They just said Chauvin is 140 pounds. I didn’t realize he’s such a little dude.

It's hilarious that we as a society think everyone can be a dr, a lawyer, an engineer. Some people are just fucking stupid. Why can't we just accept that?
I agree with part of this, but not in Chauvin's case.
This guy was a rotten cop going back many years. He had a long history of bad behavior in the department, and he should have lost his badge years ago.
This wasn't the case of a good cop making a mistake when dealing with a large guy on drugs who was acting erratically. Chauvin was a ticking time bomb and likely to do something really bad at some point. Had Floyd been white, this would have likely been mostly ignored, and confined to local media in Minneapolis.
This wasn't a racist killing. I see no evidence of that. If Chauvin was this awful racist who hated black people, he would have refused Floyd's request to roll down the squad car window, and enjoyed watching him suffer with his claustrophobia. Instead, Chauvin agreed to roll it down, which wasn't even a requirement.
The media can't be honest about this. It was a bad cop who acted in a reckless fashion once he got tired of the drug-addled suspect repeatedly resisting being brought to the station, and the victim was a guy with a ton of problems and a drug addiction. Race didn't play into it. The same thing would have happened if Floyd was a large white guy.
It should have been a teaching moment to make it easier to fire bad cops. Instead, it became a reason to burn down cities, and for the media to push the narrative that most cops abuse black people.
Chauvin should be convicted of manslaughter and police brutality, and get a fairly long sentence.
Police unions should be weakened, and it should be far easier to fire bad cops.
The media should be honest, and push the truth that this wasn't about racism, and that black people are not victimized my police, for the most part. The media won't do this, because they're a propaganda arm for the DNC now.
Sad!
The rules of WSOP should be weakened, and it should be far easier to remove fraudulent poker players.
Again, police unions protect their members that are attacked by the outside bad factors like admin, corrupt politicians and gov officials. If a LEO does something legit bad, the union wont back them. Having a good union for protection is like having a personal good lawyer (EB) in case someone (MP) files a bogus lawsuit against you- you want to be able to fight back fairly.

Today the prosecution convinced me that Floyd didn’t die of a drug overdose, Chauvin is fucked.
It’s not that I say so, it’s that the GOAT expert on breathing in the entire world says so. Guy might be the GOAT of all GOATs in any field. He broke everything down in a way that a small child could understand it and possibly even you. Combination of knee on back, being cuffed and pressed against the street, total weight on him and of course the knee on the neck. The knee on the neck didn’t restrict the carotid artery but rather restricted the hypopharynx specifically when Floyd’s head was turned to the side. He also broke down as to why it wasn’t a drug overdose and testified that a perfectly healthy person with no preexisting conditions still would have died in that position for 9 minutes.
I'm as big of a cop supporter as you'll find, my brother is a cop. The overwhelming majority of cops don't support Chauvin here which includes my brother and every cop he knows/works with. Bad cops put good cops in even more danger than what should be typical for their already dangerous job.
