and yet you decide to do it anyway

I have no sympathy for the grand jurors. If their homes or businesses get burnt down that is pretty much darwinism, full stop.

Don't blame the grand jury. Blame the prosecutor.

Grand juries are just rubber stamps for whatever a prosecutor wants. If they want one, a halfway competent prosecutor could get an indictment against a sandwich, to paraphrase Sol Wachtler.

All the more reason for the grand jury to indict, considering they know that if they don't their city is going to burn.

I don't feel bad for them.

Because maybe (it could be incorrect) it isn't the "wrong" decision. You are basing right and wrong on people's emotions and not facts applied to law.

That is not how jurors are supposed to deliberate or how the court system in general is supposed to operate. I mean youre implying they should render their verdict according to the pressure theyre feeling from outside sources.

The cops murdered Breonna Taylor. Protecting your city from being burnt down is just all the more reason to make the right decision.

What do you mean Duncan? The people of Louisville collectively decided they wanted their homes and businesses burnt down. They literally decided that by not doing the right thing.

You have to respect their decision to wanting their property destroyed just as we're expected to respect the court's decision to not indict.

Shut up. No one decided to give arsonists and murderers free reign to destroy their city. That's all on the rioters.

They probably made the decision on purpose hoping a riot starts so they can keep using that "THEY'RE BURNING DOWN ENTIRE CITIES" argument

Only this time the "entire city" will likely be much more than a few blocks of damaged buildings

Also if it was just people with signs going around it would be fine. But topics on this board are heavily pointing to more arson and murder.

So what do you suggest people do when peaceful protesting is ignored. When minorities are murdered and the only crime the murderers get is shooting into someone else's home? Would you have stood to those who rose up against England and told those rebelling to stop, in America's "founding"

Couple this with the fact that Trump supporters were given free reign to not wear masks, spit in officers faces, and storm capitol buildings with assault rifles. The definition of terrorism literally includes intimidation to invoke political change. The cops decide to intimidate based off their political beliefs.

Factually, the cops are terrorists.

According to the actual law it seems like they didn't murder her based on the verdict.

It's a humanitarian issue co-opted by people who dont give two craps about the cause and used it as an excuse to burn down homes and business, and then murder the people who try to stop them. The cause is good dont get me wrong. But committing multiple felonies in this way makes you no better than the cops.

What's that saying? Two wrongs dont make a right?

Shut the fuck up Duncan. Please don't ever begin to pretend that you care about "the cause" beyond using it as an excuse to post inane shit like this from the comfort of your parents' house.
