One Twitter user wrote: “No justice, again. #JacobBlake was shot 7 times by a police officer and they let that officer off… Rittenhouse is guilty no matter what the verdict.”
Another person tweeted: “White Priviledge is reaI.”
And a third user wrote: “Would Kyle Rittenhouse have been found not guilty if he was black?”
No justice, again. #JacobBlake was shot 7 times by a police officer and they let that officer off. So, there’s no justice. Kyle Rittenhouse killed Anthony Huber, 26, and Joseph Rosenbaum, 36, and injured Gaige Grosskreutz, now 27. Rittenhouse is guilty no matter what the verdict.

How delusional must one be to consider a not guilty verdict, any not guilty verdict, a miscarriage of justice?! #KyleRittenhouse
