    Why Biden? Because Fuck You that's why. Barack Obama has a Grammy, an Emmy, a Nobel Prize, 2 terms as President and a Twitter account.

    Donald Trump has 2 impeachments.

    I never believed that capital punishment is a deterrent, notwithstanding the claims of the govt..

    However, if a murderer knew that he might suffer the exact punishment that he/she doled out, it might just dissuade them from murdering.

    Probably not, but you never know.

    There is nothing about our society that is 'moral', unfortunately. Our society has more criminals than those with heinous punishments for crime. Go figure.

    IMHO the thing that most likely convicted him was the video with the one cop telling him they should let him up and him insisting he was "staying right where he is" then later when that same cop said that he could find no pulse and his answer "uh huh"... 3 more minutes of kneeling... and the paramedics still had to nudge him so they could access him to provide what help they could, unfortunately he was already dead.
    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.
    - -- Aristotle

    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.
    - -- The Buddha

    It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

    If they weren't, then they would have been Prosecution witnesses.
    They probably weren't allowed to be witnesses because they have their own trials coming up.

    They were de facto witnesses though. The prosecution used the audio from their comments to illustrate just how depraved Chauvin is.

    One asked twice about rolling him on his side. That alone would have saved his life. One of them checked for a pulse, and told Chauvin that there is none.


    Chauvin wasn't interested. They will both argue that they were following the senior officer's lead.

    I keep hearing that, but not one person can offer any grounds for appeal.

    Correct. Because he followed with 'the jurors were given instruction not to watch the news. I believe they obeyed that instruction'

    To clarify...you don't think Chauvin caused Floyd's death?

    That's the pertinent issue here. There were just as many talking heads on t.v. making that bogus claim as those like Maxine Waters. It could be argued that the jury was inundated with misinformation.

    Most of it coming from Nelson's mouth. The prosecution was masterful at getting the defense witnesses to admit the truth about cause of death.

    Nope. Not a chance.

    Chauvin trial expert blames George Floyd's death on heart rhythm problem

    Fentanyl, methamphetamine and possible carbon monoxide were contributing factors, he said

    The best evidence yet:

    There is simply no way that Maxine Waters gave grounds for a mistrial.

    None.

    Not true. No appeals court will hear this case.

    The judge did not say that there should be an appeal. He simply stated that a mistrial was NOT going to happen, and that Nelson can attempt to address the Waters issue on appeal.

    He said that about a number of issues. Nelson lied to the jury when he told them that the prosecution must show beyond a shadow of a doubt that Floyd didn't die from underlying causes.


    That's a lie. When the prosecution called it a 'story', Nelson starting whining about a mistrial.

    Not sure about what sentence will be handed down. If your claims about the judge are true, then he can obstruct true justice with his sentences.

    Other than that, Chauvin will never see the light of day.
