    So, the Georgia Republicans are going to pander to the black thug vote this election cycle. The GOP shoots itself in the foot yet again. I did like the footage they aired of our latest Saint Dindunuttin sitting in a park with his pants down and no shirt on, and with a suspended drivers license. lol these street ***** are the worst actors ever caught on video.

    I never posted this (I'm sure somebody has), but I always thought the fact that the video was even being shot was a little strange.... Why?? It's not like it's a pretty sunset or tornado coming...

    Apparently, my unspoken instinct on that might be justified..

    They arrested the guy holding the camera and charged him with murder... lol

    How do you get charged with murder when you didn't kill anyone?

    Easy, get caught defending yourself from a violent thug while Being White, in an election year, for one, and for being the white guy who recorded the whole thing and making it that much harder to railroad your white neighbors' into prison convincingly. Now all they're left with is plain old corruption and political persecution. They hope it al goes away soon, and they can go about having these guys murdered in jail or prison. They think they can get black votes away from the Democrats for that, for some reason.

    In my opinion I believe it fits into the two charges as identified by the GBI.
    There is premeditation with them chasing him down and loading weapons in the car, they had no right to stop him as they had not witnessed a felony, and Avery had the right to defend himself once he felt threatened.

    Citizens arrest laws make this much more tricky but I disagree with those entirely unless you are protecting someone in duress.

    I personally would never want someone chasing me down and approaching me while flashing a weapon at me because they felt like I had done something wrong, thankfully I rarely leave my home unarmed so they would be the ones dead in the middle of the street.

    I don’t know about GA but in TN if you are involved in any way with a crime and someone is killed you are charged with murder. We had a case not long ago where a man held a convenience store door open for someone that he witnessed shoot a patron and he was charged with murder — I am not sure of the outcome though.

    It suggests the evidence is mounting for premeditated. Yeah. You can be charged with murder if you’re an accessory to it.

    Dumb, dumb, dumb unless, of course, one believes they’re insulated from the consequences of their actions. Apparently these three stooges do.

    I highly doubt that you have been caught stealing a large screen TV or threatening a police officer on camera either. I strongly doubt anybody dressed like Arbery has ever been remotely close to where you live.

    The guy was a belligerent POS. Watch the unedited video of the encounter above and tell me the dude isn't dangerous.... literally threatening to beat the crap out of a police officer (his level of stupid was only exceeded by his misanthropy).

    I have lived in the deep south and in Appalachia, I can assure you I have seen my fair share of people in a jacket with no shirt (of both races) usually mixed with drugs.

    As for the video above, I have watched it in its entirety, the second cop attempted to taser him even though he was complying after he had been searched. He had the right to refuse the search of his vehicle. He was not charged. Was he aggressive and belligerent, yes. I wouldn’t say dangerous or he would have been arrested.

    That video is irrelevant however, the only questions that should be asked is:
    Would a rational person feel threatened as the events unfolded allowing them to act in self defense? I would argue yes
    Did the McMichales act unlawfully by chasing him down, blocking his path and exiting the vehicle with weapons out? I would also argue yes here but citizens arrest laws will have some overlap which may cause a differencing of opinion.

    The larger question is why are citizens arrest laws still on the books — police dislike them, they allow for events like this and introduce too many variables all dependent on how a “witness” feels about a situation.

    Did you notice what he was charged with “Criminal Attempt to Commit False Imprisonment” — how many pages have been of people saying there was no detainment attempt or the GBI would have charged it?

    Looks like new charges can be added later!
    Who knew?

    The same way you get impeached without evidence. The racist liberals will lose this one too. Just wait for the court date.

    Why wasn't he arrested?

    Sorry this isn't 1940, where you could just murder a black man in Jerkwater, GA and everybody was too scared to say anything about it.

    I did notice that. The attempted false imprisonment would just be a lesser included charge with the McMichaels that wouldn't be necessary since the murder and aggrevated assault are so easy to prove in their case. With Roddie they don't have as much evidence for the aggravated assault but there is obvious support for false imprisonment.

    If Roddie doesn't agree to a plea deal they probably tack that onto the other two.

    If someone tries to take a shotgun out of my hands im going to shoot them. It was totally irrational behavior to attack the guy with the gun. That is the act that caused his death.

    Sure any of the people why do you keep asserting that unless they also tried to question other peoole who were not there with whom you had never had a run in you cannot stop one with which you have had the run in? It's a specious stupid argument.

    One last time find out who they are and call the police and tell them. Go to the neighborhood yourself and wait foe them to show up again and call the police. I fully support that. So you can stop asking me inane questions about it.
