Look at this garbage analysis from CNN:

The conviction of Derek Chauvin showed George Floyd's life really did matter to a justice system on trial.

Now, millions of Americans wait to see whether a moment of rare hope will spur political leaders to deliver similar justice by reforming policing and eradicating systemic racism.

lol wat?

How are we supposed to "eradicate systemic racism"? What would that look like? What steps would be taken in order to accomplish this? What changes in current police protocols would be made?

This article offers none of these answers, but simply rants about how this moment is just the beginning in the fight to eradicate systemic police racism.

Keep in mind that it was NEVER proven or even reasonably established that Chauvin had a racial motive. I think it's highly likely that Chauvin would have behaved the exact same way with a difficult, large white suspect. There are no credible studies on police brutality which suggest that black people are brutalized more often than white people, if you look at the type of police contact and the percentage of those where brutality is alleged.

I'm afraid that "eliminating systemic racism" will be similar to what we're currently seeing in southern California -- elimination of cash bail, a stated policy by the DA not to charge people for minor or moderate crimes, and police not being able to do their job when a violent suspect attacks them (see Blake, Jacob).

Chauvin was definitely guilty of something (though probably not murder), and I'm not crying for him. However, LOL @ the left and their false narrative that racist police are a huge threat to black people, when in reality a very high percentage of violence against black people comes from within the black community itself.
