This country was built on the idea of white men had a particular kind of freedom and a particular kind of citizenship that only they have,\u201d she said. Gun rights, enshrined in the Second Amendment, allegedly gave \u201cslave catchers\u201d and other malefactors \u201cthe right to inflict violence in the name of protecting property. That\u2019s, like, the foundational creation of the United States.\u201d6. \u201cThe poster child for reactionary white men\u201dMSNBC guests, as well as hosts, took turns belittling Kyle Rittenhouse, while insisting the right to self-defense will lead to murder.\u201c\u2026 [M]ake no mistake, Rittenhouse will be the poster child for reactionary white men who want to take the law in their own hands, who want to bring assault weapons to Black Lives Matter protests, and who think that violence is a legitimate form of political discourse,\u201d said MSNBC legal analyst Paul Butler on \u201cThe ReidOut\u201d hours after the teenager\u2019s acquittal on all charges.\u201cIn the eyes of the law, Rittenhouse is now actually the victim of the three men who he shot, even though the evidence suggest[s] that Rittenhouse went to Kenosha spoiling for a fight,\u201d he said. \u201cI think we should be troubled that other people who want to take the law into their own hands might view this verdict as an invitation.\u201dAs offensive as these comments were, they are but a sample of the vitriol poured out 24\/7 on cable news networks like MSNBC and its lower-rated competitor, CNN.Bear in mind, these media assaults come after weeks of similar insults, assaults, and imputations against the teenager. As I noted, even before the verdict:CNN posted\u00a0an article stating that Kyle Rittenhouse \u201crepresents the epitome of [w]hite privilege in America run amok\u201d;Elie Mystal branded Judge Bruce Schroeder \u201ca biased, racist judge\u201d; andMSNBC\u2019s ReidOut blog rated Kyle Rittenhouse\u2019s breakdown on the witness stand as \u201cwhite crocodile tears.\u201dThe legal system backed Kyle Rittenhouse when he defended himself against his attackers once before. Perhaps it will smile on him again if he files a defamation lawsuit against his assailants in the drive-by media.Related: \u2018The Epitome Of White Privilege\u2019: The Media\u2019s Worst Reactions To The Kyle Rittenhouse TrialThe views expressed in this piece are the author\u2019s own and do not necessarily represent those of The Daily Wire.The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
