Also, I normally only have one beer a day, with my evening cigar. I'm on my third tonight. One for each guilty verdict.

How battered up is your MAGA hat since November? It feels like racists haven't had any instant gratifying win in so long.




Right you are. I'm 100% sure Biden doesn't have a racist bone in his body. :D

Cheerleading for Biden... how does that make you feel? LOL

Meanwhile 10 "brothers" died by accident.

By mere numbers your bullshit narrative falls apart by 4:1


You're arguing that being a cop is so dangerous that they'll just give up. I don't think ANYONE wants to have people who give up that easily on the police force. Having those personalities culled is a great thing for society.

That is separate from the issue of whether or not police killings are a problem in this country. I don't necessarily disagree with your logic there but democracy can be irrational. Personally, I have extremely high standards for people in authority. We should want cops, teachers, politicians, etc. to be impeccable. We have far too many dirtbags in government positions.

People can change in 25 years. Also, he hasn't done anything egregious thus far to make me despise him. I just cheer for your demise to be frank because you are the embodiment of hypocrisy. Imagine having the nerve to be racist while collecting gov assist checks and accruing fat in the comfort of your mom's basement at the age of 60. How do you manage to wake yourself up every morning with that in mind and still spout racist drivel ?

Oh that's easy. I just tell myself that there's a truly racist idjet posting on JSP, that needs to be stopped. :)


Oh yeah... it's like shooting fish in a barrel. :D

Exactly. Cops are entrusted to carry out state sanctioned violence and to potentially make use of deadly force - we should definitely hold them to a higher standard than some random street thugs.



Chauvin's utter disregard for the life and well-being of a fellow human was indeed more befitting of a lawless street thug than a police officer. Would he have been found guilty of 2nd degree murder if the case had been less high profile and the pressure on the jury not as huge? Probably not. So yes, by the standards of the jurisprudence in the country, this verdict falls on the tougher side of things - but it would be wrong to imply or infer that Chauvin is a sacrificial lamb or a man who was done wrong - he 100% deserves to be found guilty of 2nd degree murder and 100% deserves whatever sentence is coming his way.

The problem is that we get this performance because we're cheap skates and refuse to pay for good performance. In addition, we're incredibly violent and it makes for a terrible work environment. Then we have very dumb people recommending that we divert funding away from the police, which will only exacerbate the situation. We get what we deserve. If we want to know who's to blame, we can look in the mirror.
