A white man ran through a Florida neighborhood carrying a TV to prove that looking 'suspicious' wasn't an excuse for killing Ahmaud Arbery

When Richard Demsick learned of the killing of Ahmaud Arbery, he immediately thought about the privilege he had as a white man.

Arbery, a 25-year-old black man, was shot dead while jogging in February after being chased by two men — Gregory and Travis McMichael — who said he looked like a break-in suspect.

In a video that trended after Arbery's death, the McMichaels could be seen pursuing Arbery in their truck while Arbery ran. Travis McMichael left the truck holding a gun and, after a brief struggle, Arbery was dead. The McMichaels later told the police they believed Arbery resembled a man behind a string of residential break-ins. They were charged with murder last week.

Demsick, 34, a former pastor in Vero Beach, Florida, said he felt that it didn't matter what he wore or how "suspicious" he looked — his whiteness alone was enough to protect him from meeting the same fate as Arbery.

Now he should try it the other way. Carry a gun in the neighborhood and let someone in the neighborhood take his gun and murder him to prove he isn’t racist.

If it wasn’t 4K they’d kill him for sure

“He should have carried a TV through the ghetto. I think we all know what would have happened there.”

He wouldn’t even need to carry a TV.

My gaydar signal just went off.

Everyone wants in on the act.

Now we have gay preachers running around neighborhoods with TV's strapped to their back to prove white people suck. Very odd.

LOL, my dad made the mistake of buying a Chevy Vega. It was such an unreliable sh^tbox my 1968 Charger was cheaper to drive even though it used twice as much gas. When I worked for my dad I’d frequent the South Bronx, Bed-Sty and other such “exotic” neighborhoods. I’d leave the Vega unlocked, sometimes with the keys in the ignition and IT WOULD STILL BE THERE! Even the car thieves wouldn’t touch it.

This is on a level of stupid, so stupid in fact, that only a liberal could believe it.

Dunno. But he was running with a TV, so......

If you’re gonna steal a Yugo, you can smash out the window with a gold bar. You used to be able to grab one (a gold bar) at the Federal Reserve.
