While the judge's comment seemed to be a commentary on supply chain backup, the joke has sparked a backlash online.
During the Kyle Rittenhouse homicide trial on Thursday, Kenosha County Circuit Judge Bruce Schroeder made a joke that some say is racist.
When the prosecution attorneys asked when they would break for lunch, Schroeder said,"Around one o'clock." He added,"I hope the Asian food isn't on one of those boats in Long Beach harbor," he added. While the comment seemed to be a commentary on the supply chain backup, the joke has sparked a backlash online."Because all Asian food comes from China like the boats," she said in a tweet,"What a bigot."
The biased judge in the Rittenhouse trial just made a thinly-veiled anti-Asian comment. When asked when lunch was coming he said "I hope the Asian food isn't on one of those boats in Long Beach harbor." Because all Asian food comes from China like the boats haha what a bigot.
