Although no one has said it and I have expressed it as concern during jury deliberations the importance of this case. I would like to take the time to personally thank Kyle Rittenhouse for reaffirming once again our civil liberties in this landmark case WI v. Rittenhouse.
I feel somewhat comfortable in the knowledge that, Kyle Rittenhouse through no great sacrifice of his own afforded others, as many have before him a reaffirmation of;
The Second Amendment - Right to Bear Arms, A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed
The Right of self-defense, The right of self-defense is the right for people to use reasonable or defensive force, for the purpose of defending one's own life or the lives of others, including –in certain circumstances– the use of deadly force
Freedom of movement, mobility rights, or the right to travel is a human rights concept encompassing the right of individuals to travel from place to place within the territory of a country
The Freedom of Association, the right to expressive association refers to the right of people to associate together for expressive purposes - often for political purposes
And I can think of no better place than thehighroad. I don't know how many others here might feel if they found themselves with such clear cut video evidence of self defense and the jury then convicted them because it was politically expedient to do so, because they should have stayed home, or they shouldn't have associated with dummies, or they shouldn't have defended themselves when a fist fight would be ok, or they were unarmed because..... why would they carrying a deadly weapon in the first place.
