BLM Activist Sat on the Chauvin Jury After Claiming He Could Be ‘Impartial’, Tells People to Get on Juries to ‘Spark Change’

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/202...-spark-change/

..“I mean it’s important if we wanna see some change, we wanna see some things going different, we gotta into these avenues, get into these rooms to try to spark some change,” he said. “Jury duty is one of those things. Jury duty. Voting. All of those things we gotta do.”...
Chauvin will get a new trial after this and mad Maxine's statements and rightfully so.

Why is everything about race? Law and order, right and wrong apply no matter what the color of one's skin. In this case, it happens to be a white guy. I'd be equally concerned if this were a Black man. It's why I donate to the Equal Justice Initiative, The Innocence Project, and even the SPLC. I believe in justice, equality, and fairness - even for obnoxious white male police officers. Based on Chauvin's history, he probably has no business wearing a badge. However, that's a separate issue and doesn't mean he should get jail time for doing something that isn't even illegal. We're letting the mob mentality take over the criminal justice system. You should be terrified that this is happening. The fact that Blacks were the recipient of unfair treatment in the past doesn't mean it's OK to treat people unfairly based on skin color now.

there's not a soul here who is under the impression that the jury was compromised of a single person.
Yet all the clucking hens are ignoring that the other 11 that got to the same conclusion fast.

Don't get me wrong, there is probably enough just from Maxine Waters opening her pie hole for an appeal and this could add to that.

That may be a moot point:

If a juror is proven to not be impartial, it really doesn't matter what they said.

Before being selected, Mitchell filled out this questionnaire. On it, he said he never attended protests over police brutality in Minnesota or beyond.

Shocker, an activist lied in pursuit of advancing their political goals...in this case, lynching a man.

In a just system. The activist would be charged with perjury and made an example of....but they are in an area controlled by the far left so surely he'll get away with it, encouraging others to do the same.

Yeah, your feelings and emotions TOTALLY aren't compromising you to produce a coherent thought at all.
