Yes. Statistics show that when BLM moves in, homicides go up. It’s a taste of what abolishing the police will look like.

I would be interested to see those statistics.

It also shows that when covid lockdowns happen and people lose their jobs and activities to blow off steam, homicides go up.

Is that what you meant by more covid deaths?

Jury reached its verdict. Not long now.

Strap in.

Reportedly at 3:30 central time.

Edit: 3:30-4:00

Edit 2: Apparently I didn’t know WTF I was talking about here as it is 4:02, and no released verdict.

I wish this was just a movie. The whole situation has been so compelling, it’s sad to think about the lives and real people who have been affected and who will be impacted.

Oh boy, I am convinced he is guilty of 2nd degree manslaughter. I am not convinced on the other two, but I haven’t listened to the whole case.

The outside of the courthouse is swamped with people…

This could get very ugly.

Republican resolution to censure Maxine Waters voted down 216-210.

Or neither but if I am in that jury and I know that if I put up not guilty, I have to put faith in those other jurors not doxxing me. That’s a big call and we know other jury candidates didn’t think they were safe.
