Why does Chauvin have millions of dollars in homes? He is a police officer who takes side jobs doing bar security. This does not smell right.
As for spray paint on the door of Chauvin's house... That is wrong, but not killing thousands of people wrong. Some proportionality is needed.
But we really need a forensic accountant to try to figure out why Chauvin has so much money.

Where has it been stated he owns millions of dollars in homes?

Do you have evidence of these riches? I've seen no story listing his millions in homes...
Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.

Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.

Because I love real estate I was looking up homes on the block he lives in outside Minneapolis (his block was referenced in articles about protesters showing up at his home). These homes were under $300K. Maybe that looks like multi-millions to someone who took common core math, I'm not sure. I don't know how much cops make but have to imagine one who has been on the job awhile can probably afford a home near that price.

Chauvin was a Minneapolis police officer, right? One of his houses in Horizon West, Florida got spray paint on the door, right? Homes in that neighborhood go for over a million dollars, so why does a supposedly poor Minneapolis police officer own a million dollar house which is 24 hours drive from his house?
It is supposedly used as a rental property. It is right next to Universal Studios Amusement Park. Chauvin could be claiming he is getting rental money in cash in another state, which could launder his money from "other businesses".
The Florida home and the possibility of laundering money needs to be examined.
Russian trolls and their supporters go on Ignore, automatically: no second chance.
From what I read he has a home in Minnesota, the one I referenced, and a rental home in Florida. The homes on his street in Minnesota that I looked up go for under $300K. Not sure about the Florida home but for him to have multi-millions of dollars in homes that Florida home would have to be pretty valuable.

Socialism is just the modern word for monarchy.
D.C. has become a Guild System with an hierarchy and line of accession much like the Royal Court or priestly classes.
Private citizens are perfectly able of doing a better job without "apprenticing".
Regarding his Florida home it said he owns a town home in or near Windmere. I have no idea the size of his home but a simple google search shows you can purchase town homes in Windmere for $300K. (It also said he bought in 2011 when the market was probably at or near the bottom).
So that's nowhere near $1m in homes let alone multi-millions in homes. I mean, the guy committed murder so it's possible he's committed other crimes as well. But I have no idea where your math is coming from.
