Genuinely cannot believe he was even tried much less convicted. Was deployed all of 2020 so I didn't see much of the riots and outrage personally, but geez. This is ridiculous.
Even more surprising is the fact that Kyle Rittenhouse was acquitted. Should have never been charged in the first place, but liberal-left wing places love to make criminals the victim and go after the law-abiding citizen with the full weight of the government.

George Floyd caused his own death and died from a drug overdose.

I was so thankful he got acquitted. But like you said, never should have been charged in the first place. The Left is so Anti-American it is sad.

His knee was on the shoulder blade area and an approved restraint at the time.
George Floyd caused his own death and died from a drug overdose.
That's all that needs to be said.

Wouldn't be able to spring him- state charges.

Interesting. How so?

Only the governor can do this I think.

but the media ran with the lies and billions of dollars in damages and multiple death came out of it.

He’ll get pardoned before Trump leaves.

I watched it. If chauvin would've died while floyd was kneeling on his neck the same way floyd would be in prison for life.
What point are you even trying to make? It's, at best, an incredibly sloppy attempt at a 1 to 1 comparison. So much so that your point doesn't make logical sense.

If chauvin died while floyd was sitting on his neck what would've happened to floyd?
A cop was killed in the town next to mine and they shut the town down to find the killer. Threw the constitution out the window, doing unlawful searches (checked my mom's trunk along with everyone else), helicopters everywhere, hundreds if not thousands of police. Two teens were killed there a couple of weeks ago and they're asking for witnesses. Its a double standard.

Thanks. Hadn't heard that.

And again, you're attempting to make it a 1 to 1 comparison and it's ignoring a multitude of issues before we could remotely consider the reality and the hypothetical situations similar.
It's a criminal action in almost every case for a person to physically restrain an officer so to compare a situation where an officer is legally restraining a suspect to a suspect committing a crime by the very action of restraining an officer outlines the first nonsensical portion to your argument.

What does that have to do with the case you attempted to make regarding Chauvin, it's not the same thing. Also, do you have a link to the case you referenced? It's going to be hard to debate a case that you haven't posted specifics on.

Wait till after midterms, or until after 2028 elections are done, and JD is secured to follow.

I mean, they're still claiming that
"I can't belee dis!" = "I can't breave!"
"I can't belee dis!" = "I can't breave!"

This isn’t the best argument to make.
People suffering from positional restraint asphyxia can talk. They’re using the reserves of oxygen in their lungs. Which works until it doesn’t.
