Think this is good timing for this since major protests are being planned for the weekend, so I don't think the news right now will cause a decrease in protests.

I am honestly pissed that more people are not talking about the badge covers and buying the solidarity reason. This is the kind of dog whistle behavior that lets they fuckers think they can do what they want without consequence.

The whole twitter thread was great. It's really the conversation I feel that has been missing the last few days with all the lip service to institutional racism and structural change.

I only took two classes on American criminal law, but doesn’t a second degree murder charge require a degree of premediation and intent proven beyond reasonable doubt? If anything that increases his chances of getting acquitted.

Yeah upping the charges seems like a dumb idea, I know that they want a heavier charge so they're in Jail longer, but second degree will most likely get thrown out and he'll just get manslaughter.

Then riots will start again....

Not in Minisoda, second degree doesn't require pre-med only an equivalent bachelors.

I hate the arguments about cops being paid highly - they should be. Policing needs to change and sure instinctively I hate the idea that these people get paid a lot of money to crack skulls, cover their badges, and throw white power signs, but its not really the being paid a lot that is the problem there.

"We had the virus beaten until those protests" is absolutely going to be a talking point, despite still hovering around a thousand deaths a day.
