  1. Muslim wife beater AG Keith Ellison would be high on the list.
    As AG he controlled this.
    And when he fails to garner a conviction, the white patriarchy will be blamed.

    3rd term Obama very much wants riots as he did in his first two terms

    1. They’re gonna riot regardless of the outcome. But I think he’s gonna walk and it’ll set off a nation wide upheaval. If the idiots wander into the burbs, expect shootouts and lots of black clad bodies.

      1. The only winners here aside from Burn,Loot,and murder,are thee FloydFam.. 27million lottery win and got rid of Overdose victim JunkyGeorge. Who must have been a constant pain in the ass!

    2. I don’t like Ellison, but I think he had no choice, or he made a valid evaluation of the circumstances.

      He knew the evidence was awful, but went ahead anyway, b/c if he didn’t, he’d get destroyed by the left. If he went ahead and by some miracle there’s a conviction, his leftist bona-fides are confirmed. If he went ahead and lost, he can say “I tried” to the left and blame it on the jury.

      And he loses nothing to the right regardless: No trial = justice served, trial with acquittal = justice served.

      The riots are inevitable either way. Because that’s what “they” want.

      1. Ellison is showboating, as can be illustrated by the number of charges, and the amount of outside help he had to get to prosecute.

        They might have gotten him for depraved indifference, but the mob would never accept that.

  2. The mob wants blood and it will not be denied it’s day in the streets. Scapegoats can never be innocent.

  3. Remember what happened after the first Rodney King trial in Los Angeles nearly 30 years ago? The police officers were found not guilty, the mob didn’t like the verdict, and rioted.

    Just to keep it happy, a second trial was held in another location. The verdict was more to the mob’s liking and the aftermath was relatively peaceful.

    1. The problem was Chauvin was not a doctor. He wasn’t even a paramedic. Floyd was on a cocktail that included downers and uppers and his resistance was an indication of stimulants. There was no obvious medical treatment in the medical vocabulary of a cop. They called the paramedics and it took something like 10 or 12 minutes for them to arrive and the hostile mob delayed treatment.

      1. This may or may not be applicable to Minneapolis but in many jurisdictions, Narcan administration is so routine as to be commonplace and not just by medical practitioners. It is not only used for opioids but for Meth. I would guess that, more often than not, the patient’s precise drug cocktail is unknown. It’s frequently used by policemen prior to the arrival of EMTs. In some states, it is, for all intents and purposes, available over the counter to family members, friends, care givers….. And, even more telling, in some states its use is covered under the “Good Samaritan” umbrella
        I’m not claiming anything about how appropriate it would be in Floyd’s case just curious as to why it received no attention.

        georgie also had the arteries of a lifelong
        junkie. if he hadn’t eaten his stash, he
        probably wouldn’t have died… well,
        that day, anyway.

  4. The Media: chokehold, chokehold, chokehold, chokehold, choked George Floyd to death, chokehold, chokehold, chokehold, knee on neck-chokehold, chokehold, chokehold, choked Floyd to death, I can’t breathe, chokehold, chokehold … ad nauseum

    The Prosecution’s STAR witness: “Chauvin never used a chokehold”

    “Inciting a MOB to violence” is NOT protected by the First Amendment. Every media outlet should be sued … just as they were (still are) being sued by the Covington HS kid.

    1. Never mind the term. If a knee is pressed on your neck with the force George was subjected to, you would be singing a different tune.

      1. Watch the whole event. He blew every chance he had for better treatment. It’s not a matter of words – a chokehold is not what the cop was using, his technique – kneeling on the side of the neck – was in the manual.
        BTW, I don’t plan on singing any tune remotely like that.

      2. NB welfare guy, so now you demonstrate why you hate Trump,bc you are NOT very smart. None of this would be an issue if Georgy had not passed a fake $20 , and this was not his first time using funny money, or is that above your IQ grade?

        1. Dear Idiot GYM:
          So he deserved the death penalty for that? Give your knuckled head a shake.

        go to “louder with crowder”… the prosecution
        has actually been backing off the knee on neck
        fairytale as video is showing the knee was on
        his shoulder & back.

