If you aren't under that impression, would you say that is in any way similar to how the George Floyd "investigation" was handled prior to the protests


Wasn’t he charged before the autopsy ?

After the protests, before the autopsy.

For context, practically every client I've ever represented on murder charges was arrested before the autopsy was completed.

Happened Monday the 25th. Investigation begins. 4 cops fired next day - 26th, investigated, and Chauvin arrested & charged with 3rd degree murder on Friday May 29th. AG charges other 3 cops June 3rd and increases charge on Chauvin.

Chauvin was pretty quick considering they had to separate legal duty to aid in resisting arrest that other officers called in for help and did not have autopsy showing knee directly caused death. Still don't have much on knee directly causing it but more on the delay to get off regardless of using knee to render aid especially for the 3 minutes after the original arresting officer told him he couldn't find pulse and how that fits with all Floyd's prexisting conditions on top of having Wuhan, delirium, and multiple drug cocktails in his system straining Floyd's system before Chauvin every arrived and causing him to claim breathing problems while still standing.

Reasonable people wouldn't riot or loot in first place and definitely not after seeing justice system work that quickly. Reasonable people wouldn't ignore death by cops happens more to whites and in proportion with blacks to arrests and crime committed (especially violent crime) and wouldn't make this part of black victimization and institutional racism and make it them the only lives that they can matter (with fine print only care when taken by white cop).

All Black Lives Can't Matter Until All Lives Matter Equally to All Blacks.

We can't do it for them. I believe they like other races including white can make this happen and don't think they need us to do it for them.
