Journalist Liz Collin has released her important documentary, "The Fall of Minneapolis," on the heels of her book, They're Lying: The Media, The Left, and The Death of George Floyd. The documentary is freely available at www.thefallofminneapolis.com, and on Rumble (link).

Two years ago I wrote about how Derek Chauvin and Jesus Christ could share stories about being convicted by a kangaroo court (link). The evidence is only growing.

Here is a short interview Liz Collin did with Michele Tafoya:

Well that’s a take.

I never realized Jesus choked out a person with his knee.
Being that Jesus has superpowers and what not, I'd have expected him to choke somebody out telepathically like Darth Vader.

Imagine, if you will, that if Chauvin and his helpers did not hold Floyd down and deprive him of air, and just hand cuffed him and put him in the police car. He would have just died from an overdose and the 'best of the best' would still be free to arrest other 'bad' people. Perhaps the police will reconsider their over the top actions with fellow humans and take more care.

In case peeps have not heard, Chauvin was stabbed multiple times in a Tucson prison last week. He survived.

In the infancy gospel of Thomas, Jesus curses a few of his playmates at school and they fall dead (he resurrects them later in the story), he also curses one or more of his teachers but I think they just fall unconscious on the ground and don't actually die

Whatever is informing you, you should immediately stop using it.


You think the wife of the chief of police is going to give you nonpartisan information after an incident like this? The chief of police who wore a white power patch on his biking attire?

Give your head a shake.

I wonder if that would have happened if Chauvin had not committed murder and been convicted of it. Had he not murdered the man and just done his duty, perhaps he would not reside in the place where other convicted murderers are housed. To clarify, do you believe that he had the right to choke a man to death? If so, would that be because the police are allowed to kill citizens who they believe spend counterfeit dollars or is it simply that "white makes right" and it's acceptable to kill a black man on sight if you are a white male?

I didn't realize that by not taking a case SCOTUS makes a decision. :scratch:

(This was addressed in the interview video in the OP)
Well, if SCOTUS decides not to take a case, that means the lower court ruling stands. It could be said that SCOTUS agreed with the lower court ruling.

-- A2SG, at least that's how it's generally interpreted.....

Perhaps that is how it is interpreted by the public, but not by anyone familiar with law. There are a variety of reasons the Court might decide not to take a case. It is well-established that the Supreme Court is not obliged to take every case it feels was wrongfully decided. It is supposed to take cases that pertain to central points of law and precedent, and this is what is considered when deciding whether to take a case.

To take the Chauvin case would be, among other things, nationally destabilizing and traumatic. In the original case you had rioting, jury pressuring, and a standing U.S. representative, Maxine Waters, making threats about "confrontation" if a non-guilty verdict occurred (the judge of the case worried that this would provide sufficient grounds for a retrial). There is no court on Earth that wants to touch this case.

In any event, no matter what any individual justice may or may not think....the end result is that the lower court ruling stands.

-- A2SG, and that can be interpreted however you like....

Then that general interpretation is a wrongful interpretation. The Supreme Court gets a ton of appeals, and can only take so many cases per term. According to their website, "The Court receives approximately 7,000-8,000 petitions for a writ of certiorari each Term. The Court grants and hears oral argument in about 80 cases." So of the appeals, only about 1% of them are taken up. While I expect the Supreme Court does agree with the majority of the cases that are appealed to them (or at least would end up agreeing with them after argument is held), I don't think it goes as high as 99%.

In regards to Chauvin's case, it doesn't seem to tick off any of the usual things that would make the Supreme Court pick it up. Is it a circuit split? Definitely not. Does it cover some important constitutional question? Not really. Is any ruling likely to be applicable in future cases? Not that I see. Are there a lot of people clamoring for the Supreme Court to take it up? Not that I know of. Even if Chauvin was treated unfairly, there's not really anything in the case that seems like it would make the Supreme Court want to pick it up over the other thousands of petitions that are sent to them.
