"Chauvin has been found guilty of unintentional second-degree murder, third-degree murder, and second-degree manslaughter."
Ok, let me know when sentencing matches the crime.
After reading the article from @slooterman I can say as someone who is a #paralympian and seen Cawthorn race that it's only the tip of the iceberg. He did one race in 2019 but either didn't put in the effort or gave up after realizing hard work is required. (1/x)

We unload near the start line to transfer to our racing wheelchairs and warm-up. He was maybe one of three or four doing the race that were new to the sport but he was the only one that didn't much in terms warming up and getting ready for the race. (4/x)

I cannot say I am shocked today about the U.S. Capitol or the PA Capitol.
Time to acknowledge that some people are willing to throw out democracy for authoritarianism. Time to realize their "protesting" is rarely peaceful or nonviolent. (1/2)

For #OlympicParalympicDay I rather honor @msparasurfer than talk about myself.
She was a brilliant athlete in multiple sports and an even greater person loved by all around her.
She was also one of the few who showed me it was OK to have #Pride as an athlete.

Most athletes training for #tokyo2020 (#tokyo2021?) #Olympics/#Paralympics: "I'm disappointed! " or "Another 365 days to go!"
Me considering training during a stay-in-home order due to #COVID19: PRIORITIES!
I swear I thought the homie @HermG1 had this one from mile 4 on, then again you never hear the quote "better good than lucky". He's definitely had a come up in the last year or so.

Dear Nick Caporella of National Beverage Corp (@lacroixwater), don't compare your inadequacies as CEO or quality of product to a person with a disability. We are too dignified to be associated with you and horribly flavored seltzer. Go $Fizz yourself.

Interesting that @stephenasmith gives @Phila1234567_ (confirmed burner) the benefit of a doubt with five burner Twitter accounts, linked by data analysis, yet immediately rips @KDTrey5 for his three burner accounts last year. #hypocrisy #speaktruthtopower
What happened with the U.S. Presidency was so incredible and so inspiring to me.and I watched - its a little tough to watch too much, but I watched as much as I could. #proudparalympian thehill.com/blogs/blog-brief…

Four of the films that had in the past, currently, and will forever have an impact on me. #FilmStruck4
You know times have changed when you're in a high end restaurant and the sound system is kicking The Corner by Common.
After seeing this in a Parisian grocery store, officially #thestruggleisreal! #notinkansasanymore #americanarrogance
