Jury Verdict

Would be declaring a mistrial, and the state could then decide to redo again!

 

You're that upset that a black victim received justice?!? Very telling.

 

I have no personal opinion on whether the verdict might be overturned. However, I did read this online today, showing in general odds aren't great on appeals -- across the US the success rate for appeals is about 10%. (I haven't researched that myself, so for now am taking a journalists word for it.)

 

You ask a very good question. Why would anyone be upset with justice being decided, unless there is an underlying bias involved?
Our brother's may be blind to their bias. We may not be able to remove those scales, but their heavenly Father can remove them as he removed them from Peter and Paul.

I pray that God does a work of redemption in Mr Chauvin's life while he is in jail. Many believers go into jails and share the gospel with inmates (thank you Chuck Colson) where they come to faith. Isolation from others can bring us to God. May this happen for Me Chauvin.
For those who gleefully celebrate over Mr Chauvin and his incarceration, I pray they will look inward and see the same corruption in their own hearts and also repent. There is no cause for joy unless it is the moment when a broken sinner believes in the shed blood of Christ for the payment of their sins and repents of their rebellion against God. At that news...we rejoice greatly as does all of heaven.

 

Now I understand what you mean.

You do not know the heart of those who cheered. But they will tell you why if you look hard enough.

They have already felt sad that the devil got to Chauvin when they watched the video almost a year ago. Many who are Christians likely have already prayed for Chauvin’s soul. The cheer was for a broken justice system taking a step in the right direction.

 

Arrogance would have them believe that they do.

Amen!!!

 

I wonder if you would honestly feel the same way, if Floyd was a white man?

 

then what is?

 

If that's relevant, tell us your prediction of the election of 2016. It's interesting that in your lust for the vengeance against this chauvin, you suddenly pop up like a jack-in-the-box when it's announced.

 

It is according to the legal system in the USA

 

I get what you are saying. However, it is or could be "justice" if we consider the entire range of meaning of the word. For example, one of the meanings of "justice" is "the administration of the law" or "the administering of deserved punishment or reward."
