Do you think it’s possible that the established Jewry among the financiers caused the Great War as well as German defeat? Not asking if you think anything should be done about it, just if it’s possible and/or likely?
Chauvin Found Guilty of All Charges

If nothing changes, probably not possible. If a juror comes forward and says they convicted because they heard a politician was planning on burning their city down if they didn't convict, then it absolutely is possible.
Ignore Revnak.
Unlikely. Without a solid instance of misconduct or procedural issues within the trial to base it on, declaring a mistrial on the grounds of "the jurors could possibly have been affected by public opinion" reads too much like trying to get a mulligan on the trial because it didn't have the outcome they wanted.
I'm not sure how you're getting to this point? Like the abuse from and failure to hold accountable local and state police forces doesn't lend itself to the dissolution of the Federal Government. I mean the two aren't related at all. The Federal Police, the FBI, weren't the ones who killed Floyd nor where they on trial.
This is local people not trusting local police. Breaking the nation up into 50 nation states War of the Roses style doesn't change that or even address any of the issues.
Its like having a kid cheat playing football on the playground, so lets close the Olympics.
I mean a real change would be something like no Ex-military in the police force with the exception of SWAT which should be a separate branch, police chiefs should be elected officials, no more military ranks ie Sergeant, Lieutenant, Captain, just call them Constable rank 1-whatever, expand recruitment to include therapists, sociologists and counselors, no police testimony without body camera footage, and this one I hear on a podcast and I'm still mulling it over but open up civil laws to allow shooting victims to sue the gun manufacturers as it'll cause a crackdown real quick.
Those are a little more practical than dissolving the US.
Anti-Catholicism was definatly a thing at/before the time. The Know-Nothing Party was notable Anti-catholic(and disliked Germans and the Irish because of their Catholicism). The rest of it I think is to reflect Moon being a hateful conspiracy bigot which would make him notably welcome in Qanon.
Talk about side stepping and avoiding the issue like a zombie plague. You never want to learn nor understand. You rather go off at the camp fantasyland and talk about an outcome no one else was asking for. Or one that is certainly impossible. We call that goal posting and avoiding the issue without solving anything or have a meaningful discussion.
I remember that scene. My brother was playing the zombie expansion. We
our asses off so hard.
Yeah, if it's convenient. You better start looking at more than just one angle or the angle you feel is most comfortable when it comes to history. You have to do way more than what things from a "historical perspective". Those tangents lead nowhere and try to take away from the main issue.
Did you watch The Double toasted video I posted on thidy thread? A simple yes or no. If you did not, I highly suggest you and @Hawki do.
You both no longer have any excuses. So save it.

Even if he doesn't watch videos and see your point of view, I'm struggling to think of a time in history where the dissolution of the Government over local abuse ended up helping. I guess maybe the Soviet Union, although the old Soviet states are just as corrupt and abusive under the guise of constitutional democracies as they were as soviet block states.
The Roman colonies didn't benefit from the Fall, Greek nation states collapsing didn't help locals. The collapse of Spanish colonies in South America just led to centuries of bloody civil war as local warlords took control of or destroyed villages and towns as they saw fit. Mexico is an all but failed state where drug lords and the Mafia has control over entire states and the Government has all but given up.
Except when they convince rape victims not to bother with pressing charges.
You know, regardless of the complexity the article makes it hard not to imagine the cops just firing in all directions like Yosemite Sam. He shot her 4 times from like a meter away...like dude, calm the fuck down. You literally coulda just grabbed her or stepped between them.My city.

Haha, no you don't. You make allusions to history while maintaining a contrarian position. You have conclusions and look for historical precedent to support them.
There are 3 views of Cops, how Cops view themselves, how Cops want civilians to view them and how Civilians actually view them.
As far as Cops are concerned they're all fucking John McClaine ready and waiting for a squad of ethnic terrorists to attack and they're gonna get their assault rifles and have a 10min shootout in the streets, totally unaware how much ammo that would expend and how many stray bullets need to be accounted for.
As far as Cops want us to be concerned, they're Sheriff Andy Taylor, calm, respected and wise black and white White guy from a down home country town with no more problems than ol' man Gregerson's prized cow got loose, and everything is peaceful and slightly wacky.
And as far as civilians are concerned the cops are from South Park; bumbling idiots who can't tell the difference between a right and left hand, and actively shoot at black people and go on strike when the government takes their tanks and flamethrowers away.
There’s others worth debating here (particularly South America, their issues are more Monroe Doctrine than self-inflicted and the comparative prosperity of the 19th century attests to that), but this Rome one is transparently false. Diet quality, height, likelihood of dying violently, lifespan, and I think even child mortality all improved after the fall of the Roman Empire. Rome sucked ass to live under, it just looked nice to be powerful in.
Pre-schism so I don’t think the modern Catholic Church can take full credit, but yeah, the Church as the unifying apparatus of society rather than steel and bribery was a huge improvement.
Thank you for the history lesson, but something is better than just sitting around putting your thumbs doing nothing. I'm not asking for to take out all forms of corruption. I'm just asking to put people in place that actually give a crap about what they're doing. No more of this frat boy crap and the with us against this attitude. People are people. Civilians should not be treated as live stocks or less than insects.
