And locked in gated communities hoping and praying they never run into someone like George Floyd.
No, it's not a blessing in disguise. This has simply emboldened more this behavior by a certain segment of the nation. Blacks know all they have to do now is scream racism, threaten to burn the place down...and nothing will happen to them.
As far as the fate of the other three cops I quote a line from the movie Valkyrie: none will be spared.
Why are there any police officers still employed in any large cities? Oh they have pensions they have to protect. But do they receive their pensions in prison or in the grave? So many Negroes and others now believe that police are gunning for them that killing of police at traffic stops and outright ambushes are becoming more common and will be more common as time passes.
The entire black population is brainwashed
They are their own worst enemies and offenders
They kill themselves 21 times more than any other race demogrpahic does
Yet they are brainwashed to believe they are being all taken out by whitey
Over 93% of blacks are murdered by other blacks
They are silent and dont acknowledge th incredibly masive problem that is their own communitys problem
Another reason not to support anything they produce.
Most “set cops” are retired police, so this should end well for these celebs!
Will there be an appeal? I think we can guess how these rage monkeys will react if its overturned.
I a surprised that racist bitch Viola Davis had nothing to say. Several months ago she showed herself as the racist she is by saying “how would you like it if black polices officers were killing Caucasians”? She disgusts me.
I agree about sympathy for Chauvin. He was definitely in a no win situation.
However, the video, in my opinion, can legitimately be seen depicting negligence on his part. Whether drugs or not, people don’t want to see someone kneeling on another person’s neck, shoulders, etc. So, I’m not surprised at a charge against Chauvin.
I would have felt ok about negligent homicide, but I’m not okay with 2d degree, intentional murder. If nothing else, Chauvin showed a questionable lack of wisdom in the face of cameras recording, people addressing him, and a man on the ground whimpering.
I never thought he’d walk away from this.
And, as you say, he was the only one who knew his own state of mind, and he didn’t defend himself.
Well said.
