot anything that is not nailed down is because white people are mean to them and there are too many police, who just hate black people for the colour of their skin and want to shoot innocent looters and rioters for no reason. The more police there are, the more crime. The solution is obvious. Abolish the police and all the trouble will vanish overnight. Its all jolly simple when you think about it.
America did the right thing. He should sue the left wing media.
βLeft Wing Mediaβ?
This event is/was clearly a PSYOP. The whole story and the actors involved are beyond ridiculous, and not credible. The trial itself is highly suspicious, occurring at the same time as the Maxwell trial (you forgot to mention that Kit…)
The goal of the psyop is/was the usual: stoke fear and division, set people up against each other, draw attention away from “that other trial” etc. etc. They’re already on the next psyop by the time we are done “analyzing” the last one. Reminds me of that Karl Rove quote:
βWeβre an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality. And while youβre studying that reality β judiciously, as you will β weβll act again, creating other new realities, which you can study too, and thatβs how things will sort out. Weβre historyβs actors . . . and you, all of you, will be left to just study what we do.β
While I am sure it was not intended that way, “actors” here takes on a double meaning – yes, they act in the sense that they make things happen, they also “act” and make things that don’t happen, happen… they also “create” new realities all the time. That also takes on a double meaning when you know how these guys operate.
Plato said: “Those who tell stories, rule society”. How true that is indeed. If the story is true or false or even happened at all, is secondary.
The reference to those mysterious pallets of bricks appearing at the scenes of BLM protests reminded me of that old Star Trek episode βThe Day of the Doveβ in which an alien entity boards the star ship and causes weapons to appear in order to fuel endless battles which it feeds off:
The video you shared is the kind of thing the βleftβ and liberals in America would shout about but sadly she bats for another team because it would spoil the stereotype that places like Virginia are wildly racist
The above article goes insufficiently into the background of the people concerned and plays into the hands of white political right narrative. Kyle Rittenhouse responded to a Facebook post from an American soldier who himself contributed to the criminal invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan. Kyle Rittenhouse disagreed with black lives matter but agreed with blue lives matter (i.e.) police. The members of the racist vigilante group Kyle Rittenhouse was part of were much more part of the establishment than any Antifa member. The police turned a blind eye to a so-called teenager carrying an assault rifle in an already tense area. The judge who decreed Kyle Rittenhouse allegedly not guilty was heard to have his mobile phone ring with the untruthful statement ‘God bless America’.
Do your effing research Off-guardian article writer.
Perhaps YOU should do your own research instead of quoting the MSM?
The New York Times is indeed mainstream media (MSM) but that doesn’t mean the following YouTube video is generating fiction either. https://youtu.be/VpTW2AJE9MQ
I had a look and first, I automatically mistrust anyone who says, as the narrator here does, βWe analysed all this footageβ and second, these interviewees look and sound like actors to me.
A civilian teenager walking around the streets with an assault rifle and not being double tapped by a police sniper – only in America…
Last month in an Athens suburb the police shot and killed a Gypsy youth for not stopping his car and the police did not even pretend he had a gun.
I think you will find that it was a jury who found Rittenhouse not guilty.
Kyle Rittenhouse was part of a white vigilante group who were trying to act as heroes against nonexistent black looters, cowardly used his gun against some chasing white justice protesters, was respected by the local racially motivated police and then found innocent by an American judge of German descent.
Sit down youβre part of the problem now fuck off
π If America has become a Marxist (communist) nation why is Kyle Rittenhouse free?
Over at the Unz site much of the commentariat thinks exactly that, then when the verdict came through some assumed there was hope left. No doubt they will be back to claiming the USA is a Jewish Bolshevik paradise in a week’s time.
Whatβs Marxism and whatβs communism? Trust me Iβll be able to tell if you google it or not
The dead victims were white sympathisers of “black lives matter”.
1 a Paedo another a serial liar and the other a wife beater and someone who punched his own GRANDMOTHER! Also your white sympathiser of BLM was shouting βshoot me niggaβ at black people with rifles! Sit down clown
Up vote
how do we shut the entire media mafia down??? HOW??? watch alternate sources of news…..ignore the tripe….they are being funded for the soul purpose of propaganda……it only works if you watch and believe it
BBC headline fuels the problem it complains about:
We most certainly know the names of the scum behind all of it. Obama, Clinton’s, Bushs, Cheneys, Pelosi, Schumer and the CIA, Mi6, Mossad and the Davos crowd with George and Klaus and big tech. Really it’s no mystery. You better have a plan to destroy them because they are currently destroying you and your Civilization.
“weβll likely never know the names of the men who stack loose bricks on street corners”
what is likelihood that these are the same men who gave our newest hero an assault rifle? they seem to be very good at it, with lots of experience.
Crawl out from your rock and find out. Hint: Kyle Rittenhouse explained how he got the rifle at his trial. Itβs quite a stretch to suggest a couple of kids went out to defend their neighborhood while also leaving pallets of bricks. Maybe facts arenβt your forte.
as an american hero who killed people for the good of humanity, he is surely now eligible for the nobel peace prize.
Hey, he killed a five time child rapist. Pretty good for the first try.
Is there such a thing as white supremacy?
Only if one considers that progress since the dawn of the industrial revolution was largely driven by the ‘white’ European and north American cultures.
By that metric can one say white skinned people (however that’s defined) are superior to those with less white skin?
Possibly circumstance drove the largely indigenous northern hemisphere community to develop more novel and efficient ways of keeping warm. Perhaps why the nomadic life there largely petered out as the skill of housebuilding and modern agriculture evolved.
Yes, there was slavery, but that existed between tribes and lands of all colour and creed long before Britain and America adopted, then outlawed it.
Had any ‘black’ nation outlawed slavery before the UK and the US did? I don’t know, but I do believe it goes on to this day, even on our own shores.
