Along with every other variant of corruption that underpins the US, we've now seen their judicial process revert to mob intimidation.
"Find him guilty or we'll burn you down". Even a member of congress publicly makes that threat.
Expect an appeal...this ain't over. There is NO way that jury was not influenced by the threat of mass rioting across the country if they had acquitted him.
I think the cop was dumb, brutal and well out of line. Manslaughter was an appropriate charge. But murder requires pre-mediation and some level of intent. There is no evidence that he intended to kill the prisoner. None.
That is true. No evidence or even inference of intent to kill = absolutely "not murder" = mob intimidation of jury to judge not murder as murder
Look for appeal removing at least the murder verdict .. followed by mob property destruction (and likely far far worse) to the extreme
I was going to follow this trial, but I didn't.

Pretty much....
...he should only been charged with a negligence charge, for not recognising that the suspect was having a health issue while under his authority.
....but even then, being covid positive and swallowing one's baggy with 7 times the lethal dose of fentanyl isn't an easy thing to ascertain in the moment.
This was a show trial to appease idiots.

They got two veteran police officers to testify against Derek Chauvin's actions.
They were riot/police command/scared shitless...
Candace Owens decried the guilty verdict against former Minneapolis police Officer Derek Chauvin as "mob justice," telling Fox News' Tucker Carlson that "no person can say this was a fair trial."
Speaking of Floyd, Owens told Carlson:
"You know, the media came out — let's not forget this, Tucker — the media came out and told us that this was a man who was just getting his life together, he was a good member of society, and he got mixed up because a racist, white police officer had it out for him and killed him. All of that fell apart...we now know, of course, that he had enough fentanyl in him, it was three times the lethal dosage — three times the lethal dosage — in him when he died. But nobody cares because the media was successful in putting out a narrative and they kept hitting that narrative."
Owens went on to say that "the reason Democrats are happy is because they realize, of course, the media supports them and [that] now means that Democrats can get whatever they want because they can create a narrative and then they can treat people like pawns and basically get them to say, 'if we don't get what we want, we will riot, we will loot, we will send these people out like soldiers to destroy neighborhoods.' And that is exactly what has happened."
I find the triumphant gloating of politicians of the left and its media cadres to be obscene.
Anyone from the outside the US watching this farcical and tawdry display of smug anti white animosity who still believes that America is a model democracy, the leader of the free world and stands for truth and justice is brain dead.
America is rotten to its core and we in more civilised nations need to maintain a safe distance from its influence via its media, culture and political reach.
Adept at dispersing its poison to the world, it is the "covid" of cultures and a citadel of hate, violence and greed which it is more than happy to share with other nations that cannot think for themselves. At a time when it needs political and moral leadership to rebuild and redefine itself, it was faced with a choice between Trump and Biden. Tweedledee and Tweedle-very-fucking-dumb.
If anyone thinks that the lynching of a stupid, callous cop is going to fix what's broken in that idiot nation, they are deluding themselves. The hate between races won't go away. The cop was not the problem. He was a product of a country that believes that violence is a solution and racial hatred is the norm. His conviction won't stop blacks hating whites or vice versa.
May god bless America...because it's going to need all the help it can get.

The Democrats need to keep people stupid, otherwise they aint voting for them.
They are doing a very fine job of it.
In what sensible and civilised country would people be permitted to vote without verification of their citizenship status?
What sensible and civilised country would effectively invite people from other countries to simply walk across their border?
White Americans should be VERY afraid for their future.

The democrats are not sensible and civilized. They need illegals and dead people to vote for them if they have any chance of winning elections.
And working class white Americans should be very afraid. What is happening to white South Africans, is their fate.
As calls continue to echo across the country for local and state governments to address concerns about police conduct, Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot (D) unveiled her newest police reform idea: Force cops to get permission before engaging in a foot chase with a suspect. :crazy:
There will be no reforms in the US unless and until some enlightened politician gains enough credibility from all Americans to convince them that their country is deeply flawed and that a major re adjustment of its culture and communal values is essential.
This is extremely unlikely. Good politicians don't rise far in the US. They can't afford it.
Americans of all shades need to recognise that racism and hate is on both sides of the black/white divide. That is why American cops kill black offenders.
The blood is on all their hands.
In the last few days we saw an American cop kill a 16 year old girl who was attacking another person with a kitchen knife. His first reaction when the victim assailed her victim was to pull out his pistol and empty his magazine in her. It simply was not an option to grab and restrain her. A gun will fix it. If they are not trained or capable of restraining and disarming a 16 year old girl, something is seriously wrong. And something IS seriously wrong.
This is America's values reflected in its law enforcement and other government agencies including its idiot politicians. Violence will solve violence. On a street in the hood, or in a country on the other side of the planet.
Fuck America.

