George Floyd killing and the aftermath

[Methais]

I'm glad to see that you're finally acknowledging being a douchebag loser waste of space.

Baby steps.

I doubt it gets overturned on appeal. Unless there's evidence a juror was watching the news.

I always find the multiple charges for the same crime to be odd, but in Minnesota he'll serve them concurrently.

To me the most sobering thing in all this is that the initial police statement said he died at the hospital of a medical event. If it weren't for the video, he never would have been charged, let alone convicted of murder.

I'm not saying he's guilty of murder or whatever but I found this youtube video fascinating.

Already on to the next outrage. A black teenager was threatening people with a knife, when police arrived she was making stabbing motions towards the people, police shot her, outrage ensues. All of this was caught on police body cam.

This was never about justice.

There was literally a video that came out where Chauvin said "I don't care". That wasn't released to the public. That is what damned him on 2nd Degree murder.

And there are two types of second degree murder charges in Minnesota. He got the lower, 2nd Degree Unintentional. He firmly falls into that category.

His entire mentality is what fucked him. He thought he could get away with doing whatever he wanted in broad daylight.

The entire trial was live. I watched most of it. They jurors weren't "scared". If you'd watched all the shit, you'd see he got exactly what he deserved.

This is also correct. And the conflict that is coming will be fast, dirty and unbelievably brutal and horrific. And that assumes that no foreign power decides to pile in.

Right. Lol

Oh so he was a dumbass.

If in that video he reached down, checked his vitals, let off on the knee on the neck a bit but not entirely off and kinda told ," you're fine, I'm waiting until the ambulance arrives, it's going to be OK." or some shit , he could've still died and him charged but I doubt they would've gotten him for 2nd degree.

aww someone is a douchebag loser who hides behind red rep. Not that I care they are a useless waste of space so that's okay. I mean it sounds like I care but i don't really.

You cared enough to make a whiny complaint post about it. Stop lying to yourself.

He was a dumbass. The key part of the prosecution against him was that he felt he was untouchable and could do whatever he wanted.

He'd have probably gotten just Manslaughter if he had acted like Floyd was a human being.

And I'm not saying Floyd was a saint in any way either. He still deserved a trial.
