“They will be convicted”
Agreed. This one is a slam dunk. Never shoulda introduced a shotgun into that situation.
Less than murder 1 is my guess.
In reality this isn’t that much different than Rittenhouse except for race…and that’s a big except…a suspected burglar was attempting to disarm a person who was trying to detain him for the police…now three well meaning but stupid citizens will get life in prison…hell I’d rather be executed than go to lockdown carrying that baggage…why have court systems anymore…if the outcome is not satisfactory some parties will riot burn loot and cause more death by their dissatisfaction…
I only heard the testimony of Travis McMichael and it is not good. You cannot protect property with deadly force.
used to be able to shoot a man if he took your horse but that was life or death then.
But the more I hear about it - the long criminal record of the deceased, the burglaries in the neighborhood, the fact there was video of Arbury entering buildings that things were taken out of, the fact that in Georgia citizens are allowed to make “citizen's arrests” and the idea that Arbury grabbed the shotgun and wrestled with it before he was shot make the original story not as clear.
They should be. This isn’t a Rittenhouse case. They chased the guy down and then killed him. He may or may not have grabbed the weapon. If they hadn’t chased him down then that never would have happened. What they should have done is CALL THE POLICE. The guy wasn’t a threat to anyones’ life that I have heard. He MAY have been a thief and as annoying as it is, you shouldn’t really kill a thief for stealing stuff. Is stuff really worth someone’s life? If someone breaks into my house in the middle of the night I’m going to call the police and wait. If they start coming up the steps toward my family’s bedrooms then they are going to be shot in the face with my 12 gauge or .45. The difference here is stuff can be replaced and lives cannot. If its a choice of my family’s lives or the thief’s life I’m going to choose my family and defend them fully. If they don’t bother my family then they can have my TV or computer or even car. Hopefully the cops get there to deal with them before they escape, but I’m not going to kill them over stuff. Yeah, I get that they are scum and probably deserve to be shot, but its not going to be me that does that. Being offended because they entered my home doesn’t justify my killing them. I can just imagine the day when I have to face God and he asks, did you really kill that guy over a TV? when he and I already know the answer.
Not from justice, but from a desire to stop riots. This is not how the system is supposed to work, but this is all too often how it does work.
You betchya. These idiots recorded their own demise.
I’m afraid you’re right.
