My take

       As I'm sure everyone in the country knows by now, Derek Chauvin has been found guilty of 2nd and 3rd degree murder and manslaughter in the killing of George Floyd last May in Minneapolis.  While a large majority of Americans are pleased and relieved by the verdict, a small and vocal minority will refuse to believe justice was served.   These people are expressing disappointment the verdicts did not go the other way.  Not because they think Chauvin was innocent, but because they hoped a verdict of innocence would stir an outbreak of lawless violence in cities across the country.  They are not interested in a just society, but in a society just for them.
