Some of you need to stop with the “Blame Arbery” threads.

We all get it. He probably was not a choir boy.

Trying to deflect from the idiocy of the two morons just adds fuel to the fire.

There is no defending their actions, and even hinting at that is just stupid.

People said this about the Trayvon case too FWIW. Can we just let the actual facts of what happened come out before we decide who is guilty of what?

ETA: This is not me saying the shooters did nothing wrong btw. Feel like I need to state that.

And some of you need to stop defending him until all the evidence is in.

See how that works

And yet, they get a chance to defend themselves in this country last time I checked.

The general consensus on here is that he was no choir boy but what happened to him was very likely not justified and amounts to murder or manslaughter.

Most people are just reporting facts as they come out because some things coming out are kind of weird.

Some are reporting them gleefully to justify what happened, but most are not.

They also said the same thing in the Michael Brown case.

While we can't be sure of it's applicability in this case, what you're in effect saying is that citizens have no role in the protection of life, liberty or property. Ours is to be passive and to depend entirely on law enforcement for that defense.

It's all team sports

If you want to talk about the shooting and the social ramifications honestly, without people assuming you're defending the perpetrators, you're shite out of luck.

I was right about Trayvon Martin.
I was right about Michael Brown.
I'll be right about Arbery as well.

Some people will never learn.

Can we be neutral until all of the facts are known?

frick you, loser. as a matter of fact, there is some defending, because the burden on proof is on the prosecution.

but don't worry, i'm sure someone noticed your signal

That depends on the claims being made about their actions, doesn't it? There's a big difference between "what a couple of dumbasses" and "hur dur dem rednecks went and lynched a colored boy!!"

But, some of us understand that this singular event, in a country of 327 million people, is being USED by the media to foster the false narrative that 1) white racism exists on a substantial level (spoiler alert: it doesn't) and 2) they are trying to attach the blame for this false narrative to President Trump and his supporters.

And if you don't believe that, Ag Zwin, just check out what the race-baiting POS Mayer of Atlanta has said about this.

Wake up, dude. Don't be an unwitting useful idiot.

Let's see who's "hopelessly stupid"?
What's your track record?
Who did you side with before:
Trayvon Martin or George Zimmerman?
Michael Brown or Darren Wilson?

Now the court of public opinion is go after the guy who shot the video.. People are saying "I can hear in the video that he is loading a gun".. LOL How can you drive a car, hold a phone to video and load a gun at the same time? Their answer "easy just drive with one knee.. I do it all the time"... I gave up..

My biggest issue is how they search out these cases and make them national news to push the “all whites”, “the south” or “all repliblicans” are racist. 15K+ murders occur in this country annually but we only hear about ones like this to anger blacks across the USA. Why is that?
