'I smell another lawsuit': Joy Reid (or at least her MSNBC blog) believes Rittenhouse verdict gives white conservatives carte blanche to go on killing sprees

Well, Joy Reid is handling the Kyle Rittenhouse not-guilty verdict about as well as thought she would.

Which is to say she’s out of her ever-loving mind.

We knew, but it’s sometimes helpful to remind ourselves how America was designed to work. It continues to work as designed. We have learned again what is considered legal for *some* people to do in America. It’s helpful to know where you stand in your country. Be safe out there.

In the Rittenhouse case, the 13th juror was the judge.

Sigh.

It’s over, Joy. You can stop lying now. https://t.co/dJquFW92Gs

Never. She’ll never stop lying.

While we’re out reacting and processing the Rittenhouse verdict, please spare a thought for the families of Joseph Rosenbaum and Anthony Huber, who are mourning, and for Gaige Grosskreutz and Jacob Blake. There is nothing here but tragedy, and these families are in pain.

So far, if you consider just the above tweets, she might sound relatively calm to you. But we assure you: she’s anything but.

So, apparently what Joy was alluding to above when she said “We have learned again what is considered legal for *some* people to do in America” was that it’s legal for white conservatives to go on killing sprees. This is definitely in Nikole Hannah-Jones territory.

Now, it’s important to point out that the actual piece was not written by Reid herself, but rather by Ja’Han Jones. It was, however, published on her MSNBC “The ReidOut Blog.” So her name is attached to it. And honestly, based on everything we know about Joy Reid and everything she’s shown us, is there really any doubt that she would disagree with the notion that white conservatives can murder with impunity?

She's having a normal one. Seriously, this level of brain dysfunction is totally normal for her. https://t.co/UEKni25mCc
