Did Derek Chauvin get a fair trial?
The verdict on the Derek Chauvin trial is now in. Guilty on all counts. Second- and third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter. Do you think Derek got a fair trial? In the days before the trial verdict came in the climate in the nation was all tense from apprehension and fear of mass demonstrations, riots, looting and violence everywhere if the verdict did not come in in the “right” way. Governors of states were putting their national guards on high readiness in preparation for the wrong verdict. Democratic Congresswoman Maxine Waters, urged protesters in Minnesota to "stay on the street" and "get more confrontational" if they didn’t see a guilty verdict. Do you think the members of the jury were not aware of what was going on and what would happen if they gave a “wrong” verdict? If you had been on the jury would you have dared to vote for innocence? I think if any jury member had voted for innocence his life, the life of his family, and his property would have been in great danger. That is a lot of pressure on a member of a jury.
Intimidation. That is the way the Left thinks. Reprisal, rioting, looting, burning down cities if you don’t get your way. It has happened a few times. We know what to expect. That is the mentality of a whole lot of Blacks in this country. They jump up and down, stamp their feet, and burn down our cities.
Now all of the top influential Democratic figures are effusive with praise on the verdict. The verdict was absolutely the right one they say.
It does seem to me that homosexuals and Blacks have a gigantic amount of influence and power here in America. A power far disproportionate to their numbers. Our politicians and legislators, left and right, appear to cringe before them. Over the last 50 years a whole lot of legislation has been enacted to appease them. Legislation that has turned this country into a radically different country, turned it upside down. All of our “political correctness” has come from these groups.
For many, many years now these two groups has dominated the intellectual discussion in our universities — there has been an intellectual hang-up with their concerns, their complaints and demands. Their interests have become more important than the interests and concerns of the other 90% of the country. Their interests have trumped majority interests. Majority interests has been sacrificed to please a small minority. A tail has been wagging a dog.
The LGBTQ agenda and the radical Black agenda. The gays and the radical Blacks. They appear to be the major pillars and ruling influence in the Democratic Party. These two power groups have been dominating American life. The distortions they have produced on American society is positively amazing. The country has been twisted, warped, bent, and reconstructed to please them. The old Christian outlooks and values have been overruled, discarded, and destroyed. The new American values and outlooks are gay-centric and Black-centric. If you don’t like it you are marginalized — called a bigot, racist, and every other nasty name. It does seem to me like we are being ruled by them.