The concept of endemic black suppression across the western world did exist, but was gradually being crushed by natural means, education and Christian beliefs in united humanity rather than division.
From the 1960’s on there was enormous progress made on both sides of a bizarre social division based on skin colour. But it can never be ignored that the white community drove progress for the last 200 years or so.
Did the white community share its success? Clearly, yes it did. It even harboured a sense of guilt that it didn’t bring the black community with it as it progressed. But neither did it stop the brown or yellow communities, nor the religious communities to come along with it.
So the western world stopped. There can be little doubt of that. Over the last 50 years the world has almost stood still technologically to rebalance itself socially.
Indeed, one of the most astonishing successes of the 21st Century world has been the Internet, a means by which people can interact and communicate, no matter their race, religion or culture.
It has overpowered almost every other domain of progress whilst we wrangle with its technical, social and cultural influences.
The printing press encouraged the world to read. The internet is encouraging the world to communicate. There is a massive difference.
And from where did the internet evolve? Once again, largely from an ambitious, largely white community.
If some from the black community, and I emphasise some – as it’s only a very small minority, want to divide nations along racial lines squealing ‘unfair’, I’m sorry, but they must bring something more to the table than tribal violence, otherwise they perpetuate the myth of black subjugation.
Is/was Rittenhouse a ‘white supremacist’? Not one shred of evidence was presented to suggest that. Did Rittenhouse target black people? No, he shot three ‘white’ assailants whilst, for the most part, he was lying on his back, on the ground, having been chased for several hundred metres by at least three ‘adults’.
Had Rittenhouse been in police uniform he would have not only been entitled to use deadly force, he would have been required to by his oath of office.No Cop is expected to die for the want of the reasonable mitigation of self defence, and being on the ground whilst being attacked by at least three grown men is a reasonable threat to his life.
They knew he had a weapon. Who in their right mind would pursue, corner, then physically attack someone under those circumstances and not expect them to act in self defence by the most obvious means.
My opinion is Rittenhouse made only one mistake. He didn’t turn his weapon on his assailants when he was able to, when upright, and warn them to stop, perhaps loosing off a warning shot (dangerous to others up to nearly a mile off though) before shooting any that advanced to attack him.
Knowing how to shoot a gun is one thing, knowing how to use one is quite another.
Is/was Rittenhouse a white supremacists? One only has to ask oneself what you would do when faced with a fatal beating and using your weapon as a last resort to survival.
There is a campaign in the UK called ‘One Punch’ https://www.onepunch.org.uk/campaigns which rightly highlights the danger to an individual from just a single blow to the head, instant death on some occasions.
Was Rittenhouse obliged to submit himself to this risk? Or was he right to defend himself from it? Whilst possibly not recognising this campaign, the jury presumably included it in their verdict on Rittenhouse.
He didn’t care who he shot. He was a scared kid lying on the ground being attacked by adults. Were Rittenhouse my son, I would have pulled the trigger for him, just long before he had to shoot three people.
“natural means, education and Christian beliefs in united humanity rather than division”
are you working for a reputation laundering firm?
do you go out much???
You left out the most important contribution of the “white” race: pollution. Thanks to all the wondrous accomplishments you list, the world we live in and share with millions of other species has become so toxic we’ll be lucky to be alive ten years from now.
Oh, and also nuclear bombs which could wipe out everything on the planet in the blink of an eye. Not to mention nuclear power, with its inevitable Chernobyl and Fukushima.
Perhaps indigenous peoples the world over exhibited a superior wisdom in not having opened the Pandora’s Box of technological wonders.
It could be argued that it wasn’t wisdom that prevented the indigenous from developing these technologies, but incompetence. Just their luck I suppose.

functionally, “caring about politics” in modern america amounts to hopping from one manufactured “issue” to another like frogs on lily pads, selecting from the narrow band of “opinions” that will not get you in trouble with your “allies”.
once you realize the ride just never stops, and that almost every “issue” is at most tangentially related to the actual lives of the people yelling, it all feels kind of silly.
https://twitter.com/gnocchiwizard/status/1462505999953063937
What a great comment and quote.
Yes Slothrop.wow
As always a well propagated outcome to mess with the sheeple. This was not just a drive across state, armed with a play station for a destination shoot out party with the kids.
“the self-defense argument has a lot of merit”
duh .. the same as US army goes to Syria and massacres women and children, in self-defense?
How does one defend themselves by traveling to another state armed with an assault rifle?
He didn’t travel to another state whilst armed you dipshit!
“Divisive Distraction”
the bread and butter of the deep state.
I think you can pretend that’s what it is to cover up the truth that is the main actors were all a part of something much bigger than the cops or prosecution will ever let the media know. There was undoubtedly a major back story to their associations that the elite want kept secret and yes it revolves around sex and pedophilia,actually pederastrt really which is the usual accompaniment of drug trafficking and of course teens with guns who are the partners on.crime of the same epidemic of criminality and corruption all run by the Rule of law.
I have read plenty of right websites that approve of the death of an anti-fascist protester in Charlottesville and even brought into it that she was obese – not a rare condition in the USA. Internet and media partisanship are rife.
Fact is she died of a heart attack. Was not even struck by the assailants car. She was morbidly obese, not just fat and was also a chain smoker.
So she deserved to die? Because at Unz a lot of the commentariat definitely think so.
Don’t be pointlessly argumentative. Nothing James said implies she “deserved to die” and you know it.
I would prefer to hear that from the man himself. As I noted, over at another website people obsessed with the Charlottesville victim’s body weight do think that way, and I would be sorry if some of the traits of the Unz commentariat made their way here.

Some questions not being asked with a view to this possibly being a CIA psyop:
1. Who is really Kyle Rittenhouse? is he related to the famous Rittenhouse family? (Ref United States mint) This is very interesting if it is the case. What was he doing as a βmilitiaβ in this psyop if so?
