The verdict just came in for this 18-year-old kid and like most everyone on our side I am greatly relieved that at least for now, this kid\u2019s life has been given back to him.\u00a0 It\u2019s still possible that Merrick Garland and the rest of the vampires in the Biden Justice Department may still decide to persecute him under some bogus civil rights charade but maybe their plate is full right now persecuting the poor bastards from Jan. 6th<\/sup> and the school parents in Virginia.\u00a0 But if he is free and clear what is the takeaway we have from this incident?<\/p>\n

Well, for me the takeaway is that the Antifa\/BLM organization is a paramilitary group that has weapons and tactics that can only be resisted by individuals armed and trained to do so.\u00a0 Which tells me that the only way to avoid being subject to their attacks and harassment is to live in a jurisdiction where the police will arrest them if they riot.\u00a0 That was Kyle Rittenhouse\u2019s mistake.\u00a0 He assumed that because he was heavily armed and fairly proficient with his weapon that he would be immune from harassment by the protestors.\u00a0 That mistake could have cost him his life either at the scene or later in a court of law.\u00a0 He was only saved by luck, \u00a0the copious video evidence of his actions being self-defense, the skill of his attorney to portray this evidence clearly and convincingly and the fact that he had an honest judge.<\/p>\n

As far as I know, Florida is the only state that has passed laws to protect its citizens against municipal governments that decide to empower BLM rioters by handcuffing the police.\u00a0 But that is the only way to prevent places like Atlanta, St. Louis, Houston and all the other blue cities in red states from harming red state citizens.\u00a0 So, short of moving to Florida the strategy is living far enough from a blue city in a red state to avoid a barbarian invasion.<\/p>\n

And honestly that\u2019s the only lesson.\u00a0 Anyone who attempts to do what Rittenhouse did will end up no better than he did and most probably a whole lot worse.\u00a0 This problem can only be addressed by the united front of a whole community.\u00a0 And that doesn\u2019t exist in places like Wisconsin or Virginia and certainly not in New York or California.\u00a0 In places like that BLM is the legitimate militia.\u00a0 They are recognized to have the right to burn, loot and kill people who happen to be in the path of their swarm.\u00a0 Maybe someday a counterforce will emerge on its own and challenge BLM and its protectors but that is far in the future.\u00a0 That won\u2019t happen until the people being attacked have nothing to lose and just rise up against their tormentors.\u00a0 Maybe that\u2019ll be in California.\u00a0 Probably it\u2019ll be the Hispanic people living in areas adjacent to the inner-city no-go zones.\u00a0 When no one else will help them, they\u2019ll pay protection money to the gangs and the gangs will handle the swarm by fighting fire with fire.<\/p>\n

But that won\u2019t be of any help to us.\u00a0 Our lives are wrapped up in the fabric of civilized society and so we will have to live where that society still exists.\u00a0 So that\u2019s my takeaway from the Rittenhouse story.\u00a0 Live where the majority of people will support the police protecting citizens from barbarians.\u00a0 It\u2019s a cautionary tale and an object lesson about where not to live.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
