The jury has found Allen “Lance” Scarsella guilty of on all 12 counts of assault and rioting in the shooting of five protesters outside the Minneapolis Police Department Fourth Precinct in November 2015.
After listening to two straight weeks of witnesses, testimony and evidence, the jury had to determine whether the shooting was an intentional act of hate and violence, as the prosecution contends, or whether it was an act of self-defense, as Scarsella himself testified.
“He needs not prove, but show he went there legitimately. He has the right to bear arms. He did not choose this fight. The fight came to him. And he did what he thought he had to do,” Steve Meshbesher, a veteran criminal defense attorney not connected to the case, told Fox 9.
Prosecutors contend Scarsella is a racist and a gun and military enthusiast who went to the volatile Fourth Precinct protest to antagonize the demonstrators.
They showed the jury a live stream video Scarsella and a friend had posted on the internet days before the confrontation.
Other evidence included some of Scarsella’s text messages that appeared to show a desire to shoot black people
"We are pleased with the jury’s guilty verdict against Allen Scarsella today. As I said at the time we charged Mr. Scarsella and his companions, the racist language he used in the videos and on social media is just not acceptable and the actions he took as a result of those racist beliefs were heinous. The jury obviously saw it the same way.
Lincoln Nguyen

Jayden King
So he was convicted of racism? Interesting.
Colton Sanchez
That's actually why they convicted him. For not liking brown people.
Christopher Lewis
Ironic he gets convicted at the start of negro history month.
Connor Butler
Holy newfag Batman. I've seen newfags /thread themselves, first time ive seen a newfag fpbp themselves. We are truly weaponizing autism.
Nicholas Robinson

Grayson Peterson
Stupid, yes. Illegal, no.
Ian Smith

Michael Lewis
irrelevent got them some prison aids
David Hughes
>the racist language he used in the videos and on social media is just not acceptable and the actions he took as a result of those racist beliefs were heinous
Anyone that wasn't racist before they went to prison will come out a racist so what exactly do they think they're accomplishing here? It's like they're trying the gitmo experiment all over again.
Disregard this I am a faggot and suck cocks. Lance did nothing wrong. He is our an hero and will be remembered.
Lucas Clark
>12 counts of assault and rioting in shooting 5 protesters >he's innocent. What's that expression for irrational people who defend obviously guilty thugs out of tribalism and a persecution complex? It goes "He dindu nuffin" right?
Nolan Morgan
do you just patrol threads looking for me? get out >HE DIN DU NUFFIN
Wasn't self defence. It was a planned shooting. It took the jury less than 8 hours to convict him. This idiot had it coming to him.
Jack Peterson
I LITERALLY CAN NOT STOP SUCKING COCKS Pic related is me IRL
Grayson Allen
Sup Forums is on suicide watch
Henry Allen
Reported for being a reporter.
Alexander Parker
Ha ha time for an appeal
Brayden Mitchell

