If Chauvin was never born Floyd would probably still be dead right noe. The only difference is nobody would care.

Why would anyone now become a cop in a Democrat-run city?

George Floyd had enough fetanyl in his system to kill a horse. This should have been by itself enough reasonable doubt to acquit Derek Chauvin of murder.

Meanwhile in the same Minneapolis, Mohammad Noor serves only 4.5 years for murdering an unarmed white woman Justine Damond.

That is just not right...Was there a federal trial with a jury? One trial wasn’t enough? Equal justice, huh?

Cities were torched, businesses were burned; this country lived with the mayhem for two years and what price did any rioters pay?

Stinks!

Yes.

Political prisoner, while Antony Blinken flounces around with the perpetual frowny face about other countries and their internal affairs.

Now I do see, and always have seen, Federal charges as a form of double-jeopardy. I can’t understand why nobody hasn’t challenged these actions of double-jeopardy as unconstitutional.

I hate this overlapping concurrent jurisdiction. There should only be one level of jurisdiction on any given matter. (And no word games, like saying the state charges are for the crime per se, and federal charges are civil rights violations)

Trump needs to pardon him in March of ‘25.

Double Jeopardy? How does the federal government get involved in local issues? That’s rhetorical.

I'll take political trials for $500.
