re: The dad knew Ahmaud previously

I think this is a good time to run with an unrelated quote that people once laughed at, but that is dead on.

We have things we know here. But they are limited.

We have things we know we don't know here. Things we can actually contemplate.

But, we also have unknown unknowns. And those are the little fricker that get ya.

My knee jerk if you pointed a gun at my head?

1. He wasn't jogging. I suspect that will turn out to be bull shite.

2. They saw him do something that caught their eye, but, wasn't a literal crime.

3. They followed him and yeah, I suspect that him being black contributed to them noticing he wasn't from their neighborhood

4. Up thru 3, they were probably all good, but, it appears they hopped out of their trucks and tried to directly confront him or maybe even take him into custody.

5. If 4 is true, I consider this to be way outside of what is acceptable if they didn't witness can actual crime.

Those are what I think if you forced me to bet money.

But, I also am pretty much 100% certain there's shite I don't know yet that will impact the above.
