I have it when I hear while males say, there is no racism in this country, not in my experience. You are not black, you don't know, I don't know. I think there is much more academic studies that are coming out that are exposing the truth based on proper research, not just someone's gut feeling.
I mean it's bullshit who some people sprout off their expertise and that haven't got a fucking clue about what they are talking about.
I am mad with Barack Obama, because I went back and showed my daughter the night he won, and the speeches and this hope for the future lark. Tell that to George Floyd and his family. The only future that changed was his family. I was in class the other day with an USA student who said that's not true. Well something's amiss when a man can have such arrogance to murder a man when he knows he is being filmed. The whole world showed that, it's not a minority.

Our country is full of it, particularly in the southern states and it's more prevalent in rural areas rather than in urban areas, but generally speaking, it's everywhere here.

I don't think that's any worse than people saying racism is everywhere. Both sides are generally full of shit most of the time, which is why I hate partisan politics.

Father & son--life without the possibility of parole
Their friend--life with the possibility of parole.
Good, they are all paying a very heavy price for their fuckery.

You just cannot go around killing people unless you are an illegal immigrant then maybe you may get deported.

Amazing how you two can try to turn a thread into something else.
These guys were free for 72 days after killing Ahmed.
If you want to talk about other murders and injustices then start another thread.

Not only that, but the District Attorney was arrested & booked for violation of oath and obstruction in this case. She has been accused of using her position to delay the arrests of the father & son who murdered Ahmaud. The father worked for her as an investigator. Georgia's Attorney General is the one who sought the indictment of her. She is facing 1-5 years if she is convicted of violating her oath of office.

Skip ahead to 10:00. These brothers KNOW what the deal is, because they live it, 24/7. Pasty, white liberals *think* they know something, because they watch highly politicized "news" programming.
Watch these brothers and learn something.

Those brothers live next door to the Ahmaud Arberys and George Floyds of the world. If that doesn't matter to you, maybe it's time to stop pretending you care about black folk?

I think the convictions will be overturned on appeal. Arbery was on video casing out a construction site -- 5 times. The McMichaels recognized him from the video.
This video shows Arbery running to the shooter and trying to take his gun. The gun goes off as they grapple. How is that murder???

I don't think I would care much if somebody else's construction site was getting eyeballed. i might follow the person and see where they go but unless it was a neighbor would not shoot the fucker. It's not like he was robbing a store. He should have never gone to the site and snooped around but thats not worthy of a death sentence.
Thats a case when you can shoot the legs out though. Not center mass.

Put your glasses on, they were GRAPPLING when the gun was fired, and that site WAS in their neighborhood.
Arbery ran to the younger man and tried to get his gun. THAT is why he died.

I used to do fucked up shit like Arbery was doing when I was a kid. I know for a fact that some of my neighbors wanted me dead, and I fully understand why. I thought it was joke robbing people. It isn't. It stresses the hell out of you.

The first shot fired WENT THROUGH ARBERY'S PALM. The defendants were open-carrying in full compliance with Georgia law. That's self-defense.
