Mohammad Noor was a black Minneapolis police officer who was convicted of killing a white woman named Justine Damond. Damond had called to report a possible rape in her neighborhood. She was outside her home. She was not being arrested, nor charged with anything.

Noor got 12 1/2 years.

Derek Chauvin was a white Minneapolis police officer who was convicted of killing a black man named George Floyd. Floyd was being arrested and had large amounts of drugs in his system (none of which justifies killing him.)

Chauvin got 22 1/2 years.

See the difference?

I doubt it will take a year. Does it never occur to the people who are cheering on the left’s totally fascist behavior that they will be next on the target list? All the idiot whites marching in the street and holding up their fists shouting “BLACK POWER” will soon be the enemy.

Right, Floyd’s crimes weren’t victimless either. The left acts as though George Floyd was a saint.

if you listened or read the testimony you would know he was still breathing, and the ambulance was right there trying to get through the angry crowd to the victim

All you questions were answered in the defense testimony

Considering the CNN chyron stated that Chauvin could get up to 40 years, CNN set the bar high so that when the verdict came in it would be well under the 40 year sentence. This is an example of how CNN is trying to stir up the masses. It was no more a gut-punch than CNN smacking people in the back of the head with their “he could get up to 40 years”. All other news agencies were reporting up to 30 years. I am surprised no one noted this.

Derek Chauvin is serving OJ Simpson’s sentence.

If you have a life sentence in CA, you can apply for parole in just 7 short years.

a year of rioting insured that there would not be a fair trial. I wont say guilty or not guilty but I will say that the judges misconduct along with those prosecuting has insured that there will always be a Question about this trial.

Devon Dunham was a black ex con that thought he was entitled to Mr Stevens' 'cause...slavery.

Despite eyewitnesses, physical evidence linking Dunham to the crime, DNA evidence linking him to the gun and a VIDEO TAPED CONFESSION, a jury acquitted Dunham of all charges
