The rioting, death, destruction and looting should not have happened however and no one should advocate such, even in the face of such an obvious miscarriage of justice. OJ Simpson should have been put in prison for life for his vicious murders, but because the King verdict was such an atrocity of justice, he got away with it as payback for King. That so many don't see anything wrong with what Chauvin did, shows how little we've improved as a nation when it comes to how we view blacks in our society. If there is any question to that fact, a person only needs to read the constant threads and posts on this site to see the same attitude.

Having scoured all of the threads and posts since this incident, there's one thing I haven't seen a single person say. That being how they think their life would have been easier in general and they would have had a better chance, or an easier time, of being successful, if only they had been born with black skin.

Almost all of the people on here think the cop is guilty based on what we saw.

One of these days blm will find someone with a clean record to make a hero out of.
