I have to say this was a very interesting thread, from start to finish.
Especially starting around page 4 when the verdict in the Derek Chauvin case came in. There was such a sense of deflation, sadness and disappointment among the racist pricks and cunts (in today's world of gender fluid identities being one does not preclude the other) who post around here. Then briefly forlorn hope that the fact that a juror attended a march for racial justice wearing a BLM shirt would get the verdict tossed.
Chauvin himself pleaded guilty in the parallel federal civil rights case. Maybe he got tired of paying the lawyers. Or maybe he reflected and became a better man. Hope springs eternal.
Sitting and reading all 14 pages of a thread from a year ago …
Not odd at all.
The crumble continues
He still hasn't commented on the hunter Biden laptop story.
He needed a distraction

Not a hard case. The jury just had to believe its eyes. Chauvin's body language and arrogance are there for all to see. It is stunning to think he had so much of a sense of impunity that he didn't mind all the videographers. He was going to show everyone he was the bossman. The same pride and arrogance that led him to kill will also lead to his being convicted.
I would vote guilty because he is guilty.
Imagine living in that ****hole city
No matter the verdict they’ll burn it down.
Guilty on all charges.
Intimidation works
The city will still burn.
This is not about justice
lol. Which doesn't prove racism.
of course not...if the racists get to determine the standards of proof it is gonna be hard to "prove"
Do arrests for breaking the law count as harassment? Have you seen numbers that show blacks are harassed during lawful behavior at a greater rate than whites?
police pull black people over for no reason disproportionately...unless driving while black is a legitimate reason
also more likely to cuff them and throw them against a wall, etc, etc
• Compliance by civilians doesn’t eliminate racial differences in police use of force. Black civilians who were recorded as compliant by police were 21% more likely to suffer police aggression than compliant whites. We also found that the benefits of compliance differed significantly by race. This was perhaps our most upsetting result, for two reasons: The inequity in spite of compliance clashed with the notion that the difference in police treatment of blacks and whites was a rational response to danger. And it complicates what we tell our kids: Compliance does make you less likely to endure a beat-down—but the benefit is larger if you are white.

• There are large racial differences in police use of nonlethal force. My research team analyzed nearly five million police encounters from New York City. We found that when police reported the incidents, they were 53% more likely to use physical force on a black civilian than a white one. In a separate, nationally representative dataset asking civilians about their experiences with police, we found the use of physical force on blacks to be 350% as likely. This is true of every level of nonlethal force, from officers putting their hands on civilians to striking them with batons. We controlled for every variable available in myriad ways. That reduced the racial disparities by 66%, but blacks were still significantly more likely to endure police force.
Who determines whether the civilian was compliant?
"recorded as compliant by police"
I suspect that it points to a flaw in the collection of data. Based on the data saying that a whole bunch of cops said they beat compliant suspects, I bet that didn't happen.
