The Georgia man who filmed the shooting death of unarmed black jogger Ahmaud Arbery says he’s “not proud” he did so — but he hopes it “helps in the end.”
William “Roddie” Bryan, whose cell phone footage of the Feb. 23 incident sparked national outrage, told Good Morning America he has “tons of regrets” over the incident.
“Yeah, I wish I hadn’t been there,” Bryan told the ABC-TV show Tuesday.

No. Not self defense. Two dumbasses who don’t like a black guy in the neighborhood.
WTF to say? I have nothing constructive except maybe justice would have worked out much better without this video.
That link.
Says Talcom X and Crump now consider Roddy as guilty as the McMichaels.
He is facing charges. Death threats too, I imagine.
You saw the video?
You saw the suspect run at, ASSAULT the guy holding the gun?
I rest my case.
Being black had nothing to do with this. Do you not know that "the Jogger" was trespassing in that same home before back in October? Do you not know he also was a known suspect to other robberies in that neighborhood?
Oh I didn’t read that far as I was focused primarily on the video and study of.
There’s a lot to be questioned in this happening.....and a lot we aren’t privy to. But I’m not comfortable about how it certainly looks!
I’m curious if there aren’t other videos or photos of him jogging other times and places?
“He was very very new to jogging, had so much potential, rumor was he was also going back to school and was going to finally quit hookers, drugs, meth, booze, stop beating his girlfriends and...”
There is!
A few days ago there was a post on how “the Jogger” was arrested several years ago when he carried a weapon on school property.
The article went on to say Arbery ran from the police at that time. Some astute Freerper commented that no. He wasn’t running. He was just jogging.
Freepers are so clever!
The video I watched didn’t have audio. Someone on FR provided the link to what was supposed to be a link to the video with audio, but it took me to Twitter, and there wasn’t anything relating to any video of the incident. There was only postings about the “lynching” of Arbery, and posts about organizing protests.
At first I thought you were referring to Native Americans.
I carry a loaded .45 most every day and I have a very good idea of what is and is not self defense.
If I pursue someone off of our property it’s hard to make a case for self defense.
There’s two videos on the internet that show the jogger walk up the street to the house, stop look around and then go inside. One shows a neighbor across the street come out into their front yard at which time Averby streaks out of the house and down the street.
FWIW, the night photos show another entry prior to the day Averby was killed. The one in daylight shows he wasn’t wearing socks while out for his daily “jog”. I’m waiting for the autopsy report to show if the soles of his feet had unusual calluses. If not, the man wasn’t jogging.
“...One shows a neighbor across the street come out into their front yard at which time Averby streaks out of the house and down the street....”

Yet another exhibit of people “seeing” what they want to see. There’s other video out there showing that he came out of the construction house and then Immediately went around that house (between it and the neighboring already built house), went out of sight toward the back and emerged about 4 or so minutes later.
Because the neighborhood was chasing a thief. That’s why he was out there at first.
No, it was a man trying to drive and film at the same time, he had no way of knowing Arbery was going to loop around the truck, and attack the guy with the shotgun.
Well, we all know how poor Travon was murdered while he was in the process of bouncing white Hispanic George Zimmerman’s head like a basketball on the concrete sidewalk.
And, we all know how “hands up don’t shoot” mike Brown was begging for his life when the evil white cop murdered him.
So, give Benjamin Crump a little time, and he’ll have a doozy of a story for the media to go wall to wall with. Someone should post a prize for anyone who can come up with the closest storyline to what Crump will push into the Public.
Disclaimer...(obligatory statement, any other position proves you are a bad person...like wearing a ribbon to prove that you care more): There can be question but that the poor jogger was hunted down and murdered by those racist crackers.
The crowd calls for blood. Who cares who's?
Timing is suspicious. Why didn’t he release it at the time of the incident?
First several times I watched that I thought the video guy was an idiot. Finally, I realized he was pointing the camera at the hammer that Arbery (allegedly) just dropped on the road. If you look at the road when he veers the camera to the right, you can see he has that dark object lying on the road in the center of his frame.
He was pointing the camera at the hammer as he drove up on it.
