With the conclusion of this trial, we are getting calls from the press and questions from our members about where we as a club stand on this trial.
This verdict is more a reflection on the justice system and the law, including prosecutorial incompetence, than a validation of Rittenhouse and his actions, which were deplorable.
We wish the justice system worked as well for young men of color, who, in the exact same situation, would not have ever even gotten to trial, which is why the protest was happening in the first place.
