The murder of Ahmaud Arbery

[McDad]

If I was there I would’ve done it myself. If it was an ex police officer there? I probably would ask for help if I needed it

I cannot follow your reply.
You'd want me, a civilian, out of my vehicle?

Are you a LEO? I thought you were in the medical profession?

I have been in law enforcement for 22 years although not full time patrol. I work for a local hospital as an executive now but still am bonded

I agree with manslaughter but that isn't what the post I responded to stated.

You responded to mine, and I stand by what I said. I know exactly what happened in regards to being able to convict for manslaughter.

 

[Rickyvol77]

Manslaughter is.

Self defense isn’t manslaughter

 

[McDad]

Are you a LEO? I thought you were in the medical profession?

I thought LEO.

????

 

[Weezer]

And neither of those things is a crime

I disagree. And when their actions lead directly to someone's death, it certainly is a crime.

Self defense isn’t manslaughter

Chasing someone down isn't self defense.

Yeah. Suck it, Weezer.

I was right....AGAIN.

 

[BlackCreekVol]

Because you know, I'm sure he thought the rednecks chasing him in a truck in southern Georgia with guns just wanted to have a nice chat.

Awe.... was the criminal scared? Maybe don’t steal???? Or if you choose to and your caught, give up or face the consequences of not. The thought that he was a jogger minding his own business is rediculous

Depends on situation. Are we looking for someone around your neighborhood who did something bad? If it’s a home invasion no, if it’s a homeless guy who is breaking lawn ornaments maybe.
But you are asking the wrong question. These guys were trying to follow before the police got there. They were waiting on them. That I have seen happen several times in the past

And what did he steal?

 

[Rickyvol77]

Yeah. Suck it, Weezer.

I was right....AGAIN.

Lol @ McDad. Weezer and I usually agree a lot. This is just one of those times we do not

Painful.

 

[Weezer]

Yeah. Suck it, Weezer.

I was right....AGAIN.

And I wasn't wrong, so you can kiss 72's ass.

 

[Rickyvol77]

And what did he steal?

He tried to steal a shotgun but only got a couple of rounds

No he's not.

Don't defend him. He must wallow in his suckitude.

Thems the rules.

Yeah, you sure aren't getting any joy out of this guy getting killed now are you?

Pathetic.

 

[Rickyvol77]

Again the legal argument is whether the suspects assault on the guy led to his death. There is no evidence the suspect would’ve been shot otherwise

 

[Weezer]

They had no proof he committed a crime or was the burglar that had plagued the neighborhood. They acted on suspicion alone. So your statement comes across as very obtuse.

 

[Rickyvol77]

Yeah, you sure aren't getting any joy out of this guy getting killed now are you?

Pathetic.

No joy at all. It’s a message board debate. Lighten up

Yeah, except for the part where they kept chasing him with guns.

Says the guy triggered by the word "redneck".

 

[Rickyvol77]

Yeah, except for the part where they kept chasing him with guns.

You sound like bnhunt with this argument. Having mere possession of a firearm doesn’t mean a shooting will happen

 

[TrumpedUpVol]

Chasing someone down isn't self defense.

That will undoubtedly be the defense's claim should the grand jury choose to indict the McMichaels. I would assume that they will end up being tried for manslaughter, but it seems weird to act as if there aren't a lot more details regarding this situation that need to come to light in the coming weeks/months.
