Ahmaud Arbery

[Brigade77]

A black man gets shot whilst jogging between burglaries.

Lets see how the snivelling left wing scum handle this one . . . . !

As a snivelling left wing scum, I prefer to rely on eminent media reports rather than your (you're a self-confessed, right-wing, violent rioter) twisted version of events.

Mr Arbery was out for an afternoon jog in the coastal city of Brunswick.

The elder Mr McMichael, a neighbourhood resident, told police he believed Mr Arbery resembled the suspect in a series of local break-ins. Police have said no reports were filed regarding these alleged break-ins.

You reckon he was on that building site just to inspect the quality of the workmanship then?

By some fruit cakes who thought he looked shifty

Happens in London regularly , either shot or stabbed.

One major difference is that in the USA guns are legal, there is very little control and a sizeable percentage of the population own a gun (you can even buy guns and ammunition in Wal-Mart). Am I the odd one out in seeing the widfespread availability of guns being part of the issue here?

In Texas you can carry a pistol /gun in a holster on full view

like the Wild West

He was on the site probably for the same reason as the children and a white couple, just being nosey.
The killers also visited the site, but they were looking for someone to kill.
No-one had permission to be on the site, and no damage was done by anyone.
You're just struggling to make a case for your bigotry.
Give it up and don't dig a hole for yourself.

a cat or dog in distress and went to investigate ??

Did you know thst in some states if anyone enters your home uninvited you can under certain circumstances use deadly force to repel them? That is scary

quite right as well

this country you would probably get sued by a burglar if he got injured breaking into your house

open season on burglars and car thieves

they should all end up in wheel chairs sucking there dinner through a straw

What do you find 'scary' with people having the right to protect themselves?

What do you find 'scary' with people having the right to protect themselves?

What do you find normal about a country which now seems to be saying that you can go out with a gun and kill anyone you want; and then (if white) rely on the 'he scared me' defence?

You're quite entitled to kick the **** out of someone in this country if in self defence, and kill them if you can show reasonable force.

Using reasonable force against intruders - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)

You can use reasonable force to protect yourself or others if a crime is taking place inside your home.

This means you can:

• protect yourself ‘in the heat of the moment’ - this includes using an object as a weapon
• stop an intruder running off - for example by tackling them to the ground

There’s no specific definition of ‘reasonable force’ - it depends on the circumstances. If you only did what you honestly thought was necessary at the time, this would provide strong evidence that you acted within the law. Read guidance from the Crown Prosecution Service.

You do not have to wait to be attacked before defending yourself in your home.

However, you could be prosecuted if, for example, you:

• carry on attacking the intruder even if you’re no longer in danger
• pre-plan a trap for someone - rather than involve the police

I don't think he said that Charlie. Even in this country we're entitled to use self defence or be allowed to protect our property.
I'm sure if you came home and found a complete stranger rummaging through your wife's drawers you'd be temped to crack them across the skull with a leek.
