Andrea del Sarto, The Sacrifice of Isaac, 1527.
1,545 words
Officer Derek Chauvin was found guilty on all counts for the “murder” of the beatified George Floyd. The jury, consisting of only two white men among twelve, found him guilty within a matter of hours. It was a quick decision that sent a clear message to America: black lives matter more than yours.
Despite being denounced by nearly every law enforcement official in the country, Derek Chauvin is the face of American police. Despite him marrying an Asian refugee, he’s also a symbol of White America. All the alleged sins of police and whites were laid on his shoulders for him to suffer for. We all killed the innocent gentle giant George Floyd, who just wanted to breathe.
Chauvin may not be the ideal white man nor the perfect cop. But his trial was a trial for all of us and we were found guilty. If America did not worship blacks and hate whites, he would never have been convicted. If America had a serious legal system, he would not have been convicted. If America didn’t fear mob violence over a “wrong” verdict, he would not have been convicted. The case is obviously bigger than one cop putting his knee on a black man. It now empowers the system to put a knee on the neck of white America.
The prosecution’s arguments for conviction were beyond idiotic. In concluding arguments, a white prosecutor argued that Floyd’s crime of forgery wasn’t a real crime, his drug abuse was merely a personal issue, and he was right to resist arrest because he felt the squad car was too small. His claims of claustrophobia should’ve been treated seriously, setting a precedent for every criminal to resist arrest on the same grounds. The prosecution essentially argued that Floyd should’ve never been arrested for committing a crime, doing meth is okay, and police should just let unruly suspects who claim dubious medical conditions go free. The prosecution even argued that Floyd’s severe heart problems and massive drug ingestion played no role in his death. The only fatal object was Chauvin’s knee.
The last prosecution argument, delivered by a black lawyer, was the cherry on top. “You were told, for example, that Mr. Floyd died because his heart was too big. You heard that testimony,” special prosecutor Jerry Blackwell said. “Now having seen all the evidence, having heard all the evidence, you know the truth. And the truth of the matter is — that the reason George Floyd is dead is because Mr. Chauvin’s heart was too small.”
Derek Chauvin was guilty of being the Grinch.
These silly arguments worked as Chauvin was convicted of two counts of murders and one of manslaughter. . . for the death of one person. According to our legal system, Chauvin both purposefully and accidentally killed Floyd. That makes absolutely no sense unless you’re a system bootlicker. But it’s the same for whites. We’re both intentionally and unintentionally racist and condemned to penance for eternity. Our intentions don’t matter — only our skin color does.
The defense team made ample work of Floyd’s background — to no avail. They were able to show he was sitting in his car with his drug dealer before his arrest. (The drug dealer was able to escape testifying.) They found evidence Floyd nearly had a stroke in 2019 when he ingested too many drugs right before an arrest. They were not able to focus on his past criminal background, such as him robbing a pregnant woman and putting a gun to her stomach.
You can buy Greg Johnson’s White Identity Politics here.
But Floyd’s criminal side won’t be remembered. He will be remembered as a big-hearted gentle giant who wanted to be a Supreme Court justice and was trying to turn his life around. He will be remembered as a great father, even though he barely knew any of his kids. He certainly didn’t take care of them. But he, a life-long criminal and drug abuser, is more valuable than any cop. Schools, streets, and maybe even military facilities will be named after him. He’s a modern-day Emmett Till, and you will have to kneel before his statues.
Chauvin will forever be a monster. He represents American white supremacy stretching back to slavery and lynchings. He will stand alongside Bull Connor and the Ku Klux Klan. He’s the face of “systemic racism” and every other imaginary problem in this country. His actions will justify a veritable revolution within our nation.
The revolution will come from above. President Biden said the verdict was a step forward, but more must be done to eradicate systemic racism. He said George Floyd’s “I can’t breathe” should motivate the nation to do everything Black Lives Matter wants. The Department of Justice announced the day after the verdict that it would launch a thorough investigation of the Minneapolis Police Department to assess them for racism. This is despite the police department fully cooperating with the trial and its officials testifying against Chauvin. There’s no reward for collaboration.
