Trial of Derek Chauvin: A Juror Supported What?!

[San Lumen]

Even the brothers in blue turned their back on him.

Derek Chauvin's life is basically over. He's lost his freedom and any respect from the populace, and he'll be in prison for a while.

When every cop called to the stand from the dispatcher to the Chief of Police is a prosecution witness...you just might be in a world of shit.

maybe its a sign the police brotherhood is finally showing cracks.

I love the first comment.

[Fartsniffage]

No, I'm not gonna debate you when you refuse to listen.

I'm also confused as to how Lumen finds debating about Waters/Pelosi and their districts as off topic in a thread where Waters and Pelosi literally attempted to make themselves the topic.

He's right though. American politicians should really be talked about in the American Politics thread. Talk about what they said directly pertaining to the trial here, further implications don't really belong here.

Did none of these people pull a random guy off the street and go "hey would it be bad if I implied it was good that Floyd died/did shit like this"?

Because I think they should've.

Chauvin was so brutal, even the system said "no we can't defend you."

This is, by far, the stupidest and most ill-informed thing I have ever seen.

I hope this team falls to fucking shit this year.

Patrick Yoes, president of the National Fraternal Order of Police, the nation's largest law enforcement union, said "Justice has worked as it should" in response to the conviction of Derek Chauvin. "The trial was fair and due process was served."

I guess all cops aren’t bastards.

Them throwing one guy under the bus doesn't change that the system is still very crooked and needs to be fixed. Chauvin went to prison, now let's see this be repeated.

What? Who the hell thought that was a good idea?

Obviously, someone who was already celebrating 4/20 when they heard the news.

No, they're just smart enough to avoid latching onto the sinking ship that was this case. American policing still needs to be destroyed and rebuilt from the ground up.

The President of the Fraternal Order of Police just praised the verdict on CNN and said the jury got it right.They are the largest national police union.

You can start by voting in county and municipal elections and voting for people who are in favor of change for mayor and city council along with county offices such as DA and Sheriff.

Throwing under a bus? No, they spoke out because they saw a police officer abuse his power and kill a man that didn’t need to die. I agree, killer cops and cops that abuse their authority need to be held accountable, which means prison time.

But they’re are good cops, even great cops, and they hate the cops that abuse their authority MORE than you hate all cops.

The entire American system needs to be destroyed and rebuilt if its to survive this century. Voting won't do shit.

IMO it would not be as bad if the logo was not at the bottom. It would still be kinda cringe worthy though.

People like Rojava don’t have faith in Democracy, thus they believe voting is futile. They say “we been voting for x-number of years and we haven’t seen the change we need, what we need is revolution.”

don't forget, the other three officers (Tou Thao, J. Alexander Kueng and Thomas Lane), will be charged on August 23rd, with aiding and abetting 2nd degree murder and manslaughter

A factor in why Chauvin got convicted likely has to do with state AG Ellison. His office took charge of the case and it was tried in state court.

This might as well read "I don't know about the civilizational cliff that we're dangling off of". Go jump down the climate rabbit hole, it's horrifying and will change your entire perspective on the world.

I have doubts all 4 will be convicted tbh. Chauvin was pretty likely, but the others are less so.
