Anyone Been Watching The Derek Chauvin Trial?

[Spicerack]

I presume we're allowed to talk about it as it's all live-streamed on US tv.

The second, and no- asking for clarification for something you've posted, is very different from assuming I know what you meant and going with that. I've already had that from someone else here. Asking is asking.

and yet here you are saying that George Floyd deserved to die because of the bad things that he has done - a line you dismissed as 'ridiculous' earlier.

Unless of course there is something else about him which makes you think he deserved death other than his behaviour?

'and yet here you are saying that George Floyd deserved to die because of the bad things that he has done - a line you dismissed as 'ridiculous' earlier.'

I said it was ridiculous to say people NECESARILLY deserved to die, Untitled. Again....do you see the subtle difference?

[Untitled]

If you're comfortable admitting you're a psychopath then that's that.... but I don't really see any reason to listen to a psychopath on whether or not another human being deserves to live or not.

George Floyd was a human being and did not deserve to be killed - accidentally or otherwise - in the street. That's my radical wacky looney-lefty position...

I've no opinion on Chauvin's guilt before anyone asks... will await the verdict.

[Zacs-Master]

Apologies, Pix that was Untitled.

[Zacs-Master]

'Unless of course there is something else about him which makes you think he deserved death other than his behaviour?'

And what would that be, Untitled?

[Untitled]

I don't think it makes much of a difference Zacs. You certainly think Floyd deserves to die because he was a bad person. All the reasons that position is "ridiculous" are just as true if you insert the word "necessarily."

[Untitled]

His race?

[Zacs-Master]

' I don't really see any reason to listen to a psychopath on whether or not another human being deserves to live or not'

You've spent quite some time doing it!

[pixie374]

Zacs, misinterpretation isn't a question (see naomi on this). For future reference, if I ask a question and put a question mark- it is a question, and I am genuinely interested in the answer. I'm quite straightforward.

[Zacs-Master]

So you now think I'm a racist psychopath?

[Untitled]

Just while I'm making dinner!

[Untitled]

I don't know Zacs. Is his race a factor for you? I wouldn't normally think to ask but as you've already indicated you don't see him as properly human it seems worth asking.

[Zacs-Master]

I think you think you're straightforward, Pix when in fact you're intimating things which people (well, me and Naomi at least) have not even suggested.

[Peter Pedant]

there is an awful lot of scratching and biting on this thread

little children can you not play together nicely?

[naomi24]

Pixie, see Naomi for what?

[Peter Pedant]

yeah I agree ! see Naomi ...

[Zacs-Master]

You're at it now, Untitled. Because I believe the world to be a better place without him, that's because he's black?

Where have I even hinted at that? It's deeply offensive and completely wrong. Any chance on an apology?

[pixie374]

No worries, zacs. Nobody on the thread is a psychopath. It would have been obvious well before now.
Untitled, I'm not even sure it's related to race. Chauvin's other victims, were they all black? I suspect he was just a bully.

Zacs, if you "interpret" something I haven't directly said, it's you. I'm too autistic for hints and underhand suggestions x
