Disappointing they gave in to misinformed (purposely by much of the press) mob rule. Based on what is known about the case, and the video, these guys adhered to the law. Much of the evidence is on their side so I doubt they'll be convicted. But if they are hopefully Trump pardons them. It's clear in the video that Arbery initiated the attack and while attempting to wrestle the firearm away, was shot either by accident or in self-defense. Let me ask you all, what do you think Arbery was planning on doing with the shotgun if he had snatched it away? https://newsone.com/3933484/citizens-arrest-law-defend-white-man-accused-of-killing-ahmaud-arbery/ Despite Barnhill distancing himself from the case, he wrote in his letter to the police that McMichael and his son had been legally carrying their weapons under Georgia law and because Arbery was a burglary suspect, they had solid firsthand probable cause to chase Arbery under the states citizens arrest law. Newsone's source is the New York Times article but NYT has a paywall that's why I'm using this link if you're wondering --- MAGA ... Copied to Clipboard! |
