a man (black) was murdered in broad daylight in georgia. there is video evidence. yet no one charged the killers (white) until the video was leaked to the public.

https://www.bostonglobe.com/2020/05/06/nation/black-man-was-lynched-this-year-his-killers-have-yet-be-charged/

how broken and corrupt does a justice system have to be that something so egregious, something so disgustingly wrong would have remained unpunished (and still might), had the evidence not been made public?





Gosh darnit! Best we round up the posse, and w/o all the evidence, hang those racist white boys from the oak tree in the town square.

You folks realize you're doing the same thing that you are accusing the McMichaels of, right?



/e Then again, maybe you don't realize it. :/

That's not what happened though. A couple of armed dudes blocked off his escape path and tried to capture him. If I'm in his shoes, I'm assuming that someone is trying to kidnap me for ransom, kill me, etc. At that point, I don't know what I'd do tbh. I'd probably think I'm a dead man anyway and I'd fight.

As for your best case scenario, I'd imagine that they wouldn't be charged for murder but they'd get several years in prison. Either way, it won't end well for those two if the facts stand where they do now.


Afaik current advice for getting kidnapped/assaulted is to not let yourself be moved to another place. That drastically increases the odds of you not making it out alive.

Dude got murdered for being black.

This is a prime example of the dark side of the 2nd Amendment. And I'll remain sceptical towards the pro-gun movement until they proactively promote private gun ownership of those most heavily affected by both government tyranny and the threat of violence: minorities and those in low-income neighbourhoods.

Its really a form of the "he threw himself on my knife three times" defense, except we've got it on video and know its true. Imagine this same case without the video. Would anyone believe a story that the guy just went completely insane and charged a man with a gun and kept fighting even as he was blasted multiple times? But the video and autopsy don't lie.

Was there any blood test for drugs in this case? Usually when you hear about people refusing to go down they're on PCP or something

Even by bad decision making criminal standards, continuing to fight suicidally after you first get blasted through the hand (using your stump to wallop him) and then still fighting madly after having half your chest blasted into a hole- thats insane. Thats like zombies immune to everything but headshots. It points to serious mental illness and/or drugs. Even a normal person who made the bad decision to rush a guy with a gun wouldn't keep punching away after he gets blasted
