Celebrities, Politicians, and News Media Beclown Selves After Rittenhouse Acquittal

[ad_1]

 

Despite his acquittal on murder and all other counts, Whoopi Goldberg told her co-hosts on ABC’s “The View” on Monday that she felt Kyle Rittenhouse “murdered” two men last year, at violent skirmishes after a Black Lives Matter demonstration and destructive protests in Kenosha, WI. Rittenhouse shot and killed two individuals and wounded a third after offering medical attention to many others, and patrolling another area that had been vandalized.

 

 

“Let me show you what got to me, the thing no one was really talking about,” Goldberg said. “The father of Anthony Huber, one of the young men shot and killed by Rittenhouse, puts things into perspective for me at least and on CNN.” During the interview she shared, John Huber said, “You know that guy gets to run free a now a hero. This is my son right here. This is Anthony. We lost our son. And there’s no justice for our family and no closure. There wasn’t going justice in that Kenosha court with that judge.”

 

 

Goldberg said, “He wasn’t doing anything. Was trying — he saw an active shooter. He saw someone get shot. He thought he was doing the right thing. So even all the excuses in the world does not change the fact that three people were shot. Two people were murdered. To me, it’s murder. I’m sorry. I’ll never forget that man.”

 

That “man” is none other than Anthony Huber who was fatally shot after chasing and attacking Kyle Rittenhouse on August 25, 2020 What Goldberg fails to mention was that Anthony Huber was a convicted felon with a violent past. He had a criminal history including once threatening to “gut” his brother “like a pig” while holding a butcher’s knife to his stomach. Below is but a portion of his lengthy record of violence.

 

 

Not only does Whoopie expect you to believe he chased Rittenhouse and smacked him with his skateboard in a failed effort to try to heroically stop Rittenhouse from continuing his “mass shooting spree,” but that Huber was a hero.

 

As for Huber’s father, John, here is a video segment at the end of a nearly hour-long hearing, where Huber wanted Rittenhouse’s bond raised. The relevant portion of the video is embedded below, where you can see Huber’s father in the lower right, wearing a black mask while alone on Zoom, flipping the bird to the judge and Kyle Rittenhouse. He also appeared to be making angry comments, but he was muted and we couldn’t determine what he was saying. We know he’s probably in mourning, but come on.

 

 

Whoopie and her fellow travelers were not alone in their misguided defense of the dead. Here’s Reese Witherspoon proving she isn’t quite as legally savvy as her ‘Elle Woods’ character.

 

 

For the record, crossing state lines is not a crime and is not relevant to one’s right to defend one’s life from rioters who try to take your firearm.  It’s a free country and we can all go where we want. Rittenhouse lived about a mile from the state line. He worked in Kenosha, and his dad lived there. Furthermore, he was guarding a small business and providing medical care for the injured, while being armed for his own protection. One hit him with a skateboard, and another pointed a pistol at him.   

 

Disney, Marvel and Star Wars actors certainly weren’t immune to the sweet smell of gaslight either. Up first, we have Pedro Pascal, the star of Disney’s The Mandalorian. This is the Star Wars actor that should’ve been fired for bad Twitter takes, not Gina Carano.

 

 

Here’s Marvel Studios’ Avengers actor Mark Ruffalo, who can always be counted on to provide a spicy communist’s version of events.

 

 

And not to be outdone by her older Disney veterans, here’s the next Snow White live-action actress giving it her best preferred pronouns effort, with some extra racism thrown in for good measure.

 

And for the record, here is the convicted child rapist Ruffalo is referring to affectionately with the pet name “JoJo” earlier on the night of his death, using the n-word and threatening armed men to shoot him. This is the person whose death these Hollywood actors are mourning.

 

 

The Pima County AZ Clerk of Courts has also confirmed that Joseph ‘JoJo’ Rosenbaum (the white racist featured in the embedded video above) was charged by a grand jury with 11 counts of child molestation and inappropriate sexual activity around children, including anal rape. The victims were five boys ranging in age from nine to 11 years old. So not only was he a virulent racist with violent tendencies, but he also anally raped little boys. No wonder pedoland, I mean Hollywood, is mourning his death after a jury of Kyle Rittenhouse’s peers acquitted him for acting in self-defense.

 

Even formerly cool rock bands got in on the act, somehow conflating these violent provocateurs who were destroying the city with Black Lives Matter freedom fighters fighting for righteousness. This is a bad flex. Just call them ‘Rage Against Facts & Reason’

 

 

Other dumb modern bands were not very impressive either. Does these group not understand that everyone involved was white?

 

 

It’s a good thing he was carrying or he would be dead and none of these celebrities would care. Neither would the fake news media.

 

 

And of course, no progressive politician was going to let this crisis go to waste.

 

 

 

Does she really expect us to believe she thinks those guys Rittenhouse shot were “protestors”? And without fail, even a few washed up comic book creators got in on the act with their misinformed hot takes. 

 

 

Breitbart News noted that many other celebrities including Sophia Bush, Alyssa Milano, Bette Midler, and Josh Gad have also lamented Rittenhouse’s acquittal, many calling it a victory for “white supremacy.”

 

While anyone can reasonably criticize Rittenhouse’s decision to come to Kenosha and allow himself to become isolated from his fellow compatriots and citizens, putting himself in a position where shooting was his only alternative. No one has to consider him a model of civic responsibility for aligning himself with what amounted to a vigilante group after the local police proved they were either unwilling or unable to reign in the violent rioters and looters. But we must all remember that a court of law acquitted Rittenhouse based on the evidence, and the persons he killed were men with criminal histories who were behaving exactly how we would expect violent felons to behave. They were not helpless victims and should not be considered “heroes” by any stretch of the imagination. They each made very the deliberate decision to attack a man who was carrying a gun, and they were shot – end of story.
