I hate when black people get mistreated by the p0lice and everybody start digging up every little background Info they can find on the person so they can justify it....
My latest with @lanesam: An emotional and tense day at the trial of Derek Chauvin, who stands charged in the death of George Floyd. Witnesses —including teens, a 9 year old and a fire fighter — said they pleaded with officers out of fear for Floyd’s life. https://t.co/HGQOFuBvU8
A correction and reminder to myself and others: #GeorgeFloyd is NOT on trial.
When referring to this trial, we should call it the #ChauvinTrial.
George Floyd is dead. Chauvin killed him.
Derek Chauvin is the one on trial, for kneeling on his neck and murdering George Floyd.
Donald Williams wipes at his eyes ad prosecutors play his 911 call from the scene. He “called police on police” said Chauvin “pretty much killed a guy.” #ChauvinTrial
Everything you hear today will attempt to assassinate George Floyd’s character, but remember... this the trial of #DerekChauvin, not #GeorgeFloyd! #ChauvinTrial
