Wisconsin National Guard Authorized For Kenosha In Anticipation of Rittenhouse Verdict

Here we go again.The mobs will be howling outside and around the courthouse in Kenosha in anticipation of a verdict in the Kyle Rittenhouse verdict, which goes to the jury Monday. Mind you, not just any verdict will result in rioting, only a Not Guilty verdict.The Wisconsins Governor has authorized 500 National Guard troops for Kenosha:

Approximately 500 Wisconsin Army National Guard troops are reporting for State Active Duty as authorized by Gov. Tony Evers to support local partners in ensuring public safety in conjunction with hundreds of officers from volunteering law enforcement agencies. This, as the trial of Kyle Rittenhouse is in its final stages.

“We continue to be in close contact with our partners at the local level to ensure the state provides support and resources to help keep the Kenosha community and greater area safe,” said Gov. Evers. “The Kenosha community has been strong, resilient, and has come together through incredibly difficult times these past two years, and that healing is still ongoing. I urge folks who are otherwise not from the area to please respect the community by reconsidering any plans to travel there and encourage those who might choose to assemble and exercise their First Amendment rights to do so safely and peacefully.”

“We stand ready to support our communities during times of need,” said Maj. Gen. Paul Knapp, Wisconsin’s adjutant general. “In close coordination with the governor, we have assembled approximately 500 Soldiers to help keep the Kenosha community safe, should a request from our local partners come in.”

It’s probably a smart move to help maintain law and order, but make no mistake that this mobilization and the threat of more rioting and looting will be hanging over the jury.

We know how the media will cover it from the last time:

From the Kenosha Is Burning archives:

Legal Insurrection will have a post-verdict online event  soon after the verdict, regardless of what it is. Date and Time obviously To Be Announced.
