3 men guilty of murder in the killing of Ahmaud Arbery

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.
 
I was thinking something similar. Jack's over here like, "I get along with everybody. Of course I would stand in a street after having done nothing wrong and answer a strange civilian's questions while he points a gun at me. Why wouldn't I?"

Jack's being a little bitch in order to make Arbery's murder his own fault. I don't show my ID to anyone else I have to. I don't consent to searches of my person or my property unless I have to. I sure as shit wouldn't let someone confront me with lethal force while smiling and say, "Aw, shucks, folks. What seems to be the problem?"

That's the same "reasoning" they used over Trayvon Martin's murder... that he should have stopped walking when Zimmerman yelled at him. They immediately put a dead boy's life on trial and blamed him for his own death. :mad:
 
Agreed but Jack is a pretty solid impish bipolar so while he likes to poke fun he's often irrational in his thinking.

My "diagnosis", since that's what you like to do, is that Jack is afraid of his own shadow and hasn't given one hour of serious thought to his white and male privileges. He's a "devil's advocate" type of troll who likes to see if he can bother all sides while occasionally expressing, depending on the subject, a little bit of uncontrived racism.
 
:) I think it's called 'being a human being'.

It's not. You're just another elderly white American male who has little to no international and intercultural experience. You think that your shit doesn't stink and that we should all be capable of singing kumbaya.
 
:) The Jury has reached their Verdict. The case is over. All we are doing here is 'Monday Morning Quarterbacking'.

Except you want to keep saying that the black boi should have stood still and taken his murder like a man. You can always accept the verdict of the jury and stop responding, Jack. :)
 
hahahahahaha ... I'm just making a point here. "Running TOWARDS someone with a Shotgun ... is a BAD IDEA"

Why was the shotgun pointed at him? Are you really such a pussy that you would freeze in place when some honkey ass stranger was pointing a shotgun at you for no reason? Seriously, Jack, in this thread, fuck you.

You're a soft, white bitch.

:) You have an active imagination.

True. In their minds, every taking of a black life is justified. "He should have stopped running. He should have put his hands up. Why was he reaching for his registration? Why didn't he put his hands on the steering wheel? Why didn't he shove his fists up his own ass while he offered blow jobs to his attackers? I mean, he obviously deserved to die."

You nailed it. It's almost like you were here at the time.
 
He should have ignored them, sure. Keep running and risk getting shot in the back.

Yeah.

1. Keep jogging. Ignore them. Call 911.
2. Stop. Ask them what they want.
3. Run at the guy with the Shotgun.

:) You don't need to be overly brilliant to NOT run towards the guy with the Shotgun.

It's a Political Forum. That's what we do here.

I'm not sure whether the Shotgun was pointed at the Jogger or not, but either way ... the Smart Move is to NOT run towards the guy with the Gun.

The shot came when Arbery reached the front of the truck. Are you special needs? How do you imagine that shot landed in Arbery had Travis not had the gun pointed at him?

You're a fucking idiot.

Why? The plan was to kill him. He decided that his best chance was to stop him from being able to shoot.