The cop was completely justified putting down that lunging and knife wielding animal engaged in the act.

I won't debate you on that. Largely because you're a clueless moron who's never been in a situation that requires critical decision making in a matter of seconds but still feels the need to demonstrate your lack of practical knowledge and experience.
It would have been extremely unlikely that a frenzied 16 year old girl with a small kitchen knife would have inflicted fatal wounds within the time it would have taken for the cop to move towards here and hit her with a roundhouse right, or applied the safe choke hold on her. It is possible that she might have caused injury, but nothing that could be life threatening.
But his first and only reaction was to kill her. And that is not his fault. He's just another product of a society that has devolved to the point that such a response is seen as reasonable and acceptable.
A 16 yr old girl had to die because that is how it's done in America. That is how Americans deal with crises.
Didn't bother reading any of your drivel after the first sentence.
Couldn't care less what Australian police institutions version of a village idiot thinks about the US.
Did I say "clueless moron"?
I flatter you.
Funny how you've been arguing that only police and soldiers should be able to defend themselves...then you argue that a police officer was wrong for defending an unarmed teenager from getting stabbed...
...if he was wrong for shooting her, shouldn't she have been able to return fire if she too had a sidearm? :JC_howdy:
Is self defence a right or not?

What the fuck are you dribbling about?
I shall let you into a trade secret. Police in Australia and the UK are trained NOT to resort to lethal force if it is avoidable. They are taught that their role is to save ALL lives involved, even the offender.
I have watched the video of her killing. That cop had non lethal options, yet he chose to just draw and fire. Automatically. Because THAT is the American way. By my assessment of that situation, he had options available in the circumstances that were not lethal.
Now, perhaps you've also seen the video and have an opinion. But as you have no knowledge or experience on police tactics, your opinion is worth less that a drip of rats piss. If that incident had occurred in a more civilised and rational country, that child would be alive today. But American values, as you so capably reflect, are that killing people is an effective method of defusing a situation.
I have been involved in much more dangerous and critical situations than that, and shot nobody. Everyone lived...some even with gunshot wounds.
How about you? Ever been in a life threatening situation which required you to act instantly? Tell us about it.

The adolescent male was on an empty streetcar and no threat to anyone, and a policeman shot him eight times..

