I haven’t watched a minute of it, but closing arguments seem to be going well.

From the prosecution????? That would be a gift. Now if the jury is not full of cowards reasonable doubt has just been established by the prosecution. Wow.
Their was a camera that recorded this whole incident across the street which the prosecution did not use.
Not even a boot or punch thrown by officers was amazing even though a badge and body camera was knocked off.
Floyd was pretty strong and 3 officers couldn’t control him.
Wow, talk about prosecution trying to Railroad innocent officers with media and politicians bias.

well, the minneapolis fire department is
gonna be looking at serious overtime.

Not if you are being shot at.
The prosecutor has been droning on for what seems like hours basically begging for a conviction . Doesn’t sound like he’s very confident in the case already presented.
Funny thing … EVERY single story I’ve read in the media insists the Prosecution is proving their case and winning with ease. I’ve heard virtually nothing about the Defense case.
Because Kenji, we are now living in an age where FEELINGS trump FACTS, this is how the proggy left operates.
Their intention and wishful thinking is to try and drag the legal system along into this way of ……….ruling a country.
Pol Pot, Hitler, and Stalin would approve of this.
As this is playing out though, the prosecution looks like pathetic fools, using feelings and half truths to try and prove a case. That is typical SOP for the political left, but a court room should be/IS, a different environment, where, with an exception or two, FACTS MATTER!
If the jury members aren’t swayed by the political nonsense, they will realize old George the CON was a drug induced fool, that was loaded on meth and fentanyl, and died as a result. If the Minnesota/American Ghetto creatures want to burn down their neighbourhoods, and stores, with Biden the Meek standing by whistling DIxie, and Maxine looking ever so more guilty of incitement of insurrection, then let it happen.
If the prosecution had a strong air tight case, why all the doctors(6) in specific areas needed to testify?
Why also would the prosecutor need to use pieces of video and pictures and not run the body cam videos?
Why is the Coroner Report being ignored?
Because he is trying to create a case that would have been thrown out in normal times.
“Why is the Coroner Report being ignored?”
Despite Floyd ingesting enough fentanyl to kill a horse, the coroner said the cause of death was the confrontation with police, despite looking like a retard. Clearly the coroner knows who signs his paycheque. For the record, it isn’t a Republican.
Regardless of the outcome. There will be riots in the streets. Antifa loves this sort of opportunity.
It’s almost as though they want the riots…. but that couldn’t possibly be it, right? Right?!
Virtue Signalers: “He was a big hearted guy !”(sniffling empathy) “Therefore I vote Guilty !!!”
Reasonable man/woman: “His health was compromised. The fentanyl level was fatal, too…
It’s too complicated to even decide on a cause of death… Hung Jury, the least incitement to riot.)
It’s a lost cause any which way you look at it, all 360 degrees.
The riots will be on as soon as the verdict is in, the outcome of the trial is irrelevant, the outcome of the after trial is guaranteed.
Need to get new supply of stolen stuff, they have run out of it by now, the big screens are probably getting old, need new NIKE’s.
Paying for yer stuff is hard, riots make it free and easy.
We will see “mostly peaceful” protest if there’s an acquittal and “mostly peaceful” celebrations if there’s a conviction. Burn, baby, burn!
My bet is on Hung Jury.
I still can’t believe they let the trial go on in Minnesota, and allowed protests/riots just outside the court. That alone should have caused a Mistrial.
The usual response is to move the trial, but there is no where in MN that the mob won’t follow to interfere in the trial, and everyone knows it….
How about a $27M settlement just days before the trial as an admission of culpability?
a criminal with health and drug problems, engaged in criminal activity, resisted arrest, and caused his own death, so why is there even a trial. Because politics. If people haven’t figured out that is , and is only a political shit show to draw attention away from what they don’t want you to see. You haven’t been paying attention!
Verdict Shmerdict.
The lawlessness of the oathbreakers is astounding.WHEN THE BURNED OUT.IMPOVERISHED AND STARVING SURVIVORS LYNCH OR TEAR THEM LIMB FOR LIMB,The fools and bandits who OKed this assault on law,order and due process,will be still demanding their rights..
For now,Burn Loot Murder all the Democrat controlled enclaves.
Better drone camera coverage is needed,especially so we can savour the moments when the spawn turn on their enablers,attacking the Fake Newz Morons on the streets..
Keep reminding the killer kiddies that CNN is outing then every chance they get,to be filmed is to be exposed..Har har har.
Naturally the slightly saner regions of these Democrat Hellholes will be arming up and manning the barricades,especially the wealthy fortress communities just outside these ghettos.
Amazing how Democrat Help cures no social ill.Not even after 100 years of continuous power.
All street theatre until the marching morons attack outside their protection zones..
Then the Lying scum from the Media and their political comrades will accuse the defenders of “Unprovoked violence against these beautiful children”
After which hunting season will open.
No bag limit on looters,burners and mobs of thugs and no mercy or statute of limitations on their enablers.
Those who attack and then declare war,should never be surprised by what they reap.
For human nature remains a constant.
LawofSelfDefence (Legal Insurrection), Viva Frei/Robert Barnes, and Robert Gruler have done a good job informing the public. Robert Barnes has conducted some pretrial surveys of the anticipated verdict to compare with recent surveys. He has found that the people who believed Chauvin guilty before the trial, still believe he is guilty, and those who thought he was innocent, before the trial, still believe he is innocent, but the people who initially were only leaning toward guilty have shifted to the “not guilty” position, during the course of the trial.
I did a 180 on George Floyd’s death fairly early on, but I don’t blame anyone who watched the tape and felt that something very wrong occurred. Whether it was fair or not, the perception of Chauvin’s demeanor was troubling and it’s understandable that some people believe Chauvin et al should pay some penalty. Nevertheless, I would vote “Not Guilty” because I am dissatisfied with the COD analysis. I do not have high expectations of a Minneapolis jury. .
I have heard many people argue that Chauvin is guilty of negligence and should be held to account, because he failed to render aid promptly. I too kept wondering why Chauvin didn’t administer Narcan or CPR? So, how does “failure to render aid” factor into this discussion? It’s especially troubling since we all have the expectation that the police are here to do just that. But does that rise to the level of murder or even manslaughter? It may be failure to do one’s duty, or serious misconduct, or a fireable offense, but criminal? Were there mitigating circumstances? Some have proposed that the hostility of the crowd may have been a factor and short circuited a thorough assessment of GF’s medical status, or maybe it is as simple as the police were expecting an ambulance to roll up at any minute. Your thoughts?
Exasperated.
Are you forgetting the background on which all this has played out?
Democrat Enclave.
Very old democrat enclave.
No minions in that “Police force” will be police as we knew them.
These are the obedient,the “by the book” and brown nosers,that survive in Corrupt Democrat Controlled Cities.
Expecting anything,normal, from these servants is insane.
The righteous,the lawful and the sane have all been weeded out by now.
Enjoy the show,the beasts are eating their own.
Chauvin is innocent as charged and will still be thrown to the mob.
He followed orders and process just like a good minion should,as the defence has demonstrated.
By throwing him to the mob the the “management” hopes to slide on by,meanwhile even the dumbest thugs in their “force” are looking to the exits,cause they know they are next.
More popcorn,better drone coverage.
Burn Loot Murder..It is made for TV ratings.
I say goal was always to lose – got to keep the base fired up.
Fact number 1:
Derek Chauvin is piece of excrement thug who deserves to be publicly hanged, drawn and quartered.
Fact number 2:
There is no excuse for looting, rioting, BLMing and Antifing all who engage in those activities should be shot on sight.
Those two facts are independent of one another.
Morons on the left, pay attention now:
Fact number 1 does not excuse fact number 2.
Law and order morons, pay attention now:
Fact number 2 does not excuse fact number 1.
That is all.
I’d say you haven’t seen one second of the defense argument either.
Facepalm.
If Chauvin never met Floyd he still would be a blood thirsty sociopath JBT better dead than alive.
I love what is happening to him precisely because he is being fucked by the very system that he used to fuck others. Poetic justice this is. Hope someone makes a mistake and they put him in general population.
So being the unlucky bastard who attended Floyd’s fentanyl OD makes him that, eh?
See above and try to sound out the longer words.
Chauvin is hopefully getting the injustice (aka poetic justice) he so richly deserves.
I see. All I can say, is that if Chauvin is who you say he is, he must be your version of a mirror.
Chauvin is exactly who I say he is. A jackbooted thug who devoted his entire life and career to cynical abuse of the system. Now he is getting his just deserts. Good.