  5. Scott Adams is correct that the coming riots are the responsibility of the media but they are also responsible for all the riots to date as they are an integral part of the institutional left that oversees, enables and finances the street theatre of the left. When Floyd died the media coverage was entirely devoid of objective detail, speculative, repetitive, opinionated, predictable, and with total saturation. And that was just the Canadian media.

  6. They just want to riot. They need an excuse. If they don’t have an excuse, they riot anyway. Smart people have already moved out of Democrat run cities. A blood bath is coming regardless of the verdict. I predict rioting, looting, burning and general mayhem. If you haven’t moved away, hire exceedingly well armed preferably Black guards and board up your windows.

  7. A guy who was on his way back to prison died because he was full of drugs and had heart problems. He was not choked to death as the autopsy proved.

    1. @ Very Old White Guy:
      Like some others here, you, very old guy, get checked for dementia, your powers of reasoning are in severe decline.

      1. Mine aren’t.
        Watch the clip. Read the toxicology. Follow the trial.
        Educate yourself.

    2. Old Wise One(not being sarcastic!),
      You really can tell people brain fried by the CNN coolaid drinking.
      They believe the Mainstream Media and Politicians never lie and get sucked into be blindsided when they’re bullshit is exposed.

      1. The rest of it still hadn’t been absorbed into his system yet. He had enough in him to kill an elephant.

  8. …it won’t be called “rioting and looting”, that’s racist. Kindly refer to it as “grief-shopping” in the Future….

  9. That Law of Self Defense blog is outstanding. Keep that near the top every day or so. The prosecution’s case is falling apart before their very eyes.

    1. Branca is getting more and more incredulous by the day at the half-assed job the prosecution is doing. It’s hard for me to see what their angle is. Are they so confident the jury will convict regardless of the evidence that they know they can phone it in? Are they trying to throw the prosecution because the DA’s office wants the subsequent riots? Are they so emotionally invested in the narrative that they can’t see how weak the case they’re presenting is?

      1. Not to worry … Nancy Pelosi will Lead the ENTIRE group of House Democranks in an 8min. Kneeling session.

        If they wanted to be honest about it … they’d all (each one) be kneeling on a squirming 260lb drugged-out, bodybuilding, career criminal, who wanted to escape. No problem finding 200+ of these prototypical criminals for their demonstration. Let’s see if they can kneel on the broncking bulls for 8min.

        You see … their “demonstration” is a LIE. Misinformation. Deception. They should all be sued, individually for inciting a RIOT.

      2. I’ve yet to check out that blog; it sounds promising and I may well get to it. I’ll tell you what I expect: some very smart and seasoned lawyer telling me you’d never catch him doing stupid shit like this. He may well have seen similar situations and handled them better, and I might learn something, but I expect the ratio of smug brag to real insight to be rather high. I could be wrong, of course.

        If you’re a smart lawyer, you simply don’t bring a case like this to court unless you absolutely have to. There may be prosecutors in that room who could be elsewhere and choose not to, but they are not at all smart. There is no doubt some technique to making out a case in court, but no technique can give you a win when you haven’t got one. You can’t tap dance on dog shit. You’re doing well if you can just shovel it efficiently. And I expect these poor sods are shovelling this shit with all the style and grace the task demands, which ain’t much.

  10. Sadly, what doesn’t get talked about is that obeying an officer’s instructions isn’t optional.
    There’s a distinct reason why Floyd found himself in the position he was in.

    1. But, but, but … he was having a *ahem* … “medical emergency”

      “I can’t breathe”

      Cross examination: “In your career, have you ever had a perp FAKE a medical emergency to escape restraint?” … “Yes”.

  11. Yes, I accept that Floyd was no model citizen but still, it is obvious that cruel and excessive unnecessary force was used on him. It is so obvious. Why can’t you all see and accept that. Handcuffed behind his back, 4 cops present, gasping for air, pleading.

    1. From the very first video of Floyd being arrested and restrained … he is resisting. He continues to resist in multiple ways shapes and forms during the entire exchange. Pro Tip: a handcuffed perp. can wrestle, bull rush officers, and escape. Would you have the man shot as he is trying to escape? The officers job is to prevent physical escalation. Period. That is his primary goal.

