    Default Ahmaud Arbery shooting in GA

    Ahmaud Arbery shooting in GA.

    Anyone else seen the video. Can't understand why a grand jury is needed to recommend charges.


    If a man is alone in the woods, says something, and a woman does not hear, is he still wrong?

    Read the article, didn't have a video in it but sounds to me like those guys need some jail time, you can't just do that cause you think someone might be a criminal

    I saw the video but hard to tell what happened, half of it the camera was pointed off into nowhere and half was with them behind a truck. All you can see at the end is the perp fighting for the shotgun being held by the cop.

    What was said? What led to the perp tangling with the cop holding the shotgun? Was this guy just out for a run or was he running from someone or from a house he just burglarized. Just not enough information to make any judgments from a 10 second poor video.

    I'm certain the Glynn County jury will see it the same way.

    Bad shoot. Doesn't meet the requirements for use of deadly force by a private citizen. They weren't in their home and they were the aggressors.

    Word on the street is that there had been some car and home break ins in the area.

    Ahmaud was seen running through the neighborhood. The guy driving the truck and also filming and the guys with the guns set a trap. The guy driving was running him towards the guys with the guns and they tried a citizens arrest. The rest you can see on video

    This is just what I've been told from a friend who lives in Glenn county. All hearsay at this point.

    He should have kept running straight, not the hard left towards the threat.

    Someone comes at you with a shotgun what are you supposed to do? They maneuvered the truck to cut him off. He ran around to the right and one shot was fired when he came around the truck, like you would do if a truck blocked your way.

    Who in the Barney Fife are they to make a citizen's arrest wielding a shotgun with backup guy with pistol riding in the back of the truck?



    https://www.ajc.com/news/local/bring...Nqfedg8JgXm2K/

    "Arbery is seen running at a jogger’s pace in the middle of a subdivision road. Greg McMichael told police Arbery was “hauling ass.” The elder McMichael said they had followed Arbery because they believed he was responsible for a series of break-ins within their community.

    The video shows Arbery attempting to run around a pickup truck where two men confront him, both armed."

    Runner swerved to the right to avoid redneck with shotgun. Redneck turns to go around front of truck to confront runner. At that time runner turned toward and responded to threat instead of getting shot in the back.

    This. We're all quick to convict. Trayvon Martin was initially portrayed as an innocent kid shot by a racist. The facts that were withheld painted a different picture.

    Not saying I can see any way the attempt to stop him was justified, but we don't know what we don't know. We're seeing a piece of the story.

    As in the Travon Martin case or Charleston park shooting case, this will get sorted out in a court of law. Not sure what the laws are in Ga. for citizens arrest..... as in, does a felony have to be committed in the presence of the arresting citizen? Sure looks suspicious though. Also suspicious is the cell phone video. Who rides around their neighborhood routinely videoing with their cell phone? More to come for sure......just let’s not be like the Left and jump to a whole bunch of conclusions. Every side sounds good until you hear the other side. The Legal system is not perfect but is pretty good at working through things like this.
    If it ain\'t accurate at long distance, then the fact that it is flat shooting is meaningless.

    The runner was expecting it from those reaction times, something happened before hand.