Rules 'for white people' posted at barricaded entrance of George Floyd Square in Minneapolis, the 'sacred space' where he died
https://www.theblaze.com/news/rules-for-white-people-george-floyd-square?utm_source=theblaze-dailyPM&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Daily-Newsletter__PM%202021-04-22&utm_term=ACTIVE%20LIST%20-%20TheBlaze%20Daily%20PM
Remember George Floyd Square in Minneapolis? The "autonomous zone" of several barricaded blocks where Floyd died last May that the city has allowed to exist — and that's now controlled by thuggish, left-wing militants?
Well, if you're itching to pay a visit to George Floyd Square anytime soon — and you happen to be white — you'll need to pay heed to the rules governing the "sacred space for community, public grief, and protest."
What are the details?
Jorge Ventura, a field reporter for the Daily Caller, took video outside George Floyd Square and posted it Wednesday to Twitter. And besides the traffic barricades and other objects spread across the street, Ventura spotted a sign spelling out guidelines for the square:
It offers three general rules to everyone who enters as an "invited guest":
"Enter with reverence, humility, and openness."
"Care for each other by wearing a mask and ask others to wear a mask."
"Honor the space as a place to connect and grieve as caring humans."
Fair enough.
But if you're white...
However, the longest and most detailed part of the sign is preceded by a heading that reads, "For White people in particular." And the rules are as follows:
"Decenter yourself and come to listen, learn, mourn, and witness. Remember you are here to support, not to be supported."
"Be mindful of whether your volume, pace, and movements are supporting or undermining your efforts to decenter yourself."
"Seek to contribute to the energy of the space, rather than drain it. Bring your own processing to other white folks so that you will not harm [black, indigenous, and people of color]."
"Consider if you want or need to take photos and post them. Do not take photos of other people without their consent."
"If you witness white folks doing problematic things, speak up with compassion to take the burden [off of] Black folks and our siblings of color whenever appropriate. Seek to engage rather than escalate, so that it can be a learning moment rather than a disruption."
How did people react?
Some observers saw nothing wrong with the rules for whites, while others had more than a few problems with them:
"I wonder how everyone would react if any sign.. anywhere.. for anything.. said, 'For black people in particular,'" one commenter wondered.
"How about as a 'white' American I'll just do whatever the hell I want within the confines of the law in any public space?" another user noted. "No woke pandering here. The people that cave to this idiocy are worse than the ones who demand it."
"The U.S. has truly lost it," another user declared. "It's incredible to watch."
"The most f***ed up part of all of this is that so many white 'allies' submit to this garbage," another commenter asserted. "The tables have turned, and honestly it's like 2% of the population feeding us this garbage. Black, white, Asian, whatever, rational humans need to object to this."
Here's Ventura's clip of his moment at the George Floyd Square's barricade:
https://twitter.com/VenturaReport/status/1384949303429447686?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1384949303429447686%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.theblaze.com%2Fnews%2Frules-for-white-people-george-floyd-square
Anything else?
TheBlaze in March took note of NewsNation correspondent Brian Entin's rather unsettling encounter with a pair of militants who showed up while he was on camera just outside the Floyd memorial and told him to leave in no uncertain terms.
"You're gonna be in a bad situation in a second," one of them told Entin.
After a short exchange that included Entin explaining that he's a media member, the militant shot back, "I don't give a f*** who you are." Entin took the hint and departed.

Most Mass Shooters 'Dad-Deprived Males': Author Warren Farrell
Key commonalities for most mass shooters in the United States are that they are male and that they lack a father figure in their lives, author Warren Farrell says.
"There's common denominators among mass shooters, the most obvious is that they're male—98 percent are male. A second common denominator is that they're almost all dad-deprived males," Farrell told The Epoch Times' "American Thought Leaders."

4 inch blade
1st, not the issue, especially when going after head / neck area
2nd, it was far larger even if measured directly from the obvious & deceptive 45 degree angle shot
This is where people who enter these arguments cause confusion.
A police officer in that situation is compelled to make a risk assessment in a matter of seconds. That risk assessment must take into account all factors, including the nature of any weapon that is involved.
The knife being held by the kid on the bus could probably inflict a lethal injury, but he was nowhere near any possible victim.
The knife being weilded by the 16 year old girl was a kitchen knife and under the right conditions could inflict a lethal wound. But in that case the potential victim was fighting back and protecting herself and kid was hardly adept at using a knife as a lethal weapon. It is worth noting that kitchen knifes are typically thinner and less robust than knives designed as weapons. There were options that could have stopped the situation, one being a solid punch, another being a safe choke hold and yet another, at the range the police was from the offender, a shot to the lower body or legs.
But as I've said above, I do not blame the cop. I suspect he reacted in accordance with his training and established procedures in the American way of policing.
The point is that before killing someone, you need to exercise a proper risk assessment that non police witnesses do not require. That is the burden placed on officers who choose to exercise lethal force. Get it right, and you're as hero. Get it wrong and you're a murderer.

Despite bodycam footage showing that the 16 year old was about to stab another person when the police officer shot her, Psaki blamed "systemic racism and implicit bias" before promising more "laws and legislation" for police departments around the country.

Cops are retiring in droves, there is a recruiting crisis, andapplications are historically low.
Number of NYPD officers who left the force or retired last year spiked 75% amid anti-police hostility.
To be expected. Being a cop in the US is bad gig now.
But the causes of this crisis are not being adequately discussed because it appears white Americans are scared.

Only working class Caucasian Americans.....the wealthy and powerful will always have protection.
America is at war with itself again. All the resentment, fury and animosity of the past are now rising to the top as white Americans reel against the guilt machine pitted against them. Their ability to defend themselves with reason and sense wanes daily as those that feel vengeful become emboldened to resort to violence. It's easier.
Its boasting and chest beating claiming it is the "greatest nation on Earth" is in tatters and its international reputation and standing erodes at an alarming rate. Dictators are pointing to the current State of the US and asking their citizens "Is this what democracy creates? Is this what you want?"
American hypocrisy and double standards are clear and obvious to those who observe with an objective eye. The rest of us need to step away and leave America to sort out its own mess.

