Elon Musk reposted a video from conservative commentator Ben Shapiro calling for President Donald Trump to pardon the federal conviction of former Minneapolis officer Derek Chauvin in the killing of George Floyd.

a federal pardon would simply transfer Chauvin to a state prison in Minnesota and I feel pretty confident he would chew his own arms off to stop that from happening
oh hai fed
This would lead to martial law after we protested. I pray for karma on this simple fool.
Better fucking NOT!! He is a cold blooded murderer!
Thank goodness for the state conviction . . . (Which also shows Shapiro’s ignorance)
Trying to trigger Black people to protest so they can give orders to have police shoot us down in the streets like dogs while MAGA cheers. DONT TAKE THE BAIT!
Just the sort of incitement used by Hitler.
how many metaphorical powder kegs are they trying to line up in the middle of a conflagration
😡😡😡😡
Is this the KKK or what?!!?!
F**K. Do you want to burn Minneapolis again?
Apartheid musk
This is sickening. But fits their plans so well….
Prison is the safest place for this guy, lets be honest
Neat. Then he gets to start serving his state conviction. Musk is so bloody stupid.
This would only cover the federal civil rights conviction. The state convictions of murder and manslaughter would still stand and he would still have to serve that sentence. (Unless Minnesota’s next governor is a Republican who would be more likely to issue a state pardon.)
A Republican governor in MN would first require the MN GOP to act normal for one election entire cycle, so personally I’m not worried about that as a possibility
Highly unlikely Tim Walz will let that go.
There’s no way Walz would pardon him on the state convictions
Feminista Jones/ Professor Michelle Taylor cautions people to be safe. Don’t gather in streets if Trump has Derek Chauvin released early. She speaks about possible developments in George Floyd case. Fears for Black protesters’ safety. “Don’t fall into the trap.” 🆘🙏🏽❤️🩹 www.patreon.com/posts/123744...
FAFO
If the State of Minnesota were savvy about justice, they’d make an arrangement with NY to jail him at Rikers Island.
Dick.
How low can it get? Really? I’m afraid we’ll find out.
😮🤨 what the🤬🤬
Oh boy. If you thought the riots were wild the first time...
I don’t think Chauvin being sent to a state prison for 22 years is going to cause a riot.
And then Trump can declare martial law….
Yeah that feels like a dare.
Last time the bars were closed and a bunch of f heads from outstate drove in to cause trouble.
Probably wouldn't be riots. He was convicted by the state so even if pardoned he's just immediately start serving 22 years in a state prison here.
Correct. Chauvin would much prefer a federal prison. At least until Elmo cuts all the guards.
☝️this.
What the actual fuck
Careful of not falling into the trap. Releasing someone like him is bait to start protests where Trump and Musk will insert the violence, blaming the peaceful protesters. This allows them to impose martial law, giving them reason to ignore 1st ammendment. Next will be the 2nd.
The thought of this makes me nauseous.
Our current Supreme Court justices even rejected this murderer’s appeal
Send his ass to Stillwater!

Hell no.
I really love the contrarian attitude they took when the rest of us started whining for once. Suddenly the video that felt like half an hour became a topic for debate.
He better not!!!
Please be fake news.
I was wondering when this would come up. I blame the MN GOP, Bob Kroll and Jon Justice.
I would say this guy is much safer in gaol.
Great. Derek can spend the balance of his sentence in a state prison (where he'll be treated like a piñata at a May 5th parade). Right now he's in a low security prison, which is a lot nicer than Stillwater.
Right you are.
