Not sure if we’ve done this yet, couldn’t find a dupe. Black man was jogging, two white men try to stop and “question” him because he apparently looks like a burglary suspect, struggle ensues and black man is killed. Don’t know the whole story, but certainly looks like a bad shoot. Bonus because one perp is a former cop, and the DA recused himself because of former work relationship

Not sure what Georgia law allows, but chasing someone that runs by your house, yelling at them, and cutting them off several times before jumping out with a shotgun, doesn't seem wise.
Even if Georgia law somehow covers them, they are going to be bankrupt at best with a decent chance of going to prison. |

Brunswick is a 3rd world craphole. This is the same area where a guy shot a baby in a stroller a few years ago because the baby's mom rebuffed him.

Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing. Helen Keller

"was a good kid".....???? Yeah, right. And the family went on to say ..... "....said he should have been left alone to do what he needed to do." If he was mentally defective, what if he needed to kill someone? ![]() Oh, and I have been to New Brunswick and it is a "$h!tho!e" as the president would so aptly describe it. ![]() |

Unless it was my home and I saw him there, I'm not going give chase. Even then, I probably wouldn't.

Jogger sounds more like a perp, pulling a gun out of someone's hands does not help solidify "hey, I'm innocent."
Two locals sound a little too trigger happy and taken upon themselves to ZimZam the neighborhood. |

Interesting aside, seems the officer retired shortly after a debacle with the DA’s office bonding out a former officer, twice, and then killing his wife and another, with the perp also ending up dead

It doesn't read like he had anything on him when he ran past the old guy and his son, and you'd think if they found items in his possession after he was shot, it would be pretty clear he was the burglar. Either way, not enough info. |

"Truth Is Treason In An Empire Of Lies."

Here's my philosophy -
If there is time for me to call the cops (i.e. no one is in immediate danger), that's what I'm going to. If he gets away, so be it. The police are trained, authorized and paid to handle shit like this. I am not. Nor do I want the liability associated with it. If someone is an immediate threat, that's different. But I won't be pursuing or questioning suspects. |

All they saw him do that day was run by their house. Also, the unnamed 3rd party apparently filmed the shooting, so there is much more evidence to be released. |

View Quote They instigated an altercation without, they themselves, being attacked/harmed/robbed/burgled/otherwise having ill will done against them, or witnessing any crime against anyone else (not from anything I’ve read), and had no arrest or power to detain, which ended up in a death. At least from what I’ve read Edit: A skilled prosecutor would paint it as “two vigilantes attempting to detain a pedestrian, while having no police powers, with no evidence of a crime committed, which lead to altercation where the deceased was shot while trying to defend himself from two armed assailants, while he was unarmed.” |

I have done no further reading, nor do i know enough to judge the situation either way ... but just look at this beautiful wording to open the article ....
"Mr. Arbery, a 25-year-old black man, was chased by armed white residents of a South Georgia neighborhood. He was shot dead during a confrontation." I mean does that not make it sound like it's 1928 and 100 white men with torches are chasing down some poor innocent black person? |

I missed part of it due to clients, but they caught him red handed and he ran. This is the local sport for the community. If caught, run! If they catch you, fight! I wish they went back to the days of just shooting someone who ran. It would stop a lot of the mess around here. |

An unfortunate consequence of cases like this is that they get taken on by organizations that get cases pushed up to higher courts, and cause lawsuits that could possibly get stand your ground laws to be repealed. And, as much as I hate to say it, having grown up in the small town south, it’s still possible to be arrested, killed, or otherwise harmed from being black, or of the wrong social class, in the wrong part of town. This is the land where high school classes have private proms so black kids can’t come. As had been said before, though, there are parts of this story that are left out. |