Isaiah Baker
>Lance planned to shoot niggers at a BLM protest 8 months before Jamar Clark decided to do nuffins I bet you know what cock tastes like
Christian Evans
Any other result and I would've been surprised.
Robert Peterson
What I expected. Do stupid things, win stupid prizes.
What a dummy.
Lucas Brooks
Reported for being literally retarded. Go home downie.
Owen Morales
...
Juan Roberts
On what grounds? Ineffective council? Improper jury instructions? Oh wait. He does want to go to jail for planning a shooting after talking on video about his desire to shoot negros.
Isaiah James
Guess he didn't get a jury of his peers. Dumbass.
Nathan Hughes
It wasn't a planned shooting The niggers chased and cornered them
shitposting in the car before hand is completely fucking irrelevant
this'll be appealed
Adrian Wright
I am at home. Where are you.
Henry Gray
Literally the only evidence the prosecution had was calling him a racist. There were BLM niggers who testified that another nigger HAD A KNIFE AND WAS ABOUT TO KILL HIM and they still convicted him.
This is literally a sacrifice to appease the niggers living in MPLS. BLM just got a blank check to do literally whatever they want. There will be more riots.
Jayden Wright
So they allow internet at the assisted living homes for 'tards? I guess I'd better eat my words then.
James James
those niggers really are reliable. banepost irl and you get to gun them down in self-defense every time. too bad the jury was full of cuckolds.
David Butler
It's still a home and you call me a tard
Tyler Garcia
do stupid things like, be white in a major city? What a horrendous crime, deserves 20+ years no doubt
>Lance had been fantasizing about an opportunity to bait black people into shooting him for months before the opportunity presented itself and he planned and executed exactly what he wanted to do
Bentley Clark
The racists are here. These are examples of things that would put you in prison. enjoy your stay kids
Brandon Hernandez
I do because you post shit like this You know only what the media is telling you, and you seem to be trusting them far too much.
Jaxon Clark
>These are examples of things that would put you in prison. Sorry but your side lost and we're not tired of winning.
Enjoy 8 years of Trump, 8 years of Pence, and a White America nigger.
Hudson Cook
>He's a racist therefore his self-defense is now murder
Brayden Howard
This man is an imposter, I like to pull the trigger on every nigger and put a kike on every spike.
Joseph Morgan
So how long does it take to get an appeal.
Jordan Smith
All the evidence and testimony was in open court. You can read the transcripts
Anthony Walker
On what grounds?
Kayden Price
>fat ass mental retard >middle eastern goatfucker >CHING CHONG DING DONG >spic Why the fuck should I care about these retards and shitskins? They deserve to not only go to prison but to die. America must be made white and purged of chaff.
Hunter Nelson
>You can read the transcripts link? i just googled 'scarsella trial transcript' and didn't find it
does one have to inquire directly at the county courthouse?
Ayden Edwards
The problem is that you can't accept that you're racist Golden Boy is actually guilty of all the things they said he did
Tyler Campbell
Can you imagine? Never EVER being allowed to own a firearm for the rest of your time alive on this planet? Being locked in a cage like an animal after throwing your adult life away? Not being able to enjoy a cheeseburger and a beer whenever you want? All because you decided to do something stupid as fuck without thinking of the consequences.
Jackson Brown
Yeah for how much? They charge a fee for those ya know. The evidence has been presented already nigger. The prosecutions argument was literally "put this racist in jail due to stuff he likes to joke about".
Carter Nguyen
>you're racist Golden Boy Dylann Roof? But he killed niggers and is a based nigger killing machine. He is a hero, never forget.
Dylan Carter
>The problem is that you can't accept that you're racist this was my first post in the thread
are you willing to help track down the transcripts you suggested that others read, or not?
Easton Howard
Exactly
When you go after niggers you should do it like Dylann and know that you're gonna get fucked but it's worth it because all fucking niggers must hang.
God Bless Dylann
Isaiah Young
all because you live in a blue state filled with nigger lovers who think blacks should be free to attack & kill whites**
Christian Davis
There were 27 Witnesses against him as well as dozens of videos and or text messages from him
Jason Rogers
Pretty much this. Lance is a setback, but we'll free him. Either a s/k/wad, a pardon, or a judge that looks at logic and doesn't put up with emotional appeals.
Leo Nelson
They are available from the court there public record
Landon Cook
all because you live in (((America))) filled with (((nigger lovers))) who think blacks should be free to attack & kill white goyim
Don't worry things are going to change, we have 8 years to do it.
Dominic Gutierrez
And those witnesses either had a different story each time or were coached beforehand. Not to mention 3 of them said that someone pulled a knife on him and was about to fucking stab him. That's a damn good reason to shoot. The videos of shitposting and text messages do not prove intent, despite what a delusional jury says.
Brody Rivera
It's still his fault for being a retard and talking over it via text. He ruined a perfectly good opportunity.
Daniel Evans
Oy vey I literally cannot believe you are this racist and bigoted this is a complete third holocaust I'll have you know that the racist bigoted goy killed 6 billion innocent niggers in a fit of bloodlust and hatred all white goy animals must die shalom.
Jonathan Lewis
Oh okay I got it 27 Witnesses and 12 jurors plus a judge and prosecutor all delusional but Lance his actions were completely totally acceptable and in no way premeditated I got it
David Peterson
Honestly this year has been fucking fantastic for /k/ and Sup Forums especially, and I predict the next 8 years will rock too.
He is a pretty big retard. The golden rule of killing people is to not talk about it.
Unless you're talking about killing kikes because all fucking JEWS need to die of course.
Camden Hughes
>The videos of shitposting and text messages do not prove intent, despite what a delusional jury says. Impartially they are convincing of riot, not of assault, he had a legal right to be there.
Ethan Williams
appeal when?
Tyler Myers
>27 niggers, 12 cucks, and a shitlib judge that wants re-elected by libs >texts sent EIGHT MONTHS ago were pre-meditation
Which one said he was going to go out and kill niggers?
PROTIP: none of them
Brayden Carter
The beauty is if Trump succeeds in the next 8 years then we will keep winning for at least the rest of the century, if he fails and the country turns into chaos well we can work with that too. We've won either way.
Ryder Lee
Who is hunter 3-1 actual?
Bentley Nelson
On what grounds
Luis White
FUCK
Dylan Cox
He will most likely die in prison before
Daniel Green
IDK, I'm not a lawyer. I'm just assuming that there would be one...?
Alexander King
I bet he gets a shank through the ear during a minor prison uprising
Thomas Roberts
The fact that lance actually broke 0 laws according to anyone with even half a brain.
Jeremiah Fisher
That's pretty terrifying desu
Ayden Jones
It wouldn't surprise me to see the guards leave him alone in a cell full of BLM affiliated niggers.
Tyler Wood
I'd hang myself or OD on heroin first.
Fuck living at that point.
Colton Morris
He said that if someone attacked him he would kill them.
This is obvious pre-meditation and intent to murder. You fucking racist white hick.
Lucas Martinez
Which hunter? The real one is actually pretty chill and helpful. Faggots like steal his name and ruin threads
Eli Nguyen
Maybe riot.
Charles Jackson
You seem very disconnected from reality
An appeal is not a retrial or introducing new evidence.
