All the people who defend Chauvin, & demonize George Floyd (a dead man) are showing you that they are racist & have no empathy. There for a sociopathic psychopath. I.M.O.
Justice will only be served when the murderers get put in prison and murder settlements come out of police pensions. What a way to make them start holding each other accountable.
With such power, all police should have an annual citizens review in order to keep their job year to year. Make them work for us like they're supposed to.
That's not a bad idea but different towns and cities have had citizen review boards and all to often the people who are supposed to watch the cops end up being in cahoots with the cops and don't actually end up holding them accountable.
To prove weather Chauvin's action were responsible for George Floyds death, we should have a reenactment of the event with Chauvin handcuffed and on the ground and a black man sitting on his neck for the documented amount of time.🤔
@@GGT950 Exactly! But i think prosecution lowered the charges so that justice might be more easily secured. We still don't know. It's clear to so many this is indeed 1st degree murder. So sad.
Abolish police unions and end qualified immunity. The military doesn't have a union, drug dealers don't have a union. An armed group with a monopoly on use of force cannot have a union in a democratic country, otherwise that union eclipses the power of the existing democratic and judiciary systems.
That's why people say abolish the police, because that is the only way to fire a police officer without going through the police unions appeals process that protects and moves around murderous officers. By abolishing and rebuilding from the ground up, we can get out of the obligations to go through police union processes.

I truly believe that if Chauvin had not put his knee and the weight of his body on George Floyd's neck for 9:29 minutes, Floyd would still be alive! Floyd's hands were cuffed behind his back, so where was the threat? Peace.
Ok lets assume for a minute that what the defense say is true (which I don't accept at all). So what? How does that justify kneeling on a man neck for over minutes while two or three other Cops helped hold him down?
I mean the blame falls on Chauvin even if it was ultimately ' a drug overdose induced death' because neither him nor any other one of those officers did anything to even try helping prevent death- in fact they directly contributed to the death by obstructing air flow through the throat and by restricting the lungs and rest of his body so George could find any kind of relief. It would be viewed as an intentional disregard of human life and of a medical emegency that knowingly would directly lead to death. So homicide by chosing to do nothing when you have the sole means and power to do so
I have a family member that trained with him. Said this man was a horribly toxic person and he couldn't believe he went on to become a cop. Sadly I can.
The man was on drugs so that should justify him being executed by someone who did not have the authority to judge, convict and penalize him? How in the hell does that work? He did not represent danger to people anymore. He was already under control. This police man is a murdered. He must be charged for murder with intent.
I would like to see the defense attorney have some one do to them what George went through and see how long before they die ,bet they don't last as long as George did...
He will be eligible for his nice pension once he gets out. MN doesn’t have systems in place to strip criminal civil servants when convicted of a crime.