2. Who are the victims? All the victims have names that sound like they are from a certain βethnicityβ for lack of a better word. Isnβt that strange?
3. Who is Joshua Ziminski? Again see point 2.
German descent is common there and Ziminski sounds like Polish ancestry. I doubt whether Rittenhouse had ancestors who came over on the Mayflower.
FFS……
Why a CIA psyop? Compared to Europeans, Americans are dripping with guns and the USA is the land of provocations and counter-provocations and is not too stable lately. It reminds me of the abolitionist Senator Sumner before the US Civil War lambasting slave-owners and another Congressman commented to a friend, “That damn fool’s going to get himself shot by some other damn fool.” A Southern damn fool named Brooks severely beat Sumner with a cane. Northerners considered Brooks a thug, Southerners sent him new canes as he broke the cane he beat Sumner with. The partisan reactions prefigured the Civil War that came a few years later.
The answer to your question about ethnicity lies in who is Antifa. It’s been stated categorically that if you are against Antifa you are antisemitic.

What a load of rubbish
Fun stuff. Well, well. Can’t have two opposing ideas in your noggin”. You betcha Mainstream Mush Media is part of the PR project of divide and conquer., Duh. And any coverage of any sort of legal deal by MSM and the lefty media, it becomes that bread and circuses mayhem of mental mendacity.
But I betcha if I was coming into a Proud Boys rally, say, in Philly, in some poor neighborhood, with largely BIPOC living there. Me, a 64 year old white guy, with my AK-47. Sure, and if I saw some Proud Boy throwing a brick at a window, and if I tried to stop it with my white commie voice, with a warning, if that Kyle-loving Proud Boy pulled a gun out, and I dead-eyed him, hmm. What would those pigs in blue do.
And if I ran away from some big ass White Guys coming at me, and I fell on the ground, and then shot off one of the Trump loving guy’s arms, and dead eye got the other in the heart, hmm, what would those pigs do?
And, if I got out alive, I just wonder what that trial would look like? All my on-line presence as a commie, anti-military, anti-pigs, anti-Border Patrol, anti-Biden-Trump-Bush-Clinton-Obama spiels? Hmm, what what a jury of my peers (not) do with the instructions of another sad sack DA, another criminal injustice judge?
Right. I went in there, with an eye for vigilante murder.
Now, flip it a bit more — make that a 64-year-old Black man, coming into Philly to protect the ‘hood.
Right, MSM would crucify me, the left would, and so would, I think, some of these Off-Guardian soldiers of salacious typing.
Oh, yeah, Kit never really dealt with a 17 year old messed up cute chubby faced little racist, little gun lover, little cop wannabe. Nah. But I sure as have, as a 17 year old wrestler in Arizona, you betcha. Punks and gun-totting ones, you just have no idea who these freaks are.
It’s got nothing to do with Trump-Yes, Biden-No. Not a goddamned thing to do with this political manure show. Kyle is a wannabe Bad Hombre, loving every bit of the accolades for murdering white guys.
Oh, I know what’s in this buddy’s heart. I’ve been a journalist in Idaho and Spokane, and been to some of theses little survival camps . . . been to Houston gun shows . . . been out in the woods of Oregon with some of these Kyle guys and their Kyle parents.
He’s guilty, and you know it.

Regardless of how just or unjust the verdict was, the proof that this trial was designed to be a media spectacle, a circus and a distraction is that it was televised live. The faces, the personalities! The drama, the emotion, the tension, the tears!
Contrast this with all those pastel sketches from all those discreetly un-televised “terrorism” trials.
Americans often do that. Europeans do not. Interviews with jurors after their verdict are common in the US media (some were interviewed after acquitting OJ – most seemed dumb as posts but maybe that is just my impression) whereas jurors in Britain are expected to avoid the media.

We may “never know the names of the men who stack loose bricks on street corners” but we do know the agency that orders the bricks delivered, “and profit(s) from the ensuing chaos.” The FBI and comparable system provocateurs have been actively subverting anti-capitalist political dissidence since the Red Scare Palmer Raids in 1919 and perpetuated by Hoover/FBI’s Cointelpro activities in the 60’s against the Black Panthers and Black Power/Anti-Imperialism/Anti-War/Anti-Poverty/Anti-Racism movements. Many feel Cointelpro activities continue today.
In over 20 years of protest activism i have never seen a firearm at a protest I attended, other than Police, until this year in Salem, OR. Two <21 with draped automatic weapons. Open carry States have jacked up provocateur exploitation dramatically. The divisiveness created is the objective of the ruling class and they are achieving it more ways than "the language of the unheard" riots. Enabling Blue Scare frightened Liberals to become energized vigilante behavior police has taken almost two years. But businesses are now emboldened to harass customers in grocery stores, even though masked. A baseball bat was poked in the chest of a peaceful auditor woman asking for a cup of coffee in a cookie shop. My wife had a glass and phone ripped out of her hand. People have been pushed around and roughed up by angry employees worked up by this media frenzy since the beginning. When will a media vilified store employee pull a firearm on a customer? Is it just just a matter of time? Will years of divide & conquer hate theater produce excuse for permanent martial law?
Rittenhouse was a minor with an automatic weapon, that itself illegal, traveling to a vigilante tourism opportunity he should never have been at. Whites with guns at a Black riot? Highly suspicious, especially on the Left. [A weapon at a protest in 21st C Oakland CA would be a suicidal act. The only “protester” with a firearm at J6 was an undercover cop apparently part of the scheme to set-up the Right to waltz into Congress all video recorded.] It looks as though Rittenhouse did defend himself because they pulled a handgun on him. But, the ruling elite and their ever evolving lawmaking that creates these confrontational conditions is the creator & benefactor. The people involving themselves become merely willing players in a theater of hate setup by system administrators. Our only opportunity we have here is to stop playing into their hands.
