Agree with the verdict has nothing to do with justice.

However I do think he is guilty of being stupid and an idiot. Once handcuffed there was no reason for him to continue to kneel of GF. If he would have gotten up off of GF he probably wouldn't be going to jail now.

The optics were bad. Do I believe the optics should be the narrative? No. But with all of the cameras rolling and the goldfish attention span most people have the optics become the narrative.

Someone said the judge should have privately asked each juror if they heard Maxine Waters before the verdict, if they did, declare a mistrial.

Even if they did and all of them claimed they didn't, I would not believe them. Of coarse they saw her comments. They were all over the place. One could not have avoided them.

Juror. I was worried about rioting and destruction and people coming to my house to protest.

DOJ was immediately going to arrest Derek Chauvin if he was found not guilty.
