Glaude: If Rittenhouse Was Black and Killed White Protesters, They Would Be Called Victims
Breitbart ^ | 10/27/2021 | Pam Key

Posted on 10/27/2021 1:15:12 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Wednesday on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” Princeton University professor and network contributor Eddie Glaude, Jr. said that the judge who decided the deceased should not be called victims during the trial of Kyle Rittenhouse shows the criminal justice system has bias.

Co-host Mika Brzezinski said, “The judge in the trial of Kyle Rittenhouse, the teenager who shot and killed two protesters last year in Kenosha, Wisconsin, during a protest against police brutality has ruled prosecutors cannot refer to the people he killed as victims. But the defense is allowed to call them arsonists or looters, or rioters. While laying the ground rules for the upcoming trial, Judge Bruce Schroeder said, ‘The word victim is a loaded word. And I think alleged victim is a cousin to it. Rittenhouse faces multiple felony charges of homicide and recklessly endangering the safety of others, among other charges. He has pleaded not guilty to all charges. The incident occurred after a white Kenosha police officer shot and injured a black man named Jacob Blake as he was attempting to enter his car. Blake, who had a warrant out for his arrest, survived but was paralyzed from the waist down. The shooting led to multiple nights of protests which turned destructive. Rittenhouse said he went to the demonstrations to help protect businesses from looters when he was attacked and that he acted in self-defense. The trial is scheduled to begin on Monday. Eddie Glaude, last time I checked, someone who is shot dead is a victim.”

And if a black guy gets killed while committing a robbery or assault, he will be called a victim instead of a perp. In some cases, they are elevated to sainthood, as in the cases of St. Trayvon of Purple Drank and “Big Mike” Brown, the Gentle Giant.

He’s either a liar or hasn’t been paying attention to events in the USA the last 40 years.

Kyle did what he had to do to keep from being counted as a covid death.

We would have never heard of this case had the races been reversed.

If Kyle were black, this wouldn’t be going to trial.

Damn Eddie... Racist much?

Kyle was White and the idiot rioters he shot were ALSO White. Race plays ZERO part here.

If Eddie Glaude Jr. happened to be a white professor, he’d still be a fool.

If they were trying to kill the Black man, I’d be his
champion, just exactly as I am for Kyle.

If Rittenhouse were black, no charges would have been filed.
