well they just reached a verdict so... I watched bits and pieces of this trial, it felt exactly like Zimmerman. A verdict that quick pretty, coupled with the weak-*** case, screams not guilty to me. But jurors are quite literally the dumbest people on earth...

Juror 2:
A white man in his 20s. He's from Minneapolis and works as a chemist. Because of his profession, he said, "I consider myself a pretty logical person…I rely on facts and logic and what's in front of me. Opinion and facts are important distinctions for me." He said he has a generally favorable view of the Black Lives Matter movement but added that "I think all lives matter equally" and that the "Blue Lives Matter" message among police advocates is a counter viewpoint that isn't necessary. When selected for the jury, he said he had not viewed the bystander video of George Floyd's death. He has visited 38thand Chicago where Floyd was killed, as he and his fiancée were considering moving to the area.

Believes in "facts and logic" but has a favorable view of BLM? How can you be so dumb.

Y'all need to recognize that we're living in an era of changing social and moral opinions.
As time goes on, we'll be seeing more and more convictions of law enforcement officers.

Every Leo should quit. I welcome what all these leftist cities will look like in 3 weeks if they do.

Police don't prevent crime. They react to it, these days with bullets flying and little to no consequences.
