For those who don't know, he painted a giant dick on her memorial. She was raped and murdered walking home at night.



And when we say "giant dick" we mean a 25m long penis that took 45 litres of paint to make, and he did it immediately before the planned community candlelight vigil.


He's also a crazy Scientology blogger fwiw, but even the local Church of Scientology put out a statement distancing themselves from him

Dunno where you heard that from, but that is not true. Chauvin might have killed one other person (he was one of several cops around when man with a shotgun was killed).

Yeah, my bad for trusting some random posters in the riot thread.

From what I've been able to find out - from actual press and official sources:


quote:

From official PDF linked from Mint Press News




From the Star Tribune

quote:

In 2008, Chauvin shot and wounded Ira Latrell Toles during a domestic assault call. According to a 2011 article from the Pioneer Press, Chauvin and other officers showed up to an apartment in south Minneapolis just before 2 a.m. Toles grabbed for an officer’s gun and Chauvin shot him in the abdomen.

In 2006, Chauvin and five others responded to a stabbing. After Wayne Reyes, 42, allegedly pulled a shotgun on the officers, one of the officers shot and killed Reyes, according to a report titled “Stolen Lives” from Communities United Against Police Brutality, a police watchdog nonprofit based in Minneapolis.

Which gives us, two innocent people killed in the crossfire, one killed when he "went for a cop's gun" and one who allegedly pulled a shotgun.

So, two people killed directly and two indirectly.

Plus the "litany of complaints against him".

The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. We live on a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was not meant that we should voyage far.

I'll give them a mulligan on the dude who stabbed two people. Not the others, though.

The one who "went for his gun" survived. That said, the cop's still a monster who belongs in jail.

Uh, a quick look seems to indicate that person is a gamergater "journalist" who wrote for CHUD websites like The Daily Caller and now works for RT. I'm not sure she is any sort of reliable source.

Yeahs she sounds kind've lovely, just going by her comments on her videos today

But the footage she got of the cops fleeing the precinct building is important on its own

Along with that message, nobody can Like, retweet, or reply to the original Tweet now, and that's honestly more than I was expecting from Twitter. Plus this way people can still see his lovely post.

Until about an hour ago, CNN's livefeed of Minneapolis was of a knocked-over camera looking at the sky. This is because the reporter crew were arrested live as they were reporting.

CNN then went full on ACAB.
"They arrested the black reporter but the white one is still around."
"this was a racist arrest"
"We demand the release of the reporters"

all in like ten minutes.

I can barely find it, CNN doesn't like allowing me to watch their free streaming news or clips. Odds are it was at any point for the past

two? two hours that the camera has been transmitting live.

The cops arrested the reporters and the camera kept rolling. and they then carried it to the paddy wagon.
