Yep absolutely. I think it will trigger an actual civil war. For the record, I think he has to be convicted because what he did was truly heinous.

For me to consider it heinous I would have to believe he intended to kill Floyd and that he did so maliciously. I do think he acted in an extremely irresponsible manner and that had he not used that means of restraint George Floyd might still be alive today. He'll be found guilty of at least one of the murder charges against him and that's on him.

No way a jury is going to not put this guy behind bars. Most likely the last charge of 3rd degree murder. No jury will want to see the cities burn again. He is pretty much going to be the sacrificial lamb at the alter of BLM and every other SJW group.

If the jury declares him guilty because they fear a potential reaction rather than because the evidence showed him to be guilty beyond a reasonable doubt, then those jurists are as anti-American as they can be.

I think it's a bit more complicated than that. The animals that are demanding blood will stop at nothing if they don't get their desired outcome, and are those jurors truly "anonymous?" If I was a juror on the case there's no doubt that I would have a lingering fear in the back of my mind that sooner or later one of the "unity of peace" people will find a way to identify me, doxx me, threaten me, and most importantly threaten my family. I'm not saying anything beyond judging based solely on facts should even be considered, but the leftist mob spends their free time trying to destroy the lives of others, and if I were a juror I'd be worried that one day one of them would attack my daughter or wife when least suspected.
