People of colour (or poor people) not being afforded justice doesn't mean that others shouldn't be.
But yes, it's unlikely. Then again OJ had enough money to get off. Fwiw my opinion on that is while he almost definitely did it, the case was handled so badly that I don't think a right minded jury could have convicted.
It's a moot point anyway because had he been black he would likely have been shot by the police at the time, rather than allowed to walk away and wait at home until his mum convinced him to turn himself in. And even if he'd made survived he'd of likely been advised to make a plea deal.

I hope this isn't aimed at me. Of course it wouldn't have flown, America is institutionally racist.
I think the villain is the system, not KR.

Thought experiment for those “ah actually this was a legal self defence textbook case your honour” people here.
I thought they weren’t saying they believe it to be that, just that this is what according to the law of the states.

Imagine Rittenhouse was not white but black. Now tell me whether you think his defence would have flown and he would have walked free.
If you think he would you are deluded to the point of no return, you should turn in your brain to the authorities.