The House of Representatives passed the “George Floyd Justice in Policing Act” earlier this year, but it remains stalled in the Senate. The bill would neuter police and turn them into glorified social workers. Many police takedown techniques would be banned. “Racial profiling” would be banned. And criminals would be able to sue officers with the elimination of qualified immunity. It would also put local police departments under greater oversight by federal bureaucrats through a national registry of “police misconduct.” Biden supports the bill, and some Republicans may back it to make it become law. Lawlessness would follow.
There’s also now the added effect of the public seeing every police shooting of a non-white as a lynching. This is evidenced by three shootings in recent days. In a Minneapolis suburb, blacks threw a fit after a man resisted arrest and was accidentally shot. The man, Daunte Wright, had a warrant out for aggravated robbery. In Chicago, protesters marched after a 13-year-old gang member was shot by police after he pulled out a gun.
In the most ridiculous case, politicians, entertainers, and media outlets are demanding “justice” for Ma’Khia Bryant. She was fatally shot by police after she swung a knife at another black girl. Several influential people now argue cops should not respond to knife fights in the wake of this shooting. LeBron James, the most powerful athlete in America, tweeted that the police officer who shot Bryant is “next.” The new standard post-Floyd is we should tolerate all manners of black criminality. Just let the blacks stab and rob in peace.
The Ma’Khia Byrant shooting is obviously justified. If it occurred five years ago, the story would’ve died within minutes of the body cam footage’s release. Even liberal commentators would’ve accepted it as a warranted police action. But now the White House and other powerful forces want justice, and justice does not mean siding with the police.
In the new America, law enforcement’s only role is to police whites and enforce social distancing. “To protect and to serve the ruling caste and their favorite pets” is the new motto.
It’s understandable for Right-wingers to hate the police. They are the ones who will shut down our rallies and arrest dissidents for trumped-up charges. They do serve the corrupt system. But most of what they do is good. They are the thin blue line against chaos and criminality. They are the lone force holding back the massive tide coming for white Americans. Many cops are Right-wing themselves and hold dissident views. They spend most of their time arresting black criminals, not white dissidents.
But now they’re not even allowed to provide that good service.
Out of all the institutions, the police are the ones most like white America. They want to maintain order and stable communities. They believe in the rule of law and following the law. But, like many whites, they’re part of a system that is inherently opposed to these things. They’re trapped between the law and their own common sense. The new law tells them to impose anarcho-tyranny, but their common sense knows this undermines order. Some never resolve the tension and continue doing the job. Others leave the force, knowing it’s stupid to continue serving a system that hates them.
That’s why we are all Derek Chauvin. We all face persecution for doing our job and trying to preserve basic norms. He stands as a symbol of our plight. He is a political prisoner of the anti-white regime. We won’t win until people like him are free and police are once again the protectors of our community, not oppressors of the Right or punching bags for the Left.
Whether we like it or not, we are Derek Chauvin.

I think there is a useful distinction to be made between a “peace force” and a “police force”.
A peace force would have the objective of maintaining the peace between the people.
A police force would have the objective of enforcing the dictates of the State on the people.
A society would need both (or neither) depending on the relative cohesion between the people and the legitimacy of the State in the eyes of the people.
For example, a highly cohesive people would have little to no use for a peace force as they would be able to solve disputes amongst themselves through various channels (social censure, ostracism, duels, etc.). A State with a high degree of legitimacy among its people would have little need to enforce it’s rules on a day-to-day basis as most people would willingly comply.
America’s police function as both a peace and a police force and are moving towards the extreme in both capacities as the social fabric of the nation is torn apart and as the State loses legitimacy in the eyes of the population (e.g. those in culturally-enriched inner cities).
This puts the police in a bind as they are often times torn between protecting the people from each other and enforcing the will of the State.
As the Centre continues to polarize and fracture, so to will the objectives of the police.
The current paradigm puts us all in a “damned if we do and damned if we don’t” scenario. A white man with socially conservative views would be a complete fool to work in law enforcement in this environment. Yet, The prospects of “white flight” from the law enforcement field places us in the unfortunate position of being policed by *enthusiastic* bootlickers and unsympathetic negro cops. It’s very much a “Turner Diary” scenario that only serves to further tighten the noose around the white man’s neck.
