1:35 P.M. — New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio (D) isn’t happy.

Anthony Huber and Joseph Rosenbaum are victims. They should be alive today.

The only reason they’re not is because a violent, dangerous man chose to take a gun across state lines and start shooting people.

To call this a miscarriage of justice is an understatement. https://t.co/TwaI2ghgM5

1:34 P.M. — Former Democrat Rep. Tulsi Gabbard weighs in, says jury made the correct decision:

The jury got it right—finding Rittenhouse not guilty on all charges. The fact that charges were brought before any serious investigation is evidence that the government was motivated by politics, which itself should be considered criminal.

Rittenhouse walks. I don’t blame the jury at all, it was a tough case. But this is going to set awful precedent. Right-wing is going to feel emboldened to walk in anywhere with a weapon and just look for an excuse to use it. Provocation with weapons has become “self-defense” now.

huge surprise that white supremacy continues to prevail in the american justice system. Rittenhouse killed two unarmed people with a weapon he illegally obtained, he should be in prison. period.

Travyon Martin was an unarmed 17-year-old kid. He was killed carrying a bag of skittles. The right-wing called him a threat.

Kyle Rittenhouse was 17 years old and armed. He shot and killed 2 people with an AR-15. The right-wing calls him a hero. pic.twitter.com/JursSJFT7j
