Kamala Harris: Verdict in Chauvin Trial ‘Will Not Heal Pain That Existed for Generations’
breitbart ^ | 20 Apr 2021 | AMY FURR

A verdict finding Derek Chauvin guilty in the death of George Floyd would not wipe out generations of trauma, Vice President Kamala Harris commented on Tuesday.

“This verdict is but a piece of it,” she told CNN’s Dana Bash during an interview at the White House:

And it will not heal the pain that existed for generations, that has existed for generations among people who have experienced and first-hand witnessed what now a broader public is seeing because of smartphones and the ubiquity of our ability to videotape in real time what is happening in front of our faces. And that is the reality of it.

Let’s say there is a guilty verdict on the highest charge, it will not take away the pain of the Floyd family. It will not take away the pain of the communities, all communities, regardless of their color or geographic location, that felt sadness and anger in what they witnessed in that video.

Chauvin, a former Minneapolis police officer, was found guilty Tuesday on all three charges he faced in the death of Floyd, second-degree unintentional murder, third-degree murder, and second-degree manslaughter, Breitbart News reported: In a brief proceeding, Judge Peter A. Cahill unsealed the envelope carrying the jury’s decision and read the verdicts aloud, then asked each individual juror to confirm the decision. Bail was then revoked and Chauvin, nodding in assent, was led away in handcuffs.

According to ABC 17, the White House has been monitoring the situation and deciding how President Joe Biden and Vice President Harris should address the trial’s outcome.

This isn’t the country from my youth, for sure.

It’s more and more like those banana republics we used to hear about.

Reparations won’t heal the pain either. It will never be enough. All they do is foment more racial hatred because they’d be out of jobs if they stop.

The race baiting is continuing.

The left wants a race war, and it’s beginning to look like they are going to get one, which is why they want the average American unarmed.

the problem is, we aren’t and the left, and blacks in particular, are vastly outnumbered.

It will not end well for them.

That’s the plan. Ethnicity-based taxes.

Think the first related trial balloon was ethnicity-based priority for Covid vaccines. No legal challenges were raised whatsoever AFAIK.

Trial balloons floated for such a tax-plan raised by many in Congress already. And not just by the fringe left.

It is not going to happen. In a war , there are two sides fighting. We refuse to fight.

No. We’ll have to pass reparations to heal the pain. Only that won’t heal the pain. We’ll have to take all of Whitey’ s money. But that won’t heal the pain either.

Hey, it’s still daylight in Minneapolis. The looting starts, from experience after nine or 10 o’clock at night it seems.

So much for healing in unity when your First response is to claim systemic racism for anyone who isn’t flying a BLM flag on their house.

So her black side (not the Indian side) says to all of us:

Chauvin gets off and you lose.

Chauvin convicted of all charges and you lose.

In short: you lose.

She took time off from meeting with illegals at the border and interviewing frightened children to figure that statement out? /s

Actually Kamala says: Huh? What border do you mean?

They are Evil. They want a race war. Division. Chaos. Power. Submission. And the white left seems perfectly happy to go along with it. Trying to figure that one out. I mean do any of them know the “first they came for” poem? Listen to some Tom McDonald. Not a rap fan but can really get into his stuff.

Chaos everywhere. Then there will have to be a "rule of law" so that everyone may buy or sell. Oh, don't want the mark of the "new messiah"? Well then, get in the van.



You DO want to be a good Global Citizen, right, citizen? Go Global. It's the worldly thing all good Global Citizens do.

These progressive monsters don’t want justice. They want blood. Make no mistake. They want us dead. Prepare accordingly.
