I think a lot of people are missing the point. Chauvin’s life was over already. He was never going to be acquitted. It isn’t right, but I have no sympathy for him. Any cop that is too unsophisticated to understand optics and how the media can spin things doesn’t belong on the force.

Whatever the juror’s individual political positions are, they knew damn well it wasn’t Chauvin’s life that was on the line, it was theirs. If they had found him innocent, they, and likely their immediate families, would have all been murdered. They know it, we know it. Chauvin is irrelevant. What this represents is the final death of justice, where outside coercion can always determine the outcome of trials.

This has actually been a thing since Rodney King, you likely just haven't noticed.

Hell, when the cops who killed Malice Green went on trial, the glipglops were all gathered on street corners, just waiting to riot if they didn't like the outcome. But they were found guilty (as everyone knew they'd be), and they all went home without bothering to do anything. I'm damn sure this sort of thing has played out in different cities since.

This is just higher profile stuff, crap shoved in your face for political reasons.
