I see the “pensions” bit a lot, and I think it’s valid, but Chauvin really changed the calculus for police officers. It’s one thing to screw up and lose your job, but cops who engage with a black criminal after 2020 are literally rolling the dice with their own freedom. Things can easily escalate beyond their control, and doing everything by the book is no guarantee that they won’t end up in prison for life (or until they get stabbed to death by an inmate). I can’t fathom having that kind of job. Judging by the retirement numbers, most cops couldn’t fathom it either.
Rear Naked Choke, for anyone else as confused as me what the Republican National Committee had to do with fighting moves.
Security was pathetic. Whay even were those limp-wrist punches? Everybody scared of getting Chauvinned?
I don't think that dude sitting next to the judge was security.
Their pensions are more important than the judge's safety. Please understand.
