I mean it is Georgia, he was black and they were white and it was a middle class neighborhood, thus he was by his very existence threatening to them.

Oh god I worked at the sawmill in this town for a short while. I knew there were a lot of dangerous rednecks around but never expected them to be this crazy.

If the story is as it sounds, they should just be discarded.

Intententionally murdering an innocent is the end. Don't pass go. It's over. Dispose

So the guy who was killed was jogging in the area neighboring his own neighborhood. He was a black man wearing a white shirt same as a guy who had been seen in a partially constructed house earlier that day (never mind that people will sometimes check out the inside of construction homes before they are enclosed, i'm guilty of doing that myself on walks occasionally, i'm white so I don't get killed over it). This guy saw him, grabbed his son, a .357 and a shotgun, got in their truck and chased the guy down. It ended with the jogging black man dead.

They just feared for their life and stood their ground! Better safe than sorry! He shouldnt have been running and or alive. Cant blame them because he chose to exist.

Funnily, when I go jogging I occasionally daydream about scenarios where people are chasing me down because I'm black. Then I have to escape by running faster or somehow fighting them.

Youre right. The detail being that the two men who went looking for trouble killed someone.

Nope. Those are the available details right now since the investigation is ongoing. The two guys claim there was a struggle over the shotgun. So the likeliest scenario is that they chased him down, held him at gunpoint, and he feared for his life either tried to take it or push it away. Either way, two guys who had no business doing so chased down a man who was jogging and a guy ended up dead.

A black man was jogging as he had been doing every day since he graduated high school. Two white guys chased after him with a shotgun and killed him after a struggle today. That's all the details.

I fucking hate this shit. If you have some detail that really blows their argument out of the water, then just fucking say it. Quit it with the stupid ass games.

Is TC doing a shitty job of making their argument? Absolutely. But youre just making yourself look like an ass. Quit trying to be clever and make your fucking point.

How? A man minding his own business was chased down by two armed men and killed after a struggle...what about the argument is shitty? Do you think the man who was killed was incorrect to fight back? Do you think the men who followed him were in the right?

why would anyone do this?
It's interesting to check out the layout of a framed up house and try to figure what rooms will be what. I've also done some carpentry work so that aspect of it interests me as well. I'm not talking a house with walls, windows or doors, just framing. Is it weird, yeah probably.

It's also probably a leftover thing from when I was a kid living in a neighborhood that was under construction, we were poor and we'd play in the gravel piles in the basements of houses like that.

Not a damn thing. The DA did everything but give them a pat on the back. Absolutely no charges were filed. This is America.

So far, this is definitely one of the most clear cut stories I've seen: two white guys think the black guy was a criminal they saw before. They watch him and report him. All fine.
Then they follow him (potential crime is now over. People are not in danger. This is not fine to follow).
*struggle/altercation*
*shot the black guy*

So what I'm guessing is he had like some crazy ass karate moves or osmething, pocket sand and blinded the kid? What's the story they're gonna go with to justify hunting a black guy to shoot him?

And that is basically the crux of the matter. They didnt witness him commit a crime, so any claim they have involving a citizens arrest goes out the window. Whether or not the person was in fact a criminal who had just committed a crime (which they say video exists proving that) is completely immaterial.

Long story short, these guys are fucked. Clearly they detained him at gunpoint, which is a felony because citizens arrest doesnt apply. Somebody died in the commission of said felony. Felony murder rule.

At least thats how it should play out. People really need to cool it with the Wyatt Earp shit.
