2020 Reboot: Rittenhouse Verdict Sends Black Athletes Into Racism Overload

It’s 2020 and déjà vu all over again. White supremacy Kool-Aid is being abused again by athletes who were misled and corrupted by President Joe Biden.  False narratives over the Kyle Rittenhouse verdict are pushing them over the edge, just as the Jacob Blake incident did a year ago. They would prefer that the judge or jury had executed an innocent white man.

President Obama and the media had called the defendant a “white supremacist,” which fueled outrage and led many to believe that the people he shot were African-American.

Yahoo Sports reported that many of the athletes who boycotted professional games last year after the Jacob Blake shooting are lashing out at Rittenhouse and the verdict. No wonder. Yahoo’s Cassandra Negley framed her story as Rittenhouse shooting at demonstrators during last year’s riots in Kenosha, Wisconsin. After reviewing all evidence, the jury acquitted Rittenhouse all wrongdoing charges.

Bubba Wallace, a black NASCAR racer (in photograph above) who once claimed a garage door opening rope was a noose intended as a threat because of his race, tweeted the common theme that Rittenhouse was acquitted because he’s white: “Ha, let the boy be black and it would’ve been life…hell he would’ve had his life taken before the bullshit trial.. sad”.

Isaiah Thomas, a member of the 1990s Detroit Pistons “Bad Boys” NBA championship team, vented rage at the judge who presided over the Rittenhouse trial:

“Not like that but like that you can be white and get away with anything!!! I’m scared for my life and my kids [sic] life.. African Americans, however, are a different breed. [sic] locked up for life for shit they didn’t do!!! Damnit [sic] man!!!What about the peoples? [sic] families?? Is there justice in the world? Fuck that judge”

WNBA players also pushed the race card hard at the table.

Chiney Ogwumike (ESPN analyst, Los Angeles Sparks) tweeted that U.S. Justice System is built on race.

The Phoenix Mercury’s Briana Turner tweeted:

“I bet the judge will be the first to take Kyle Rittenhouse for dinner to celebrate all that he’s accomplished this past year … insane how much our judicial system varies based on physical traits of the defendant. Disappointed but not surprised”.

Not that black basketball players are looking at anyone’s skin color. Turner also blasted the “All Lives Matter” crowd over the verdict.

Former Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback Robert Griffin III wrote,” Kyle Rittenhouse can kill without a sliver of doubt & walk free but Julius Jones is in jail for life without the chance for parole after being on death row for 20 years with all types of doubt in his case. Justice is what? God help us.”

Jones received clemency Friday from Oklahoma Gov. Four hours prior to his execution for murder, Keith Stitts was granted clemency by the Oklahoma Governor.

Former Atlanta Falcons all-pro wide receiver Roddy White wrote, “Every time American [sic] gets a chance to do the right  thing it never does. This man will become law enforcement one day and continue to murder more people simply because he is confident he will get away with it. America continues to do this to us every chance it gets.”

In tweets that now appear to have been deleted, J.R. Smith, the former NBA player, actually said, “You can literally have random white people, as well as police, kill a unarmed black person/people and still get away with it,” concluding the verdict is proof that “the systems [sic] plan” is to “normalize killing blacks as much as possible.” 

You see the dreadful picture. The black athletes’ mood is ugly, and it’s not hard to understand given the left-stream media’s pathetic coverage of the Rittenhouse trial that only inflamed the Left.
