To convict Derek Chauvin it was somewhat necessary to prove he acted outside the law. To hobble the Minneapolis police it'll be necessary to contradict that...

Sometimes one little thing is easily obscured by much bluster. If you gather up a few of those "little things" you may notice they are mutually exclusive in a sane world. Sane world R.I.P. The Leftist attacks on the police make sense because they own the FBI/CIA/NSA, academia, media, big tech, big business, politics, judges, prosecutors, fake defense attorneys etc. This explains why you get that feeling you've already seen this movie (when you turn on the news). Politicians want law enforcement to fear them--or fear for their future livelihoods. Cops need to know they are more or less the "last man standing". 

Derek Chauvin was just as peaceful as the protestors. Ouch. A cop's actions don't justify what the protesters did, it's idiotic to think otherwise. That would be like letting the Chinese handle your manufacturing needs because it's good for the environment. Just sayin'
