Except the fact that his killers were known racists

What stupid fricking hill to die on

there are 2 concepts that are only competing and irreconcilable online:

1. AA was doing some illegal stuff

2. AA was murdered without legal justification by racists

It's not an either/or scenario. Both can be (and likely are) true.

The OP posted a screenshot of something Time wrote about the story


Out of all the articles out there, a single title says he entered the house, and you're like "this title is telling the real story" instead of "this is an obvious error".

He got what he had coming to him, its just a shame that guy and his dad got collected up in his bull shite.



The dad and son did not see Auhmad Arbery commit a crime when they decided to chase him down and try to make a citizen's arrest. They have one video of Auhmad going inside a house under construction and not stealing anything. Many people do this. I have done this.

I also don't believe Auhmad Arbery was a jogger due to the shorts he wore, not wearing socks, and the long toenails.

Please explain why this man deserved to be murdered and why it's a shame that the father and son were caught up in this.

I'm only casually following this incident. How am I supposed to know it's an error? It's not my job to write headlines.

Read any article. Notice that it isn't body text suggesting a monumentally different take. Not jump on a single piece of conflicting info that has literally nothing backing it up.

I wasn't interested enough to read the article after I saw the headline and knew immediately that entering someone's home is a no no.

When I see headlines that say someone entered the home then my mind is already made up and I have no interest to continue reading.

Do you think headlines are some sort of holy words or something?

Since when is black a proper noun? And why is this color special when other colors are not?


Since lots of folks want to be sheep instead of lions. I refuse to fall in line with the woke crowd...
I will address a person who was born with a penis as a boy or man and a person who was born with a vagina, a girl or woman. And if they were to directly call me out on it, I will simply say "not sorry".
I will never capitalize the adjectives that refer to race.
I will never accept that the 2020 election was won by Joe Biden in a fair way.
I will never accept that Lt. Michael Byrd, of the Capitol Police Force, was justified in the murder of Ashli Babbitt.
I will never apologize or feel any guilt for being born white. I still haven't found my privilege.
I will never vote for a Democrat, even if it was my family.
I will never cease to speak my mind and last, but not least, I will never give up my guns!

I expect the headline to be the main subject and the article to be the additional details about the main subject.

Lol. Headlines are generally written by editors and are designed to get people to at least click the article. They are not, and never have been, one-sentence summarizations of the article.

I saw an interview with the KC mayor earlier and he actually said some really reasonable things. He started off pretty bad saying that any white on black shooting has a racial component, but then said that the violence in big cities is like the wild west, and that he's not going to turn everything political, "I'm not the mayor of San Francisco or a congressman from NYC". He said they are meeting with law enforcement, prosecutors, black leaders, clergy, etc about actually stopping the violence and intervening in young people's lives instead of turning it all into partisan politics. He was a far cry from the racist POS mayor of Chicago

The sad part is a bunch of guys are upvoting it. Evil people.

The openly racist chatter has really picked up lately, especially with regard to unfounded beliefs about IQ.
