Re: Chauvin Verdict
I've a few times mentioned how powerful and persuasive was the testimony of Dr. Tobin (pulmonologist). Vinny Juror says medical expert convinced her of Chauvin's guilt CNN.com - Top Stories / 2021-04-22 15:20 (CNN)An alternate juror in Derek Chauvin's trial told reporters Thursday that Dr. Martin To...

Re: Chauvin Verdict
Of those 1,100 people killed the police were only found guilty of killing 11. That gives them a 99% non-guilty rate. Does that seem reasonable? I'm not saying yes or no myself here, except that it strikes me as a high rate. The police have strong unions with well-paid shyster lawyers and are able t...

Re: Chauvin Verdict
Given that glennds pointed out the MN legal test for murder is "substantial causal factor", it's interesting to consider some other ways in which the scenario could have played out. I think one of the expert witnesses testified that Chauvin would have been justified in using a taser on Fl...

Re: Chauvin Verdict
Splitting hairs was probably the wrong wording. What I am still trying to say is I don't care if he was on drugs. I don't care if he just gave a counterfeit $20 bill. Nothing that he did during that day justified him being dead. And if I was a juror on that case, the proximate/main/biggest probable...

Re: Chauvin Verdict
I have no way of gauging the probabilities involved, but if it's true that Floyd had enough fentanyl in his system to kill at least one man, I have a really hard time not acknowledging that as reasonable doubt that Chauvin murdered Floyd. And in a criminal trial, reasonable doubt means you're suppo...

Re: Chauvin Verdict
Floyd had fentanyl in his system -- supposedly a lot of it -- and fentanyl is known to be dangerous for often making people stop breathing if they take too much of it. I seem to recall one toxicology report showed that Floyd had enough fentanyl in his system to kill three men. (Fact-check?) I also ...

Re: Chauvin Verdict
I still haven't heard any convincing argument that Chauvin was not guilty, regardless of the how the trial proceeded and whether it was a foregone conclusion. Is there anyone here who really thinks he was not the immediate direct cause of Floyd's death? In a criminal trial, the burden of proof is o...

Re: Why isn't gold moving?
“Jumping from the frying pan and into the fire” comes to mind when considering a switch from LTT to stocks. Perhaps consider shortening duration and choosing something in the 5-7 or 7-10 year range. Inflation is not guaranteed and printing certainly hasn’t resulted in much over the last 13 years. I...

Re: Chauvin Verdict
In regards to reasonable doubt, if the Dream Team could convince a jury that there was reasonable doubt in the O.J. Simpson case then surely some good defense lawyers could have done it in this one. This case actually gave me a flashback to that one. Same level of interest and suspense at the end w...

Re: Chauvin Verdict
I ask because as a layperson, I have the impression that the jury's job here is tougher than many people think. Some of the legal analysis, going both ways, has been very interesting.

I can tell you that, no sickness involved, when I had to lay off the weights for a couple of weeks due to various injuries, it takes a long time to get back to where you were before. That's why I do not exercise purposefully! I do it (bike riding mainly) for enjoyment. My wife works out religiously...

The person who does my snow plowing also is a carpenter.
He told me that there is an enormous amount of work out there for contractors.
People have a lot of money to spend and some bookings for the work are a year out.

I don’t think the establishment is ready to o...
