Rittenhouse shot three White men on the night of August 25, 2020, in Kenosha, Wisc., killing two. A jury concluded that he shot them in self-defense, and he was cleared of all charges. Hours of video evidence was presented that supported his claim, as well as eye-witnesses who testified that the man shot had threatened and came at the teen.
The glaring error from Cooney's book was brought to the attention of Twitter by Kara McKinney, of OAN's Tipping Point. She wrote that the text appeared in the last chapter of Cooney's book, and revealed that Cooney is "not the brightest bulb and it shows." McKinney found another error in the book as well, when Cooney said that noted Civil Rights activist and organizer Rosa Parks sat in the "White section" of a bus in Montgomery, Ala. But Parks' protest, rather, was to decline to offer her seat to a White passenger.

In November, Rittenhouse was found not guilty on all charges by a jury in the charges of first-degree reckless homicide in the death of Joseph Rosenbaum, first-degree intentional homicide in the death of Anthony Huber, first-degree attempted intentional homicide for injuring Gaige Grosskreutz, and two counts of first-degree recklessly endangering safety. Cooney's book uses Rittenhouse to make her claims about White patriarchal hegemonic rule of the United States.

The assertion that Rittenhouse shot Black men was repeated by international media outlets as well and came from corporate media outlets endlessly writing that Rittenhouse shot BLM protestors, leading to believe that those men were Black.
Cooney concluded the paragraph by saying, "Fear has gripped the patriarchy, and the threat of righteous violence- or the lethal use of it- is the patriarchy’s response."
Rittenhouse proved to have acted in self-defense when he was chased by a mob of angry rioters carrying weapons, as he and one of the men he shot testified.

The three men shot by Rittenhouse on the night of August 25, 2020, were all white. The case was widely perceived by Progressive media as one having racial implications.
In the early fall of 2020, then-candidate Joe Biden criticized Rittenhouse as a "white supremacist" during a campaign ad. There was no proof of this, yet many repeated the claim.
Oblivious to the realities of the case, Cooney added, "That’s not to mention the White people who rallied behind him to post his bail."
