Did he offer any comment on the details of Coach Haynes’ release?

But was he “fleeing” from a crime (other than simple trespass) or was he just leaving the house he was snooping around in? It’s all how you pose it. Nobody said all the other people in the many videos were fleeing. Also, did you just commit a Freudian slip? You just called it an “eventual murder” and not a death due to self defense. Interesting...

This is one of the few things you have posted that makes sense.

Did anyone ever answer this?

What does any of that have to do with anything?

Was an arrest ever made bay the McMichaels? According to the police report I have read many times now, McMichaels claims they told Arbery, “Stop stop, we want to talk to you.” A conversation is not an arrest, and an unarmed citizen is under no legal obligation to stop and “talk” to other armed citizens who are blocking his path. Furthermore, by trying to stop him for questioning Instead of arresting Arbery is an illegal detainment. Arbery was under no obligation to stop and talk to 2 armed men in the street trying to detain him for questioning. In fact, stating an intention to question a Arbery might be used as evidence that the individual claiming a right to make a citizen’s arrest is “uncertain and did not have immediate knowledge” that the victim had been the perpetrator of the alleged crime which would dismiss the McMichaels right to make a citizen’s arrest.

So, no proof of the “No Trespasspassing” sign?

What was the offense?

I’m not disagreeing with you or your stats. But it’s not the killings that are being protested, necessarily. It’s not the number of whites vs number of blacks, etc., etc. Its the issue that black violent crime is treated differently than white violent crime. Especially in the eyes of the law and law enforcement communities. So, all the preaching about black on black and white on black, etc. doesn’t mean dick. Not saying I agree or disagree, but that’s all the hub-bub, Bub.

Yep. New thread needed.

What gave them the right to attempt detaining Arbery? “GA-17-4-60. Grounds for arrest A private person may arrest an offender if the offense is committed in his presence or within his immediate knowledge. If the offense is a felony and the offender is escaping or attempting to escape, a private person may arrest him upon reasonable and probable grounds of suspicion.”

Plus, please explain what you mean with the consistent use of the term “fleeing”.

The problem with all of this is that NONE of these hypothetical situations happened, nor do they line up with what actually happened. Those guys weren’t cops. The kid didn’t steal anything. And now he is dead. If your entire point is to say that the current circumstances don’t warrant a racial outcry from the black community, then I will ride with you until more evidence is exposed. If you’re trying to say that the 2 (now 3) men arrested for the alleged murder of Arbery were acting lawfully and completely within their rights to detain and eventually kill Arbery then I’m unbuckling my seatbelt. If you’re implying that Arbery is a POS that, through his prior actions that day and with previous altercations with LE got what he deserved and the murder suspects should be let go, then pull over at the next light, I’m getting out.

Lol. You may be quite a bit smarter than me. I can’t seem to get it through my thick skull that paying a guide to take me fishing is a helluva lot cheaper than owning/maintaining a boat. Thx.

They did that “Sooner” than everyone else. See what I did there?...

Lol. Typical. Btw, how is LCM looking for this year?

Hey RaiderGirl, I think we sent FalconRus back under his rock!

I agree. The only reason they are flying with Biden is the small hopes that his VP role with anointed one, Obama, will somehow pull out a win.

You’re a silly man.

Im sure many good people run. It’s what becomes of them after being elected.

I think Crenshaw or Abbot would be great choices.

Dear God, on this Memorial Day weekend, please help us to remember and give thanks for those who have given their lives in the service of our country. When the need was greatest, they stepped forward and did their duty to defend the freedoms that we enjoy, and to win the same for others. These honored dead gave the most precious gift they had, life itself, to promote that most just cause. Help us to honor their memory by caring for the families they have left behind, by ensuring that their wounded comrades are properly cared for and by being watchful caretakers of the freedoms for which they gave their lives. O Dear Lord, help us to remember that freedom is not free. There are times when its cost is, indeed, dear. Never let us forget those who paid so terrible a price to ensure that freedom would be ours to cherish and enjoy. Though their names may fade with the passing of generations, may we never forget what they have done. Help us to be worthy of their sacrifice. Please Dear God, help us to be worthy. Amen

So...with the recent economic downturn and loss of wages, I have found myself in a predicament. I have a 20’ Skeeter Bay Boat I’m in the middle of rewiring. New gauges, fuse panel, etc. I was in the middle of this project when I realized I don’t know what the luck I’m doing. Decided to get a shop to finish. Then the roof fell in. Still have a job with considerable loss in wages. Looking for someone who charges much less than the boat repair shop to “help” me finish. Any ideas?

Wasn’t referring to Lumberton either. Not sure why you made reference to them. Palestine said y’all weren’t for real is all I heard.