I suspect Off-Guardian will give homage to that other racist, the big one, you know, the one who got the Nobel Peace (sic) Prize — I’m waiting for the racists and leaky libertarians here to come on with a great piece on this dead fellow —
Frederik βF.W.β de Klerk, the white supremacist, mass murderer and apartheidβs last president died in South Africa on November 11, 2021 at his home in the Fresnaye area of Cape Town. He succumbed to cancer at the age of 85.
de Klerk unleashed a barbaric and brutal war against Black people in South Africa to maintain white economic power and racial segregation. His legacy continues in the neo-colonial patterns of violence and white economic control in the country.
He worked in collusion with South African partners and ushered in the post-apartheid era neo-colonialism. He provided a pragmatic strategy that allowed for the transition from apartheid to neo-colonialism, thus protecting western investments and undergirding white supremacy. The result was a continuation of high levels of Black poverty, mortality rates, and hopelessness. For that shining achievement on behalf of western capital, he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize along with the late Nelson Mandela, the first post-apartheid president.
In the early 1990s, de Klerk, as state president and leader of the racist National Party, negotiated with Mandela and the African National Congress (ANC). However, de Klerkβs realpolitik strategy was to murder Black South Africans through a vicious campaign using homicidal mercenaries that attacked unarmed civilians in Black townships. He cynically described the violence as βBlack on Blackβ violence. The apartheid government, in a last ditch effort to maintain power, funded a Zulu nationalist party, the Inkatha Freedom Party, as South Africaβs defense forces provided the group with funds and training .
Appearing on the South African Broadcasting Corporation, de Klerk refused to concede the obvious, that apartheid was a crime against humanity. βGenocide is a crime. Apartheid cannot be, thatβs why Iβm saying this, cannot be, for instance, be compared with genocide. There was never genocide,β Mr. de Klerk said. βMany people died, but more people died because of Black-on-Black violence than because of apartheid.β

Maybe Glen Greenwald or Matt Taibbi will get going on that. Tucker Carson misses the old F.F. de Klerk, one of his many heroes, and Kyle’s parents’ hero, too. If they knew where South Africa was.
I love that in order to accuse us of a racism we do not possess you have to connect us with opinions we have never expressed. π
When you have to stray so far from veridical reality to make your
point, maybe it’s time to reevaluate your basic premise.
Excellent article, thanks. I was just commenting to another about all things blm and antifa are orchestrated and this just brought it home.
This story has more reality to it.
Excellent piece from Kit. My thoughts exactly.
The race issue was the red herring. The ultimate objective was gun control. This is in the mind of the progressives and spurred on the conservatives. Gun control favours those that have evil intent of taking away others rights or stealing from the defenceless.
The right to property ownership, as voters and citizens need a place to call their own within a free society to have skin in the game; a role in the society, where they arenβt actively excluded by the powers that be; and possibly most important of all β firearm ownership.
Weapons, firearms, and self-defence are the core of the free society. Of course, all
powers use weapons and violence to get what they want. But it is no surprise that the
creation of the modern republic is linked to the proliferation of firearms. The freest the (USA) have ever been has been thanks to the muzzle of a musket or the lever-action of a
Winchester. And even pre-firearms, societies that were relatively free defended themselves with the use of weapons that didnβt require the organisation and force of
despots.
People are free when their governments are afraid of them. And they are even freer when
they do not need to rely on often incompetent police to defend them from thugs and
criminals.Look at all the countries currently terrorising their citizens and taking away their rights on orders from an unelected supranational organisation the UN.
The UK, Australia and New Zealand are probably the worst. All have essentially disarmed their populace.
i would encourage those who don’t agree that citizens should own firearms to read this https://mises.org/wire/brief-history-repressive-regimes-and-their-gun-laws. You may think again.
Yeah, old friend, the writer Joe Bageant, a self-proclaimed ‘Redneck (but a wicked lefty writer)’, wrote about the right to keep and bears and for the same reasons being indicated here.
http://www.joebageant.org/
Utter rubbish. One thing has made people “free”, and that is power over other people. The average person living in the United States was never free, they simply lived in a state in which it was advantageous to elites to give them the perception that they were free. The instant that “freedom” needed to be scaled back, it was. This story was really about a fat, nerdy child with really inadequate parenting, who responded to a grown-up psychological operation in manner that bore out his infantilism and poor upbringing. I would love to see your example of how the lever-action Winchester kept people free, considering that it was invented at the height of the wars to subjugate natives the US, and concurrent to the explosion of wage-slave industrial capitalism in the US. Never let reality interfere with your comic-book-level world-view.
Not to threadjack but: does anyone know what eventually did happen to the Skripals? The last thing I saw said they “moved to New Zealand to start a new life”, which sounds a lot like “oh sweetie we took your dog to live on a farm in the country”.
That seems fine for the dad, but Yulia Skripal was young and presumably had friends and contacts she wouldn’t want to give up for a new life in New Zealand. The whole thing remains super sus, unless there is an update I have not heard. Does anyone know?
No β¦it does cross my mind from time to timeβ¦.especially as they had connection to that Steele dossierβ¦and they served such a useful purpose demonstrating how you can use fear very easilyβ¦.roll out 2020.
Thanks.
I wonder about this too, and I’m sorry to say I haven’t seen any updated references since the dubious claim you mention. There was also a rumor that they were being kept at some UK facility– military, I think, but it was so speculative and long ago that I disremember.
I think the question is the answer. I doubt if they’re among the living. I would think that the very aspects of Yulia’s life you mention would be seen as liabilities by their handlers.
Thus, even “benignly” placing them in what’s called the “Witness Protection Program” in the US– moving them to a distant location and providing new/false identities– would be considered too risky.