Avoid contact with blacks at all cost. That’s the bottom line.
PULMONARY EDEMA — lungs filled with fluid. This is the real cause of George Floyd’s death. Pulmonary edema is an expected consequence of an opioid overdose; it is the reason that heroin addicts die of pneumonia. The 24-minute George Parry video effectively shows what happened before George Floyd was put on the ground. Floyd is in “excited delirium”, hysterically thrashing around and resisting orders of the cops. Floyd keeps crying over and over: “I can’t breathe! … I’m gonna die! … I can’t breathe!” Floyd could not breathe because his lungs were filling with fluid. He was indeed a dying man, well before he (at his own request) was placed on the ground.
The toxicology report showed that Floyd’s body had over three times a lethal dose of fentanyl. Dr. Andrew Baker, who performed the autopsy, said that Floyd’s lungs were over three times their normal weight because they were filled with fluid. Dr. Baker said that if Floyd’s death had occurred under any other circumstances it would be ruled a drug overdose. (Officlai Memorandum, “Notes from conversations with Dr. Andrew Baker, Chief Hennepin County Medical Examiner”, written by Amy Sweasy.)
So, floyd died from pulmonary edema caused by a fentanyl overdose. And there were other aggravating factors: his very severe heart problems and the stress of the circumstances, which resulted from his non-compliance with the orders of the cops.
After this verdict any White police officer that still works in these major cities is a willing participant in this system. It doesn’t take much to find a policing job in a smaller less culturally enriched city or county.
The fact of the matter is that they’re there for the paycheck. So they take orders from liberal mayors that are inherently hostile to Whites. They deserve no sympathy or “backing of the blue” from anyone.
anybody like this idiot writer who thinks cops stand between and genocide from the blacks is a suicidal coward thumb sucking bed wetter. truth is cops keep guys from killing the blacks. I would like to see BLM and the cops eliminate each other. it would be paradise without those two tax parasite gangs
I’d think you would reconsider insulting the author if you took a few minutes to skim through some of his other work here: https://counter-currents.com/author/rhampton/
It’s easy to insult, any jogger can do that. Thoughtful disagreement is another story. Perhaps you could try it out?
Bless you for using the proper jogging terminology
I know a few inner city cops, some retired. Through various independent conversations, they’ve all shared that they only put up with the BS that comes down from liberal city leadership because it gives them an excuse to do less policing and still collect the same paycheck.
In my city, running red lights or dealing drugs in front of a cop won’t even get a response from them. “Too risky to engage.” They’ve admitted to me in conversations that the police force as a whole doesn’t want to risk their lives and pensions to maintain order. Even if they do their jobs correctly, 100% by the book, they know they’ll still face the blowback of a click-bait media eager to destroy their lives and a city leadership that will throw them to those wolves with a smile. So around here, the only crimes they put any effort towards solving are murders or the occasional theft (if the victim is affluent or has connections).
Any decent cop that actually wants to do their job is essentially castrated from the start by the liberal leadership. So we end up with lazy, blob cops who just clock in to do nothing and get paid.
No. We aren’t. Wake up, man. Chauvin and every other LEO are enforcers of what are obviously enemy states at this point. They’re loyal to their pensions and paychecks and couldn’t care less about the oaths of service they took. Seeing the system eat their own to satisfy the whims of yet another enemy faction (BLM) is perfectly fine with me.
I do not think it is wise for police to be using airway or cranial circulation restricting holds on brittle and agitated black persons unless the attending officers can prove clear and immediate danger to themselves. The Floyd case shows that such procedures either need to be withdrawn, or the officers indemnified from any adverse outcome to the arrestee. Of course this just makes their jobs more difficult, and the rest of us less safe, but that would appear to be the price of coexisting with lawless savages.
But I won’t be joining in the martyr cult of Mr Floyd thank you very much: he seems quite comically unworthy of veneration. Less so indeed than Stephen Lawrence, the black youth whose death by stabbing at the hands of a rival (but white) drug gang sparked decades of self-flagellation in the British establishment. Anyone who cannot distinguish between regretting the partially self-inflicted demise of a felon during his commission of a crime and putting said thug forward for canonisation is a moral imbecile and unworthy of our attention.