anybody who ever watched a single episode of “cops” or “live pd” has seen the prone restraint
position used more than once.
junkie george had been killing himself ever so
slowly for decades… chauvin just got the
short straw here.
*
Again, for the short bus riding jackboot lickers: it does not matter what caused Floyd’s death. The world is better off without him. Chauvin’s life is ruined and he will never be safe. He deserves it. This is great too. Now let’s hope Chauvin gets fucked even more for dessert and sent to prison where he experiences a passionate love affair and some prison justice.
Just watching the defense summation. I’d say he’s doing/done an outstanding job.
Never saw one second of that information from the MSM.
Your right!
None of what the defense presented was reporting by the media.
Today, I have gotten the whole view of videos and facts that the prosecution never presented.
Very surprised at how the cops were very professional in their jobs.
The cops across the country should be outraged at how the prosecutor ignored facts and created this narrative we see today.
Robert Barnes says the defence closing is well done, wishes the opening was as good. Claims juries minds are made up early. Also says prosecution closing mediocre at best.

black state special attorney closing for the
prosecution just spent a couple of minutes
talking about how “normal” george floyd’s
heart was.
apparently it magically “compensated” for
all his other health issues.
wow… this guy just made the legal argument
that poor georgie died because “derek chauvin’s
heart was too small.”
It was almost as if the script was lifted from “How the Grinch Stole Christmas”.
Maxine Waters causing a verdict to be overturned is the new definition of “Poetic Justice”
What a weird alternate world Democrats live in, where:
A protest at the capital building without weapons is a threat to Democracy, but over 100 attacks on federal buildings in Portland using arson, guns, swords,axes, etc… are just “protests”.
Antifa is not a terrorist organization.
Cuomo caused the deaths of thousands and harassed women by the dozens but doesn’t deserve to lose his job.
AOC goes to the border but sees nothing wrong in hundreds of illegals being housed in cells built for one tenth of the population. She sees nothing to worry about in the the girls being raped, children drowning trying to cross the river.
Chicago mayor loses her job due to using her power to get charges dropped after sexual favors are traded, not because of the 875 people murdered last year in her city.
All political opponents are Racists.
All white people are Racists, they just haven’t admitted it to themselves yet.
Asians are being attacked by Blacks in 80%of the cases but it is white supremacists who are actually at fault.
BLM organizers, the ones not in prison for assault and murder, are buying multiple homes with the donated money and not actually helping anyone but themselves.
Race hustler Al Sharpton flew to the Chauvin trial in his private jet even though he has multiple legal judgements against him totaling in the millions, he is not prosecuted for ignoring the judgements.
