He didn't get killed for looking "suspicious." He got killed for attacking a man holding a shotgun.
What he would have gotten for looking "suspicious" was being talked to, and possibly held until the cops arrived.
But he *CHOSE* to attack a man with a shotgun, and the consequence of doing that is at worst death, and at best, disfigurement and possibly amputation.
He could also have walked away. What are they going to do, chase after him?
EXACTLY. Thank you. I love Ben Shapiro, but he has been harping on this incident for a couple of days. He completely misses the point that, no matter what, nobody in their right mind attacks someone holding a shotgun on them, especially if the person with the shotgun has a backup accomplice.
Shapiro paints this as it being as though he was completely fenced in. I haven't seen the video (tagline explains that), but if you're out on the street, it's nearly impossible to be completely fenced in with no place to run away. While the guys who held the guns may ultimately be responsible for Mr. Arbery's death, he was largely culpable as well. What he did was fatally stupid. Just like what Michael Brown did, or Trayvon Martin.
