Van Jones: If Chauvin Not Convicted in Floyd Trial, America Will Be in a ‘Dangerous Position’
Breitbart ^ | March 29 2021 | Pam Key

CNN political commentator Van Jones said Monday on CNN’s “Cuomo Prime Time” that if former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin were not found guilty of killing George Floyd, America would be in a “dangerous position as a country.”

Jones said, “Everybody I’m talking to are frustrated, re-triggered, re-traumatized. Seeing that video, seeing the complete contempt for life. You have a generation of African-Americans and their allies — I’m talking this entire young generation—that is watching this to see if America — listen, the system is on trial here. The system is on trial. and I can’t tell you, people have tried to push away from this, move on from this. Today brought it all back home for tens of millions of people. And if this is considered legal conduct from a police officer, if you can do this in broad daylight and not go to jail, it will be perceived as open season, telling police officers from coast to coast you can literally get away with murder in broad daylight. So, this was, I think, today was a brutal day for the people who were able to watch. A lot of people weren’t even able to watch. They said, I just can’t even put myself through it again.”

I pay about as much attention to commie Van Jones and his extremely anti-white viewpoints as I pay to a fallen leaf in autumn. He is just a vicious hate-spewing ugly mouth, like water from a sewage outlet.

Chauvin is guilty of excessive use of force as in police brutality. He did not kill him. A fatal dose of fentanyl killed Floyd. Chauvin is not guilty of murder.

OJ was guilty as hell, but got off on the murder charge. The cop is innocent of the murder charge (though maybe partially culpable in manslaughter) but they’ll be afraid to acquit him and cause cities to burn.