Sergei, an experienced intelligence officer and double (at least) agent, might be deemed professional enough to keep mum, but if the espionage stories I’ve seen over the years are reliable, the handlers would take measures to guarantee that Yulia would never “talk”.
Thanks.
I have to question whether the jury would have had the courage to find Rittenhouse “not guilty” if any of those shot or killed had in fact been Black. The fact that the violence was “white on white” gave them an opportunity to honestly assess the “self defense” claim. Also, as a mental exercise, I can’t help but wonder what the outcome would have been if Rittenhouse was Black? To think that justice is blind and racism wasn’t involved in the decision making process is naive at the very least.
You’re already missing the point. This article is about the parasitic presence and tentacles of the corporate media machine and their ability to social engineer the public at whim. Of course racism exists. It always has, and it always will. The idea that “reform” or “legislation” will make it disappear is exactly the game they want you invested in. A fools errand.
If he had been Black, the police would have shot him dead. On the other hand if he had shot Black people the acquittal would have caused riots.
You might want to DuckDuckGo Andrew Coffee.
It needs to be noted that the Rittenhouse victims were/are career criminals. Most of rioting anywhere typically starts with people like them. Dan Bongino, a high strung poplular pod caster that now does midday radio and Fox News, is a retired cop and secret service agent. According to him, you find those people first and grab them from the crowd and riots are prevented. Typically, they are career criminals who are pissed off at everything.
Rittenhouse, with gun in tow, was threatening their “fun” and became their target. It is no secret that Democratic policy caused this. This was about saving votes and maintaining political power. All you hear in the MSM is racism, being woke, white supremacy, privilege, etc., etc., etc.
The end justifies the means in order to save the world from climate change.
So what really happened in Glasgow? What promises did, climate czar John Kerry make? What is really in that multi-trillion dollar spending bill Congress just passed? How much much does gas cost and how much more will the cost rise?
Americans are fed up and the political climate has pretty much guaranteed that Congress will go back to the Republicans in 2022 and likely the Presidency in 2024.
Democrats are scrambling for ways to get their power back. Congress is looking for ways to overturn the Rittenhouse verdict while imposing new gun laws.
Meanwhile, most urbanites don’t realize that people without criminal records have a right to carry guns most anywhere. There are lists of places they not allowed. With training and licenses you can keep them hidden to keep from being targeted like Rittenhouse was.
Surprise surprise.
As Buford Pusser liked to say, “Walk softy and carry a big stick”.
“the political climate has pretty much guaranteed that Congress will go back to the Republicans in 2022 and likely the Presidency in 2024.”
Trump looked a certainty to win re-election… until artificial crisis and ballot-rigging got in the way. No election can be called this far out.
Actually, most riots are police riots. If those he killed were agents provocateurs, what was the goal of the police and for whose grand plan. The problem is that the prosecution blew the case. We know why. It was to sustain the basic US social structure of White supremacy, and maybe (?) to foment enough agitation to justify full police state suppression If the latter, what is the strategy of the US ruling class. Why do they want social chaos? Motive is essential for understanding. OR, What’s the point?
In Greece, I recall watching a demo in which the police were heavily present but conspicuously failed to guard one building and people in the crowd (demonstrators? Undercover cops?) then attacked it and the police then hurled gas grenades and attacked. It looked as orchestrated as a chess move.
More infantilism. Given what is known about the history of “agents provocateurs” used by the apparatus of the state on behalf of the interests of elite capital, who in their right mind would take the word of a former cop and “secret service” agent about what goes on at riots? The most violent have proven over and over again, across more than a century, to be acting on behalf of the police and/or intelligence agencies. Citing Buford Pusser just takes your comment into the realm of the yokel. As I like to say, “you’re hurtin’ for certain”. BLM and Antifa are clearly elements of a psychological operation, and that operation successfully stimulated a response in an infantile pawn like Rittenhouse.
Rev. Jesse Jackson leads chants of βNo more vigilante justiceβ in Chicago this afternoon, as protesters hold speeches against the Rittenhouse verdict in Federal Plaza.
https://twitter.com/BGOnTheScene/status/1462166366904061959
βThe only solution is Communist revolutionβ chants here at Chicagoβs protest against the Rittenhouse verdict.
https://twitter.com/BGOnTheScene/status/1462176841649774610
The “Communist” chant didn’t appear to get much support. And I think Jackson maybe further gone than Biden.
Don’t forget that during the Ferguson, Missouri incident a few years back – which started the Black Lives Matter movement – Jesse Jackson was invited by community leaders…to please leave.
He’s been kind of the Dodo Bird of the Civil Rights Movement for quite some time. Doubtless he seeks relevance.
Sadly, over the years Jackson and Al Sharpton have increasingly come to resemble the pair of rural swindlers in Huckleberry Finn, The Duke and The Dauphin.
And nothing in Kenosha?
Sorry but this eclipse set guaranteed violenceβ¦.guns or no gunsβ¦and the media will make it more than real wherever they canβ¦just moving onto the next phase folksβ¦
“like the OJ Simpson trial”
A reminder of a few things about that manufactured psy-op:
1) The case didn’t attract much attention until that contrived car chase. Simpson’s car was a white Bronco so it was a pale horse leading a grouo of black horses like in the Book of Revelation. They like their Occult markers.
2) Every normie thinks Simpson was guilty and got away with it because he was rich. It’s a mixture of virtue-signalling they hate wife-beating and it’s what that series ‘OJ: Made in America’ told them to think. That series is a case study in how media manipulation works, how anything and everything can be twisted to a pre-determined end. I think my favourite is that Simpson’s lack of any criminal record in his youth becomes proof of his deviousness.
3) Simpson had to be taken down because he had played whitey’s system and won. Racial polarisation required that idea to be discredited. No black man was to be allowed to feel he could succeed or that he would ever be secure in his success.