Hey, have you received a vaccination yet?
Most Americans are good people, I believe. It is their politicians that have perverted the country and set the stage for ruin.
I haven't got the jab yet. I believe our rollout will reach us end of May. Given my...er...longevity I believe I'll get mine around then.

You would have been vaccinated here at least one month ago. I turned 52 two days ago and I have been vaccinated.

I don't know any black Americans, so I defer to your judgment.
Our vaccine stocks were to be delivered in March, but the EU stopped the shipment because the manufacturer breached the terms of supply to the EU.
So we're manufacturing it here now and it's taken some time to get organised. We are not particularly worried about that, because we have no real cases of COVID in the country.

But, in order to get back to normal and open up travel and tourism again, there needs to be immunity..
I get my first dose of Astrazeneca tomorrow.
We're getting there. Once we get the system up and running we'll get vaccinated pretty quickly. There's no need for panic. Nobody is getting on an airplane any time in the next 2 years.

We'll both be fully vaccinated by August 1..
We'll be given proof of vaccination which will allow us to travel to the EU....at least that's our understanding.
The current vaccinations only prevent symptoms from appearing. It does not prevent transmission by an asymptomatic carrier to another. You may be inoculated against symptoms, but you can still carry. If there is a breakout in your city a week before you're destined to leave, you won't be going anywhere regardless of the vaccination unless the entire country you're visiting has also been inoculated. International travel during this plague will be problematic and we have no means of estimating the many millions of potential consequences of borders opening.
As we have just witnessed here in Australia, people can "dodge" travel bans from specific countries by simply routing through so called "safer" countries. The incident here involved two Australian cricketers in India (travel from which is now banned here) travelling to Doha, Qatar (from which travel is not banned) and then travelling from Qatar to Australia.
We have now banned travellers who have recently been in high risk areas.
Now imagine this on a global scale if international travel restrictions are lifted. People from a high risk area, say India, who wish to travel to the UK may seek passage to a country which has not banned travel from India, then route through that country to the UK.
In other words, before travel you will hope that there has not been an outbreak in YOUR country, there is NOT an outbreak in your destination country and that your destination country forbids entry to travellers either from a high risk country or have travelled through a high risk country. Immigration officials will need to be certain of your recent travel history.
Without ALL nations co-operating on sharing traveller's history with all other nations, there is no way to know where the 350 people sitting in your aircraft come from, nor the many thousands of travellers moving through your departure and destination airports.
Like I said, don't pack just yet.

Recent results from real-world studies show the COVID-19 vaccines protect against asymptomatic infection, suggesting they also drastically reduce virus transmission.

So, the cop is adjudged guilty of murder.
Along with every other variant of corruption that underpins the US, we've now seen their judicial process revert to mob intimidation.
"Find him guilty or we'll burn you down". Even a member of congress publicly makes that threat.
Expect an appeal...this ain't over. There is NO way that jury was not influenced by the threat of mass rioting across the country if they had acquitted him.
I think the cop was dumb, brutal and well out of line. Manslaughter was an appropriate charge. But murder requires pre-mediation and some level of intent. There is no evidence that he intended to kill the prisoner. None.
There were members of congress, and the vice president telling jurors that the only accepted verdict was guilty on all countrs. Don't let the evidence distract you.
That's justice, American style.

The officers were acquitted so naturally those upset with the verdict robbed and ransacked businesses in LA's Koreatown.

I don't recall white people rioting when OJ was acquitted of murdering two white people.
Or Michael Jackson acquitted of molesting white children.
Black rage is a thing. But talking about it makes you a "racist", as does any conversation about race that doesn't correspond with critical race theory.
Although, to be fair, the cops in the Rodney King matter should have been punished, as does the cop that killed Floyd. Police brutality in the US is also a thing (not just the US mind).
What is critical to us in the "free world" is that we break away from and completely reject the flawed and erroneous concept that America is "the leader of the free world". If this is our leader, we are in subterranean excrement.

