Conservatives and the Chauvin sentence
By J.R. Dunn

At first glance, the Chauvin sentence strikes me as middling – not as much as he deserves, more than might be expected from the “criminal justice system,” at this point. At least we didn’t hear the standard response to police misbehavior: “We have investigated and found no evidence of wrongdoing.”

Perhaps a better way to look at it is that Chauvin is getting two years for every minute he squatted on a dying man’s back. That’s what he did. There has been a tendency since the May before last to turn the argument to legal technicalities, legal tricks to muddy the issue: “Well… y’know… it’s not really murder…  and it’s not manslaughter, either… and not negligent homicide, sorta, in a way… So… I guess that’s it then. Good afternoon, officer, sorry to have inconvenienced you.”

He squatted, like a malignant toad, on a dying man’s back for nearly ten minutes. That’s what’s at issue here. It makes no difference that Floyd was a punk, a habitual offender who spent much of his adult life in prison. It makes no difference how high he was. It makes no difference what the semantics or legal terminology might be. That’s what Chauvin was judged for, and that’s what he’ll do time for. You can’t do what he did in God’s country and just walk away.