4) A counter-narrative was constructed for the conspiratorial left that white supremacist cops were to blame. Mark Fuhrman (furman = neanderthal?) became their figure of hate. See the work of Stephen Singular. There’s plenty to blame the LAPD for without imagining they are secretly controlled by a group of neo-nazis.
5) Nicole Brown’s neighbour on Bundy (the name of an infamous serial killer) happened to be Carl Colby, son of CIA director William Colby.
6) Simpson was subsequently sentenced to 33 years imprisonment for armed robbery in an obviously ridiculous case. The verdict was handed down at 3.30pm.
7) Simpson is now vaccinated.
The whole Simpson farce was constructed to mirror the Rodney King case. Whitey “won” that one and was now to get the message those days were over (although Simpson’s subsequent civil trial defeat and imprisonment were to show this wasn’t really a “win” for the black man any more than BLM is). To buy that King was genuine one has to accept that one officer just happened to be called Koon – like the officer in George Floyd happened to be called Chauvin. It’s also to buy the “a passerby just happened to film… ” narrative.
The repeated patterns become easy to spot once one has realised how the playbook works. It’s also necessary to approach these things with some cold analysis and divest oneself from an emotional commitment to one side. How many people want the Rodney King case to be true because they hate the LAPD so much? Hate them for things they really did, the clue is they aren’t all over the corporate-state media.
It is funny how people who know the media are lying about subject A can swallow the mainstream narrative and even proselytise about it when it comes to subject B.
It’s a bit like MoA or CaitOz.
Last spring the entire Left switched from critics to believers when the Lord Covid appeared amidst a blinding light on the road to Damascus.
On the subject of the Rittenhouse trial, MoA has reverted to actually taking account of the facts.
So we all have our weak spots, possibly.
The one I will never forgive is Chomsky.ο»Ώ π‘ ο»Ώ
Regarding covid, MoA flipped 180 degrees between consequitive posts when it seemed that smokers appeared more likely to succumb and the disease entered Europe. MoA is a smoker.
I find it equally interesting that Drosten also went from ‘nothing much’ to ‘deadly plague’ in a short time.
The entire Left? You don’t say. I can’t wait to find out just what constitutes “the Left” in the era of “stakeholder capitalism”.
Exactly!
“Last spring the entire Left switched from critics to believers”
The entire *fake left*, God damn!
This is tiring, change the record!
Thank you for entirely forgetting to mention the black man murdered in a hail of bullets by cops, this is disingenuous bunk. Cops were slaughtering people in the streets, in their cars, in their fucking homes and getting away with it. Even the man who murdered Breanna Taylor got off.
The only one ever convicted was Chauvin because the murder was so callous and vicious. And we know from other outlets that the FBI sent in provacateurs to incite and carry out the violence.
So in what real world does a 17 year old brat get a licence to carry a fucking assault rifle? Honestly, I am so tired of this ludicrous claim of self defence, he was loaded for bear and got it.
In a world where the police stood down against rioters. Kyle was defending the shop in which he worked to help the owner. It was established at the trial that he was not allowed a pistol, but he was allowed a rifle. He only shot people who were armed and attacking him. There are plenty of articles about other trials.
If youβre tired of the self defence argument, maybe you should try looking at the evidence and using your brain. But you donβt have one clearly. The mob was out looting, burning and murdering people. This is what they have been doing for 7months straight. Police where STANDING DOWN and allowing it all to happen.
Under the law, Kyle was carrying a gun LEGALLY, unlike Grosscreuz.
Every person he shot attacked him and/or threatened to kill him (sorry, cut their heart out as Rosenbaum said) so yeah! Itβs self defence.
What is very old and tired is people like you having a schizophrenic episode, ignoring the evidence that was out on the same night for everyone to see.
You people are a circus!
Watch the evidence and then decide…
https://youtu.be/tkTnQfjRvk0
….what is also interesting is how convicted child rapists ( Rittenhouse victim no 1) and armed robbers ( George Floyd) become ‘ innocent members of the public’ when killed in controversial circumstances according to the corporate MSM….
MSM will whitewash the most despicable tyrants and denounce the truest democrats. It all depends on whether the person goes along with or opposes Deep State/Big Corp plans.
… perhaps the Jeremy Corbyn witch-hunt could be a good case study for that hypothesis…
See if you can follow the bouncing ball: BLM is a psychological operation, sharing virtually every aspect of previous “Strategy of Tension” events. As such, the “protesters” are acting as agents of the state. The individuals shot by Rittenhouse bear the hallmarks of agents provocateurs used by the state for over one hundred years. Rittenhouse is a silly little boy who was, unfortunately, permitted to have access to a military-grade firearm, and had the lack of parental oversight which resulted in him responding in a silly, little boy manner, to a complex psychological operation.
The Floyd nonsense was likewise an aspect of a massive psy-op. There is no question that Floyd was a criminal and not a hero in any way, and Chauvin was employing the same approach that police have used from time immemorial. There is an element within all police forces that engages in this behaviour, and the degree to which it occurs depends on the circumstances. Taking sides in either of these events is exactly the desired outcome of Strategy of Tension operations.
That would be Breanna Taylor who was sacked from her job as a medic after the body of her drug dealer boyfriends rival was found in the boot of her car
The same one who continued to collect his money and run packages around while he was in jail
The one who’s neighbours came out to see what the noise was when the police were knocking on her door
The same one who’s current boyfriend shot the first policeman who came through the door whilst standing behind her in the hallway
You have just proven the point the OP was making
great sentiments and grasp of the situation, Marilyn Shepherd.
https://rumble.com/vphnor-the-rittenhouse-veredict.html
The Chauvin technique was perfected by the Israelis for use against Palestinians. US cops go on freebies to Israel to train with the Israelis.
