“...(burglarized so often cameras were installed inside)….”
Except that the homeowner has stated that nothing was ever stolen from the house under construction. The only thing happening was Lookie Lous wandering through.
Because that is not what happened.
Aubery charged the junior McMichaels from 60 feet away, and closed the last 15 feet at an accelerated pace, punched McMichaels in the head, and grappled for the shotgun.
Now that is an assault.
You don't get a free pass for that kind of stupidity just because you are a Black man. And indeed, race becomes irrelevant under the circumstances. "Think of it as Evolution in Action".
Exactly what I meant when I talked about repeating lies.
“They were in a VEHICLE”
Not when the career criminal Arbery attacked. Why did you even say that? You can’t possibly have thought it was true.
“how could Arbery have been wrestling their weapon if they were in a vehicle?”
Moot. The son was standing outside the truck.
“Unless the son came down to confront Arbery?”
OMG! No! No! A white man confronting a black career criminal in the commission of a felony? The horror! The horror! What the son did was completely legal. What the career criminal did was a felony.
“Was that confrontation necessary?”
We all have a duty and a responsibility to confront career criminals when they are out and about pursuing their chosen career.
“Why did they not call the police while tailing Arbery?”
What would make you think you could get away with telling a lie like that? Not only has it been reported many times that they did call the police, the 911 tape itself has been released.
“Please answer those.”
I suspect it will have no effect on your repetition of those lies.
“Arbery being a career criminal? OK, did the McMichaels have access to his files?”
If you’re old enough to vote and you can’t recognize a career criminal on sight, you make Forrest Gump look like a genius.
Aggravated assault is a felony. It may not be that hard to prove that jumping out of a truck with a shotgun constitutes aggravated assault. I’d certainly be concerned bodily harm in that circumstance.
> But they should have called the police while doing so...
They did. Gregory McMichael called at 1:14.
He is a common criminal. The evidence IS there.
RE: They did. Gregory McMichael called at 1:14.
Well if they did, why bother coming down the vehicle to confront Arbery? Keep the Cops on the phone and tell them your whereabouts while following the man.
RE:He is a common criminal. The evidence IS there.
Tell me the evidence again for this particular incident... what did he steal?
If I am not mistaken, English, the owner of the house in question, stated that nothing THIS TIME was taken from the house.
The entire neighborhood had been plagued with burglaries.
I hear you. That may be the exact way the prosecution proceeds.
C: murder the result of two wannabe cops who confronted and killed a man who was defending himself from two knuckleheads
According to this story, the owner said nothing had ever been taken from the property.
“It was kind of unsettling to have somebody coming on your property in the middle of the night,” English told the AJC. The videos show no evidence of theft and English told police nothing was ever taken from the property.”
With some people you just expect it.
Here's what was reported by the NYTimes a few days ago...
Two months before Ahmaud Arbery was fatally shot in Glynn County, Ga., a police officer there sent a text to a property owner who was worried about recurring trespassing incidents, a lawyer for the homeowner said on Friday.The officer provided the phone number of a nearby resident, telling the owner to call it the next time his motion-sensing security cameras whirred into action.
It's called confirmation bias. They have their minds made up and only listen to those detail which confirm their belief.
This case is WAY too complicated for a rush to judgment (except perhaps for family members).
It looked to me like that first DA gave it a pretty thorough going over.
In one of the AJC stories, the homeowner was quoted as saying the same thing about the fishing gear, and also that he was not sure if it had been stolen at the Brunswick property or at the property where he lives now.
The homeowner says he never contacted McMichael about people on the property or anything else.
