About damn time. Its amazing that the only reason these 2 ever got arrested is because a video was leaked to the public. Otherwise they would have clean got away with it.

You would tho. A white dude sniffing around vacant houses in a black neighborhood is assumed to be a police officer.
Police officers get gunned down all the time. It's happened a few times during this pandemic in Louisiana.
But I guess you are right. Now if I was a black guy snooping around a black neighborhood.

There has been more uproar about this than there was about a black man gunning down two BR police officers 2 weeks ago.

Y’all remember about ten years ago that black guy with an uzi tried to kidnap/murder that woman. It was caught on camera really good. New Orleans has tooo many murders I can’t even find it.

Yeap. I've just started noticing the, this is why black men are scared everytime they leave the house.
But, most homicides are same race. You kill who you know. And the facts are more whites are killed by blacks and that number actually increased under Obama, but no memes or other bigoted speach was made about that.

White on white murders are waaaaay more than blacks killing whites. An blacks murdering whites actually decreased for the first 5 years under Obama until 2013 when it starting increasing to a high in 2017 (which was definitely not under Obama).

And if this dude doesn't look like the kinda guy who'd do this, I don't know what to tell ya.
My 1st thought looking at the picture. Pretty much what I had drawn up in my head.
Haven’t seen it mentioned but did Travis live at his parents? Would like to know more about his story, job etc.

quote:Wow at that statement from that report.
Arbery's mental health records & prior convictions help explain his apparent aggressive nature and his possible thought pattern to attack an armed man.
It definitely wasn't the fact that he was being followed around by 2 guys with guns that may have been made him "attack"

quote:Ah yea, are you arguing that THIS is a good reason for 2 dudes with guns to follow a guy around for a while?
One caller told dispatchers that there was someone looking around a property under construction

This whole thing is a reactionary joke.
Guy was a felon who had a gun charge. A 911 call was put in by another neighbor. The guy who ran him down was a retired 30 year investigator.
They are bending to public pressure, no conviction. They'll be released once people forget.

It's a bit disconcerting how they weren't arrested because the police saw the video. They were arrested because the public saw the video. We shouldn't forget that

Laughable. It's easier for kids today to believe that a felon is innocent and a longtime public servant is a devil. If that's the mindset there's just nothing left to say. A conspiracy theory of Good old boys covering up murders for years is more plausible than someone guilty of committing multiple crimes was simply committing another.
Just for my own edification, Which one of you in your mid-twenties would try to start a fist fight with a 60-year-old guy with a gun, instead of having some dialogue?

Pretty incredible how much public outcry actually works. Over two months of them having this video and nothing. The public gets ahold of it and arrests are made within days.
Thank you LeBron

you believe someone who served in Law Enforcement for 30 years.... suddenly becomes a cold blooded murdering racist. How he hid his true tendencies w/o multiple murders for 30 years, We may never know!
Wait, is this seriously your defense.
"Your honor, my client has never killed anyone before. That means he cannot possibly be guilty of this murder. Even though you have him caught on camera, he has never killed anyone before, therefore he is innocent. The defense rests. "

Without camera footage, nothing would have come of this. Who knows what he has done that didn't happen to be videoed.

I'm really happy the video emerged. I don't know how this plays out eventually, but it would have been awful if this just got ignored because the video never leaked.
Whatever happens, it's good for people to see this incident for themselves. It staggers me the statement from the first DA, which seems to fault Arbery's mom for putting so much pressure on him to charge the McMichaels.
I have no side in this and that video was shocking to me. I can only imagine what it's like for Arbery's mom to see the last moments of her son's life played out like that.

So what was the motive? If it was racism why murder just one when you can, say, take a page from those 2 guys in DC a few years back who sniped people from their car

Wow. Just wow. Had to jump in your time machine and go back 20 years to dig that one up.

Dude he’s saying there are more black on white murders than white on black. Work on your reading comprehension. I’m sure this little zinger you thought you had felt good the past 12 hours though.
