Cops see killing black people as a badge of honor. It gets them in the gang. You're not really a cop until you've murdered a black kid.

There you go Roomba.
At least try to insert a bit of humor in your satire.

Looks as if Chauvin is a serial suffocator.

Turns out he's done this before, back in 2017.
Late last year, as a team of Minnesota state prosecutors was preparing for the trial that would ultimately convict former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin of murdering George Floyd, they received a series of videos depicting Chauvin's handling of another case three years earlier that by their own description shocked them.

DOJ weighs charging Chauvin for 2017 incident involving Black teen
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/crime/doj-weighs-charging-chauvin-for-2
017-incident-involving-black-teen-source/ar-BB1fYGCE?ocid=msedgdhp
The videos, from Sept. 4, 2017, allegedly showed Chauvin striking a Black teenager in the head so hard that the boy needed stitches, then allegedly holding the boy down with his knee for nearly 17 minutes, and allegedly ignoring complaints from the boy that he couldn't breathe.
"Those videos show a far more violent and forceful treatment of this child than Chauvin describes in his report" of the incident, one of the state prosecutors, Matthew Frank, wrote in a court filing at the time.
Now, the U.S. Justice Department may do something that state prosecutors never did: charge Chauvin for the 2017 incident.
Two months ago, federal prosecutors in Minneapolis brought witnesses before a federal grand jury to provide testimony related to the incident, the Minneapolis Star-Tribune reported at the time. And this week, a source informed of the probe told ABC News that the investigation is still underway, with the Justice Department still weighing whether to bring federal charges against Chauvin for both the 2017 incident and George Floyd's death.

Show me where I said I love him.
I'm no fan of police and have a long post history here to prove that.
It's you America-hating wannabe terrorists that just keep pushing reasonable folks further and further to the right.
He will be acquitted and it will be thrown out. Don't worry about that.

So I want to get back to this for a bit. I haven't really been following this, but I recently read that the prosecution charged Chauvin with two counts of murder AND manslaughter, all for the same event. And the jury found him guilty of all three!
On the face of it, that seems ludicrous. The difference between murder and manslaughter is intention. You can't kill someone both intentionally AND unintentionally.
Just from a layperson's POV, I don't think Chauvin intended to kill anyone. He was using an approved hold. But the hold is only meant to be used while handcuffing, not on a cuffed suspect. Especially not one in distress. There are many points at which Chauvin SHOULD have taken his knee off, but he didn't. My guess is he'd done that many times b4 and so he was careless and maybe callous and grossly mishandled the situation, but death was not the intended outcome.
So I wonder what the jury was thinking, and why they convicted someone of two mutually exclusive crimes.
Or maybe they're as stupid as THUGR, TWITCHY, REAVERBOT, and SECONDRATE? Or maybe they were intimidated by the prospect of mob violence?
