imadine living in a world where you could come home and find a strange man digging thru your 12 yr old daughters underware drawer and upon confronting him he could run in a panic out your back door and off into the road where it would be illegal to persue an individual you did not witness commit a crime you could prove in court
Because this individual gained access to your home thru an open back door and didn't commit a crime you can prove in court you would be forbade from persueing him and if you did and he ATTACKED you it would be ILLEGAL for you to defend yourself
This is the world an ultra-liberal freak Fringe wants to pursue in protecting the behavior of a well-known local Thief named Ahmaud Arberry
Many of them hate guns and hate the idea of the citizenry having the same arrest powers that the Government utilises and or have simply bought into the story of "black victimhood" to such a degree that any situation involving a black victim is automatically excuseable or abideable under the ethos of eternal racism
This is simply a story about a couple of redneck do gooders trying to protect their neighborhood from a well-known local Thief who got violent when they tried to detain him
You are an idiot. Plain and simple. You keep coming up with insane scenarios that have absolutely nothing to do with what we are discussing. First. Arbury was not in the McMichaels house. He just wasn’t. No evidence that he ever had been.
A more accurate scenario. Someone sees your son walking down the street. They think he may have just come from another neighbors house and chase him down. They beat him senseless. There was no crime. And the vigilantes were certain they were right. Damn the evidence. Your son will spend the rest of his life as a vegetable from the brain damage.
Now according to you. Your son had it coming. Just because he didn’t commit a crime is no reason that he should avoid the penalties.
But in your disturbed mind a black guy is always guilty.
And your insane scenario. It happened. Not to Richard Ramirez which is probably why you didn’t hear about it.
A Texas rancher who beat his daughter's accused molester to death moments after he discovered the man raping the 5-year-old girl, will not be charged with his homicide, officials said, as they released chilling 911 tapes of the father calling for help as the other man died.

What is the difference between the McMichaels and all the examples you come up with? You tend to start them “in your home”. It wasn’t the McMichaels home. If it had been nobody would have charged them with disturbing the peace in Georgia. But it wasn’t their home. They committed crimes and now they are going to prison.
What is even funnier is how you accuse everyone of cowardice for not acting like you say you do. But the truth is you don’t either. Otherwise you would be in prison already.
You are an ignorant ass.
how come George Zimmerman walked then?
unlike Ahmaud travon was a decent kid who was just a punk but at least he wasent robbing houses
if its illegal to shoot someone attacking you why didn't Zimmerman go to jail?
he got arrested just like the mcmichels
Because Zimmerman unlike the McMichaels was not committing a crime in Florida when the altercation happened. He’s a pussy and a punk. But again. Laws in different states are different.
A fact that repeatedly escapes you.
but he was chasing a man he had not seen commit a crime while holding a gun in a less redneck state?
Georgia has laws. Florida has laws. The same incident in the fifty states will get dozens of different outcomes. Legally speaking.
Let’s say I shoot an intruder in my home with my Glock 17. In Georgia. No problem. I am still going to have an attorney present during questioning.
The exact same situation in Colorado is a very different outcome. The high capacity magazine in my Glock is illegal. So I used an illegal weapon to shoot the exact same intruder. In Texas a Marijuana Grower got away with killing a cop. Again. Different laws. Different states.
Let’s say you go to New York City. You turn right on a red light after coming to a complete stop. In NYC this is illegal. Let’s say you are driving in Georgia. The rain starts and you get a ticket. In Georgia you must have your lights on when the wipers are. It does not matter what the law is in your State, or any other State.
The exact same actions will have different results in different states. That is why your lists of other situations in other states is stupid.
Remember the Movie 300? Leonidis told the envoy that a man is responsible for the words coming out of his mouth, even if they are not his own words. That was the law in Sparta. It wasn’t the law anywhere else. But it was the law there. In fact. Not fiction.
It is not incumbent upon where you are visiting to change to your understanding of what is right and wrong. It is not they who are joining or visiting you.
Georgia Laws have been on the books for decades. The Aggravated Assault law was being debated in the legislature. Many felt it was too strict. Technically if I hold a criminal at gunpoint I have violated the law. If I am not prosecuted by prosecutorial discretion. That doesn’t mean it is legal. It means I got away with it.
At the beginning of this disaster. Not just this thread but the situation. I said what I have many times here. Learn the laws.
I adjusted my training from Military to Civilian to be in compliance with the laws. If I do not see a gun I am not pulling my pistol. I just am not. My first trained reaction is seek cover today. In the Army it might have been charge with rapid fire. I might have used suppressive fire to allow my mates to get into a better position. I can’t use that now. It would be reckless endangerment and attempted murder of any bystanders.
Getting through the situation alive is important. And pretty much almost as important is staying out of prison. That is where your lawyer comes in. Not some local family law attorney. A good defense attorney.
Design your prepared responses to the law. No bad guy with a gun? Keep yours out of sight.
But most importantly. Mind your own business and this is vital. Do not break any laws. Because if you do, it’s a Felony in Georgia. Get into an argument and a fight breaks out? Misdemeanor disturbing the peace is out the window. Possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime. Say hello to Prison for a while.
In Georgia. The weapon is authorized. But for self defense against a threat to life or the lives of another. Now. In Georgia Zimmerman would have had charges and they would have resulted in Conviction. Different state. Different laws. Why? He instigated the situation following an innocent guy. And he did so in violation of the instructions received from 9-1-1.