      Floyd is responsible for his own death. End of story.

      No. I absolutely do NOT approve of police using excessive or deadly force unless there is no alternative. And any officer who uses ANY force against a compliant arrestee … should be summarily fired.

    2. Mainstream media’s reporting is very terribly deceptive to one theme they promote and any and all facts are conveniently ignored or under reported.
      There are other avenues of reporting that have facts that you can review and make an objective decision.
      Those facts are with videos and pictures not reported by the Mainstream Media.

    3. Floyd was complaining about shortness of breath from the beginning, long before Chauvin showed up. An ambulance was requested 3 minutes after Chauvin arrived. A minute later the ambulance call was upgraded to an emergency. The timeline I am reading from says ambulance arrived 7 minutes after calling and he was dead. I have seen the time elsewhere as 10 minutes. Any effing idiot knows that if someone says, “I can’t breath,” he can breath.

    4. “Handcuffed behind his back, 4 cops present, gasping for air, pleading.”

      I can tolerate a lot from this site, but if it turns into a poetry blog, I’m out!

      1. Threats…
        Blue is for violets, red is for roses. Don’t let the door hit your ass when it closes.

    5. In hindsight, the cops should have taken his keys and leave him to die in his vehicle to avoid the shitstorm but they had a suspect passing bad bills and appeared to follow procedures. Under Chauvin’s knee, Floyd could move his head to align with his body to freely breath but his lungs were filling with fluid as was determined in autopsy. Are cops bullies – yes but so what. The streets are full of screw-ups. Most take too many drugs. Watching someone die is sad and unpleasant.

      “cruel and excessive unnecessary force”

      lemme see…
      “served 5 years in Harris County Jail for a
      1st-degree felony… assault and armed robbery.”
      “5 convictions related to theft, possession,
      and trade of coke”

      not a tiny, or close to reasonable man…
      “6 foot 6 inches”

      tell me, canuckguy… how would you have
      handled this?

    7. Loaded on Fentanyl, numbskull, Triple the lethal dose from the disclosed autopsy report.

      “I ate too many drugs”. Hard of hearing, LIEberal frtcatcher?

      Stop believing the constant BS the mass media spoon feeds you, they lie for a living!

  12. He might be convicted but I’m going to guess that it’ll be hung.

    I must imagine the jury is in fear for their lives. My wife and kids would be in hiding right now if I were on that US jury. As I juror I would be spending my free time hiring an agent and writing a book about the trial just to pay for the home repairs and security costs.

    Not to make it about race but the jury is 50/50 with three alternates (and I just made it about race).

  13. The rioting will begin…guilty or not guilty…..that’s why the Guard is surrounding the Capital.
    This summer will be a tipping point for America and the west….we are not immune to this deep rooted calculation.
    It’s 1968….and more

  14. The Black Lie That Matters is that Floyd was some saint.
    I know a lot of fat ugly white women feel otherwise, but he was a subhuman and its better he’s now compost.
    Chauvin was some kind of coward-bully turd in his own right so I have no sympathy.
    Like many here, they’ll riot no matter what like its 2020 x 1968 because honky.

  15. Verdict ? Riot.
    No Verdict? Riot.
    Of course they are going to Burn Loot Murder,inside the safe confines of their Democrat Enclave.
    The Progressives own all of this.
    The appeasers and enablers of the mob are lowest of the low.
    Cowardly oath breakers,who will say anything for power.
    As the enclaves burn,I will lift a beer and cheer for better drone coverage.
    The thuggery is all on the Democrats.
    Let them burn some more,eventually their crusted on voters will revolt,if they survive Democrat Help long enough to see the obvious.
    Those who loose the mob,believing they can benefit from the madness,most often wind up lynched by the same people they attempt to exploit.
    An leading indicator will be “Urban murder of Journalists”,for even the true believing Democrat can recognize the malice with which the media manipulates them.
    That loathsome soft racism that oozes out of every Progressive pore,incites all.

  16. I am loving it. A jackbooted thug who abused the system his entire life getting railroaded and sacrificed by the very system he served to diligently. Thrown under the bus with the same cynicism with which he lied on the stand, abused people and the hid behind qualified immunity.

