One of the most high-profile court cases of 2021 concluded last Friday when a jury acquitted Kyle Rittenhouse of all charges. Following his release, Rittenhouse spoke with Fox News’ Tucker Carlson for a Monday night interview.

Preview clips from the interview show Rittenhouse affirming what he has alleged all along: that he is “not a racist person.”

In the preview, Rittenhouse adds:

“I support the BLM movement. I support peacefully demonstrating. This case has nothing to do with race. It never had anything to do with race. It had to do with the right to self-defense.”

Watch:

Many do not agree with Rittenhouse’s claims. 

A Wisconsin newspaper referred to the court decision in the Rittenhouse case as “chilling,” adding, it will “embolden militant people to take the law into their own hands.”

The 2nd News reports that Hollywood celebrities are suffering from PTSD because of the Rittenhouse verdict.

In a Twitter post, Sophia Bush associated Rittenhouse with the Proud Boys and said the verdict was “an abomination,” adding, “this is white supremacy in action.”

“So…the white guy goes free. Is that the message?” lamented Stephen King.

Joy Reid took to TikTok to voice her rage, saying, “In America, there’s a thing about both white vigilantism and white tears, particularly male white tears… that’s what Karens are right? They Karen out and then as soon as they get caught, it’s bring the waterworks.”

Reid added, “And they can get away with that too.”

Conservative commentator Leo Terrell referred to Reid’s rant as racist when speaking on Fox News. 

Speaking about the legal process, Rittenhouse said:

“I believe there needs to be change. I believe there’s a lot of prosecutorial misconduct, not just in my case, but in other cases. And it’s just amazing to see how much a prosecutor can take advantage of somebody.”

Rittenhouse’s statements echo Judge Schroeder’s rebuke of the prosecution team for unprofessional conduct, as seen on a widely-circulated video posted to Twitter.

Many fear that the nation is polarized and the judicial system is broken. 

Others, like Civil Rights Attorney Leo Terrell, have hope and take notice when good things happen. On Friday, Terrell said, “I’m very glad that justice prevailed.”
