MSNBC host Joy Reid made the case that the Kyle Rittenhouse acquittal has a historic precedent that goes back to the days of slavery.
Appearing on her own show as a guest, Reid began by saying she was “not at all surprised” by the Rittenhouse verdict, which she said was “expected.”
“What we need to worry about is we have nothing in place legally. We have nothing in place culturally or socially to stop the next group of White nationalists, Proud Boys MAGA people, whoever they want to take from this burden what they want, and to use it as permission to attack Black Lives Matter,” Reid later added. “And Black Lives Matter and just Black people as we just saw. Mr. Huber and Mr. Rosenbaum are White, they’re Jewish. They are also victims and easily make victims because anyone who supports Black Lives Matter should be very afraid tonight.”
