 The American Left Now Knows That Threatening To Riot Works Perfectly

While Americans were pleased to avoid another round of riots over Floyd’s death, it’s obvious that riots or the threat of them, are now a 'normal' response.

By Jonathan S. Tobin
April 22, 2021

On April 21, America held its collective breath. When the news broke that the jury in the murder trial of Derek Chauvin had arrived at a verdict, the fate of the nation’s cities was hanging in the balance. As the boarded-up storefronts in urban areas and suburbs from coast to coast showed, there was little doubt that if a Minneapolis jury didn’t produce the verdicts many people wanted, riots would ensue.

When Judge Peter Cahill read the verdicts, the nation heaved a sigh of relief. The conviction on all three counts against the former Minneapolis police officer — second-degree unintentional murder, third-degree murder, and second-degree murder — for the death of George Floyd, means Chauvin faces up to 40 years in prison. But more was at stake in the trial than just his future.

The widespread outrage generated by the appalling nine-minute video that depicted Chauvin kneeling on Floyd’s neck set off a summer of “mostly peaceful” protests orchestrated by the Black Lives Matter movement. The BLM movement and advocates of critical race theory about “white privilege” used Floyd’s death at the hands of a white cop to justify their assertions that not only was there an epidemic of police shootings of black men but that America was guilty of institutional racism.

The demonstrations they orchestrated in response to the case transformed Floyd into a martyr for civil rights. Millions attended demonstrations in the weeks and months that followed. Hundreds of these “mostly peaceful” protests around the country turned into riots in which neighborhoods were burned. Stores were looted, resulting in casualties and deaths involving law enforcement personnel and civilians.

The Rodents have known this since the Double Jeopardy Trial of those cops that arrested that drug-addled male prostitute Rodney King.   
The GOP is not the party leadership.  The GOP is the party MEMBERSHIP.   The members need to kick the leaders out if they leaders are going the wrong way.  No coddling allowed.

It cannot be in any doubt that, for now, the violent mobs are in charge. Whether the Chauvin jury came to their conclusion because they were really convinced the evidence was against the cop or they were trying to appease the violent mobs, the fact is the mobs have not been shy about exclaiming it was the violence that influenced the verdict.

I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

America has transformed radically left in the last fifty years. Committed leftists are now in charge of many major American cities and states. Oregon is a prime example with a leftist mayor in charge of Portland and a leftist governor. But it is not the only major city and state. Numerous other cities and states have leftists in charge. Remember, they were elected not appointed.
Until these people are ousted (don't hold your breath), we will continue down the ruinous path of catering to the most ignorant and violent segments of the population. It is the latter who are dictating terms.

We may reach a point where "the jury system" is no longer workable for racially-charged cases.

Perhaps Derek Chauvin would have been better advised to have his case heard at a "bench trial" -- by a single judge who would render a verdict based on the evidence.
