Current Affairs The " another shooting in America " thread

[Prevenger17]

why are you so obsessed with race?
i`m questioning the character of Arbery carrying an illegal weapon, not staying out of the clutches of the law etc you only see fit to see the race aspect. why

I actually didn't mention his race once until very recently when it became clear what you are. Again, why is a firearm possession charge from 7 years prior to this relevant, and why is a shoplifting charge relevant to you?

And I need to ask again, but in light of these things you brought up, would you think it was relevant if he was arrested numerous times and had a drunk and disorderly charge? Answer the question pls

 

[Oddball]

Aye, just an innocent bunch of lads out with their guns? You're an absolute slimeball

if i promise to use proper "quotation" marks will you think better of me?

 

[Prevenger17]

stop getting so hysterical, Georgia is an open carry State so its quite a normal thing to do

The subject of our discussion is a young man who got needlessly murdered in the middle of the street. I'm not "hysterical" and I'm not in some weird point scoring competition, but I do feel for this young man and his family because I'm a normal person. Happy to admit that.

You're a racist dweeb, so you possibly don't understand?

Aye mate, I think you should defo lean into being an illiterate moron trying to blame a black man out jogging for being shot by 3 blokes. It's the right call here

1/ i already know what you are.
2/ if it was relevant i would mention it because it would be relevant or maybe phrase the question differently.
its about character not race - if the lads running around a school with a gun when he shouldn`t even be there then that reflects on him as a person, not his race.

7 years prior to him getting gunned down in the street? Why was it relevant to you? For exactly the same reason him "lunging" at the gun was relevant to you. You want any reason to blame this young man for getting murdered in the middle of the street. Because he's black.

And again I ask, if he was arrested numerous times and charged with being drunk and disorderly previois to this incident, would you have brought it up?

you`re not bothered about Arbery being an innocent young man at all, its because he`s black that you have any interest in this case at all. the thousands of black on black murders gets barely a mention, why?

 

[Prevenger17]

you`re not bothered about Arbery being an innocent young man at all

I don't even care if he's "innocent" or not. I saw a disturbing video of an unarmed man getting murdered and these are my thoughts on it. And most normal people who watch the same video woulvant, d feel similar to me. You're bringing up a gun charge from 7 years prior, which is completely irrelevant, and I'm wondering why

 

[PhilM]

Had Arbery committed a burglary or was there valid evidence to justify suspicion that he had? Was he a threat to life? Was he carrying a weapon at the time?

The answer is a resounding no to each question, so for me there's pretty much no way you can justify the response from the perpetrators.

 

[Moomin]

With me being MIA for a while and lazy not to read back fully but didn"t the people who murdered Arbery get found guilty of murder and it being a hate crime???

Yes but according to our resident detective @Oddball , we need to consider why the victim didn’t run to a nearby drive when cornered, why they weren’t familiar to the residents as they run through the area all the time and why they walked through a building site. All valid questions when investigating why 3 men chased an unarmed man and killed him.

If only the prosecution, defence and jury had considered such elements of the case and when the jury found the bellends guilty.

Oh… they did.

 

[Prevenger17]

And again I ask, if he was arrested numerous times and charged with being drunk and disorderly previous to this incident, would you have brought it up?

Weird how Oddball won't answer this simple question ???

The clue is in the name.

Utterly irrelevant to the case. It was 7 years prior to him being murdered. You brought it up and we all know why you did, just the same way we know why you didn't bring up the criminal history of Richard Lee Richards

Funnily enough, Richard Lee Richards had a long criminal history prior to his death, including a jail sentence for attempted murder. So we could also play the blame game there as well.

Violent criminal history. Armed. Not following police instructions. His own fault then, right?

We could play that victim blaming game there easily enough, if only it had been reported on, instead of being covered up as part of the elite conspiracy.
