It's high time we went on the offensive. Please sign this White House petition to charge the DA in the Kyle Rittenhouse case with federal civil rights crimes.
Prosecute district attorneys who charged Kyle Rittenhouse with murder under 18 U.S. Code § 242
Created by J.H. on August 29, 2020
18 USC § 242 provides for the punishment of "Whoever, under color of any law, statute, ordinance, regulation, or custom, willfully subjects any person in any State, Territory, Commonwealth, Possession, or District to the deprivation of any rights, privileges, or immunities secured or protected by the Constitution or laws of the United States..."
The district attorneys in the Kyle Rittenhouse case, despite clear evidence of lawful self-defense, filed murder charges against Rittenhouse. This not only subjects Rittenhouse to unlawful deprivation of rights it creates a chilling effect on others who wish to exercise their specific enumerate right to keep and bear arms in defense of self and others.
The district attorneys and others involved in this unlawful activity should be prosecuted.
