    I am not condoning violence. I am condemning senseless death. Anyone who killed or destroyed property are also subject to justice but George's death was not right and changing the conditions that allowed it would be the embodiment of justice.

    You have got to be kidding. Did you read Gen. Mattie's statement about Trump trashing our Constitution? Read it!

    You simply refuse to show outrage when violence is done in a direction you dont care about. This is the problem, this is why the violence will get worse. This is why civil war is coming.

    You cannot allow decades of false narratives driven by anecdotes to cloud your thinking. Yet thats all democrats and their voters have done.

    I dont like it anymore than anyone else, but this is the reality of the situation.

    I've read it and genuinely do not care what that person thinks. He has not trashed the constitution from an objective standpoint. The reality is it isn't Trumps fault violent leftists only needed a catalyst to start rioting and looting and murdering. This is the result of democrats and their lies.

    President Trump has done a great job.

    Thats not Ellison's son in the image so let's stop pretending. As for crimes, he prefers his wives and girlfriends battered. Ask that prick about Amy Alexander.

    Prove he intended to kill him and that he was the cause of the death not the cardiac distress then arrest.

    The guy in the picture is not Ellison's son. It is Ellison. Just ignore that huge fact and it makes your posts seem so much smarter.


    "The Democratic congressman posted a photo on Twitter Wednesday of himself posing with the book "Antifa: The Anti-Fascist Handbook." The book calls violence during "a small though vital sliver of anti-fascist activity."
    Ellison's post said the book should "strike fear into the heart" of President Donald Trump.

    I do not believe you ! Therefore I would have to verify that what you are saying was not taken out of context and of not photoshopped. If by outdid chance you are right then one needs to wonder how Ellison could actually have been elected Atty Gen of Minnesota.

    I listed what the charges that is all so why are you telling me to proove it? That is for the posecutor to proove. It is up to you to harass the prosecutor to proove the cop is guilty not me.

    I am not defending Ellison but if he is a criminal as you say then it is up to you to bring the proof. Where is your proof?

    That's what's going to have to happen in court. What is the proof Chauvin intended to kill Floyd?

    Why does he have to bring proof when you just exempted yourself from having to do so?

    Because I did not make any accusations of guilt. I posted what the charges were against those cops.

    Way better if he stays. If he makes a mistake in the prosecution of these officers he will be toast.

    Powerful men have a way to stifle the voices on women. As for proof, I tonl you, just utter the name Amy Alexander in front of him.

    Keep your fingers in your ears. Not my problem that you refuse to believe facts. Do some research on your own so you won't look so gullible or naive.

    As some of you may know my Dad was a DA for 15 years. He said the absolute hardest cases to prosecute were cops in these kinds of cases. He said he'd rather prosecute a priest, a lawyer, a nun, a politician or a doctor over a cop. Its incredibly hard to win these cases. You have the 'blue wall' to contend with ( cops protecting cops) , the uniform itself is filled the nothing but symbolism of authority, and association with protection and courage, the fact that police officers are the closest thing to a 'professional' witness' you can find ( they are the hardest witnesses to break secondary to tons of experience both with the rules of evidence, and testifying) the burden of proof and the assumption of risk, and the fact they end up hiring the best attorneys per buck ( they know the good ones from bad ones, and know exactly what they are looking for, and the police union often helps fund them through an insurance policy)

    You have to find 12 jurors willing to convict that cop. If just one of them simply won't convict a cop or insists on giving them the benefit of EVERY DOUBT, or won't believe the black man should be trusted, you have a hung jury at best. Just one.

    In case you are curious, lawyers are not as tough on a witness stand as cops, according to my Father, because they can't stop thinking like lawyers to settle in on the 'witness' role. They inevitably end up being argumentative, or playing coy, and coming across as arrogant or slightly deceitful.
