The American news site Brietbart reports that Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) shared a clip Friday that claimed there was an “entirely different set of rules for white people” after Kyle Rittenhouse’s acquittal.
In the clip, Ruffin said:
It’s not okay for a man to grab a rifle, travel across state lines, and shoot three people and then walk free. It’s not okay for the judicial system to be blatantly and obviously stacked against people of color. It’s not okay for there to be an entirely different set of rules for white people. But I don’t care about Kyle Rittenhouse. I don’t care about that racist judge. And I don’t care about how f—ed up that jury must be. White people have been getting away with murder since time began.
A jury in Kenosha, Wisconsin, found Rittenhouse not guilty of all charges against him on Friday after deliberating since Tuesday morning.
