You try that. I've done it for 59 years.Without an instigating incident there is no responseNo, the responsibility lies with those 2 white men. They had no business doing what they did.You have several other choices. One would be not putting yourself into a jackpot to begin with but then that would involve too much personal responsibility.Look, this isn't hard people. The video shows everything. The guy standing in the back of the truck shot first. The jogger was probably confused and possibly didn't even know there was a second shooter. We will never know. But, if it were me, and I only saw one guy with a shotgun standing in the next lane, thinking he already shot, you damn right I would go after him and his gun. At that point, I have no other choice.Wrong. If someone tries to take a gun out of my hand they are just as likely attacking me as they are taking preemptive action to defend themselvesBoss, try and see something beyond what your lying eyes are showing you. The black guy ran around the vehicle because the shooter hopped out of the truck, so the jogger tried to get the gun before he got shot. He clearly was not attacking the man. He was trying to get the gun out of his hands. You can't see that?Then who made the calls? The 3rd guy who was recording with his phone? Are you suggesting that black burglary suspect 1 wasn’t the same guy who attacked the man with the shotgun?Not making anything up. It’s in the 9-1-1 calls.
Neither of the McMichaels were the one who called about an intruder at the construction site as you had said. It was a DIFFERENT caller to 911:
Ahmaud Arbery killing: man called 911 to report 'black male running' prior to shooting
Recordings of 911 calls obtained by the Guardian provide details on the moments before a man was shot while jogging in Georgiawww.theguardian.com
In one call, made at 1.14pm, the dispatcher asks for the address and the reason for the call. An unidentified man’s voice can be heard responding, “Uh, I’m out here at Satilla Shores. There’s a black male running down the street,” in an apparent reference Arbery.
In an earlier call at 1.08pm, a different unidentified caller reports “a guy in a house right now, a house under construction”. The dispatcher asks if the man is breaking into the property, to which the caller responds: “No, it’s all open, it’s under construction.”
Sounds like there were several people out looking for the burglar suspect.
But you think they were all out just to lynch a random innocent black guy?
Try personal responsibility for 24 hours and see if you like it or melt. You probably won’t get shot.
