The impact of the Rittenhouse issue is not the young man, the criminals he shot (killed), the riot itself, the lack of law enforcement, or any petty charge surmounted by the prosecution. It is the fact a gun was used to protect a law-abiding citizen in the exact manner for which that weapon was designed. It’s a nationwide exhibition that the Second Amendment works.
Every year, thousands of individuals stop crimes or save lives with judiciously used firearms, but those proper and advantageous uses are not aired or printed. Democrats and lefties work hard to hide the wisdom of a properly armed citizenry. Such a citizenry is hard to force into socialism or communism.
Disbanding local police forces and replacing them with a Brown Shirt national police force; overtaking children’s education until government nurseries control children’s care and mentality from the moment of birth; obliterating all free presses in favor of unified, government-aligned, single-view news media; controlling the economy of the underclass; controlling family and social unity, public mobility, and eventually all divergent thought, is the leftist Democrat aim.
But it first demands the disarmament of every person in the U.S. No arms, no insurrection, no Rittenhouses, no anything.
Totalitarianism!