I want a DIVORCE, NO POLICE PENSION, and PROTECTION forME ad MY FAMILY. just looking at his face as he stared into the camera,with his knee on the MAN'S NECK, was enough to see that his MORAL CONSCIENCE simply wasn't there. only GOD KNOWS WHAT HE WOULD DO GIVEN THE opportunity.✍️
In no other profession where you need to restrain someone, is this justifiable. I can understand injuries that may be sustained for both the the person and the professional. But after someone is successfully restrained. You check if the person is okay, and then yourself. There is absolutely no reason anyone can justify this. “The defense will argue”, argue what?
If the system can't provide a substantial conviction in this case (from what we know at this time) then the social contract between the citizen and the state will be irreparable. If chauvin is not convicted due to a technicality or some other trite nuance then the only chance we have to avoided indiscriminate violent chaos is for a lot of people in power to stand-up, speak-out, and act in solidarity with a general-strike. Laws need to be followed. Laws need to be scrutinized. Laws need to protested. Laws need to refined. Laws needs to be followed.
I love how most of the people who are just so sad about this incident don't even know and protest for other incidents that were way way more sad and terrible than this. And no I'm not trying to downplay thus incident
The trial is on another level, the working class vs. the professional class. The disrespect to the professional witnesses by the prosecution is typical.they are treated as if they were idiots. They have all availed themselves with dignity and professionalism . This is the real America.
we all know how this ends. we're like a bunch of docile sheep and cows being lead to slaughter. Zimmerman and countless others need more heros like Chris Dorner to take care of with the system won't.
A guilty verdict for the state, for the people, and for the Floyd family, is the only acceptable outcome Unfortunately every juror has to vote guilty, so we shall see
Amy this is wrong. I do Security work. Whoever is telling the Polices and Sherif's that we are the enemy needs to be held liable for their destructive and dysfunctional teaching. Especially when many Bosses allow this kind of action to take place. The Government continues to place my Son and I in situations that would not have NEVER been a reality if my younger Son and I had the Oakland Police complete the criminal investigation in statue. These People out here are going to be reckless, addicts, habitual liars, and whatever else. That is not any association to my younger Son and I. Peopld are going to try to get us to be at odds with one another and try to make my Sons believe that I do not have their best interest. The least the Government can do is complete criminal investigators properly and not aid misfits of society to give misfits of society a chance to break up decent Families The Government cannot blane Anyone but themselves for allowing the settled order to be violated and separating my Family. George Floyd is one of many who is dead for absolutely no reason. We have to be better in America. Misfits of society do not rule!
The defence should be ashamed u have a man in hand cuff this officer knelling on his neck and blàming this man for his own death theses racist police officers they are murderers.
The prosecution will need to prove the bruises on the neck of Ffloyd came only from Chauvin, since their expert claims those bruises contributed to his death. Given how much happened before Chauvin even arrived (not first on scene), doubt can be cast on that claim if any of the lead up shows the bruises could have come from when the other cops were trying to get him into the car, or when dragging him out. Remember the standard should be "beyond a shadow of a doubt". Not "we must have a scapegoat."
There is no defence for this unwarranted, unprovoked murder. This trial is a waste of taxpayers money. If this wasn't video taped those officers would have gotten off scot free
The prosecution case is strong but it might be worth adding expert testimony that even if the $20 bill were counterfeit - and I've not heard that conclusively established yet - many such bills are unwittingly passed by law abiding citizens, and cops know this. We know from the co-owner of the store that George Floyd would visit Cup Foods several times a week and would pay his cellphone bill there. It seems unlikely he would have taken such a chance to use a bogus note at that store with such a certainty that the police could easily track him down.
Regardless of the video and what we have heard so far Chauvin can't get a fair trial and remember you can't convict if there is any doubt what so ever and that could be the case before the trial is over. I don't know if he was charged with manslaughter if they can't get a conviction for 2nd degree murder particularly with intent. When the defense presents its case it could turn out with a reasonable doubt for murder but that in my view would put jurors possibly in harms way if they don't find him guilty as charged I don't think there is any doubt about that bc we have seen the results of past cases. What idiot would intentionally murder a person in front of a crowd? As of right now Chauvin looks cooked but there's a long way to go so stay turned. If they start trying people and giving it to the public to decide we're all at risk.
the truth cannot be hidden forever, sooner or later, God 🙏 🌞 illuminates us with the truth. I am the Aztec eagle 🦅🌎🦅 blessed by God 🙏🌞 They already screwed us so much for so long ❣️
The lawyers' job is to present a case, for prosecution and defence - even if the defence counsel believes the defendant is guilty. The jury decides on guilt and innocence. The judge sums up the case and decides on sentence, if relevant
sometimes the law is wrong. Thankfully, the jury is allowed to come to whatever conclusion they want, even if it's not legally consistent. As Chief Justice Holmes said, "The strength of [our law] is that the outcome of a case is decided first, the reasons afterward" (which, in another context, is pretty chilling)
Massive yawn... this dull, bullshit american courthouse drama. We can say with enough hindsight, and experience, that several other George Floyds and Derrick Chauvins are roaming around in America right now...
The officer did what his trainers taught him to do. Ta-da. He placed George in the car and George screamed he couldn't breathe in the air conditioned backseat, and begged to be put on the ground, if an officer has someone on the ground they are taught to use head control. The training is to blame.
The saddest sickest part of this trial is that it takes such an extreme, outrageous cruel torturous murder by a Pig to even come to a trial. Had Chauvin
Twice in my life I had apparently been passed a counterfeit $20 bill and used it to pay for groceries without my knowledge, until I was informed by the cashier. This can happen to ANYONE without knowing!

I don't call the police at all but who calls the police on someone like GF?. someone who fears a criminal dopefiend on the loose.

How could any lawyer believe DC is innocent
The lawyers' job is to present a case, for prosecution and defence - even if the defence counsel believes the defendant is guilty. The jury decides on guilt and innocence. The judge sums up the case and decides on sentence, if relevant
sometimes the law is wrong. Thankfully, the jury is allowed to come to whatever conclusion they want, even if it's not legally consistent. As Chief Justice Holmes said, "The strength of [our law] is that the outcome of a case is decided first, the reasons afterward" (which, in another context, is pretty chilling)
@@ChannelMath trouble with a jury system is that it takes only one bigoted juror to block the rightful decision, whatever that might be
Some ppl personality just low. Low-life that kind of low.
@@pashakdescilly7517 You're trying to explain how the process works to a mob.
Massive yawn... this dull, bullshit american courthouse drama. We can say with enough hindsight, and experience, that several other George Floyds and Derrick Chauvins are roaming around in America right now...
I agree the cop killed him

The officer did what his trainers taught him to do. Ta-da. He placed George in the car and George screamed he couldn't breathe in the air conditioned backseat, and begged to be put on the ground, if an officer has someone on the ground they are taught to use head control. The training is to blame.
When someone does such a wicked act, and the footage clearly shows, he is guilty, no stage show should be allowed to take place,none atall..
The saddest sickest part of this trial is that it takes such an extreme, outrageous cruel torturous murder by a Pig to even come to a trial. Had Chauvin
