well they could have done that anytime before he ever got to where that truck was. Their intent wasn't to shoot him. it was clear since they didn't when they drove by him. reasonable people have judgement, recognize their surrounding and look for a way out of the scenario. he had many choices.Except maybe he thought they would shoot him in the back? Is that possible? You're also not a 25-year old kid who thinks he is invincible. At 25, I would have fought ISIS by myself.well like I already said, I'd ignore them and run the other way. I'd avoid any confrontation where I have no advantage. It seems more reasonable to leave and seek cover or leave completely the other direction. just seems much more logical and healthy. also try and maintain myself aware of my surrounding so I never get into that situation.If someone on the street told you to freeze, would you? They are not police officers. This will go to trial for sure. Let's see what happens?I heard freeze. that's it. it was quite faint. still never saw them confront the black man. they did not approach him at all. he approached them.We don't hear the audio. We don't know what if any was the verbal exchange. That is the big issue. I am curious how this gets decided in the court system.The "hell" didn't start breaking loose until he decided to run at McMichael. No hell was breaking loose until that happened.All hell breaks loose in that he has two men he doesn't know confront him with a gun.
Nobody had done anything that would reasonably place Arbery in apprehension of IMMEDIATELY receiving a violent injury (see Georgia statute).
