Georgia 'LYNCHING' citizen fatally shoots unarmed black man ... Video Emerges, Grand Jury to Convene

The fatal shooting of Ahmaud Arbery -- a 25-year-old black man out for a jog when he was chased and killed -- was caught on video, prompting a call for a grand jury to review the case.

Arbery's death is being referred to as a modern-day lynching, as he was unarmed when he was gunned down in Brunswick, GA on February 23 by a white citizen named Travis McMichael ... who has not been arrested or charged. He also happens to be the son of a former district attorney investigator.

As you can see in the video, Arbery was jogging when he was stopped by McMichael and his father in a white pickup truck. McMichael was armed with a shotgun. Arbery appears to attempt to run around the truck before he and McMichael start grappling.

After at least 2 shots, the men continued struggling over the gun ... until Arbery stumbles away, shot in the mid-section, and then collapses to the ground. He was later pronounced dead.

McMichael has not been charged in the shooting ... reportedly because he and his father, who was in the back of the truck, claim they were trying to make a citizen's arrest. They claim Ahmaud fit the description of a suspect in a string of recent break-ins in the area.

After the emergence of the video, D.A. Pro Tempore Tom Durden has decided the case "should be presented to the grand jury of Glynn County for consideration of criminal charges against those involved in the death of Mr. Arbery.”

Ahmaud's family says the use of deadly force was unnecessary.

Video Shows Fatal Shooting of Ahmaud Arbery, Unarmed Black Man in Georgia

The fatal shooting of Ahmaud Arbery, a 25-year-old unarmed black man, was caught on video and has prompted a grand jury investigation.

Here's the statement from the district attorney who was brought in to oversee the case and decide how and whether the case should be prosecuted.

Attorney Lee Merritt, who represents Arberys mother, claims "The series of events captured in this video confirm what all the evidence indicated prior to its release— Ahmaud Arbery was pursued by three white men that targeted him solely because of his race and murdered him..."

Imagine being hunted by two fat hillbillies in a truck.

Never once have I argued that. The jogger got sent down to the real south-central because he thought engaging in fisticuffs with a dude armed with a shotgun was a good idea.

He didn't think it was a good idea, these were random people who ran him down. He had no idea who they were and a guy got out with a shotgun armed. Not slung over his back, not racked in the car, in his hands. With a confederate flag on the back. Maybe he felt they were going to take him somewhere he didn't want to go. Maybe he thought they were just looking for an excuse to hurt somebody. Generally, when strangers chase you down and get out at you with a gun, they generally don't intend good things for you. Regardless, they were responsible for the situation and the aggressors. Anything that happens is on them. They were reckless and irresponsible for causing it and it resulted in a man's death. They initiated, they don't get to claim self defense nor a citizen's arrest. It is homicide any way you look at it.

Even if you argue they couldn't control the situation because they ran down a mentally-ill man to talk to him, that's more to reason why you don't go out and be a fucking vigilante.

Based, soup-like fagioli is the master race I even skip the tomatoes altogether and use a fond blanc with just a little parm melted in.

Fuck yeah. I ate it thick once at a restaurant and it was fucking awful. Never again.

Well for one thing they chased down and murdered a random black kid because they assumed he was stealing hammers.

The reason they started to chase Arbery was because they saw him sprinting away and recognized him from the footage.
Just the other night they already had seen him, wanted to confront him but were scared he was armed
That's also the reason they took their guns with them.

lol yeah and generally when strangers show up to your neighborhood and start stealing shit they generally don't intend good things for you. These are also not random people. They were people living peacefully in their own neighborhood and were having to deal with someone from the outside coming in and causing problems. Your argument is on the same level as someone being charged with murder because they shot someone who broke into their home and then attacked them.

But police records showed that there hadn't been a string of break-ins in the neighbourhood, so we know that's a lie. They murdered him for being black in a cracker neighbourhood.

Again, call the police.

They still didn't see him engage in any crimes. It is not their job. They want to do something? Call the cops and follow him. Maybe don't run him down. When you chase people and come out with a weapon, people are going to think you are going to do them harm. This still doesn't meet the criteria of the law. They initiated, they're responsible. I don't know why this is a hard concept to understand.

They were random people to him. How do they know? Because they think they recognized him as he was moving? And what, you can't go into other neighborhoods anymore? Also, drunk college kids not from neighborhoods steal plenty of shit off of front lawns and do dumb bullshit. Same with white suburban teens. Just because a guy takes a hammer doesn't mean he's breaking into anything. And there is no evidence he took a hammer anyway. The whole argument is fucking dumb because people take shit off of lawns and from unattended shit all the time. It doesn't mean they want to fuck up your neighborhood.

