I'm guessing the fact it didn't take too long means he's convicted on at least one of the charges?

Usually quick verdicts favour the defendant. I think it's the opposite this time. It's difficult to imagine that there wouldn't be at least one juror who would go against acquittal this early on given the emotional component of the case. While I was originally anticipating a hung jury, if I had to place money on the table right now it would be for a maximum guilty verdict.
 
Would that be better or worse than placing on an all black cell block in prison?

His ass will look like the Holland Tunnel by the time they've finished taking turns with him.

Having a democratically elected state do it would be worse, yes. Whatever the state does, they are doing on our behalf, which means their behavior reflects on us.

Not on board for eye for an eye, sorry.

I don't even support the death penalty for that matter.
 
Gotta love how regardless of what this verdict is, we all know riots are happening.

It's like back in college for a big football game - win or lose, we booze!

So riots over a sportsball game are acceptable to you (or otherwise don't phase you), but systemic racism and social injustice are a problem?