BLM/AntiFa are totally silent about that sort of thing, along with modern day actual slavery in Libya (thanks to Clinton etc) and Big Corp use of effectively slave labor in their African and South American resource extraction facilities. The minerals extracted are used in heavily in AntiFas precious mobiles and EVs. The ordinary members of AntiFa/BLM may be sincere in their concerns but their activity is directed by those with other concerns.
I’m looking for some indication in your post that “the Left” is somehow behind this Strategy of Tension operation serves to benefit only elite capital. I can’t find it, but maybe that’s just me.
The “left” isn’t behind it, they are its ideological platform, its front. What constitutes the left today are the useful idiots for the implementation of the new Globocap bio-security state.
“They are its ideological platform”? What aspect of identitarian psychological operations could, in any way, be construed as the “left”? If there’s one thing the big bad Red boogeyman was known for, it was the relentless elimination of individual identities rooted in race, religion and gender.
Did you just wake up from cryogenic sleep? The “left” as you seem to define it hasn’t really existed since the 1930’s.
The “Anti-Vaxxer” is a media construction. If it bears any relation to a real person – well that’s just coincidental – Likewise “A Minority” is a media construction.
Such ideological constructions, necessary for propaganda narratives, are impelled on the media by the need “If they dont exist, they will have to be invented.”
In media-speak ‘a minority’ is a function within a narrative, it doesnt have to really exist.
great job, les.
As bad and as propagandistic as the media is, I’m not sure everything they come up with – like “A Minority” – is part of an overall narrative. We know for a fact they have to continually titillate their audience or people will simply tune in Jeopardy or Wheel of Fortune instead of the news.
Americans (and probably all Westerners) have very little interest in news per se. News must have an “angle” or it’s ignored.
During the 1970s, when workers had some union muscle and seemed to always be revolting: “news” reports of striking workers ALWAYS claimed the workers were being urged-on, manipulated, and so on, by a small minority of ‘militant’ unionists/union officials…. The story was ALWAYS about the fictitious small minority behind the troubles etc, never about the actual grievances, always denying that workers could/did decide their own action…i
Over the past 8 weeks the percentage of injected in NSW went from 80% when the 106 day siege was lifted, to, within a month, 90%, and 95% was projected to be arrived at “soon” (These figures: front page The Australian Saturday 13 November 2021)… The percentages were BUNK. The point of the exercise was to create the perception – for the reader -that there is only a very small minority of hold-outs….
The way for the state to ensure that the vaxxed remain largely indifferent to the hold-outs being mistreated, forcibly removed to ‘detention’ centres, etc, is for them to be perceived as a small minority… Contrary to the reigning belief, WE are not sympathetic towards minorities (If WE were the state would not have to impose tolerance)…
The first question to ask is “why was the ‘story’ considered front page “news” ?” There were two ‘messages’ implicit in it. One was that not only was Australia in the top ten countries about to reach 100% vaxxed, but could achieve a World First by beating all other contenders (Who didnt know they were in a race against us) (TV adverts in NSW urge the vaxxed to Give Themselves a Pat On The Back for their achievement of so many submitting to the pressure to get vaxxed !!!) Australians love being told they’d achieved a “World First”… We lap it up !!
The other implicit message: It Is UnAustralian to Be Unvaxxed…
The percentage figures were central to the creation of “a minority“, and like the ‘handful of union militants’ that used to ‘hold the economy to ransom’ such media inventions are the lynchpins to any ideological narrative – that ‘legitimises’ state treatments of ‘threats to society’…

Campaign Sign Shows Virginia Candidate With Assault-Style Rifle
May 17, 2021
NBC Washington
Northern Virginia Bureau Chief Julie Carey reports on a controversial campaign sign featuring GOP lieutenant governor candidate Winsome Sears. (Correction: Dan Helmer was in the Army and is currently in the Army Reserve.)
Top Comment
Seth Connell (2 weeks ago): “Assault style” doesn’t exist. Assault is an action, not a description of an inanimate object.
Assault is absolutely a description of an inanimate object if the word is used in that context. In this case the term was applied, in German, to the original weapon that embodied the principle aspects of intermediate cartridge size, reduced overall length in comparison with “battle rifles”, and selective rate of fire. Only a pedant could argue that any of these AR-15 derivations are not “assault style”, regardless of the capacity, or lack of, for selective fire in any given model. I think that Lieutenant Governor-elect Sears represents the great leap our society has taken, to the point that a female person of colour can be a dipshit redneck con artist, just like a white man.
As I said, you’re part of an ever shrinking demographic.
I don’t follow corporate media, but still, that was a very good try.
Gates and Soros supplied the funding for the bricks delivered by a Gates owned company in many cities.
Uh, evidence, bull (ffs it’s already in your name).
I avoided the coverage of this trial from Day 1. Because the whole thing reeked to high heaven.
I just arrived back from the Melbourne freedom rally. Massive crowd, estimated at around 300,000-350,000. Well done Victoria and keep up the great work.
Time for a cold beer.
I stayed at my daughters place in Melbourne overnight. I haven’t seen my daughter in well over twelve months so it was a good day and night all round.
Any video clips to cheer us up?
I saw looting in Kenosha, as in other US towns. I saw that the MSM & co created a climate that condoned that, stopping police from doing their jobs. Trump was president then, so anything was a go for the Establishment, not only HRC, Perkins Coie but also the FBI & DOJ + MSM.
This kind of incident was bound to happen, with person X,Y or Z shooting someone dead during looting. Lots of blame to go around, starting with HRC.
Nothing to do with Left vs Right and everything with Top vs the Rest. Buffoon Trump was rich but not part of the Top club, so had to be ousted. Fake Russiagate was the amateur plot but with the MSM in their pockets the Establisment could get away with anything, including murder.
