You mean why was Noor not charged with violating civil rights? Hmmm.
Yes, that's exactly what I mean. White people have civil rights too, you know.
Do you have any evidence that Noor's acts were related to the race of his victim or is this just another pathetic "whataboutism"?
There you go again - Mr. Floyd was innocent of any crime at the time until proven guilty.
This is pure sophistry. Obviously nobody is convicted of a crime in question at the time of police interaction itself. That does not mean Floyd was innocent in the same sense Damond was. He was still a suspect being placed into custody. Damond called 911. A very big difference.
You are a practicing expert in sophistry, so I'll take your observation seriously. A suspect (even a black man) is still innocent until proven guilty e
BTW were you aware that the governor of the Texas is considering giving Mr. Floyd a posthumous pardon based on the well-documented evidence that his arresting officer was a habitual liar?
You have no evidence to support your wildass claims about race and religion influence in these cases or Black Muslim privilege in Minnesota.
The attorney general is a black Muslim with ties to Nation of Islam.
Do you have a point besides confusing correlation with causation?
At the same time he is very aggressive against white cops (he personally overrode the local DA and upgraded charges against Potter) but far less aggressive against Noor.
On what actual evidence to base this far less aggressiveness against Noor? Mr. Noor was charged with 2nd degree intentional murder, 3rd degree murder, and second-degree manslaughter. What do you know that the prosecutor's did not that allows you to come up with other unspecified charges?
Your imagination about counterfactual events is not relevant to a discussion about real events.
Thinking about what would happen if circumstances (race, religion) were different is very much relevant to questions about bias.
It is to your bias. But your imaginary counterfactuals are not necessarily manifestations of what might happen.
As usual, you missed the point.
No. You have. As usual.
That is truly impressive spin. The Noor events and the Chauvin events are vastly different.
Yes. Floyd was a suspect. Damond was not. Floyd's overdose and ill health played a role in his death. No such contributing circumstances were present with Damond.
Unfortunately, your opinion is not confirmed by the facts or testimony.
Noor was a relative rookie officer and he made a split second mistake (like Potter).
Big difference with Potter is that she was right to go for a taser while Noor had no grounds to pull any weapon at Damond.
But Ms. Potter did not get her taser -she got her gun and fired it. Neither Ms. Potter nor Mr Noor had any grounds to fire their gun - as any sophistry expert would know.
Once Noor fired his weapon there was nothing he could to do. On the otherhand, Chauvin was a veteran officer who made an 8 minute plus mistake and who could have stopped at any time but refused to, even when the victim and bystanders pleaded for him to ease up.
I am not saying Chauvin did nothing wrong. But that he has to serve 25 years while Noor will be out in 5 is sickening.
I think it is sickening that Mr. Chauvin could be out in 25 years given the brutality and cruelty of his actions. I think it is a travesty for Mr. Noor to be out after 5 years, but that is due to the legitimate application of the governing laws of the state of Minnesota, not Mr. Noor's race or religion (as you persistently and wrongly claim).
