GUILTY! Derek Chauvin was convicted for the murder of George Floyd because the people of Minneapolis rose up and burned down the 3rd Precinct, because workers everywhere took to the streets and fought back against the racist cops. 

Never forget it's because the people fought the system, not because the system "works."

'No sympathy' for Chauvin, say those who had run-ins before Floyd

For some of those who encountered Derek Chauvin's policing or witnessed his use of force as an officer there is no sympathy for the man convicted of killing George Floyd

Chauvin was the subject of at least 17 complaints during his career, according to police records, but only one led to discipline. Prosecutors sought permission to introduce eight prior use-of-force incidents, but the judge would only allow two. In the end the jury heard none.   

"I don't have no sympathy for him. I think he got what he deserved," Julian Hernandez, 38, a carpenter now working in Pennsylvania, told Reuters.   Hernandez said he never heard anything from the Minneapolis police after submitting a complaint about Chauvin, who he said "choked him out" during an encounter in a Minneapolis night club in 2015. A spokesman for the Minneapolis Police Department declined to comment. 

In 2019, there were 697,195 full-time Derek Chauvins -- police officers -- employed in the United States.

After Chauvin verdict: No letup in the fight against police terror!

By Russ Mack

This sort of state-sanctioned lynching is nothing new. Black people have been hunted down and killed in this country since its inception. That’s why we have been fighting to demand justice and put an end to racist police violence and murder for so long.

Chauvin may be behind bars, but he has yet to be sentenced. It is imperative that the charges stick, and that he gets the maximum possible sentence for lynching George Floyd.

We will continue to fight for all lives that are taken and endangered so cruelly.
