A 25-year-old black man was shot dead in Georgia while jogging, prompting online protests labeling the incident as racial profiling

A black man jogging in an affluent suburban Georgia neighborhood was shot dead by neighbors on February 23, who thought he was a robber, setting off online protests labeling the incident as racial profiling, The New York Times reported.

Ahmaud Arbery was jogging around Brunswick, Georgia, before he was killed in nearby Satilla Shores. Arbery ran by Gregory McMichael who called to his son Travis McMichael before grabbing their .357 magnum revolver and shotgun and followed Arbery in a truck, according to The Times.

"Stop, stop," they shouted at Mr. Arbery, according to The Times, "we want to talk to you."

Gregory McMichael told police he thought Arbery was the suspect in a string of break-ins. Arbery died after being shot twice in after "a struggle over the shotgun," according to The Times.

According to The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, the elder McMichael, who is a former police officer, was the only source quoted in the police report and that led critics to suspect that "his influence played a role in authorities' decision not to bring charges."

"There's a lot of suspicion of law enforcement down here," Akeem Baker, a friend of Arbery told AJC.

Neither the father nor son have been charged with Arbery's killing.

So now you can't jog while black.

How is it that you can just grab your gun and chase someone down the block, kill them and then return home for dinner.

Oh that's right there is no more racism in the South anymore.
why is this a racial issue?

Because 2 racist murdered a black man.
How do you know that they are racist?

Why didn't they chase down and murder any of the whites who were illegally on the same property?
Facts not in evidence

They are in evidence moron, how the hell do you think we know.
It was self defense.. it’s on video

It cannot be self defense for TravisM.

This is from the video:

TravisM’s white cap can be seen on the video through the windshield at the point where the barrel of an extended shotgun would have hit Arbery on the nose as he came around the front of the truck at the 18 / 19 second mark. That means Arbury had a one half second reaction time from when his attacker was in his face and space to when the shotgun went off.

There is only one scientific conclusion.

Arbery was attacked by TravisM

Great story .. NOT GUILTY
 
Great story .. NOT GUILTY

Actually true story. More true than the one the gunman told the police when they arrived
The video shows self defense,, they were following a criminal, a serial break in artist, they armed them selves and were bound to make sure the cops got the crook. But AA commited suicide it’s on camera he rushed a guy with a gun he should’ve been shot at least 10 yards before he made contact,, travis resisted and was hoping he would just stop wait for the cops your caught buddy
 
Those two men would have scrammed even if he just told them that he was calling the police.
The Court will sort this all out in the end.

Look, the only point that I want to make about this is that the Press is using this as a big racial controversy to exploit minorities for the election.
This same kind of left wing racist demagoguery crap happens every 4 years.
If the "jogger" was white would the Press have made it a big issue?
If the "jogger" was white and the two men were Black would the Press make this a big issue?
If the two men were Black would the Press have made it a big issue?
Be honest with yourself.
 
It was an honest mistake

a tragic event-----people are killed in my city
every day------stray bullets and speeding vehicles

No this wasn't a tragic event, this was murder.

you do not have sufficient information to CONCLUDE that it was murder.

They are sitting in jail on a murder charge.

I assume that the trial is pending
