Former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin is serving time in prison for being white and for piss-poor police work
Former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin is serving time in prison for the murder of career criminal George Floyd. But Chauvin did not murder Floyd.
George Floyd died of his own doing. An autopsy revealed that he had ingested a fatal dose of Fentanyl. What kept him alive was that he also had methamphetamine in his system. The deadly effect of the Fentanyl, a powerful depressant, was offset by the meth, a stimulant.
The autopsy also revealed that Floyd had a bad heart. That would help explain why he complained, "I can't breathe." An officer's body cam clearly showed Floyd complaining that he couldn't breathe way before he was thrown to the ground and pinned there by the cops.
One doesn't have to be a pathologist to figure out that a combination of drugs and a bad heart contributed to Floyd's demise, if not actually the direct cause of his death.
Pinning Floyd to the ground for nine minutes while waiting for an ambulance was piss-poor police work.
Chauvin and his fellow cops should have placed Floyd inside a police car while awaiting an ambulance. Or they could have driven him to a jail where the booking officers would have called for an ambulance if they felt it was necessary. The arresting cops could have even rushed Floyd directly to a hospital.
Floyd's death set off Black Lives Matter protests and riots.all over the country. That resulted in Chauvin's political lynching.
Had Chauvin been white, there would have been no protests and he would not have been charged with a crime by both the State of Minnesota and the federal government.
The Minneapolis cops who pinned Floyd to the ground are not the only law enforcement officers that are victims of the BLM riots. Ever since those riots, America's white cops who used deadly force against black men or women have been targeted with criminal investigations by woke prosecutors, even when the use of that force was clearly justified
Chauvin is only guilty of being white and of piss-poor police work, not of murder.
Ben Shapiro, a strong ally of President Trump, and other MAGA supporters have urged the President to pardon Chuvin.
Trump has pardoned the rioters who attacked police officers as they stormed the nation's capitol on January 6, 2021. He has also pardoned some of his crooked supporters.
But Trump hasn't pardoned Derek Chauvin who has committed no crime but is rotting away in prison. Why not?

If pardoned, where would Derek Chauvin live? Possibly Northern Idaho or Montana?
