Missouri Rep Cori Bush (D) on Monday tried to dunk on Kyle Rittenhouse by claiming that when she and other Black Lives Matter protesters marched in Ferguson they were shot at by “white supremacists” who “never faced consequences” for trying to murder them.

“When we marched in Ferguson, white supremacists would hide behind a hill near where Michael Brown Jr. was murdered and shoot at us,” Bush claimed. “They never faced consequences.”

“If Kyle Rittenhouse gets acquitted, it tells them that even 7 years later they still can get away with it,” she added.

They never faced consequences.

If Kyle Rittenhouse gets acquitted, it tells them that even 7 years later they still can get away with it.

As Andy Ngo highlighted, the “white supremacist” shooter was actually a black man by the name of Jeffrey Williams and he was shooting at police, not BLM protesters.

“Jeffrey Williams was arrested, charged and convicted for that shooting during the protest/riots,” Ngo said. “He was aiming at police and shot two officers.”

This is false and ignominious. Your colleagues should condemn you. Jeffrey Williams was arrested, charged & convicted for that shooting during the protest/riots. He was aiming at police & shot two officers. pic.twitter.com/qIx0qsxcyX
