The “jogger” ceased being a “jogger” when he decided to attack one of two armed men.

He then became a Darwin Award recipient.

It doesn’t matter. There’s no reason why the McMichaels should have confronted Arbery even if he’s guilty of everything they suspect him of. They’re not cops.

They didn’t personally witness him commit any crime. The risk that they would misidentify an innocent man as a criminal was perfectly foreseeable, especially to a former cop like McMichael.

They should have called the sheriff, who could have stopped Arbery lawfully and used the surveillance video mentioned in the police report to determine if he really was the burglary suspect they’re looking for.

Why didn’t they do that?

If they can get away with this then the “citizen’s arrest” statute is license for legalized vigilantism.

This is *NOT* comparable with the Trayvon Martin or Michael Brown case.

Everyone should repeat this to everyone we know to counter the MSM false narrative.

Yup. Simple and to the point.
