    I get the sense that it’s a foregone conclusion they are guilty. Three of these were rookies. For one of them, it was his fourth day. There are threats of riots if twelve true and honest good souls find them innocent.

    As the Minnesota AG warned, this is not a slam dunk. They must be able to objectively prove the charges. It may not be possible to prove 1st or 2nd degree murder. Case in point, Casey Anthony.

    Just like George Floyd, these men have a right to their day in court to explain themselves to their peers and submit to their honest judgment.

    If history is a guide...they'll get MORE than a fair trail. If in the unlikely event that they are found guilty, their punishment will be incredibly light

    How will America react? Probably not well

    Not at this point they will not. The media and the left are all in on the racist theme so if these cops are not found guilty they will look foolish......like after the Zimmerman trial.

    Personal opinion.

    Because his was the action that actually killed Floyd, regardless of other factors that may or may not have been underlying, Chauvin will likely be found guilty. The others will not be found guilty of charges that put them in jail, but held responsible for their inaction to stop what Chauvin was doing.

    But can they prove their case to twelve true and good honest souls. The powers to be have a vested interest to throwing them to the mob. But jurors? That’s a high hurdle.

    Not really. The jurors in the Zimmerman case were hounded to find a verdict of guilty. Luckily they made the right decision. The left and media mob will do whatever it takes to try and get a guilty verdict. They have no interest in justice.

    That’s not an established fact. He was taking depressants ( Fentanyl) and stimulants (meth) simultaneously. That's a deadly combination.

    What would be justice in your view in this case?

    When did two wrongs make a right? How does acting unjustly defeat injustice?

    It's interesting that only now is some of the background information that the media outlets should have bothered to get BEFOE encouraging rioting in the streets, finally beginning to surface. That aside, yes, these men will receive fair and honest trials and the facts will determine the outcome and that will be for the simple reason that by the time the trial happens, the nation and the blood thirsty leftist-allied media outlets will be vigorously chasing other squirrels.

    A fair trial and the media reporting the truth for once.

    Okay, so in your opinion as of right now, what should happen to the four officers?

    An impartial review of the facts and appropriate charges brought. Tell the mob to go pound sand.

    When the four men have theirs. Blind rage fueled by hatred spawned by delusions is not justice, it’s mob lynching.

    Can't get more fair than showing the actual video of a knee on Floyd's neck and 4 men ignoring his pleas.

    Must be objectively proved in a court of law, if it’s a just world you seek and not a madman’s free-for-all.

    You are already suffering from a delusion—one man didn’t ignore it, he questioned it. As well as ignorance—first degree murder requires motive and intent. That’s a high bar.

    Do unto others as yous would have them do unto yous..Yes, the pig will get a trail and will get off with a misdemeanor(if there is a trial),, and you can crow about justice being served.

    Whatever the truth is. Whatever the facts show. Not the blind rage of the ignorant and hateful.
