Kyle Rittenhouse has walked free. Now it’s open season on protesters

[McKnight55]

In essence, the Rittenhouse ruling has created a kind of “stand your ground” law for the whole country. White people now have the apparent right to travel around the country, heavily armed, and use violence to protect the country from whatever and whoever they believe to be threatening to it. Given the feverish paranoia and racism that has captured a sizeable minority of white people in the US these days, this is a recipe for disaster.

Now this little gem.

The most worrying effect of this verdict may be this: giving rightwing vigilantes a legal precedent to take up arms against anyone they consider a threat – which pretty much runs from anti-fascists to so-called Rinos (Republicans in Name Only) and includes almost all people of color – means it is now open hunting season on progressive protesters

I assume this is the progressive narrative? I don't watch the MSM programs.

Exhibit One: The white supremacist who drove his car into all those black people in Waukesha, Wisconsin.

These people can protest six days a week and including sunday.

Just leave me and mine the f alone.

Seems the one fact they somehow keep overlooking is that Kyle shot 3 white people.

Of course, that is foolishness, but I would be OK if some people actually believed it.

"Hey, SK8RBOI, want to go to the big protest tonight and start some fires?"
"Uh, I heard it's open season on progressive protesters, and there will be hundreds of racist oppressors with AR47s picking us off. No thanks; I think I will stay home and play Call of Duty."

The people part is open to interpretation.
