I don't see anywhere in the GA laws about self defense where it says that using a racial slur negates any self defense actions you take.
The racial slur can raise it to a Federal Hate crime.
see Post #32 - explanation as to what negates self defense.
A close examination of the video shows that Arbery attacked before the first shot. He was clearly trying to steal the shotgun.
Clear case of self-defense.
A real close examination of the video shows this:

Now we have testimony what happened during these two tenths of a second.
That’s when Arbery ran around the passenger side of Travis’ truck, and the two men met in front of it.
Dial said Travis told police Arbery “squared up” like he was going to attack.
“There’s a statement that he might have had his hand on his shirt,” Dial said. “Travis McMichael said his adrenaline was pumping and it all happened very quickly.”
He said Travis then fired the first shot into Arbery’s chest.”Testimony: Shooter used racist slur as Arbery lay dying
BRUNSWICK, Ga. (AP) - A state investigator testified Thursday that a white man was heard saying a racist slur as he stood over Ahmaud Arbery's body, moments after fatally shooting the black man with a pump-action shotgun. The inflammatory revelation came amid a week of angry nationwide...www.sfgate.comThere is no self defense here. AA came around the front of the truck and was shot in the chest at point blank range by TM and per TM.
No it can't. The guy testified today that this guy had thousands and thousands of texts on his phone and he showed no racial tendencies.
I can promise if a black dude jumps at me and tries to grab my gun in the adrenaline rush of the moment when I shoot him I might very well call him a niggerrr. That doesn't make my actions any less legal.
So um checkmate? Try again.
