Please don't tell me that anyone here thought they weren't guilty of hunting this man down, and killing him. They literally hunted him, as he was going for a jog. IP: Logged |

Ridiculous isn't it. Being accused of siding with murderers who hunted down a young black man and killed him. In my opinion the shooter should have been sentenced to execution and the other 2 given life without parole. The laws should work for everyone...equally. But leftists would howl, screech, whine and snivel against that concept. For instance: The BLM and Antifa thugs who killed people in the numerous riots are protected from prosecution and bailed out of jail with money from Kamala Harris...and other communist loons.

Teasel: Our jury system works. A jury of 11 whites and a Black looked at the evidence to decide whether or not self-defense applied. Just like with what the Rittenhouse jury of 11 whites and a Black did. If you only support one of those decisions because if partisan politics, then maybe you’re the racist—or you are getting your talking points from racists—which isn’t much better.IP: Logged |

But you know, the media still lied. I had not really followed this case and accepted the media's pat version: The whites hunted down and killed a black man who was just going for a jog. After I made my comment, I decided to do some research of my own and checked the evidence presented at the trial, turned out Arbery or someone who looked like him, was on surveillance footage video trespassing into a construction site numerous times. The last video on that day definitely shows him entering the house and looking around, before getting out. https://youtu.be/NAVzFTnUmNo As for the "jog" thing, I am not sure he was a jogger. I have yet to see people jogging wearing Timbs... HOWEVER, those who killed him had no business taking it upon themselves to make a citizen arrest, just because they felt he was suspicious; and in the ensuing struggle, he was shot and killed. That is not what gun ownership is for. Gun ownership is for self-defense, not for rounding up people you think are suspicious. For these reasons, I completely agree with the verdict. Justice was served. IP: Logged |
