Travis McMichael sentenced to life without parole plus 20 years for assault.
Most jurors are usually chosen for their lack of intelligence and reasoning capabilities.
so... imagine YOU were jogging and several blacks chased you down with their cars and cut you off and then pulled out guns on you.
Would you just bow down? or try to fight for your life?
They POSTED ON FACEBOOK??? Are you effing kidding me? [facepalm]
Since Armed Robbery was not some “innocent jogger” as the gaslighting media implied, your scenario rings false.
“Yes, when you brandish a firearm you shouldn’t assume the guy you are pointing it as won’t fight to the death.”

What - you mean to say a black guy being hunted and chased down by some white mental throwbacks riding shotgun in the bed of a pickup in the deep south shouldn’t just accept his sad fate when one of the geniuses decides to charge him with a leveled loaded shotgun? Crazy talk!!
My first question is, "what the h3ll am I doing in a black neighborhood? "
Now i've been the only white guy in a black neighborhood many times, but I was with my black friends and they had my back. I would not have dared try to go into some of these places without them. They did have my back on a couple of occasions when someone was trying to start some sh*t with this honkey, but my friends were tough and nobody would mess with them. They were well respected in this community.
So if I was so stupid as to be in a black neighboorhood (and I don't mean a middle class black neighborhood. Those people are decent and wonderful and will not cause you any troubles, i'm talking about a poor black neighborhood frequented by the drugies and the gang bangers.) And they pulled a gun on me I would start running and screaming for help.
You know the one thing I would absolutely *NEVER* do? I would never run up at a man holding a gun and punch him in the face while attempting to wrest the gun away from him.
No sane person would do this. Only a psychotic drugged up fool would do this.
Would you just bow down? or try to fight for your life?
I would run. I would jump over fences. I would run out into the middle of traffic while screaming for help. I would try to go into people's houses while pleading with them to help me.
Fight? Are you nuts? That's suicide.
And against a *SHOTGUN*? Are you double nuts? That is double suicide.
Soviet courts and Soviet juries were always certain of their verdicts, but they never had anything to do with justice.
I didn’t hear about this. Where did this crazy case happen? I thought we were talking about the Arbery case?
Not in this case.
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. If I'm stupid enough to go all vigilante and try and accost someone with no evidence of wrongdoing, threatening to blow their head off, then I suppose I would deserve what I got.
Absolutely in this case. This is the worst miscarriage of justice since Dereck Chauvin was convicted of being present when George Floyd overdosed on Fentynal.
Being around people who are committing suicide gives the lying legal system an excuse to make an example out of people for political purposes.
Our modern court system is garbage. If it ever comes to an accurate conclusion, it is usually an accident. It's amazing that Kyle Rittenhouse didn't go to prison for shooting perverts who attacked him.
Lucky break for him.
Absolute nonsense.
Probably not.
Only on an issue when one is dealing with a member of the political football class. Had they shot a white guy, nobody would have given the slightest sh*t. This was not about what they did, it was about the sort of fellow they did it too.
But silly me, I don't believe the legal system and the political system should play favorites, but should instead apply objective standards to all cases.
On a related topic, I was greatly amused when I heard the aborigines set fire to that courthouse in Australia while all the cops ran away from them for fear of harming one of them.
They beat up and arrested the white Australians protesting vaccine mandates, but the Aborigines are untouchable there.
Hilarious. :)
Travis McMichael stupidly posted a lot of crap on Facebook. I don’t believe the other two did the same thing but I won’t rule it out.
McMichael posted things prior to the confrontation with Arbery that spoke to McMichael wanting to seek out a confrontation.
“Arm up” was posted on a group in response to neighborhood car burglaries but he also is reported to have posted much more inflammatory thoughts on his page. The guy is a hothead and he wanted to do something and that likely went to the charge of murder being laid on because there was arguably prior intent.
I still think the murder charge/conviction is too much and will be tossed on appeal.
You wish to believe what you wish to believe. I assure you that most of the people of whom I have known over the years would be far more likely to confront a white criminal than they would a black criminal, because a black criminal adds an entire level of difficulty in confronting them.
If these guys did anything stupid, it was treating a black criminal as an equal to a white criminal. They should have known that the entire rest of the world would crucify them for the slightest thing, while that same world would not care at all if they did it to a white criminal.
This was made to be about race, and those guys were foolish to think the rest of the world has gotten past it.
No, everything is still warped into race so long as it serves the power in Washington DC.
You wish to believe what you wish to believe.
Race was the ONLY issue here, and in most of these shamefully media-driven cases. The left needs the narrative that all Blacks should fear Whitey (and the Po-Po), that they will never get justice, and that they must ALWAYS vote for the Plantation Demonrat Party or, as the pedophile child molester in the White House says, “They’re not Black !”
DiogenesLamp is 100% correct here.
I wish to believe in objective reality, and I do, so you are correct, but not in the way you were thinking.
