Over the weekend, Maria Shriver wrote on Twitter, "I’m trying to take a beat to digest the Rittenhouse verdict. My son just asked me how it’s possible that he didn’t get charged for anything. How is that possible? I don’t have an answer for him."

It's pretty stunning that she’s an NBC anchor and she “doesn’t have an answer.”

Try this:

(1) He WAS charged with six counts. That thing that just finished was his trial.

(2) A jury of his peers found him not guilty.

(3) Why? The defense argued he was engaged in self-defense.

(4) What facts support self defense?
- the three people shot all chased him, assaulted him and/or tried to grab his gun
- ALL THREE were convicted felons (one served 15 years for child molesting)
- the defense argued Rittenhouse feared for his life

(5) You might personally disagree, but the jury heard evidence & presumably concluded he was acting to defend himself from what he reasonably perceived to be an imminent threat to his life.

(6) Also, ALL THREE of the people shot were White (contrary to false media reports).

(7) Generally “white supremacists” don’t shoot White people.

(8) Numerous Dem politicians & corporate media outlets (including your employer and especially MSNBC) recklessly alleged he was a white supremacist.

(9) NO evidence was adduced at trial to support that claim.

(10) A whole bunch of those corrupt media outlets are now retaining defamation lawyers, because they’re ALL about to get sued—and the liability could well be massive.

I hope that helps.
