I believe he did kill Floyd, and that he did it intentionally. With that said, I also believe the entire nation has paid the price for him for the last year, and Chauvin should have walked free due to that. Floyd's life was not worth the billions in damages and decent lives lost that it has been used as an excuse to create.
It sets a bad precedent to give in to the demands of terrorists.

Well, I actually disagree with you alot on this one.
I disagree that he intentionally killed him, but that's actually not my issue with your post.
I find that if you were on the jury and thought he was guilty, but voted non guilty because of what OTHERS did(granted it was bad).
That's just as bad as being on the jury, thinking he was not guilty and voting guilty because you are scared of future riots.
Neither of those uphold the standard of a fair justice system.
