Any of that didn't get the Jogger shot. He could have kept on ignoring them. It was the sudden lunging towards the guy with the Shotgun that got him shot.
That's not what happened, you lying asshole. Arbery got to the front passenger quarter panel of the white pickup truck. Travis was pointing his gun at Arbery. Had Arbery run 3 more steps forward Travis would have shot him. Had Arbery frozen in place and asked the Klansmen if they needed a boot shine Travis would have shot him.
Now, both scenarios are speculation, of course. What we do know is that the white bois had already falsely imprisoned an innocent man and decided to threaten him with deadly force. They had already broken a number of laws while Arbery had broken one -- a misdemeanor that isn't subject to the thing called a "citizen's arrest" that no longer exists. In Arbery's act of self defense, what you call a lunging, Travis murdered him. Travis will get life without parole; and that's not enough.
