Every cop should call in sick from now until forever.

The United States Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit has only one Democrat appointed judge on it. One was appointed by H.W. Bush, five by W. Bush, and 5 by President Trump.

Question: why did the news cover this 24/7,why did the President himself chime in, repeatedly, and most importantly why did you have this outcome-

When a male 6’4’’ 230 lbs, resisting arrest, obviously on drugs, getting arrested after distributing counterfeit money, dies at the hand of a cop using an authorized restraining technique who could not have known about a pre-existing heart condition gets found guilty of murder,

BUT

A female USAF vet, gets shot dead on 6 January, from a distance (no threat to the cop), who wasn’t on drugs, has the cop found not guilty of anything? Where is the POTUS making comments? Where is CNN giving live updates?

America 2021 - some lives do matter more than others, but maybe not the way some imagine it to be in their self victimizing minds.

I would love to see one...or more..of the jurors go on Tucker or Hannity and say that the only reason they voted guilty was because they feared violent retribution if they didn't.

I expect black involved crime to sky rocket. If I were white and came across a black assailant I would re holster and go home.

Yes, after Chauvin cools his heels in prison for a couple of years. And tg3 case has little to gain on appeals. Chauvin is a goner

“All cops nationwide should consider resigning.”

That’s the grand plan to make way for nationally-controlled gestapo.

F the “public”. Let them burn their cities. Then when they come to the ‘burbs, shoot them.

They won’t find standing on appeal. Because it is all based on video evidence,