My friend got drunk and took a rabbit statue that was maybe $10 off someone's stoop. Should he have been gunned down because of doing something arguably worse by taking personal, not corporate property off of an occupied house? (Also of which there is no evidence of and is strictly a hypothetical)

No it fucking isn't, that's a pure strawman. You don't get to ride around like the fucking hillbilly militia because you thought you recognized some guy in surveillance footage. A neighborhood isn't a house. Just because you live there doesn't give you the right to chase random people down. They had no idea who he was. How do they know he stole anything? They didn't see it. They didn't say it in their statements to police. How did they know he was causing trouble?

>They were random people to him. How do they know?
And what was he to them? The fucking easter bunny? Are you really trying to argue that you'd be perfectly fine with some stranger coming into your neighborhood and committing crimes around where your kids play? I'm sure nothing bad has ever come from that.

I'm going to go ahead and bow out of this thread because it's overtly obvious at this point that muh feels is the dominant force here, and that's a game that clearly only works one way.

No burglary but for at least 7 months that neighborhood complained about unwanted visits, suspicious behavior, tresspassing and thefts.
Before the incident 4 guns were stolen.
They were fed up with the whole situation, saw Arbery running who they recognized from earlier events & decided to make a citizen arrest.

The recognised Arbery as the two masked and hooded men in an unknown car?

Bro it doesn't matter if there's petty crime in your neighbourhood you can't run down and murder random black people.

 

[SBG]

Is it safe to say that all people involved in this case were just criminals? I don‘t even think there’s any real winner in this case. You can’t compare this to the likes of the Rittenhouse trial or even the George Floyd trial.

Not really. I was surprised during the trial they showed video of the black guy starting to jog away from the construction site on a different evening along with video of other random people just strolling through the construction site.

The issue is that random people can't just act as the police and stop someone based on them being suspicious of them, nor can you stop people for minor crimes. It's why you can't try tackling and apprehending a guy that shoplifted from a store, it has to be an actual felony or something that causes an actual danger to others. So even if those guys were hoping to protect their neighborhood from some petty criminal, they legally couldn't apprehend him the way they were hoping to.

The fucked up part though, is they probably would have gotten off if Bryan hadn't released the video of the incident since most people don't have the stomach to watch people die on video and will get emotional enough that no serious argument will work on them.

 

[Dyn]

I'm going to go ahead and bow out

t. whites in America

 

[Wy4M]

No, The 2 hooded men are metioned in the police report from Dec 2019.
They recognized Arbery from the footage that was recorded in the construction site and from the night before.

 

[Dyn]

They recognized Arbery from the footage that was recorded in the construction site and from the night before.

The footage where he commits literally no crimes whatsoever?

In this thread there seems to be a repeating pattern of the defenders of Hillbilly Jim and his 2 bruddas about self defense.

It is flawed simply because for 5 minutes they have been hunting a man - who has been running from them. Coupled with the fact the 3 men then finally cornered the man. And then demanded that this man remain confined and then held a weapon as a show of force.

Claiming self defense after these acts is entirely null and void; period. They committed felonies to this point.

That is a kin to a perp walking into a shop, demanding money with a gun (felony committed), and then as the attendant tries to stop the man, the perp who walked in then shoots the attendant in self-defense.

And you want the perp to claim self defense?

I found a picture of your lawyer who gave you your advice- enjoy. The real problem is, you numbskulls think what the 3 guys were doing was OK - and that's where rather than your logic being flawed, it shows you are just as fucking stupid as these 3 guys.

 

[Aria]

This is a great example of why using excessive force is not the best option.

if they thought ahmaud was a threat they should have called the cops on him instead of illegally detaining him.

 

[Feline Supremacist]

Cannellini beans, with ditalini. Fresh tomatoes and a bit of pancetta if you want to go a bit savory. Otherwise the typical fresh vegetables. Some its stew-like, some pasta. I make mine hot and soup-like, sort of like a heavier minestrone.

Dude, you are literally saying that he deserved to get shot for taking like an $8 hammer for a construction site. And the point is moot anyway, even if he did engage in one of the pettiest fucking crimes imaginable. They didn't see him take it, he didn't admit to it. Therefore they don't get to use the citizen's arrest law as cover. They rode down a man, came at him with a shotgun, saying they just wanted to 'talk'.

I mean, you're arguing a human life is worth not even an individual's property, but some random contracting company who probably gets a bulk discount on all the hammers and shit they lose on sites. So, in your world they killed a guy over a $4 piece of equipment not owned by anyone. Just admit you hate niggers and don't care because no one in their right fucking mind is going to agree that taking a hammer on an open construction site = death.

His own mama said he was mental and got confrontational, threatening folks with harm all the time. When she called the police on him. You're not wrong but let's be real, he was a crazy coon.

 

[MadStan]

Morons should have just shot the fucker and then buried him in the woods, not taped shit. Hint, if some niggo is terrorizing your town, just kill them and bury them somewhere in the woods. None of their family are gonna care, they're just gonna think Jamal went on another crack bender. The only case where a black mother cares about her kids are if she thinks she can get a nice payday from whitey.

Memo to you: The people doing the terrorizing were the 3 white guys.

That's kind of the point.
