BLM London Protest

[WTFH]

Can't find a reliable source on weight but some sites are putting around 110kg, or 17st

OK, So you didn't read the bit of the autopsy where it stated his height and weight, instead claiming that he was over a stone heavier.
Do you not consider the autopsy report to be a reliable source for his height and weight?

[vetran]

I'm not sure being 6' 4" makes you a giant, and under 16st isn't "giant" either.

GIANT | meaning in the Cambridge English Dictionary

vgiantnoun [ C ]

UK /ˈdʒaɪ.ənt/ US /ˈdʒaɪ.ənt/

giant noun [C] (VERY TALL PERSON)

B1

an imaginary creature like a man but extremely tall, strong, and usually very cruel, appearing especially in children's stories









someone who is taller or larger than usual

So - someone who is taller or larger than usual is the definition to satisfy.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)Trusted Source, the average age-adjusted height for American men 20 years old and up is 69.1 inches (175.4 centimeters). That’s about 5 feet 9 inches tall.

So he was 7 inches / 10% taller than average. He qualifies as a giant by definition or do you / old smeg want to argue the dictionary definition as usual because you know better? Sneering optional.

[NotAllThere]

I say this as a non-white person who has faced racism...Those who piss on public property in that way or who vandalise deserve to be smashed in the head with a blunt instrument repeatedly until they die (regardless of their colour).

Violent non-white person aren't you. Interesting values system as well.

It's your interpretation of the dictionary that is open to question, as is so often the case.

How have you decided that 10% taller than the average height is taller than usual? You can make a case that it is. You can make a case that 2% taller than the average height is taller than usual. But neither of these is a clear-cut definition. Because "usual" is not quantified in the definition you provide.

You probably need to find a medical dictionary definition of "giant" if you want a definition you can stand over with certainty.

The autopsy is part of the Deep State conspiracy to wipe out the white race.

So he was 7 inches

That's not that big.

You are wrong.

A Crash Course in the American Grand Jury System

Unlike the determination that is made by a trial jury, the evaluation performed by a grand jury is not whether the accused committed the crime in question, but whether there is probable cause to bring charges. Additionally, unlike in a criminal trial on the merits, a prosecution is not required to prove the case "beyond a reasonable doubt," but typically must convince the grand jury only that a trial on the merits of the charges alleged is reasonable (although some jurisdictions require that the prosecution prove probable cause by a "preponderance of the evidence" [i.e., more likely than not] standard).

That is how the US system works, instead of our CPS they have a Jury trial to decide if there is a case to answer. We only see the bit after the CPS as a prosecution.

Interestingly he quotes

Based on the influence of the prosecutor, who (other than the court reporter) is the only non-juror present and who selects the evidence to present, various studies have suggested that the rate of indictment by a grand jury ranges from approximately 95% to approximately 99%.

so no indictment is quite unusual as the bar is so low.

No that is Gigantism, a different definition altogether.

Gigantism - Wikipedia

The dictionary definition is acceptable for normal people. 10% does seem to be significant in a value across an entire population.
