Well since murder is real and witchcraft is not, I don't think we will look back on this in couple centuries and think anything special of it.

 

Again, your analogy is bad and you should feel bad.

Wait, are we comparing the Chauvin trial to the Salem Witch Trials? :roll:

When you think you've seen peak delusion someone comes around and blows it out of the water.

Well obviously if he sinks, he has a big heart and couldn’t have possibly intended to kill him, hence it must’ve been manslaughter

that fact that anyone gives you and your piss poor kz impressions any attention, is astounding. 

Yes, Floyd was a piece of crap, and so is Chauvin. Trouble is Chauvin killed Floyd , not the other way around. Chauvin got probably less than what he deserved imo and I don't hate cops.

The fact that so few people can recognize a mass hysteria even after mankind has experienced it time and again throughout history is astounding

Every case is fact dependent.  On the one hand, Garner shouldn’t have sold illegal cigarettes and should not have resisted arrest.  On the other hand, the police used a prohibited choke hold.  On the other hand Garner had health issues which may have been the cause of his ultimate demise.

In that case there’s a question of law.  If someone dies and an illegal police act merely "contributes” to someone’s death, is that murder?  I would be happy to re-examine that law if not the case

Maybe we need like a health "Miranda rights” where an officer must ask if a person has any health issues before making an arrest?

Chauvin used a technique which was not an illegal choke hold.  The knee on neck technique was in the manual 

We return to my original question.  Can you name a single case where a black guy dies near a police officer and it’s not the officers fault?  Should we just never arrest black people in case they might have a heart attack at the time of arrest?

Chauvin used a knee to the neck while in the prone position which violated Police Policy and Training. So yeah, that move was not legal or authorized. So, can you name a case where a Police officer is actually held responsible for killing a black guy? Just one? 

I didn't think so. It's clear that no matter what cops do, it's ok to kill black guys. No matter the circumstances. You will always find an excuse for the Police.

No but I can’t name a case where an officer is held responsible for killing a white guy either, and I’m not arguing police should never be held accountable, only that in the case of Chauvin it wasn’t intentional and that he should get whatever the normal punishment is for police who unintentionally kill a person regardless of color

However I would grant that Kim Potter does deserve punishment for accidentally killing that black kid.  Mistaking a gun for a taser is the very sort of out of this world incompetence that does actually deserve punishment

YEAH, that's exactly what you are arguing. Because the victim robbed a store, or the victim had some sort of health condition or the victim was on drugs, or the victim resisted, then the officer shouldn't be responsible for the  victim's death. That's exactly what you are saying. You accept the Defense Argument even though the Jury dismissed it based on the evidence presented. You don't believe Chauvin should be found guilty because he didn't do anything wrong. That says a lot about you.

However, In this case, Intent is not an element of the crime charged. Not all murder is intentional. In this case 2nd degree murder is felony murder. Chauvin was found guilty of assaulting George Floyd. The Assault is a Felony. During the commission of the enumerated felony (assault) if the victim dies, you are guilty of the murder. That is the Felony murder rule in Minnesota.

Fine then intent is back in play

Wrong. Again. There are degrees of assault in Minnesota. You are arguing Assault in the 5th Degree to prove your point. However that is clearly wrong as I have stated. Assault in the Frist Degree is a Felony punishable by up to 20 years in prison. I think the Prosecutors in Minnesota know the law better than you.

Gotta read the definitions for every chapter, check section 609.02

also see what "great bodily harm” means while you’re there

Currently we are arguing the second degree murder charge.  Let’s stick to that.  Did you read the definitions?

Do you base your guilty verdicts only on complaints?

No currently, I'm stating that your definition of assault is BS. You just need to stop. 

He was found guilty. Suck on it.