I think St. Floyd, patron saint of fentanyl should have his ugly countenance on the new $20 bill instead of that lunatic Harriet Tubman.
Interesting commentary on the purposefully and accidentally killing of Floyd. I’m not a lawyer but it seems very strange that the jury could have found guilty both on the 2nd degree murder AND 2nd degree manslaughter charges. I can only hope that somewhere out there there’s a wise guy Jew lawyer who can successfully argue this. It also begs the question if some sort of Kafka trap was laid.
Very true but not for the reasons the author intended. Far too many white men in America think that by sucking up to Big Brother, and going so far as to actively participate in the exploitation and oppression of their brothers, they will be spared when their number gets punched. That’s the lesson here and it’s the one the author missed in this “muh thin blue line” post.
”We are the pigs”
Not me bro, my conscious is clean.
My conscious had a bit too much wine last night.
Richard Nixon declared Manson guilty while his trial was still in progress in his attempt to malign the counter culture, hippie movement and far left. The result was that it allowed for a dirty poor white man to be robbed of his rights to a fair trial and scapegoated for all the problems in America and be made the poster boy for all that is wrong. Meanwhile Abbie Hoffman, Jerry Rubin, The Black Panthers, The Weather Underground and all the other scum who set America on fire got slaps on the wrist if that and all went onto become prominent heroes. That’s why today in 2021 we see a white washing Netflix movie about the Chicago 7 painting them up as heroes and documentaries on “white supremacist” Manson. The second worst person in history besides Hitler now.
Charlie warned the establishment about what they were doing and clearly said that when the wave goes in, the wave goes out. Now it’s the white police and white men in general who are the poster boys of evil and blacks like Maxine Waters and traitors like Biden are throwing their own law enforcement under the bus.
So for me, the stage was set for all of this ages ago. I’d even go as far as saying that for ages now the system of America have sacrificed their own lambs and threw them to the dogs to make up for what they are guilty of doing to blacks, either real or imagined. Because the system, including cops are terrified of negros and will throw us to them to let them vent their black anger rather than attempt a real crack down on them. They did it with Simpson after the LA Riots. Whites love to see other whites punished by blacks because it makes them feel more secure.
I hate cops. However, I know what the end goal is what is happening and I know that blacks don’t give a shit about the lives of other blacks. They simply want to be above the law. I know why ANTIFA wants police abolished and I know white liberals will be the first, because they are so weak, to be crying tears of blood is these good guys they gatekeep for got their wish and perhaps that is the best thing. Maybe we need to abolish law enforcement completely. Especially in the big city areas where white liberals want to mingle nervously with the non-whites they pretend they aren’t terrified of. Then they willl see what they are all about.
“I can’t breathe!” should be our motto, as the thin blue line around our necks is a noose. Maybe if George Floyd was a Swedish twink Counter Currents would’ve taken an anti-System stance on this matter.
Of course wignats would have BLM-tier retard takes on this issue.
Cops are indeed obedient to the current regime, but they’d be obedient to any regime. This is not a bad trait. When we win, they’ll gleefully carry out our policies and enforce our laws. Never blame the slave for the master’s doing.
Second-degree manslaughter is not “accidental” killing. It is killing by culpable negligence. Have you read the statute?
I see no reason for a white to be either a policeman or soldier for this country at this time. The country doesn’t value the contributions of whites nor does it see the evil that is overtaking our once great land. It might be a couple of years, but I feel getting out is the only way to keep my sanity and physical health. Separation and divorce is imminent.
This is the first time I’ve heard what the composition of the jury was. Am I wrong to feel a tiny bit better?
The 24-minute George Parry video is old, but it is still the best for showing what happened before George Floyd, at his own request, was put on the ground. Parry’s analysis, scene by scene, is cogent, as are his conclusions: the cops did nothing wrong; Floyd was unable to breathe and died from pulmonary edema caused by his fentanyl overdose.
