pretty sure the mlk march is about racial equality, civil rights and shite not about police brutality. although police brutality may be a part of what the actual purpose of the march is.
Talk about digging in. It is okay to admit this guy was not forthcoming and it is obvious Chauvin had no chance at an acquittal. None.

So free throws are part of the game and without them it’s not the same game?

I simply read the question he was asked... and unless DC was moved into Minneapolis there is no issue with answering no to that question


Your mental gymnastics are disingenuous. The jury questions didn’t say did you attend a protest in MN. It said protest. If he went to a protest against police brutality at the international space station he should have informed the court. Chauvin’s attorney would have more than likely had a preemptive challenge.

This guy gave Chauvin legal team a layup for his appeal.

“Protests about..”

It doesn’t say “protests primarily about..”
Neither does it say “protests solely about..”
It just says “protests about.”



I think thats an opinion in reading.
its reasonable to assume that when a topic is about something it means the primary topic. With your interpretation basketball is a game about free throws, because it has free throws. the movie Interstellar is about a space robot who sacrifices himself. seems like a silly perspective.

frick dude. Basketball is a sport about putting a ball through a hoop. Free throws involve putting a ball through a hoop.

From the article.

The second asked, "Other than what you have already described above, have you, or anyone close to you, participated in protests about police use of force or police brutality?"


You forgot to post the second question. Where does it say MN?

Yes. Among other things.

There’s not one part of the game basketball is about. Dork.

This is a very lame gotcha attempt but you are very lame.

Was police brutality a topic of the DC MLK event? Yes.

So the dude lied. No?

ok so you agree basketball isnt about free throws, its about a more expansive premise than that. much like MLK march isnt about police brutality, theres more to it.

Your argument is a guy who traveled to DC for a march on Washington in a shirt declaring the guilt of a police officer (the one he ended up convicting) is being truthful when stating he did not attend a protest against police brutality?

"He was there to watch balls go in the hoop. Just because LeBron may or may not have been playing thst night, it doesn't mean this guy in a LeBron jersey knew abything about it nor can we say he was there specifically to watch LeBron."

It’s just part of the march.

Seems to be about a few things one of them being the police.

I think we have a breakthrough.
