It does look like they might actually be, reluctantly as it is, throwing him under the bus. If they do manage, the reaction from the right is going to be fun. It's quite clear from Jan 6 that the right's cop-worship is entirely conditional on their policies of murdering minorities and upholding white supremacy- if they stop doing that, the right has to almost begin to worry about consequences for their actions.

They can always give Chauvin a slap on the wrist, and all the witnesses and jurists will mysteriously end up committing suicide, as is standard practice.

America has been exporting its killer cop culture for decades. And the Mounties were literally founded to murder natives.

SchnorkIes posted:It's theater, jury will acquit regardless bc convicting is throwing your life away There's a good question because honestly, even if they're throwing Chauvin to the wolves, horrible things are probably going to happen to the prosecution and/or jury anyway just to make clear this was a one time thing.

I do wonder if Jan 6 actually got through to them and Democrats realised the white supremacist cops literally want to kill them.

Herstory Begins Now posted:Garland does seem rather motivated here. That the Praetorian Guard stepped aside and let the mob in should be ringing every kind of alarm bell, I just really didn't think the Democratic political establishment still had the ability to process and respond to such stimuli. While an inquisition would be the proper response to this, not incrementalism, making an example does work in this case where the nazi cops are lazy, spiteful, childish and stupid. Though would not be surprised to see cops retaliate against elected officials physically before the year- hell, the season- is out.

Really seems like one of those bits where people realise they'd been come to expect to have to defer to a majority that does not in fact exist.
