Keep those rednecks on the stand long enough and they will just admit "we wanted us a spook"

Is anyone else disturbed by the fact that the McMichaels appear to actually believe they had the power to detain citizens as though they were law enforcement? Up to and including the power to use deadly force for failure to comply?

Do they view persons of color as citizens? I think that is the defining point here.

If those racist murderers get off can't say I'd be able to blame the rage that will result

I think the fact that he admitted Arbery never threatened him and that he never claimed he was trying to arrest Arbery at the time will be problematic admissions.

Really the testimony seems damning for a citizen's arrest defense and thus guilty for aggravated assault & felony murder. The events would seem consistent with a self-defense claim against a malice murder charge, although I am not fully plugged in to the supporting evidence. In GA, both felony and malice murder carry a minimum of life sentence, though.

The judge has now essentially ruled the citizen’s arrest defense invalid.


Apparently HumblePie got his law degree from the wrong YouTube channel.

Shot him 3 times point blank with a shotgun?

All because he "thought" he was trying to break into some developing property? That's all it takes for private citizens to dispatch an execution on the spot now?

Please let that asteroid slam into this planet ASAP.

Oh, and in this scenario, Arbury should've just rolled with it and not allowed any self defense either. Cuz you know, totally not racist reasons.

This country is so broken in this way, it's mind boggling how we think we're better than everyone else.

It's the mentality from the Jim Crow days. The white man on the streets is in charge and those ni**ers must cede to their authority. Yet some people claim white privilege doesn't exist.

More racism from the defense attorneys. He first bitched about ni**er preachers showing up in the court. After that a few phone calls were made and more ni**ers showed up to have a prayer rally outside the court to which the same lawyer responded.
Ahmaud Arbery’s murder suspects subjected to ‘public lynching’ by ‘left woke mob,’ attorney says - al.com

My use of the word ni**er was paraphrased because we all that's what he meant and what he really wanted to say.
He is trying to manufacture a mistrial because he knows his clients are screwed by their own testimony.

It's looking like the most important part of this whole ideal is addressing the system and people in it who almost let these guys walk away without even an arrest.

What I've been talking about in this thread had been about who citizen's arrest law works in GA. Which basically has turned out exactly how I described it so far according to the court finding in this case. Most of the people around here don't like the idea of citizen's arrests being a legal thing one can do. Most don't even like the fact that private citizen's can own guns in this thread as well. Lastly, I was pointing out where the media narrative as I have known it has been wrong on this case so far. Turns out with how the trial has been proceeding that they are even more wrong than I thought. Especially statements now made by Rodney on the stand.

For a recap of evidence so far presented at trial. Turns out that Ahmaud had been casing places. Had been thought to have stolen stuff. Police had also thought he had. Been called upon to 911 dozens of times without being caught for months. Had been seen in various neighborhood cameras casing other places including the home of a single mom at night. That the police had told the neighbors to arm themselves because the police believed Ahmaud was doing this while armed. Frankly the evidence presented this week isn't looking good for the prosecution at all in this case. The defense still has the hurdle of the McMichael's having a "reasonable knowledge" a felony had been committed by Ahmaud to raise their guns at him first in an attempt to stop him though Up until this past week I wasn't so sure the defense could convince the jury of that. Now it is looking like it may very well happen.
Bolded. So your prediction is...?

Too bad goon squad member couldn't "think" about that BEFORE he left the truck brandishing a fucking loaded shotgun. Rot in hell racist prick.
What a piece of filth. I'm sure some Nazis were thinking about their kids when protecting them from Jews.

This POS deserves to rot and die in jail.
