God knows why this took so long. None of it justifies rioting/looting, but if he was arrested sooner (as he should have been regardless), it is likely some of the backlash would have been toned down.

But yeah I would charge before that.
So now we charge according to rioters?
The video speaks for itself. What he did was illegal. It may turn out that they guy died of some undetermined pre-existing condition, but what the kneeling cop did was illegal and appears to have led directly to his death (i.e., appears to be murder). If this was a civilian on civilian act, the perpetrator would be behind bars right now. Maybe a coroners report would allow the perpetrator to be only guilty of assault, battery, etc., but he still would have been arrested and charged with something.
First this is what the ME said:
“The Hennepin County medical examiner mirrored that call for patience, saying an autopsy to determine a cause and manner for Floyd’s death cannot be rushed — even as protesters demanded that Chauvin swiftly be charged with murder.”
Second, you are not only looking to charge him, you are looking to charge the 3 others who are going to have a much stronger defense.
Third, you just handed all them one of the best defenses that is always used where possible, rush to judgment.
It was stupid, contrary to good investigative practices and done only to appease rioters.

Parallel with the failure of democrat policies.
while a white reporter a bricks throw away was not taken into custody.
I’m thinking it’s not a lefty or liberal thing.

painted was being told. You only want to fan the racial flames.
