I'm actually very pleased that this is still all they have to go on. Twitter rants about Tiny Toesis and Joey Gibson aren't even interesting to other democrats.

In any case the march has just started!

Edit:
They're marching through a busy commercial district full of bars and drunks.

This could be amazing.

The people outside the bars/having drinks and food are cheering. Portland is terminally retarded.
 
The mayor of Portland said that breaking stuff in the city is not ok, but it's ok if the good people do it, and we all know who the good people are. Portland's summer of love is about to begin, that was actually reported from rose city antifa hq. The department of internal affairs said that antifa is gathering some weapons, and the minister of the interior for the Portland police department was also reportedly, by the Portland times, "looked very stressed at a recent press conference where he ensured that there would be no violence." Word on the street is that antifa is going to do something big very soon.
Do you have anymore information or a source?

So, uh, what's the KF consensus on Chauvin's appeals? Mainstream media says overturning convictions on appeal are statistically rare, but that means nothing as there's little about this case that's ordinary. The way I see it, and I am obviously not an expert, he has several arguments for appeal and most of them center on the judge's persistent refusal to declare a mistrial. His refusal to grant a change of venue is another.
 
I have to say something and this is very minor point but why aren't Cops using 4K gopro cameras. I still don't know which part of the body was the nigger shot as the footage still looks low res to me, its probably 720p.

If it's an important piece of equipment, you can be sure the government will buy it from the lowest bidder. If it's something dumb and pointless, it will be extremely expensive.
Storage is the biggest and most prohibitive cost of body cams. Most places have laws that require the footage to be held for 10+ years and 99.99999% of the footage taken is totally irrelevant to anything. A department with 100 officers on shift would produce about 800 hours of footage per shift, 3 shifts a day, 7 days a week, 52 weeks per year, for 10ish years, etc, etc, etc. A lot of departments cut the cost by having cameras officers can turn off and on, but it isn't uncommon for them to record in a lower than ideal quality.

I think the odds are pretty bad considering the weird conviction on all three counts. One of those (the manslaughter) is based on the Noor theory. That might get overturned but that leaves the other two, which seem to be contradictory. Appeals courts don't generally overturn jury verdicts.

However, there are a couple avenues of appeal. One is the motion for change of venue should have been granted. The other is the motion(s) for mistrial should have been granted.

More likely, they throw out another of the counts, still leaving him found guilty of something.

I'm almost thinking the intermediate appeals court will also be afraid of what might happen. The state Supreme Court might have enough security to feel able to deal an actually just verdict, which might still be manslaughter. I've never viewed Chauvin's actions in this case as completely justified and at the very best he fucked up when he continued to use a restraining tactic at the outer limits of what is generally allowed, and ignored the instructions that when an officer has subdued a suspect with this neck kneeling tactic, they are supposed to put them on their side and while maintaining restraint, let them recover.

I'm not convinced that actually killed Floyd. I think he had a heart attack probably because of all the drugs he was on, but the jury found what they found. Appeals courts do not exist to countermand the fact findings of juries (unless they are completely unfounded), but to find whether the trial was conducted in accordance with the law and whether any failure to do that actually affected the outcome.

In short, he's fucked.

From what Alan Dershowtiz, Robert Barnes and lolcow Styx believe, his appeal case has merit but thanks to politics, Chauvin is fucked even if it goes all the way to SCOTUS.

Chauvin's only hope is basically some real deal nigger hating fascist Republican gets elected in the future and gives him a pardon to own the niggers and libs as a fuck you to all of them.

I think he has a better chance of getting a mistrial (and retrial) than getting a full reversal on all counts.

There's an argument when a US congresswoman demands a certain verdict and promises confrontations in the streets if they don't get it, or the constant riots and pressure outside the courtroom. The fact that the jury found him guilty of three contradictory homicide charges can be used to argue that the jury just voted for whatever would make sure less of Minneapolis was burned.

Is MN getting any red (or at least based) governors anytime soon? Walz and the guy before him are blue. With the threats of more chimpouts I can't see any governor with spine enough to pardon.
 
I think a pardon is very unlikely even from a Republican governor. Reversal of murder convictions is not rare and happens plenty. There's a lot to work with in this case. The only question is if any Judge is willing to kick the hornet's nest and overturn the verdict.

On appeal, it's 2 out of 3. At state Supreme Court for Minnesota, it's 4-3. So it isn't just one judge who paints a target on their door.
 
Maxine Walters did not threaten anybody on the jury.
"Eeeeeeh whatever, just because I'm stirring shit and threatening to reduce the city you're currently standing in to rubble doesn't mean I'm actually threatening you! I have no idea what you could be worried about!"

You're all a bunch of babies you guys. If you treat me like a dangerous lunatic when I threaten to kill you all and steal your shit every single time something annoys me, it just means you don't understand the nuances in my positions.

MN hasn't gone red since Nixon and that was by a super duper slim margin.

California will go red before those smug cucks up there do. Plus Somalis are growing there.

This is my unpopular take but I would call Chauvin a lost cause. People generally on the right should write him off and look forward to make sure Kyle Rittenhouse does not get screwed. I have noticed Liberals cut their losses and make sure years later to repay the favor.
