CNN - Yes, I'll have a foot sandwich, pickles, no mayo. The usual, charge it to my account
LOL, man, the Clinton News Network is the most irresponsible diservice to this country; its gotta be funded by China like the W.H.O. Both entities equally destructive to our country.
Watch for yourself. Do yall make it a habbit to tresspass/break and enter on your 3AM jogs 10 miles away from your own residence???
If he's so interested in construction, why is he so invested in the tools and non construction related materials, he doesnt look at joints or beams once! LOL, I know why!
Also, media and socialist dems, stop using highschool and middle school photos of your grown adult thugs.
Can't someone be curious? Oh, I forgot, if a person looks at a construction site, we can chase them down and kill them with our shotguns.
According to the police report: "McMichael stated there have been several Break-ins in the neighborhood and further the suspect was caught on surveillance video. McMichael stated he was in his front yard and saw the suspect from the break-ins "hauling ass"...."
That certainly implies McMichael knew there was video of someone in the house and that he had seen it.
And I am still waiting for the justification of chasing Arbery with loaded shot guns.
The necks later claimed but not initially that they knew Arbery. Not that that in anyway justified their response. It does however, absolutely and positively means that they could have simply told the police who the person was in the house and let the law do what it does.
For some ''reason'', the media is limiting reported crimes to this year, as in Jan. 1, and not the additional incidents that were clustered around this date, but were last year as in December.
The media is determined to drive its usual narrative. Black man hunted down and killed by GA rednecks while out innocently jogging.
The reason Arbery ran is obvious as is the reason he want after the guy with the gun; he didn't want to get caught. Bad and dumb move to make a move and try to take the guy with the gun down. And, if he had gotten a hold of the gun, would he have used it on the defendant?
Get caught with what? He was empty handed. Stop justifying what these men did to him.
When you wave a gun around at a complete stranger, he does not know your intentions, and he may fear for his life. See how it works, if Arbery had gotten the gun, you're suggesting that he may have used it. This is why introducing a gun into a situation like this is like lighting the fuse on a stick of dynamite.

As I said before I did drywall in the 80's. It was common to have Looky Loos checking out houses under construction.
The house I live in now I didn't build. I had it built. It's in a development. We walked through other houses at various stages of construction. I know that people walked through ours. You get ideas for your house. Over here everything is tiled. You get ideas for tile schemes, patterns etc. It's common here and in the states to look at homes under construction.
What is not at all common is what those red necks did, or how the police barely went through the motions of an investigation the first time.
To the bolded - maybe currently, as in, the last 20 years or so, this is less common. I think black people in small southern towns would tell you this is EXTREMELY common that whites with law enforcement connections can shoot black people, and police departments roll their eyes and look away. Especially if the black people have felony records as in this case.
I'm saying this, as a woman who spent my younger years in a small southern town and have eyes in my head.

This entire thread of yours, attempting to paint Arbery as a criminal, was just derailed moments ago.
Larry English, the man who owns the house in the video posted in your OP, just appeared on Cuomo Prime Time.
English said that nothing was stolen from the house, which is why he didn't call the police.
According to the police report: "McMichael stated there have been several Break-ins in the neighborhood and further the suspect was caught on surveillance video. McMichael stated he was in his front yard and saw the suspect from the break-ins "hauling ass"...."
That certainly implies McMichael knew there was video of someone in the house and that he had seen it.
Nothing about that particular house was mentioned. That is conjecture on your part. The video we are talking about, the homeowner had not even seen until Arbery was dead. He saw it 20 mins after it was filmed.
What you would or wouldn't do doesnt change the law. Its trespassing and burglarizing for a reason.
But it isn't burglarizing since no one can prove intent and he did not damage or steal anything. At worst it is trespass, which is a misdemeanor. And the McMichaels did not claim to have seen him even trespassing so they weren't legally allowed to make a citizens arrest under the GA law.

I agree with you. Thus my Lil Rastus comparison. But what isn't a norm in any sane country sane town in the USA is to do what the McMichaels did.
There is a reason that blacks don't trust the police.
My son was pulled over in a truck we built together. A Toyota with a 6 inch frame lift. Big nasty Chevy 350 engine. Loud as hell. We built it as a project to teach him mechanics and to weld.
The cops made him exit the vehicle. Made him spreadem, searched him, the entire deal. Their alleged reason for the pull over was the window tint. It was dark, but legal and it was BS. Then they said they saw him leave his lane a couple times. BS.
They made him stand with his hands on the tailgate for over twenty minutes while they pretended to be cops. He heard one of the cops joke that now he had seen everything, a N&^^er driving a monster truck.
I had our local cop inquire and the same cop in question made the same joke to our guy... No tickets were issued. After all he had done nothing wrong. Fortunately I had taught him early on how everyone must behave during a stop, but especially young black males.
My son still has that Truck and now he owns the house his pops built back in 98. I am not black and I am not a liberal. I do get some what the issues are that blacks have with cops and red necks.
