Just heard the news announce that at 4:30 pm a verdict will be announced in the Chauvin Trial. Time to be alert and to say prayers for peace for those jurists and the country.

Either way they will still riot.
Which counter weapon to deploy? Water canon, microwave deterrent weapon...voice of God? There's so many good choices.
Sikorsky Black Hawk?
Countdown to mayhem in 5,....4,....3,......2,......
If the knee doesn't fit you must acquit.
That was quick
Too quick.
Almost scripted.
Just in time for the audit.
And rush hour. Couldn’t they wait until tonight when all the sane people are home? Nope, gotta get shit kicked off right when the most people are out driving to get caught in the crossfire.
Time to make popcorn!
Are they hoping everyone will be lighting up at 4:20 on 4/20......might help...
Kek! "Their all a pan of brownies deep drop the verdict now"
Let's hope they get too stoned to do much damage. Just loot for munchies.
Central or Eastern?

I just woke out a dream. It was today's "riots" demonstration starting. I was hanging out at friends house getting ready to leave and go home when I heard automatic gun shots. I thought it was thunder but then the friend said the neighbor upstairs called the police and that it was gun shots. So while I'm looking at the window see this guy dressed in all black tactical gear with an AK 47 fully automatic on a segway riding it with one hand and and holding the gun with the other shooting anyone who was not inside. After I saw a second person get shot I woke up. It was on a backstreet of some suburbany neighborhood that didn't have much drive through traffic.

Doesn't a quick deliberation more often signify a unanimous guilty verdict?

Speaking generally about the length of time a jury deliberation typically takes, Poynter cited a 2009 study titled, "Factors Affecting the Length of Time a Jury Deliberates: Case Characteristics and Jury Composition," in reporting that trials involving crimes against individuals and those pertaining to severe crimes often result in longer deliberation times. **Shorter deliberation times, according to the report, often result in a verdict that is favorable toward the defendant. **
ah... that's very interesting. Counter intuitive to me......
Almost always.
Or not guilty.

Stay frosty frens.
He was found guilty....
I have not followed this trial on any level and I typically ignore these events they use to mold the public. But this feels like a big moment, almost like the OJ verdict. A Not Guilty verdict will likely echo around the country for the rest of Spring in terms of violence. A Guilty verdict I think will result in "celebratory" riots, but it will probably calm down fairly quickly.
Massive riots that won't stop for 6-9 months starting in 3...2...1...and here...we...go!
I'm just going to leave this right here for later:

Good time to be safe and sound away from any major city. Stocked up with various sundries. Food and liquor can be delivered!
GUILTY, hard to believe this happened... I didn't want to be right.
Stay on course Pedes, this is only a diversion tactic! The LIVE broadcast of the AZ audits are only 3 days away!
GUILTY!! Who ya gonna call for riots now????
Not to be negative but how do we know this isn't a Obama planted Jury? And soon as the verdict is announced fake MAGA protesters will starting rioting?
I mean doesn't it seem odd that all this is about to happen when AZ is set to do a LIVE broadcast an audit in three days. Seems to be a little to convenient for me.
Hoping I'm wrong....
