Why do you guarantee it? If there are, they don’t care enough to do anything about their community shitting the bed, or their numbers aren’t big enough to give them confidence in their position. From polling, blacks seem to want to have their cake and eat it too w/r/t police: They want cops to be there to keep them safe but not to have any power over them because it’s unfair, racist etc. to arrest them or enforce the law when they break it.

I think a larger portion of blacks may simply not care, too caught up in the daily hustle of survival/their own dysfunctional lives to be engaged in politics, and if they riot it’s because it’s an opportunity to get free shit.
Most of the blacks that don’t want to riot downtown live far away from shithole cities. I know it only qualifies as anecdotal evidence, but I’ve met unanimous disapproval for the riots among blacks offline. It’s really just a loud (literal) minority, the same way despite a 5x over representation in violent crime, only 1/50 black are reported as violent offenders. Is that a high number? Yes, troublingly so, but it isn’t remotely a majority or considered a generally approved way of life.
 
I ordered a bunch of shit for my house and have been autistically refreshing the tracking hoping it would clear potential chimpout zones before the verdict. I'm so fucking relieved I got all but one today and the last one gets here tomorrow and is not likely to go through any monkeyzones.
Lol yeah. Got an order that departed St Paul this morning. Just in time.
 
I'm enjoying the trial, yes. Either a murdering cop faces justice or we go out into the streets and make our own justice. It's pretty rare that you can watch a highly politicized trial like this and know that no matter which way the verdict goes, everything's going to be okay.
No matter what its a win for the transgender communinty

I mean...that's only true if you don't live in the US. but I guess it really is like George Carlin said: "When you're born to this world, you get a ticket to the freak show. And if you're born in the US? You get a front-row seat!"

a shame, though, that for those that qualifies might wind up with the freaks tumbling over the stage and over their seats!

I hope that at least some members of the jury have at least two brain cells to rub together and realize that there will be peaceful riots regardless of the verdict.

how long does it normally take an american jury to reach a verdict

whats the av. deliberation time
A couple hours most of the time. But that's because the average case has stronger evidence and less grey area than this. I think anything less than a couple days is optimistic, but they can technically go on until a verdict is reached, or the jury decides it's not going to make any progress.

I'm curious how many rioters even live in the vicinity of what's being destroyed. It reminds me of when my school won a national championship and 75% of the people arrested for rioting on the campus were from out of state. Not many people shit where they eat.
 
Anyone who has a timer to a verdict is a fucking liar. It’s bait, don’t fall for it. Length of deliberation also doesn’t matter. It’ll happen when it happens.
Remember when CNN had the timer for when the Malaysians flights blackbox battery would expire even though it was complete nonsense since nobody knew exactly when it crashed?
