As much as I enjoy seeing bad cops get what's coming to them, (such as Derek Chauvin) still doesn't change he still has his appeals. Still doesn't change if Chauvin was indeed unfairly done in this, then he does deserve that to be fixed. If I were unfairly done in the courts, I'd want it corrected also. Personally I hope Chauvin never gets out of prison alive. But law overrides my personal feelings. So there's that
George Floyd was a criminal NOT a hero
Shoutout to George Floyd for over two years of sobriety 👏🏼
Free Derek ✊🏻
I want to vomit 🤢 🤮😡
Chauvinism 👹
Murderous POS got off too light.
EVERY reasonable person knows he didn't get a fair trial. He didn't murder Floyd.
Personally I don't believe he should be let out of jail cuz we don't let murderers roaming the streets but I also if he's released I guarantee you there will be Street Justice he's actually safer in jail then out and when did we start calling murderers heroes like WTF🤯🤯🤔🤔
Let's save the tax payers money and just cut to the end result, Appeal denied go back to your cell.
Because we all know that's how it's gonna go.
Sounds about white. A system created by white supremacist racists to serve their whites supremacist racist agenda will never serve non-white people. Ever. Just know that.
Unintentional..Called an ambulance twice… No evidence of racism..at all… Lynching orchestrated by ellison and the dnc..
I don’t see why he was convicted of murder, shouldn’t it have been manslaughter at most?
This guy is a racist police officer of the mighty USA and he is a murderer, the murder he committed is caught on camera for the whole world to see, he can have a retrial as per law but he should not have murdered George Floyd when on video it was seen by the world that the man was incapable of harming the Police Officers as he was gasping for breath and pleading the Police Offices that, " He cannot breath," any human being would even spare the life of a mortal enemy in the condition George Floyd was – but for that, you need to be a Human Being not a USA POLICE RACIST MONSTER. Thanks! I KNOW THE TRUTH HURTS but that is the TRUTH – In the USA and in many predominantly WHITE NATIONS extreme forms of INSTITUTIONAL RACISM and feelings of WHITE SUPREMACY EXITS EVEN in today's so-called scientific and rational world.
It all started with George Floyd's counterfeit $20. That's a fact. How his family turned it into $27 million…well, that is what's wrong with America.
As he should… if you do your own research on the case and watch everything from beginning to end you’ll be mad bc you were lied to and tricked into thinking he was guilty. I’m tired of being lied to honestly and you should be too
If they set him free, we can have another “summer of love.”
I don't know what motivates people to make the argument that a man who murdered a defenceless handcuffed black man should be allowed to walk free. Do they want all murder to be free of accountability?
BACK DA BLUE !! CHAUVIN IS A HERO !!
Good hes innocent and i pray that the court does the right thing this time.
Derek chauvin is a political prisoner no different than Mandela was and like Mandela he should be freed also given 600 million dollars for the injustice he endured along with a trophy from the floyd family thanking him for helping George accomplish 2 things in death that he couldn't accomplish in life one is being sober and the other is being able to take care of his daughter none of this I mean none of this would of been possible if it wasn't for the derek chauvin treatment center that center has a 100 percent no relapse rate 😉
George Floyd was a bad person.
Forget about it.