    It would really be poetic justice if Chauvin got lynched in prison.

      1. Keep licking the mirror enema666, I am sure the image of a drooling imbecile will come off eventually.

  17. The prosecutor should have charged Chauvin with manslaughter, or negligent homicide; either charge might have resulted in a conviction. To say Chauvin intended to murder will be difficult to prove.
    There will be riots regardless.

  18. There’s a cynical part of me that’s rooting for riots. People fleeing the cities for the burbs will do wonders for the value of my house, especially in this market.

  19. In that cIip, FIoyd says, “Ahhh…ahh…I ate too many piIIs”

    If the cops heard that, they shouId have caIIed for an ambuIance immediateIy. But that doesn’t mean FIoyd was murdered. He died of an overdose because the peopIe hoIding him down have grown accustomed to criminaIs acting crazy aII the time.

    They are guiIty of not beIieving him when they shouId have……but that’s about it.

      1. Have you seen the START of this arrest? The police treated him with far more respect and deference than I would have. The perp caused every escalation and persistence of the arresting officers. I never saw any over-the-top hyper-emotional response by Chauvin or any of the other officers.

        1. Then it is a good thing that you’re not a cop.
          Look, there is absolutely no interest among cops when he complains that he can’t breathe. They could not care less. The knew that qualified immunity would protect them if/when he kicks the bucket so why bother making sure that he doesn’t? “If he lives, ok, if he dies, even better, we’re protected anyway” was their attitude. Except that they miscalculated, and now they are cynically thrown under the bus. Same level of cynicism that the cops have shown during the arrest.
          A pox on all their houses. FETE.

          1. I suppose to someone with your limited cognitive ability this obvious statement of truth may sound like mindreading. It isn’t.

        “He died of depraved indifference.”

        so sad… after years of treating his body
        like a temple… to be cut down in the
        very flower of his exemplary life. [/sarc]

        dumbstick junkie killed himself… it just
        took a few decades.

        ask yourself why his dealer took the
        fifth. no honor among felonious
        morons.

        1. “so sad…”

          Congrats another strawman defeated to your hart’s content.

    1. He was refusing transport. It would have been faster for them to take him to the hospital (like the previous time he was arrested) but he reused transport.

      1. He was a piece of shit junkie, a worthless thug, the world is better off with him dead than alive.
        We both agree?
        Good.
        Now let’s try to remember that and allow for a second thought to enter our minds. Ready?
        Here it goes: Chauvin is a piece of shit thug with a history of hiding behind qualified immunity. He was perfectly comfortable with letting the junkie die. He would have gotten away with it had there been no recording. He didn’t. And now he is a victim of the very system that he abused for so many years.
        You can agree or disagree with the above. But that statement is true or false independent of what a piece of shit Floyd was.

        1. You totally avoided my point. I don’t care whether he was a junkie. By law, the police couldn’t force him into a vehicle. They wanted to get him into a vehicle. He refused. That’s my point, not the made-up tangent you headed off on.

          Hospital or jail required he get into a vehicle. He refused transport. So they sat there until Floyd either changed his mind or passed out (thereby giving automatic consent, as learned during my brief time working ambulance). The officers knew he was on drugs by his past records and current behavior.

          Are you arguing that they knew Floyd ingested a fatal dose of drugs while he was still refusing transport? That would result in a dilemma. The officers followed the law for what they knew.

          1. In what universe you can’t be loaded into a cop car without your consent if you’re under arrest?

  20. He couldn’t breathe because he was in cardiac arrest due to the fentanyl, methamphetamine, and other drugs in his system. This started well before they tried to put him in the car.

    The heart wasn’t efficiently pumping oxygenated blood creating the sensation of shortness of breath no matter how much air he could draw into his lungs. He could speak and yell and whine because He had plenty of air volume and flow to produce sound.

    Chauvin may have applied pressure to the back of the neck, but this is heavily muscled bone and sinew. There’s no way that this would transfer sufficient force to damage Floyd’s airway.

    So, yes, he could breathe fine.

    No, he didn’t die from mechanical asphyxiation.

    He died because the drugs he took, supplied to him by his drug dealing friend, suppressed his cardiopulmonary system to the point of failure.
