KENOSHA, WISCONSIN - NOVEMBER 03: Judge Bruce Schroeder explains why audio can't be heard by the jury in a video produced by "The Rundown Live" during the Kyle Rittenhouse trial at the Kenosha County Courthouse on November 3, 2021 in Kenosha, Wisconsin. Rittenhouse shot three demonstrators, killing two of them, during a night of unrest that erupted in Kenosha after a police officer shot Jacob Blake seven times in the back while police attempted to arrest him in August 2020. Rittenhouse, from Antioch, Illinois, was 17 at the time of the shooting and armed with an assault rifle. Rittenhouse faces counts of felony homicide and felony attempted homicide.

Deleted Tweet removed and replaced with this:

So the only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun (or no gun), unless the good guy gets shot in which case the bad guy was just acting in self defense. Do I have this right?

Justice denied is a body blow to our national psyche. On trial was not only a killer, but a system that continues to kill.

Today that system defeated true justice, once again. But mark these words: We will never stop fighting for what is right and just.

Absolutely right, George.
