    I dunno.. anyone reasonably looking at much of the actual evidence it would be hard to convict really..

    But everyone is being gaslit by the media so maybe..

    Tell me, were the witnesses who were a few meters away gaslit by the media too? They knew exactly what was happening.

    They were probably the reason his medical condition wasn't dealt with immediately..

    Riots and looting tonight then.

    Medical condition? You mean his murder.
    When the defence started spouting that crap it was obvious they had very little to work with

    It's the media's fault, no actually maybe it's the bystanders fault, no wait maybe it was the drugs, no wait again maybe it was his heart condition...

    But let us never ever consider that it may actually be chauvins fault.

    Full sympathy with business owners, imagine what it must be like having to put up with this ****!

    Along with people in government egging it on? ****ing hell! pure nightmare

    regarding civil unrest, i reckon it's absolute carnage if he's aquitted of all charges or only guilty of the lesser manslaughter charge.

    if the highest he gets is third degree murder probably some amount of unrest.

    the only outcome that wouldn't result in some trouble is guilty of all charges.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,291 ✭✭✭Thrashssacre


    So if they convict on 2/3 of the charges will we still see serious rioting?

    Yes. There is a cohort who will riot regardless

    I know. She should have winked to the camera and said "peaceful" first, then everyone on Fox News' brains would shut down and not worry about it.

    Disgraceful that a sitting US president would comment on a trial before verdict.

    Happens from time to time. Trump also has made numerous comments on this same case.

    They have form for destroying their own communities in fairness. Mugs

    What does my not having cable hooked up have to do with what I said?

    Yes. He was sitting in office when he said all of those things. Inconvenient?

    No, no, let's give this proper context:


    “The George Floyd case, nothing has to be said. I watched that,” Trump told Fox News’s Sean Hannity during a phone interview Wednesday night. “I couldn’t really watch it for that long a period of time, it was over eight minutes. Who could watch that?

    “But it doesn’t get any more obvious or it doesn’t get any worse than that,” the president added.

    You'd swear Biden went on Prime Time and made comments that clearly seem to insinuate how ****ed the officer was.

    Is this live online somewhere?

    Edit, yes. Here's CBS, not sure how good they are

    I thought this was quite remarkable. No matter how obvious something may be, the President of the United States should not be giving an opinion on a verdict of a murder trial before it’s given.

    Not according to Trump! The election was rigged! He is the rightful president! So says Q!

    No..he was having a heart attack from eating too many drugs before Chauvin ever went near him..

    Chauvin was dealing with a massive crazy dude off his head thrashing around the place..

    They’re still going to riot for at least 3 nights even if he’s guilty of all charges.
    Guilty will confirm to them that there is in fact systemic racism within the US justice system so they need to riot to express their feelings.
    In future the slightest hint of black people NOT being treated as totally blameless in all instances will result in widespread looting and rioting.
    Because it always works.

    Do you have anything better to do than give out about Trump all the time?

    He's been gone for months, yet you can't stop moaning about him 24/7. True, Trump derangement syndrome in play, folks

    Couldn't have been dealing with it too hard considering he didn't have to make much if any use of his hands.

    "Heart attack from eating too many drugs" my new favorite mental gymnastic dance move.

    Hardly getting any traction in the media either. Disgraceful really

    Trump is gone, he's not the sitting president. You need to think before you post
