The Morning Rant

'Whose Streets? OUR Streets!'

I wanted to comment on what I considered to tbe the two dumbest lefty takes on the Rittenhouse trial:

1. "He crossed state lines."

2. "He should not have been there."

Only now I can't talk about #1 because ace's magnificent take-down in the right sidebar ("...We're literally hearing this seriously offered as Real Crime by every shitlib in the media and by every shitlib on Twitter.")

But #2 is insisted upon as if it's some Moral Imperative which violation invalidated all of Rittenhouse's actions that night. We can discuss whether it was *wise* for him to be there. If I were in his position, I might've decided to stay far away from a city torn up by rioting, but it's not that he had no *right* to be there. I mean, this is America, right? You can go where you want, short of trespassing on private property. Which the left doesn't believe. It is their position that it is they, not us, who own the streets and all public space, and it is they who determines who is allowed access to public space and who isn't. This came out in some of Binger's arguments. It was, like, "your claim of self defense is invalid because you were in a bad neighborhood. If you hadn't been there, none of this would've happened." Yes, and if the thugs didn't chase him, point a gun at him and bash him with a skateboard, none of this would have happened, either.

And what's the big deal? Didn't they spend all summer telling us that the protests were "peaceful"? So what was there to be afraid of?

Then they argue that Rittenhouse's presence "provoked" them. This is the standard antifa/BLM excuse for initiating violence. But you know, if I see a man with a gun who may want to shoot me, my reaction is to run the other way, not run at him and try to hit him with my skateboard.

The fact of the matter is, the radical left is whining because they lost a couple three of their foot soldiers that night, and also that Rittenhouse's defense may act as a deterrent to future "direct actions", as they call them. I notice that there were protests after the verdict, but not rioting, at least not like 2020. These guys don't fear the police, nor the judicial system. What they fear most is victims who fight back. As Larry Correia recently said:

This trial isn’t about this trial. It’s about how the left simply can’t abide the idea of regular people not putting up with their shit. Currently most law-abiding, gun owning, other-than-leftist, Americans actively avoid giant flaming lefty temper tantrums...But if more regular people say fuck it, I’m not going to stand down or hide, then more rioters would get shot, which would certainly make rioting less attractive, and then the left would lose a valuable tool in their tool box. Crazy violent temper tantrums (fueled by a helpful lying ass media) are useful to the left. Without their gang of useful idiots being able to destroy shit with impunity, who else would scare the shit out of juries? Who else would ensure everyone trapped in cities always toes the line?

I remember when BLM tried to demonstrate in a red area near me. I think it was part of their "Rural America, we're coming for YOU!" program. But it didn't work out for the quite like they had planned. Area residents came out in force, lining both sides of the roadsand chanting "Whose streets? OUR streets!" at the masked black bloc thugs until they retreated. We need more of this. We need to remember that there are more of us then there are of them.

Friday Who Dis: I didn't see any correct guesses of the connection between Danielle Panabaker and Travis Milne, Friday's who dis celebs, which was that both had roles in the 2013 romantic comedy Nearlyweds. Probably because nobody cares. I don't, either, really. I had never heard of this movie until I went looking for a suitable male candidate to pair with Ms. Panabaker, and I'm generally not a fan of rom-coms.
