THAT'S what caught the McMichaels' attention and not the color of Arbery's skin.
So now that you have conceded this point, can we dispense with the "jogging while black" race baiting nonsense?Last edited by JimL; 05-27-2020, 05:25 PM.

Originally posted by Mountain Man View PostOn the contrary, it is extremely precise. Arbery is responsible for his own actions. The McMichaels are responsible for theirs. What do you disagree with?
ME: I got in a car accident today.
MM: I blame you for the part you were responsible for. I blame the other person for the part they were responsible for.
The statement says precisely nothing.

Suggesting that there is fault to be had on both sides because Arbery should have been more cautious, should have been more aware of the fact that there are bad people out there is deflecting from the actual issue. That could just as well of happened in any neighborhood. How is Arbery to know which neighborhoods he can or can not go into without risking his life?

There's the fact that you insist you've pointed me to backing data from declassified FBI docs but haven't.
There's your open admission that you're a troll.
There's plenty of meat on this bone :).
