You said that when black people level charges of racism that it's rarely true, we're like the boy who cried wolf.I think the Macs should be found not guilty because they are not guilty.
All the evidence and particuarly the video demonstrates that.
In fact they should never have been charged with any crime...and the only reason they were is because of the media and its inherent desire to incite more and more racial violence....making this case a racial thing when in fact the Macs would have done the same thing if the suspect had been white....no doubt in my mind about that.
You wanna take a guess on who wrote the laws which determine when racism has occurred? What about which cases establish precedence?
Just like you all can look at this case and claim "self-defense" all day long when in actuality "but for" the actions of the McMichaels, the shooting probably would have never occurred because they had no "valid legal basis" for taking off after Arbery and confronting him, shotgun in hand like they did.
The same type of people as you and the McMichaels who support, uphold and enforce racist laws, decisions, verdicts and behaviors will look at a situation, or a stack of evidence and still stubbornly claim that racism had nothing to do with why they decided to take an adverse action against someone.
I don't believe you carry or are licensed to carry because if you were you were know just why your interpretation of this situation is erroneous. Irrespective of what the courts decide, it can never be said that they did nothing wrong and I hope they swing one way or another not just for taking Arbery's life but for the pain and fear that their behavior has caused to countless individuals.