Indeed, but the bottom line there is no universe where a punk 17 year old gets a licence for an AR15 and loaded for bear crosses state borders and kills people. FFS people have lost their minds over entirely the wrong thing.
Nothing he did was unlawful. In case you didn’t notice, the case was about self-defence, not about “punks” “crossing state borders”.
So crazy that anyone thinks βcrossing state bordersβ is a big deal. That is totally msm speak. This is still a βkinda freeβ country and traveling from one city to another is still permissible.
exactly, marilyn, the kid shouldn’t have been strapped and out ‘protecting’ the shopkeepers. He’s a kid. Kids have no standing when it comes to adult affairs, like politics. Then again, lots of folks think it’s perfectly acceptable, appropriate and even necessary to involve their kids in adult problems. US justice system has a very hard time understanding that concept, which may go a long ways to explaining why the US of A is so corrupt and depraved.
Exactly. He’s only 17. So it’s okay to try to kill him – but child molesting if someone tries to have sex with him. Go figure.
We send kids of 18 to wars. While I do agree a 17 year old shouldn’t be walking around any city with a loaded AR, an 18 year old in a war zone carrying one is not only condoned but celebrated as a hero…
And what’s that got to do with adults thinking it’s okay for a child to be patrolling the streets, strapped and loaded for bear, or is it bare?
I’ll answer my own question: nothing.
Personally I think the kid got his rocks off, playing army or cop and then the shit got real.
How do you know he’s a punk?
Does he have a record of crime longer than his arm and no forwarding address?
If not, he’s no punk.
The right to bear arms in america is the only thing keeping all american’s free from tyranny. Most ‘shooters’ are FBI stooges playing out a NWO narrative which is full of holes.
‘How many people reading this think that Kyle Rittenhouse is a white supremacist who shot three black people? Probably more than a few.’ – god, I would hope more people reading OffG would be aware of those lies – but then I suppose a goodly number here are still Trump haters and think Fox is some far-right crazies, so would never get exposed to a much more truthful view of what is going on in the US – very odd, but over the last decade or so all of the corporate press outlets have gone full deep state, and Fox has moved in to take the place of ‘let’s try some actual journalism’ – a lot of very great people on Fox, I’d be very happy to have a conversation with, while the people on CNN, MSNBC, etc are generally extremely repulsive, people you’d want to find a bottle of hand sanitizer if you ever had to be near them ..
Geez could you have any more smug assumptions βbout us ?

all the worlds a stage…
the video footage is staged, the trial is staged, you are watching a hollywood production, rittenhouse is an actor, the jurors are actors, the shooting “victims” are actors, its all fake folks.
george floyd is a fictional character, played by nba player steven jackson, even calls him his twin, shows up at rallys and gives speeches. use your critical thinking

I definitely agree this could be true. Everything about it seems too pat.
Everything from the shooter being a clean cut βteenagerβ to his carrying a gun -the AR15- which has such a stigma in this country.
To a drone conveniently flying over making videos of Kyle before he even fired a shot, to some of the scenes looking choreographed, the chase scene in particularβespecially the man who kicked him in the head. βJump kick manβ as he became known.
Jump kick man, along with all the βvictimsβ having criminal records… made me wonder the odds of that.
A protest is scheduled in Kenosha for this afternoon.
https://medium.com/navigating-life/the-truth-about-the-kyle-rittenhouse-shooting-in-kenosha-1df928b75cb4
Hell, I thought this was about O.J. Just another in a long line of media spectacles, nothing new. Now we’ll move on after a couple nights of reporting unrest in Kenosha. Meanwhile, back at the ranch.
It really doesn’t matter because the real enemy is still winning.
But this has its own slant… referring to Rittenhouse as βthe boy,β and leaning toward his defense. Obviously, the real story here is that RACISM in the U.S. of A (yes, this trial was ultimately all about race), once again gets shunted aside as worthy of justice, endless study, and media and social focus. And hey, the Left can think and chew gum at the same time because they have and do now address the frightening powers of monopolyβ & racism, and often in conjunction with one another.
WEll if you are going with boy, why was he carrying a very adult weapon in a different state that had nothing to do with him.
His dad lives in Kenosha we learned and the distance between his momβs home in far northern Illinois and Kenosha in southern Wisconsin is 20 miles.
That statement is not true…see

Thanks again, marilyn for shining light on the subject at hand.
He worked there, and had friends and family, including his father, who lived there.
It’s like the epidemic of cops slaughtering black people had nothing to do with it. Now Chauvin was rightly convicted of a cold blooded murder, but the black lad Noor, a rookie, did not murder the white Australian woman in spite of the bleating by her family. Murder was always a massive stretch that would not have happened if he had been white. Thankfully the appeals court dropped it to the rightful manslaughter.
How many slugs did Noor pump into an unarmed woman in a nightdress?And he had to lean over ,if my memory serves me right ,in order to do it.
Marilyn, without wanting to sound patronising, can I suggest you stop rage-posting for the moment and start researching a bit?
Much like the COVID-19 “pandemic”, the “epidemic of cops slaughtering black people” exists only in the MSM.
In 2020 there were 1,021 killings by police in the US. 457 of the victims were white, 241 were black.
https://www.statista.com/statistics/585152/people-shot-to-death-by-us-police-by-race/
How many of those 1,021 police killings did you get to hear about in the MSM? And for what purpose?
The real “epidemic” is the murder of young black men by other black men, as can be seen by an examination of the FBI’s crime stats.
https://ucr.fbi.gov/crime-in-the-u.s/2019/crime-in-the-u.s.-2019/topic-pages/tables/table-43
But this inconvenient truth does not fit with the government’s narrative, and so the media ignores it.
It’s taken nearly 4 days for this comment to be “spam-checked” and “approved” – in which time the conversation has moved on
there must be a better way offG?
How was this ultimately about racism?
This trial was nothing about race. Ridiculous.
