Travis forfeited his legal right to self-defense. A few posts ago I linked the Georgia law that shows you can't provoke an attack and the use self-defense to kill someone.Just because Maude could claim fear of a deadly threat doesn't mean Travis was not allowed to defend himself from maudes suicide chargeis why Arbery was within his legal right to to resort to self-defense to fight for his life.
Which is why killing Arbery was murder
If I was sneaking around a garage and a black man walked (or ran) toward me with a shotgun and asked me what I was doing there I'm not allowed to hit him in the head with a brick
if I took off running and the black man chased me I still would not be allowed to turn around and hit him in the head with a brick
I would only be allowed to resort to deadly force if I had no reasonable means of Escape and he had broken the law by aiming the gun at me while I was running away from him
If he tripped and fell and I turned around and started running directly at him it would be perfectly reasonable for him to shoot me
The McMichaels literally stopped chasing Maude and held their ground calling the police when he came back at them and ran a distance longer than a football field in order to facilitate a violent attack upon them
It's already confirmed the Travis never aimed a shotgun at Arberry
in fact if he had a shotgun shouldered and aimed directly at maude I bet he would have never tried to charge him
If Maude actually believed that Travis was a deadly threat he never would have charged him... the only reason he charged him is because he believed Travis wouldn't shoot him
* I do enjoy toying with dense characters that try to defend criminal Behavior and I can only assume that you're a privileged 12 year old white child who bought into the BLM propaganda because if you are an actual homeowner that had something to defend there's no way you could be dumb enough to think it's a crime to pursue a man while holding a shotgun who had been criminally trespassing in your neighborhood
