This guy had many run ins with the law apparently.

Doesn't matter with regard to civilians attempting to stage an illegal citizens arrest.


In fact, the more Arbery is demonized--and the fact that the police and McMicaels knew it, the more wrong it clearly was for McMicheals as a civilian to bring two other civilians in on an attempted citizens arrest.

Just like Conservatives, any past actions determine your worthiness to live your life. If you stand up for your rights when they don't think you should, then you deserve what's coming to you. I notice how the only times you guys say someone needs to surrender the right to self-defense is when it's unarmed Black men exercising it.
Why don’t you post up the facts that support the claim that he was running in the neighborhood prior to leaving the house.

He was killed for attacking Travis, not shoplifting.

Waaaait... this is a new angle. What point are you getting at? That it's speculation that he was actually running for leisure, and not... "casing the joint?"

But, we all know there are times they ask for instruction and they will simply have the law pointed out to them and be left to their own devices to apply it.

I guess you never saw the times I've said they will be told to follow reason and common sense. Clearly the reasoning ability and common sense will vary in any group of people. You for example would make a very bad juror since you hold common sense in such disdain.

I have also said words matter. But, unlike you I understand that words can have many different meanings and usages.
And in spite of all that, You still do what I described in my post that you’ve responded to.

If not that may explain why you state somethings then forget you said it or have a problem with language.
You can either support your position, or not.

It’s pretty clear that you can’t.
