This shit gives me a headache

 A screenshot of a headline in the Daily Mail yesterday:

  1. Whoever 'wrote' this calls himself a 'journalist'?

    1. His grammar and obvious lack of any type of grasp of the English language is a sure sign of a diversity hire. Also this person was too lazy to use the spell or grammar check.

    2. He was probably wondering what all the red squiggly lines meant, and that distracted him from re-reading his post.

  2. Was waiting for that to happen.

    1. Agree in fact I agree with Deric.. he didn't have a snowball chance.....

  3. They were looking for someone to call guilty. He fit the bill.

  4. Come on man! When you only know how to speak Farsi and can type this up, it's actually not bad.

  5. There should have been no charges, much less conviction. When it came out that he had 3 times the lethal dose in his blood, it should have been obvious.

  6. Move that trial 50 miles in any direction and he is innocent. And he should have hired his own medical examiner since the city was against him. City coroner was worthless.

    1. Did the jury ever get to read the coroner's first report (before political interference)?

      But the cop's big problem in court was that he held the guy down while he died and for several minutes after before allowing any medical attention. No matter what the guy died of, that sure looks like depraved indifference.

  7. I hope he succeeds.

  8. I read Daily Mail regularly and their need for editors is dire.

    1. They could probably hire Mr. Paperclip, if that fucker isn't strung out on meth...

    2. The Guardian was so bad back when the was no Internet, it was called The Grauniad.

  9. Chauvin is guilty. If Chauvin hadn't screwed around for twelve plus minutes giving Floyd a taste of "street justice" and instead put him in the cruiser and took him to jail, Floyd would probably still be alive doing time for one or more of the crimes he would have been charged with.

    I don't give a shit about what the ME wrote in the toxicology report. Floyd was a habitual drug addict. Over time, drug addicts need bigger and bigger doses to get the effect from the drug. The amount of fentanyl in his system probably would have killed a non drug addict, but I question whether it would have killed Floyd absent twelve minutes of Chauvin's "riding" him.

    I'm actually surprised some lifer con hasn't offed Chauvin already. One of them will find a way, eventually.

    1. I can't believe that I did a post about grammar errors in the DM's headlines and y'all start dragging this shit up again.
      No, Floyd wouldn't have spent more than a night or two in jail before the "Justice" system turned him loose again.
      And you'd probably be even more surprised to find out that Chauvin is in protective custody to keep some lifer con from killing him.

    2. Wada maroon. This poor delusional creep has never read the protocols for dealing with a drug overdose. You keep them down so their heart has a chance of pumping blood that it wouldn't if they were upright.

    3. Oh another anti-copper defending the criminal instead of the one arresting him. You people have got to be the dumbest individual ever to walk the earth. And in today's society, that's saying a hell of a lot. What happened to Floyd needs to happen exponentially more than it does now to send a message to criminal that "we're tired of your shit" and there's going to be more than three meals and a cot as a reward to your criminal activity. Vigilante justice. It's coming to a theater near you.

    4. If I remember right the reason Floyd was put on the ground was he refused to cooperate when police tried to put him in the police car. Anyway, Floyd was a real P*S.

      Delete
    5. Yes, this. They put him in the car; he freaked out. They pulled him out, he continued freaking out; They restrained him. & had the ambulance on the way within a minute of restraining him.

    6. What you left out - that the cops wouldn't allow the medics access when they arrived and continued to "restrain him" for several minutes after he died.

  10. It's gone from bad to outright horrifying. The lexical debauchery on the complicated system of pipes tries to suck more oxygen out of our air by the day. Truly. It regularly leaves me wanting a nap really badly.

  11. I 100% agree with the comments about Chauvin getting scapegoated, but this is about the horrible reporting that would have been a shame for a first grader when I was in school.

  12. Floyd was a “Dead Man Walking” even if they had taken him directly to the hospital.

    The amount of drugs gulped down by Floyd so the police wouldn’t get it was lethal regardless of whether or not he was an addict..

    He was complaining that he couldn’t breath and going into respiratory arrest while still sitting in his car.

    Consider that “street justice” appropriate karma for beating up a pregnant woman and holding a pistol to her stomach while robbing her..

    I say good riddance to that POS as a recovering addict with 32 years clean time next week.

  13. The headline wasn't as badly written as Chauvin's trial and sentencing was a miscarriage of justice.
    Sooner or later his appeal is going to reach a 'real' court and he will go free.

  14. DEREK CHAUVIN DID NOTHING WRONG

    ReplyDelete
  15. One thing he did wrong was to have a jury, when I first saw the video on the news my thought was he was trying to save the man, then I found a video of a similar out of Houston where the officer was preforming the same action as he had been trained to do by the department

  16. Daily Mail is a British paper, is it not? I'm actually surprised they screwed the headline up so badly. How was the body of the article?

    1. Oh, the DM is horrible when it comes to improper grammar and spelling errors. I see it all the time there. It's like they're in such a hurry to get the story out, they don't review it first and will check for errors after they put it up instead of before.
      And the rest of the article? I didn't read it but I imagine it was as repetitious as the DM usually is - taking 12 paragraphs to say what could be said in 4.

  17. Hopefully he was a liberal.
