How many people have died, have lost their homes and businesses over this false narrative? Should we hold the press liable? BLM? LW politicians? They have destroyed lives and jobs over lying to the public.

To convict him they need to charge him with something they can prove. Guessing they have investigated it and have the total truth.

The mobs don’t know and don’t care that a charge of murder takes evidence and 12 convinced jurors.

All they have is a photo.

He’s charged with second degree murder.

Second degree murder is generally defined as intentional murder that lacks premeditation, is intended to only cause bodily harm, and demonstrates an extreme indifference to human life.

They must convict him of something, anything, to avoid more riots.
The cop did what he was trained to do, what it was his duty to do, but the Leftists are ready to launch (staged and paid?) angry mobs if the outcome of the trial is not to their liking.

The reason is simple. They don’t want another Zimmerman/Martin case. They are charging him with something they may actually be able to get a guilty verdict on.

This hints at what may happen with Rittenhouse as well. The only thing they can charge HIM with has to do with an underage person carrying a weapon, which has nothing whatsoever to do with what he did with it.

When the event occurred, I recall seeing online pictures of the pages taken straight from the Minneapolis PD training manual that show how to apply the neck restraint that Chauvin used.

I haven’t seen them since, but we can assume Chauvin’s lawyers have them.

The trial is an afterthought. It was always the narrative that was important. The leftist rant that was echoed by the colluding MSM that America is systemically racist and corrupt, must be torn down and recreated as a green, socialist, globalist entity. The damage was done, the political effect the Democrats sought was achieved, the black community is much worse off and the vile narrative continues.

“What a contemptible answer by Justice Barrett. She prejudged a White police officer as a racist killer - denying Chauvin the presumption of innocence. She acted as judge, jury, and executioner. Barrett is a disgrace to her profession.”

The author gave ACB Hell.

Minnesota’s Muslim African-American Attorney General Keith Ellison did not charge Officer Derek Chauvin with a hate crime or even with intentionally murdering Floyd.

And if there was a snowball's chance in Hell of those charges sticking, you can be sure they'd be foremost.

Yes indeed, how can this be? This lack of charges against Chauvin not mentioning race is incredible considering the portrayals of Floyd's arrest-related-death as a racist hate crime and cold-blooded murder.

What is even more astounding is that while this depiction of a racially motivated murder may have originated with Black Lives Matter, Antifa, the race hustlers, the grievance industry, and especially the Leftist “civil rights” group, it was repeated by even so-called law and order Republicans. Conservative commentators such as Sean Hannity, the late Rush Limbaugh, Dennis Prager all were anxious to denounce Derek Chauvin. Republican politicians could not wait to run in front of a camera to condemn Chauvin as a racist murderer without a trial. Even other police officers could not wait to express their outrage.

Presumption of innocence be damned!

That what started that stupid reach across the isle Rush did with the racists on The Breakfast Club where they humiliated Rush. Truly one of his lower moments in radio broadcast history. He accomplished nothing, but to fall for the media narrative, in a lame attempt to kiss the ass of people looking to play more race cards. Floyd died of a Fentenyal overdose. The autopsy showed no bruising around the neck or stress on the tracheae. Floyd was screaming he couldn't breathe with sitting in the back of a police car. If Chauvin should be accused of is reckless judgment.

Now after this finding,how about rounding up as many of the trouble-makers as possible who were convinced (apparently) of
Chauvin’s guilt & prosecute them instead?

Ellison deliberately withheld the bodycam video for months, allowing rioters to destroy entire neighborhoods in cities across the country. He is the one who should be on trial along with those in the Media-Dem Party who spread lies that were meant to deliberately fan the flames of rioting and armed insurrection.

Conviction...riots as it proves the Minneapolis PD is racist. Not Guilty...riots.
Guilty on a lesser charge.. riots

It is going to be a long hot summer in Minneapolis...what’s left of it.
