So what you’re not responding to the points being made. Slavery was once legalized in America.
Lots of things were legal. Slavery. Prostitution. Cocaine. Opium. And the list goes on and on. Abortion was legal when the country was founded. I’m betting you don’t object to any of the other prohibitions that exist now that didn’t exist then.
None of that is Germaine. The charges that the McMichaels faced were not new. All of them had been on the books for decades. There were precedent cases in which the courts defined the laws, decades before. Nothing new was used against them.
In fact. I took a course when I got my Concealed Weapons License. Everything the McMichaels did was explained to me as things to not do unless I wanted to go to jail. The books I got from USCCA on carrying concealed when I joined them had the same warnings.
Initially, the prosecution in Georgia ruled the McMichaels to be innocent. Because of a radical left-wing media, and a small but violent BLM mob did this case go to court.
Another almost but not quite entirely untrue statement from you.
Jackie Johnson delayed the arrest. She knew the McMichaels and told the cops to wait. This action is why she is facing charges for abuse of office.
In contrivance of Georgia law, she passed it to a friend with the suggestion he handle it. The Friend said he saw nothing wrong with the shooting before reading any documents acting on Johnson’s verbal description. He isn’t facing charges, but was voted out of office over the misconduct.
I mean, I think you understand it you can’t present a logical counter to the fact that arbery was illegally trespassing he, then when confronted charged a man who had a gun on him. Arbery could have stood his ground and waited for the police to come. That did not happen.
Seems like you’re playing politics here. The McMichaels don’t deserve to be in prison for life that is cruel and unusual punishment. It’s actually evil. Same thing with Officer Derek Chauvin. People are easily brainwashed in America. Well that is to say the left wing. They watch a small video clip And whether it’s a knee on George Floyd or shooting of Arberry they act as if it’s the same thing as a kid being mercilessly killed for no good reason. That’s pretty much what we’re dealing with here. None of that is true though.
There’s an entire case here to look at there’s a cause and effect when it comes to George Floyd and Arberry. And the radical left-wing, and even some conservatives are not digging through the details.
All of this type of BLM mob justice is coinciding with with one of the worst economies in American history. The rise of the weak feminized man.
I described the case. In detail. Describing the actions of the McMichaels and the laws they violated.
But let’s look at it. Under Georgia law, Arbury was not trespassing. He wasn’t. As I mentioned on page one. Only the property owner, a renter, or a designated in writing representative can declare someone is trespassing under Georgia law. The cops couldn’t have arrested Arbury even if he had stopped.
Under the Winn Dixie decision, the McMichaels had no legal authority to stop Arbury. They were committing crimes literally from the moment they grabbed their guns and jumped into the truck.
Trying to bump him off the road is Aggravated Assault under Georgia law. Trying to stop him without legal authority is Illegal Imprisonment under Georgia law. Both are felonies.
Georgia passed these laws decades ago. Partially to make the Klan subject to the law during the bad old days.
None of these laws were new. None of the applications were new or novel. They were right out of the precedents. Cases that had come before.
That’s the law in Georgia. Laws I was briefed on in that class I mentioned years before this happened. So for years I’ve known that the law did not allow such things.
Your argument is that it isn’t right. The history of the deceased matters more than the actions of the criminals. Ok. Let’s discuss that. Despite the fact that it is illegal to do that in court in every single state. We can play that game.
Arbury hadn’t stolen anything in that neighborhood. There were thefts going on in the neighborhood. The police were aware. And they had video of the suspects. A white man, and white woman.
No scary Blacks were involved.
So what happened? Travis and Greg decided Arbury was the guy stealing stuff. Including Travis’s pistol from his truck. No evidence. Nothing to indicate it was Arbury.
Now here we are getting to my opinion. I think the fact that Travis had his gun stolen gnawed at him. I think it infuriated him to think that Arbury was the one who stole the gun. I think that is why they wouldn’t consider approaching Arbury without guns of their own. I think they expected to find the gun on Arbury.
The old Citizens Arrest law, the one in effect when this went down. That one was known as a bet your life law. If you put someone under Citizens Arrest, and were wrong, the arrested fellow was innocent. You went to jail for felony illegal imprisonment.
That is why Daddy McMoron didn’t tell Arbury he was under arrest. Daddy knew if he said that, and Arbury didn’t have the gun, Daddy would be going to jail.
Daddy wanted to make it a voluntary stop. So Arbury would sit and wait for the cops. But Daddy was almost as angry as Travis that the black guy stole the gun. Again that last sentence is my opinion.
They were wrong. Arbury had committed no crime in the neighborhood. They tried to stop him by bumping him with their trucks. That is a crime.
It wasn’t BLM. It was Georgians all over the state. It wasn’t leftists or ANTIFA. It was regular people who were outraged.
The McMichaels made every mistake they could. They screwed up from start to finish. They told their story to the cops instead of doing the smart thing and getting a lawyer. Daddy counted on Jackie saving their asses. It was too hot for that to work.
