At the end of the day, former officer Derek Chauvin knelt on a man’s neck with 2, TWO, other officers holding him down, after he was cuffed, while he was pleading for air. NEVER did we do anything like that in Iraq when we *could* get away with murder, and frankly, some did.

I think hearts and minds are largely bullshit. Mess with the bull and you get the horns. But this inexcusable shit has got to stop if cops wanna live to see their families after each shift. It’s asshats like Derek Chauvin that cause MY friends, neighbors, and those I don’t know but have sworn to protect (and NOT violate basic human decency) to be in the potential crosshairs of the mob’s ire.
He was subdued. He had no weapon. What’s the worst that happens? They chase a handcuffed man and hit him with a taser?
The City of Minneapolis brought this on itself. Let it burn. They trusted his dumb ass to represent it, they can deal with the consequences.
