Ms. Bosman writes that the verdict is being seen by some as “a win for the notion of self-defense” and others as “a failure of the criminal justice system.” Do you think this verdict should be seen as a symbol for broader issues? If so, which ones? If not, why?

Sagot :

The acquittal of Mr. Kyle Rittenhouse, who killed two men and wounded another in a riot against the killing of Jacob Blake, who was protesting the police brutality against George Floyd, can only be seen as a symbol of America's racial divide.

The question is, was Mr. Rittenhouse right to carry a gun at 17 years when he was attending to keep the peace and provide medical aid to protesters? At his age then, was Mr. Rittenhouse authorized to belong to a Vigilante Group that could keep the peace in racial protests?

Thus, given Mr. Rittenhouse's age and the purpose of his presence at the scene of rioting, the verdict that acquitted him is bound to attract controversy concerning broader issues of vigilantism, gun rights, and proper definition of self-defense.
