By Bria Bolden | May 23, 2020 at 3:00 PM EDT - Updated May 23 at 3:00 PM LIBERTY COUNTY, Ga. (WTOC) - Liberty County residents came together for a remembrance walk to honor Ahmaud Arbery and show support for his family.

“ We’re going to have not only people being held accountable," said Shonda Stevenson. "But also have other people out there speaking out and not be afraid to come out and talk about the injustice that we have, not just in Georgia, it’s in South Carolina, all of the world. "

Shonda Stevenson was just one of over 60 people who walked at James A. Brown Park in remembrance of Ahmaud Arbery.

Arbery’s death hits home for her because she has a 12-year-old son.

“ What if that was my child out exercising, his right to exercise, speak freely or just be outside," said Stevenson. “And now it’s hard, as soon as you open the door you’re wondering okay, am I going to be killed today? By somebody who thinks l i’m here to rob and this is my neighborhood.”

Any comment from her about the elderly couple in MD who were murdered in retaliation for this death?

So the negros are using Memorial Day to honor those that were killed in the hood for what ever reason?

Sounds about right

Just once, in an unfortunate way, I’d like one of these black “victims” to be a truly innocent person. Instead, we always find out it’s a thug. And they protest and riot and holler about a thug.

An innocent person, I can understand a bit. But stop celebrating and condoning the thugs.

Are they going to re-visit all the spots he trespassed in, committed crimes at, and the places he was questioned by police? Perhaps visit the store he tried to shoplift a TV from...re-visit his courtroom appearances...maybe have a ceremonial tasing of a family member who can stand in for him?

Here are a couple of examples. Justice was served in the first case, and I have not yet heard about a resolution to the second case.

Yes, there was some outrage over the woman shooting. But hardly much about them.

I did feel a bit sorry for her as I wonder if she really screwed up as in being disoriented and so on.

But both of these also involve police. We’ve had BLM rise up due to “civilian” confrontations. Starting with St. Trayvon.

I still think they should hold a Memorial Race where they have to run carrying a 65 inch TV, dodging, and jumping over various kinds and sizes of obstacles.

With Korean shop-owners on the roof with AK's.
