March For Our Lives says Kyle Rittenhouse 'embodies the very danger posed by an armed white supremacist culture'

• Rittenhouse "embodies" the "danger" of "armed white supremacist culture," March For Our Lives said.
• "Young people are enraged watching this trial," the gun control advocacy group said on Friday.

Kyle Rittenhouse embodies the threat of "armed white supremacist culture," March For Our Lives said after the teenager was fully acquitted on Friday in his homicide trial.

Rittenhouse — who was found not guilty for fatally shooting two men and injuring a third during unrest in August 2020 — came to Kenosha, Wisconsin, during the Black Lives Matter protests to "exploit tragedy," the gun control advocacy group wrote in a statement on Friday.

The group claimed Rittenhouse was treated with "kiddy gloves" and called him a "dangerous vigilante."

"This deadly culture ensnared Kyle Rittenhouse and his three victims," March For Our Lives said. "One thing is clear: Young people are enraged watching this trial, and this will not be our normal."

The group added: "He embodies the very danger posed by an armed white supremacist culture."

March For Our Lives is a gun control advocacy group that was created in 2018 following a school shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida.

The jury delivered its verdict in the Rittenhouse trial on Friday after three-and-a-half days of deliberation.

The teen had pleaded not guilty in all charges against him and said that he acted in self-defense.
