No but half the United States is Twitter.
It's such a dumb argument, "The internet isn't real life." Well first of all, it literally is, it's probably the biggest part of peoples' lives aside from TV, up to and including boomers and children. And then secondly, the people who are the most extremely online are the ones actually influencing public policy. Remember in 2020 when major cities across the United States were on fire? Those were internet people. In fact the more you know about the Black community the more you realize they get most of their awareness about America from either music videos or Black social media.
 
I think it really depends how MSM will handle it.
There will be chimpouts but if MSM keeps the reporting to a minimum, let it fade out after a couple of days and they
let the riot police go in very hard then it will be over in a few days.

About the same happened when the cops got acquitted in the Breonna Tayler and Jacob Blake cases.

Today BLM isn't needed anymore so I wouldn't be surprised it that's going to happen. I guess we'll find out in a few days/weeks.
I can hear that chimping out theme already.

Are you sure about that huwhite man.
Yes. China and America are two one legged giants leaning against eachother. China is reliant on America buying up its excess to maintain its functionality. A weakened America is good for China, a -weak- America means it falls with us.

Twitter isn't the entire internet

Urban cities aren't the entire United States, despite what CNN wants you to think.
 
Apart from this thread, Legal Insurrection has been pretty good at breaking things down and keeping everything up to speed. They run it live as well. They break down court procedure basic enough for anyone interested. They also link hour long clips of those segments in the trial they break down, so overall very useful.

that policy is fucked
 

A lot of places do that, I'm pretty sure that shit isn't legal. Normally, a workplace would just take the loss and tell the cashier to be more careful. And of course the pussy manager didn't even want to confront George himself. This situation was unnecessarily escalated in every way, so dumb.
 
The whole store is, they gonna get killed now that their name and faces have been broadcasted in public television
I have the feeling the Store and its owners already got fucked up in the past riots, it looks like a hotspot for joggers, just look at all those black folk entering and leaving
 
China is reliant on America buying up its excess to maintain its functionality
If China was actually a competently run state they'd be aware of this and go all out on creating the biggest infrastructure project in history which would give them control of supply and trade routes from developing countries which would give them a young consumer base to sell to independent of America.

You may find this interesting.
I don't think I believe this one. Something about the way it's written doesn't feel right.
With great gusto and shamelessness.

“I was really incredulous that someone would actually go to the effort of finding the report in its original form,” Mohn said. “It seemed almost more audacious than just writing a slur or putting up something more overtly hateful.”
“The entire message was that he was responsible for his own demise,” Mohn said. “That because he tested positive for drugs or because he had one $20 bill that was counterfeit that he deserved to be executed. I think it was racist in a way that absolved the White police officer that had been kneeling on him.”
Later that afternoon, according to Mohn and the Chronicle, students met with Blackshear to discuss the incident. Michael Manns, a freshman who lives down the hall from where the flier was found, told CNN the incident left him “terrified.”
“I remember shaking in that moment,” Manns, who is Black, told CNN. “That happened right down the hall from where I sleep, from where I’m supposed to be safe. … The thought that it could be someone I’ve lived with all these months really terrified me.”
Clown world is only just beginning, buddy. There's no getting off the ride.
 
Why on earth would they just do what random untrained people, many hostile, tell them to do?

A sense of entitlement.

A large reason why we have so many issues with the police is that people today, especially joggers are
1) filled with sense of entitlement to have anything everything right now, and do whatever they want
2) never held accountable or told no
So when a cop tells them for the first time in their lives that they can't do whatever criminal thing they are doing they go into ultrachimp mode and then get shot.

From watching the trial for three days now and browsing social media, it increasingly looks like Chauvin will be acquitted and the majority of the country will have absolutely no idea why. Not good.

They are doing it on purpose because they want riots, obviously.
 
The united states isn't twitter, bro
I wish people would fucking stop acting like social media matters. If you say a bunch of gamer words and people find your employer it *might* affect you, and that sucks, but otherwise it means fuck all what people on Twitter think. I have known a fairly broad cross-section of people ranging from based as fuck to woke as fuck and nearly all of them think Twitter is a dumping ground for emotionally unhinged degenerate failures. Taking the opinions of Twitter as reality is like listening to someone on Kiwi Farms: retarded.
 
So this is the thread that has finally pulled me out of lurking because despite y'all's colourful language, this is actually the most rational discussion I've found regarding this trial. God help us all.

Prosecution have fucked up big-time with this, I assume because they were banking on riding the coattails of Chauvin's Trial by Media all the way to a full set of guilty verdicts. Their narrative is confused at best, and their witnesses are low-calibre and mostly detrimental so far. Defense are going to have an easy time establishing reasonable doubt, and rightly so.

Chauvin acted like a twat, but his restraint was comfortably within the official MPD use-of-force framework. He did not break the law, because being an asshole is not a crime. And unfortunately for BLM, uniformed knee-jerk public opinion does not form the basis of the legal system.

Honestly, the SJWs should be satisfied that this absolute farce of a trial may act as a catalyst for revision of restraint guidelines, because that would at least potentially save a few lives down the line if speedballing and consequently being a volatile criminal idiot becomes trendy. But they won't be; they are baying for blood having jumped on the virtue-signalling hype train without ever stopping to look at the evidence in the case they are apparently so invested in. Fucking lunacy.
