“Shockingly,” America’s super-wokified ice cream company has jumped into the Kyle Rittenhouse case with both Birkenstock-wearing feet, and not a minute too soon. After more than 30 witnesses and riveting testimony by Rittenhouse, the defense finally gave up on Friday.
Juors will be given two-and-a–half hours each for closings Monday by Judge Bruce Schroeder before he directs the panel to the law. But wait, judge — Ben & Jerry’s hasn’t given iTs testimony, yet. Until now.
Ben & Jerry’s blasted for spreading misinformation about Kyle Rittenhouse, inventing hypothetical scenario to bring race into the case https://t.co/FBYvBKmFIU

“Testimony,” defined: “a ridiculous hypothetical scenario, based solely on race-based conspiracy crap that’s as hilarious as it is pathetic.”
The #RittenhouseTrial displays yet again that our “justice” system is racist. What would the trial look like if this defendant was Black and 17 years old? The legal system must provide real justice. This isn’t it.
Give me a sec — BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

It #RittenhouseTrial displays yet again that our “justice” system is racist.⁰⁰How would this trial be going if he was a Black 17 yr old that crossed state lines illegally carrying an AR-15 and shot 3 white protesters?⁰⁰We need real justice in the legal system. This isn’t it.

Ben & Jerry’s might know how to make marginally good, overpriced ice cream, but legal geniuses they ain’t. Last time I checked, “what ifs” and hypothetical scenarios — particularly Previously debunked hypothetical scenarios, driven solely by political predisposition – are not admissible in a court of law.
As reported by The Blaze on Saturday, the nonsense tweeted by Ben & Jerry’s has been debunked for more than a year. The Lake County State’s Attorney’s Office released a statement on Oct. 13, 2020, clarifying that Rittenhouse He was not allowed to possess the Kenosha firearm while in Illinois..
The Antioch Police Department conducted a thorough investigation into the gun that was used in the shooting of Kenosha, Illinois on August 28th. The Lake County State’s Attorney’s Office has reviewed that investigation to determine if any crimes were committed in Lake County, Illinois.
The investigation found that the gun used to kill Kenosha police officers was bought, stored, and then used in Wisconsin. Kyle Rittenhouse, an Illinois resident, has no physical evidence to support the gun’s possession.
Oops, ice cream dudes.
In addition, a friend of Rittenhouse testified in the trial that he — the friend — purchased the gun used in the shooting, It is not Rittenhouse, noted The Blaze. Also, court records obtained showed that the rifle went from Wisconsin to Illinois and then back but it was in the trunk of a car driven by Rittenhouse’s friend and was not in Rittenhouse’s possession while he was in Illinois.
And not to nitpick, Ben & Jerry’s and other left-wing loons, but the firearm used in the shooting was not an AR-15 — AKA: “scary-looking assault rifle, weapon of war, automatic rifle, machine gun, or something.” It was a Smith & Wesson M&P 15, court records showed.
So, let’s get back to Ben & Jerry’s “what if?” whataboutism game, shall we? To begin, let’s look at the race card. It attempts to inject racism into an otherwise non-racially related incident.
“What if” the Blacks in the below scenarios were white, Ben & Jerry’s? Or any liberals willing to lie in answer
As RedState reported on Thursday, New York City Mayor-elect Eric Adams last week vowed to reinstate plain-clothes, anti-crime police units on the city’s crime-ridden streets. The units were disbanded by Bill de Blasio (the soon-to-be former Mayor) during the 2020 Black Lives Matter riots. In response to Adams’s announcement, Black Lives Matter NYC leader Hawke Newsome issued a direct threat to the mayor-elect and residents of New York City:
“If they think they are going back to the old ways of policing then we’re going to take to the streets again. There will be riots. There will be fire, and there will be bloodshed.”
Imagine for a nanosecond the immediate histrionics on the left if instead of Hawke Newsome and Black Lives Matter, Henry Enrique Tarrio and the Proud Boys had made that exact threat, anywhere in America — let alone in response to a black mayor-elect.
Next, as RedState reported last Monday, Boston-based State Street Global Advisors — one of the world’s largest investment companies — announced that henceforth, its leaders will need permission to Hire white men as part of the company’s new diversity hiring initiative. “This is now front and central for State Street; it’s on every senior executive’s scorecard,” said Jess McNicholas, the company’s head of Diversity, inclusion and corporate citizenship.
Needless to say, if a company were to make a similar announcement about hiring Black men, all hell would break loose — and rightly so. But, what about the white men? That’s okay.
Finally, as RedState reported on Saturday, The Washington Post’s Jennifer Rubin called for different ground rules for Republicans, deeming conservatives “not normal.”
“You have to have new ground rules for the media. They must stop treating Republicans as normal politicians. They are not normal politicians … This is a party that spends its entire time cooking up ridiculous culture memes and fanning violence and coming up with outright lies.”
It’s far too absurd to address. Imagine, though, the liberal hysteria if a Fox News host called for different “ground rules” for Democrats because they’re not “normal politicians,” choosing instead to fan violence and engage in outright lying. Do you remember anyone else?
This was just three instances of hypocrisy on the left’s part about whataboutism. But, as you all know, there are many more examples, which proves that hypocrisy is not a one-size fits all.
I think I’m done, here. Time for a chocolate malt from my local Graeter’s Ice Cream shop.
Listen — just one more day of pimping, here, gang — but pimping for a good cause indeed!