At least in the nineties during the trial of the officers involved in the Rodney King beating there was some semblance of judicial independence.
I am never sure.
King was brutalised by a gang. I thought then and now that it demanded some form of sanction against the offenders. That wasn't right.
But trying to second guess American justice is like trying to unravel China's claim on human rights.

It would seem that you and Freud not only share similar opinions, but a degree of illiteracy.
My perplexity was based on wondering why "my own backyard" relates to what happens in the US? Especially when the sole witness would appear to be a deceitful mendicant like Freud.
If that qualifies as clarity then I hope I never have to hear Freud present a dissertation.

Having agreed with the crackpot Dink on virtually nothing before, he finally, sigh, hit one on the nose
so rather than reply to your nonsense and insult further,
I'll just leave you to imagining yourself shining within your own imagined omnipotence
I'm only a crackpot to you because I'm not buying covid or its magical juice mania.
On other things, we probably see similarly.
Don't mind Bricktop... being a petty little man is his speciality.
Agreed on that in advance of you, as you can see above
Not sure how many conspiracies you follow tho
I suspect you'd have many more conspiracies than me.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOK

I'd like to say you're wrong, but.....
Shen has a valid point
Our "democratic" choices are Trudy, Trudy or Trudy ... and following him, Liberals, Liberals, or Liberals
This is not a factor of the system itself, rather a factor of the voters of Canada who are more and more falling into liberal concepts
Yes, and media + internet influence consolidates / keeps in line so many of our "voters"
All of which = those of us who have not succumbed to the above "wokeness" crapola have no effective voice or choice

I'm unaware of any country that has "consistently" had productive and free leadership via democracy
I can only recall a very few brief moments / flashes in time that were quickly reversed back into a major reversal of productivity
But the good thing about democracy is parties will have to improve to win, and it's hard for groups to last long enough to be horribly corrupted unlike most 3rd world countries.

I understand why. But, however good that feels, it cannot make for a good government
The problem is that all go nowhere. One person does some things good only to see someone else take over and spend their efforts reversing it all .. and back & forth and back and forth
One only achieves efficiency when the direction remains on course indefinitely .. and that is not possible in back and forth (forward / reverse) directions
The real underlying problem is that it takes a person with all the wrong qualities to get elected in the first place
= Catch 22 for having good leaders
I know that as fact as I have seen many powerful leaders closeup in our own family .. grown up with many of them .. and most of those who became successful in becoming high office politicians were "not nice or good" people who cared about anyone beyond themselves .. nor cared beyond obtaining and then retaining power

Yes, this.
I, too, have spent a lot of close quarter time with power puffers of various ilks (including ol' JT himself) and what you say rings true.
Those with the drive to govern often lack the wisdom to do so and those with the wisdom to do so often deliberately eschew politics altogether. It's certainly a conundrum.
Back in the early 2000's, I was asked more than once by local politicians to run for (municipal) office. I declined ever and always because I know for a fact that power--even on a limited or local scale--tends to corrupt. If money were taken out of the equation, it would be a different story.
You're not wrong, Ceec, in asserting that a benevolent (and wise) dictatorship would be a better option than democracy. But again... power, money, corruption will all eventually have their way (and do away) with wisdom and benevolence. It all seems like an impasse to me.
If we want to get turned into emasculated cucks, lets continue present course.
The goal of the dictatorship is to make the west great again.

During jury selection, Brandon Mitchell — a 31-year-old high school basketball coach who was known as Juror #52 before speaking publicly last week — told Judge Peter Cahill that he only heard "basic info" about the high-profile case, and was certainly not aware of any information that would hinder his ability to serve as an impartial juror.

The defense attorney for former police officer Derek Chauvin filed a motion for a new trial on Tuesday.
Attorney Eric Nelson filed the request (pdf) to a Minnesota court arguing that a new trial should be granted in the interest of justice and because an abuse of discretion had deprived Chauvin of a fair trial. He also contends that Chauvin's conviction was tainted by prosecutorial and jury misconduct, errors of law at trial, and that the verdict was contrary to law.
A suspect reportedly ambushed a Tennessee police officer who responded to a fake call, according to a Newsweek report Wednesday.

