    Let's say one day Jack decides that his fat is too much to bear, so he decides to begin walking for exercise and weight loss. He's trundling along when suddenly two vehicles pull up, with three black men inside. One vehicle pulls across his path to cut him off, while one of the black men jumps out and points a shotgun at him. Can Jack outrun a shotgun shell? Besides pissing himself, what would Jack do next?

    You know, like what's the problem?
    One thing I wouldn't do, is run at the guy with the shotgun.

    How about you, Pumpkin. Is your first reaction to run at the guy with the Shotgun?

    Run is the first option, fight if cornered.

    You understand the three racist dipshits committed a crime by chasing Arbery, don't you?

    What would you have done in Travis Michael's place? Roddie?

    I agree those three idiots should have left that guy alone, but grabbing a shotgun by the business end is also not a smart move.
    The entire fucking society.

    And blame Arbery again for his own murder. We didn't hear you the first time.

    Keep jogging and ignoring others is an option.
    Stopping and asking what they want is another.
    Running TOWARD someone with a Shotgun is a REAL BAD IDEA.

    What are 'people chasing me' for?
    Do they think I abducted a child?
    Robbed a Grocery store?
    Left my Wallet at the Snowball stand?

    I have no problem interacting with others.

The police dept. provided counseling, as it does to all officers involving in a shooting. She said that that helped, but she carried that with her for decades.

    This kid? I don't see any remorse here, do you? He's relishing being in the limelight for his murders.
    He has no remorse because he feels justified. He's been told by the Fucker Carlsons of the word that he was justified. He flashes white supremacist signs and "Free As Fuck" t-shirts while blood is still drying on his clothes that don't fit his fat ass. He walked into a place where he wasn't invited. He had only one reason to be there. And he took it. He murdered people who think differently than he does. And he got away with it.

    Fuck that kid. He's not sorry. He claims he was saving businesses that weren't under attack and as an inconvenient side effect, had to fill three people with bullets. He's a piece of shit, but as pieces of shit often do, he went to Mar-a-Lago to boost his nonexistent confidence when he started to second guess himself.

    Then Trump jerked off the child murderer until he felt well enough about himself to go out and murder more people. From gawd's mouth to my fingertips.

    And they will lose that appeal.

    The prosecution of the rednecks was pretty masterful. The chief prosecutor didn't leave too many openings for a viable appeal. The fact of the matter is that Arbery's past had absolutely nothing to do with what the rednecks chose to do that day. They saw a black kid running down their lily-white street, so they concluded there must be something amiss. Come to find out, though, that Arbery was unarmed and possessed nothing which had been taken from any construction site. Every single decision they made during that incident was an incorrect one.

    Furthermore, Travis McMichael knew nothing of Arbery's criminal past, so that can't be a factor on which to base an appeal...

    I suggest they text it to each other, Facebook it, Instagram it, and save it to their devices. That makes the homicide investigations a little easier.

    As is chasing someone with a shotgun and then killing them.

    We know that's a bad idea because doing that is what's going to put Travis McMichael in prison for the rest of his life...

    Exactly. Jack is trying to make it Arbery's fault for not obeying the three racist assholes like a good African-American.
