The bail system works. It's better than letting criminals back on the street without consequences. Liberal judges have let people back out without bail and they go on to rape or kill again. Blood on their hands. Disgusting they care more about criminals than the innocent. It's twilight zone stuff.

The person who probably should have been in prison was Floyd.


He spent every waking moment of hisadult life getting high and assaulting pregnant women with drugs.


It' is the Twilight Zone that this society acts like they cared about a career criminal when none of you would have allowed that career criminal within 100 yards of your homes.

Chauvin's judge made key errors, one of which was refusing to sequester the jury from media coverage and the racial protests that roiled America and Minneapolis. By allowing the aroma of bias to waft into the jury room, he may have given an appeals court a reason to use the Sheppard standard to set Chauvin free.

We don’t sentence most offenders to life. Millions of people get high and shouldn’t. Many people have arrest records or been to jail, none of these are reason or justification to abuse your authority and murder.

Most people have commented on his emotionless response. No sign of surprise or fear at all. Like he knew what was coming.
No. That IS what I saw. His eyes were darting from left to right and back again. Like a caged monster. It's easy to read his eyes. The mask only made it simpler.

He did look like a deer in the head lights. He looks like Gestapo.

Those are my thoughts too. No license to kill for you, Chauvin.

He served 8 jail terms. After a certain point, a person has established himself as a hopeless criminal - especially when his criminal acts were violent - and should be locked up for life. It’s safer for society that way.

Well I saw him too and I disagree. He knew what was coming. So, your opinion is as valid as mine.

You can’t keep criminals in jail after they served their time. Deserves to be locked up for life? That’s what the courts are for, not the thug street cop.