WOKE - Bobby Kennedy's Assassin Gets Paroled With Help From Bobby's Kids

U.S. Sen. Robert F. Kennedy's assassin was granted parole Friday after two of RFK's sons spoke in favor of Sirhan Sirhan's release and prosecutors declined to argue he should be kept behind bars.
The decision was a victory for the 77-year-old killer, though it does not assure his release.
The ruling by the two-person panel at Sirhan's 16th parole hearing will be reviewed over the next 90 days by the California Parole Board's staff. Then it will be sent to the governor, who will have 30 days to decide whether to grant it, reverse it or modify it.
The Kennedy's are a strange clan.
A U.S. Marine who says he rescued a baby when U.S. troops held the airport in Kabul, Afghanistan, is being investigated for going on stage at rally held by former President Donald Trump over the weekend.
"The 24th Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU) has initiated a command investigation regarding LCpl Hunter Clark's attendance at the event last weekend to determine if any DoD policies were violated. Any details pertaining to this incident are not releasable while the investigation is being conducted," a spokesman for the unit said.

The American military has become as woke and political as higher education and Hollywood.
America is a festering mess. All its chickens...corruption, racism, inequality, multiculturalism, economy, gun ownership madness and delusion...are coming home and roosting in the halls of power.
America is NOT, and has never been, the leader of the free world. That is its own marketing slogan, not ours. America is as far from a model of effective democracy as you can get outside of China or North Korea. America is incapable of electing enough high quality politicians to its perverted ruling class in order to form effective government.
American is the dumbest nation on earth, because it is fooled itself into believing it is far, far better than it is in reality. One only has to look at its long list of foreign policy failures and illegal wars to understand why the rest of the world is shaking its collective head and looking elsewhere for a strong, reliable friend.
I've been saying this for years in these forums and faced criticism for being "anti American". I note that some commentators in this forum, including Americans, are now nodding in agreement.

We must carry on business as usual despite aggressive bad decisons from government.
The US and Canada have become dysfunctional. Both countries seem hellbent on becoming third worldish. And in both countries a lot people want their country to split.
Eye-opening poll shows more than 40% of Biden voters and half of Trump voters agree its time to split the country
https://www.theblaze.com/news/poll-us-voters-favor-splitting-country?utm_source=theblaze-dailyPM&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Daily-Newsletter__PM%202021-10-01&utm_term=ACTIVE%20LIST%20-%20TheBlaze%20Daily%20PM
A surprising new poll published this week has found that many supporters of President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump actually agree on something; namely, that the time has come to split the country.
The poll — conducted by the Center for Politics at the University of Virginia in partnership with Project Home Fire — found that 41% of Biden voters and 52% of Trump voters favor dividing the country in two between Democratic-voting and Republican-voting states.
Here's the relevant portion of the survey:
Significant numbers of both Trump and Biden voters show a willingness to consider violating democratic tendencies and norms if needed to serve their priorities. Roughly 2 in 10 Trump and Biden voters strongly agree it would be better if a "President could take needed actions without being constrained by Congress or courts," and roughly 4 in 10 (41%) of Biden and half (52%) of Trump voters at least somewhat agree that it's time to split the country, favoring blue/red states seceding from the union.
Respondents were specifically asked to respond to the following statement: "The situation in America is such that I would favor [Blue/Red] states seceding from the union to form their own separate country."
The results show that nearly half of Americans from both major political parties believe the nation's political divide has become so toxic and irreparable that secession may well be the best solution.
It was part of an alarming trend uncovered by the poll, in which the majority of respondents expressed marked disillusionment with the current system of government.
More than 60% of Biden and Trump voters reportedly said they viewed America as "less a representative democracy and more a system that is run by and rigged for the benefit of the wealthy."

Isaac Newton wouldn't argue that.
Mohammed Noor, the Somali policeman who shot Australian Justine Damond, has had his sentence reduced to 4 years and 9 months.
He shot a petite unarmed woman who was wearing her undies... She had no criminal record.
And Mohammed Noor was under a lawsuit for assaulting a woman when the shooting of Justine Damond occurred.
While Derek Chauvin got 22,5 years for following proper procedure against a 6´6ft meth-addicted, corona infested career criminal who was resisting arrest.
But Mohammed is a "po black boy who worships Islam".

Kyle Rittenhouse shouldnt even be on trial.
A skateboard to the head is lethal.
The rioters tried to murder him.
He was well within his rights to defend himself.
Kyle Rittenhouse deserves a medal for courage.
