  1. I was so depressed last night thinking of the Virus, economy, jobs, Social Security, my savings, etc, I called the Suicide Hot Line. I got a Call Center in Afghanistan, and when I told them I was suicidal, they got all excited and ask if I could drive a truck.

  2. The old man apparently let his peace officer certifications fall 8 years behind while he was an investigator for the DA’s office. Make no mistake.... these guys are clowns, too.

  6. There is very "little" concerning the Caronavirus in this 3 Trillion Dollar Caronavirus bill. But -- there is "a lot" concerning illegal aliens! One is to give them $1,200 of out tax dollars. And another is that no illegals can deported as long there is this pandemic. About the last one, the commie-libs will always say there will always be at least 1 case of Caronavirus so that the pandemic will never be over! This is their sick way of , for some reason, protecting people that are here "illegally." Those that are pushing this charade are very, very evil people!

  8. I am not placing the blame on police. I am quite sure of the detective’s feelings on the matter. But I also think a pretty strong inference can be drawn on a family reporting one instance of a “crime” and not the other.

    Well, I will disagree. You do not have the right to self defense by any means. You have a right to a reasonable and necessary defense. Under your premise, if a guy tries to give you a bloody nose, you can kill him. Good luck with that defense...

    Ahmaud Arbery Shooting

    But can you lawful pull the gun in the first place as justified force? This wasn't a guy out rabbit hunting and some crazy guy charged him and tried to take his gun away. Pointing a gun at someone might be any one of a number of crimes, according to state law. If the man with the gun pulled it without justification, Arbery has the same right of self defense and stand your ground.

    Ahmaud Arbery Shooting

    You clearly, in your desire to make things seem as they aren't, misunderstood my post. I sad NOTHING. NADA, ZILCH about Mr. Arbery perpetrating anything. I asked a very generalized question hoping to gain a better understanding that, when a black person commits a crime, it is somehow wrong to mention the skin color when reported by the media. However, when an incident such as the above occurs, the main topic is reduced simply to a black person being wronged by a white person and is stated over, and over, and over. If you still dont understand my question, let me know and I will try to put it alternative terms.

    Ahmaud Arbery Shooting

    From what I read and saw about the incident and read GA law on citizen arrest and self defense, in another forum a week ago I called it a murder. I don’t think he was out jogging but it didn’t matter. The only question should be, was deadly force legal at the time it was used? Prior criminal record, committed a crime that day or anything else didn’t seem to be the issue. Was pulling a shotgun on an apparently unarmed person lawful. In this case you had two men trying to stop our arrest a man with no visible weapons. Even if he turns to fight (which stand your ground in GA probably gives him rights also), GA law (similar to Texas law) says that to use deadly force, the person had to reasonably believe that he was about to suffer death or “great bodily harm”. Texas law is almost identical but says “serious bodily injury”. So let’s play devil’s advocate and assume that Arbery had committed a felony. Let’s assume that the men witnessed it as required by law. Let’s assume that they were not trying to just detain him for questioning (I believe was their original statement) which would be unlawful. Let’s assume that Arbery charges say the man unprovoked. Did two pretty good size men reasonably fear death or great bodily harm fool Arbery. I am not taking about a bloody nose or a black eye. Those aren’t grounds for deadly force in my opinion. If that were true then every high school fight could end up in a lawful killing. If everything went against Arbery as far as his actions, does it justify gunning him down? I think no. Now of course there are facts that we do not know. Did Arbery have a knife in his hand or some other weapon? Did he yell, you piece of crap you’re not going to arrest me and lunge at the guys throat? There are lots of what ifs but even if Arbery was trying to get away from a felony or he might have punched a guy trying to arrest him, does that alone gives a legal option of deadly force? I don’t think so.
