Many an anti-gun nut wants to attack the evil black gun, the AR15. But anyone who has any common sense would rather have a random shot from an AR, than they would from a shotgun.

So while I think the shooter will be convicted of something, the guy is still dead. Had he just said "fine call the cops"and waited for them, he would still be alive.
In retrospect, I'd bet that he would choose to stand still 100 out of 100 times with some hindsight.

If no one had chased him down and confronted him, he’d be alive too.

And I bet that the two knuckleheads wouldn’t have chased him down 100 out of 100 times with some hindsight.

It's one thing when the cops do it, because you have some trust at least they won't just kill you. He has no assurance when a couple of retards are doing it.

He was provoked into that reaction. He clearly wanted no part of them. And they kept coming, even using their car to cut him off, and brandishing weapons.

I hope they think it was worth it, chasing him down over trespassing and stealing a hammer, while they're sitting in a prison cell. The old tub of lard may just kick the bucket in prison.
Whatever happens to those two makes no difference to the dead man who even if a thief, did not deserve to be killed, period.
However if the dead man had not attempted to pull a Jason Bourne maneuver, he would still be with us.

He is dead sure, and while I cannot predict the future, I think they will get both 10 years at least. For the fat old guy, that will be the last thing he sees, a max sec pen. For the younger dip, he will probably get out, to only have a ruined life afterwards.

So 3 ruined lives. And on balance, it's those two that made the most stupid decisions that day. Yeah that black guy paid with his life immediately, but they will slowly.

I agree, and they likely regret their stupidity at this very moment we are discussing this on the internet.

However stupid the fools were, the victim would much prefer to be alive, and in highlight would have gotten down on the ground spread eagle, and waited for the cops to arrive.
Sadly he chose the worst possible choice in dealing with those fools.

He then runs away a few steps. Sad but only in a SJW and ultra-race charged climate would they be charged with the guy’s death. Sad but here we are.
In the video the guy is not dressed like a jogger and didn't seem to be jogging. Naturally the media will paint him as a saint. What kind of "jogger" runs toward a man with a shotgun and starts beating on his head? That's just as stupid as running toward a police officer with a knife.

I grew up learning not to put myself in hazardous situations. At best Mr. Arbery wasn't taught that lesson.

I for sure never checked out houses under construction. A jogger could be hiding there.

Except for the fact that the home owner said nothing was stolen, and no mention of a hammer is in the police report.

Wait, you mentioned the guy was black, so according to a previous poster, that makes you a racist redneck.

Yes, 3 ruined lives, but the two aggressors will continue to breath, eat, and maybe enjoy more of their life, where as the poor victim will never experience another moment.

Hopefully he is presently floating in a hammock, sipping his favorite beverage, thinking about seeing his grandparents tomorrow.
