he might off himself. sure he will never see general and etc but i suspect it might break his brain and ego realizing that his department threw him under the bus. its clear from the reaction that he thought he was gonna loving walk. it also wouldnt shocked me if he was "encouraged" to do it so this will just "go away".


anyway.

So does that mean he'll be in solitary for most of the prison term? I'd probably rather just get shanked in the lunch line.

It's really interesting to watch them all show their rear end like this, when it would be the easiest thing in the world to just walk away from it and distance themselves from Chauvin.

Instead they have to double down and talk about one white cop receiving justice is an attack on civilization, and they specifically wanted Trump in because he gave the go ahead for the police to commit murder of people they don't like.

It's fascinating and gross watching these wierdo fucks radicalize in real time. It can't just be a grift anymore right?

yeah. the "smarter" play would be using chauvin as the "see we deal with the bad ones" poo poo. like even my dad, who leans sorta proish cop at times thought this dude was loving murderer and the other cops should be charged for the murder as well. these assholes keep picking the worst possible optics and positions on everything because they only care about their minority base.

The whole bullhorn is white supremacy. A white man, being punished at all for murdering a black man, no matter the circumstances, is an inexcusable miscarriage of justice caused by "cancel culture" or whatever, when they should really have applauded Chauvin as a defender of "western civilization" (wink wink not even subtly winking just straight up shouting)

Pat motherfucking Robertson said "they should put Chauvin under the jail!" so I honestly don't know why they haven't all figured out that tack.

Actually, I do know: it's because they want Black people to die, whereas Robertson just wants a weird Christian theocracy for its own sake. It's similar to when a bunch of right-wing loons got angry at Ammon Bundy for saying "actually, gently caress 12, Black lives matter." If you don't implicitly believe everyone is secretly a white supremacist, because you yourself are a white supremacist, then a lunatic anti-government freeman on the land saying "gently caress the police" doesn't come as a shock.

I don't really see how this comes as a surprise. They look at Trump and Tucker and see themselves: loud opinionated white men who never ever change their minds (because that's weakness) and respond to the slightest challenge by yelling and threatening violence (which is okay to do because they're the ones who are right). That is masculinity to them.

trump never listens to the party line or reads the talking points memo. he just says whatever the gently caress pops in his head, ruins the establishment's spin doctors careful balancing act and then sets the new talking points for the rest of the party. this is both the best and worst thing about him.

The gangs: perhaps. The guards, I really don't think so, and this is why: he hosed up. He did this poo poo on camera, there's no plausible deniability, and it's called both the profession of law enforcement into question, making it harder for the "good apples" to do their job, and made it that much harder for white supremacists to operate within law enforcement.

It's organized crime, make no mistake. And the number one rule of organized crime is: as soon as you gently caress up and it affects business, you'll pay. Will the guard that looks the other way at the right moment have a flitter of "there but for the grace of God go I?" It's possible. But at this moment Chauvin is worthless to them, he is nothing but a liability, and I do very much doubt their sense of professional loyalty will overcome their pragmatism.

Chauvin lost in court, which makes him a loser, which makes him unworthy of respect. I don't expect Trump to go out of his way to tweet (lol) about this, though I wouldn't be surprised if a staffer put out some kind of typically incendiary comment.

yeah guards would be fine with him if he had "cover", but chauvin didn't. he mudered a man over 9 and half minuetes and the whole world loving watched. the guards will either hate him for "soiling the police officers honor/etc" or because he loving did all this poo poo in the open. again i would not be shocked if he doesn't end up dead because he was "convinced" that this was the "best" way forward or some poo poo.

fox news makes most of its money from the fact that they get way more carriage fees from cable subscribers than any other network. they can negotiate that because they're experts at getting their audience of boomers and gen xers to call their cable companies and complain AKA what they love doing most anyway. tucker makes them happy and calling and he's pulling his weight even as he has 0 advertisers.

That too, yes. Also the jury is composed entirely of people who knew what rules you were told to follow and are pissed off that you didn't.

It does present a problem in terms of holding people higher up the chain of command responsible, mind you.
