CHAPTER

What's the Difference Between a Black Person and a White Person?

If cabritten house were a black teen ager and this was a kind of protest, we wouldn't be looking at a trial. The judge allowed the background of one of the people that he killed to be entered into evidence - even though there's no way cal rittenhouse knew one thing about them. We see this and we realize that the judicial system has an unacceptable racial double standard when it comes to how people use force. Even if i accept that caritten house committed an act of self defence that could be exonerated in court, i have to ask about all the other african american criminal suspects who also claimed self defense and who were convicted with a similar degree of evidence.
