Current Affairs George Floyd and Minneapolis Unrest

[Tubey]

Something tells me he won't get the most serious charge of second degree murder.

I read that even if he does, and it carries a term of up to 40 years, he'll likely only serve a maximum of 10 anyway. Crazy.

Desperate for justice to be served here.

That's the only one where you could rationally argue that maybe he's not guilty of it.

It's because of the bars you have to hurdle over to get certain verdicts, and if there's any reasonable doubt that he simply 'erred', murder without mens rea, then that charge might not stick.

But for me, he's guilty of everything. As soon as he decided to keep his knee there after he was restrained, that's a decision of intent and therefore murder.

Women are crap at driving and cause more accidents than the stats account for through their actions.

No chance.. he was getting guilty before the trail even started.

Sadly, there is a chance

And being guilty and being FOUND guilty are not the same

God, if he's found not guilty America will burn tonight.

In America? Far from a given

If he’s found not guilty it should.

Things have changed within the last 18 months. They don’t want another riot. The president even stated he should be getting a guilty verdict a few hours ago. When has that ever happened before.

He’ll be found guilty. But if it’s anything less than guilty on all counts it’s going to get messy.

Nothing has changed in America for decades

Cops are fired and prosecuted pretty much every day. Whole police departments have been shut down.

No they're not. And unarmed men (and even recently kids) are still getting regularly killed by poorly trained oafs.
