Temapache 5 things about the #ChauvinTrial

1. George Floyd is not on trial.

2. Nothing he did justifies Derek Chauvin sitting on his neck for 9 minutes, 29 seconds.

3. His death was not caused by drugs or poor health.

4. Nor was it caused by eyewitnesses.

5. Film the police. pic.twitter.com/CUJbuMpcxf

It shouldn’t be so difficult to hold police officers accountable for blatant misconduct. Especially when it’s on video for millions to see.

We need to end qualified immunity.

Minneapolis Police Lt. Richard Zimmerman just testified that the force Derek Chauvin used on George Floyd was “totally unnecessary” and “uncalled for.”

He said, “Putting your knee on the neck for that amount of time is just uncalled for.”

2 paramedics who testified at Derek Chauvin’s trial say that #GeorgeFloyd did not appear to be breathing when they arrived.

Floyd was still handcuffed. One said Chauvin was still on top of Floyd when they arrived, and no medical help was being provided: “I thought he was dead.” pic.twitter.com/sFBKQNz14v

“The crowd really shouldn’t have an effect on your actions.” Lt. Zimmerman blows another gigantic hole in the Chauvin defense team’s case, this time destroying the racist “angry mob” scenario.

“When I see that look Chauvin gave the onlookers, I see more than heartlessness. I see arrogance and superiority. . .I see Chauvin demonstrating that he, not Floyd, got to decide whether Floyd was allowed to breathe.”
