If someone pointed a gun at me, I’d put my hands up, and say,

“hey, my hands are up, don’t shoot.”

Then I’d stand very still and not make any sudden moves.

Looked like the jogger was defending himself after a man shot him with a shot gun while trying to “arrest” him for jogging.

If someone just fired a shot at your with a shot gun, and you were close to them, what would you do? Could you outrun the next shot gun blast?

So was the victim white or black?

CNN may be purposely deceptive here...the news scroll says a white man killed a black man.

“Murder, no.”

I go by the law. You’re welcome to do otherwise.

“WTF is the matter with you?”

I’m informed. Try it sometime - good luck.

Everything a conspiracy with you?

Too much Alex Jones?

Seriously, not everything is a conspiracy.

So someone who doesn’t agree with your opinion, is now a leftist troll? Do we all need to think exactly like you?

Look at the facts. Once you do, you realize a man being gunned down had the right to self defense. That is what people who don’t agree with you are talking about. We can’t allow people to go out and murder people they don’t like and then claim self defense because their little cop play time didn’t go well.

He wasn’t jogging and he got shot in a scuffle after attacking a man with a gun. Trump Deplorable? How can you not see this?

If you have kept up with the news, he did more then just videoing.

What did he do? Try to talk to the guy? The very nerve!

You know that claim is bullsh*t. You know very well that Arbery deliberately ran at the man, and that's why he took a shotgun blast into his hand instead of his chest. Arbery would have been instantly dead if that had been the man's intention. He was shot in the hand because he was reaching for the gun.

There were three shots. The first depending on what you read was to the hand. The mistake Arbery made was grabbing a shotgun and trying to pull it away from the holder. A semiauto will go off every time he pulls it if the holder has his finger on the trigger.

In a nutshell, Arbery was a dumb ass.

"Go to the video tape, he ambushed the white man"
--
Nope, the defendents hunted him down for at least 4 minutes (the length of the fuller chase & murder video) and tried to illegally cut him off several times -one of the killers even admits the idiot the idiot who recorded their attack joined in that attempt.
In the video you can clearly see the moron with the shotgun very quickly charged at the victim with his weapon, going from the left of the truck where he was standing in the street, to the right side of the truck, where he attacked.
Killer standing left, in the street before running to attack after seeing his victim try to get away by running on the right side of the truck.

“...hunted him down...” Might just be a weeee bit hyperbolic. They went after him likely intending to hold him, if necessary at gun point, while waiting for the police to come and investigate.
