"Rittenhouse Verdict Should Teach us not to trust instant analysis and Agenda Driven Reporting."

 

    You Will see my Monday Music Beneath this Posting.

 I snagged this off the NY Post editorial Page, I was kinda surprised to see it, but I agree with it, a lot of drama could have been avoided if the Legacy Media had waited for the facts to play out rather than run with an agenda that inflamed a lot of drama that got people killed and caused millions of dollars of property damage, I would love to find a way for some of these muckrakers to get charged with "inciting a riot" for the irresponsible reporting.  I really want to see Kyle go after the Media with lawsuits for slander because his life will never be the same, there will always be people gunning for him to "right the wrongs of Kenosha"

This is an example of the twitter post that I have seen,  and she is kinda mild for some of the vitriol that I have seen, you want to see what the Left thinks of you? go on twitter and Tiktok and you will learn, I hate wading through that sewer but forwarned is forearmed.  Also there was a Rapper that drove his SUV through a Christmas Parade and right now it is a tossup if it is the "Religion of Pieces" making an appearance, Driving through Christmas Parades is their "Thing" and they did it a few more times since that post, or it could be blowback to the Rittonhouse Verdict.  The fact is that there is no news released to who the guy is by the mainstream media tells me that it "Ain't a white guy", if it was, they would be trumpeting it long and wide because it supports "Da Narrative".

  Well Anyway here is the New York Post Editorial.

Not guilty on all counts: That verdict comes as no surprise to anyone who’d paid close attention to the Kyle Rittenhouse trial but may shock those who relied on horrifically biased media accounts.

Nearly all the early media tropes proved false: He didn’t bring the gun across state lines; he had major roots in Kenosha including his day job and much of his family. He wasn’t a militia-wannabe but an aspiring cop/firefighter/EMT.

Absolutely nothing suggests he was a “white supremacist,” as no less than Joe Biden claimed right before last year’s election.

And the men he shot were all attacking him when he pulled the trigger; all were white, and at least two had histories of violence.

None of this makes him a “patriot,” as ideologues on the other side insist. But the evidence for self-defense was rock-solid.

Some refuse to admit that. Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers (D.) released a bizarre statement that “no verdict will be able to bring back the lives” of the two men Rittenhouse killed, nor “heal the wounds” of the Jacob Blake shooting that triggered the riots nor remove the state’s need to work toward “equity.” Translation: I’m on your side, rioters: Please don’t riot again.

New York pols also treated the verdict as some kind of injustice, including Mayor de Blasio, who wants to free every criminal in Rikers but called the Rittenhouse decision “disgusting and it sends a horrible message to this country.”  

Maybe that’s because the haters stuck to their narrative for months, even as the trial exposed the core facts.

The worst — MSNBC’s Joy Reid, for one — will never let it go. You can see them practically begging for there to be riots, an incredibly irresponsible position for Kenosha and the nation. Let’s hope no one listens to them.

The rank, politicized distortions of fact here — and in so many other recent incidents — should teach everyone once and for all not to trust instant analysis or agenda-driven reporting. When the facts played out via the proper judicial process, common sense and truth prevailed.

May that lesson sink in widely, not least with the man in charge of upholding America’s institutions and leading the nation to unity.
