    If I had a mob come to your doorstep, we'd probably just give you a beer and smoke you out and you'd chill the **** out.

    Good because you are seriously getting beat up here. You are getting exposed. It is good you are stopping. Could also be your position is weak and you have nothing intelligent to say in your defense of your position. You could try and attack people and use your alt right terminology again. Anyways good you are stopping because you are on a verge of a major breakdown. Definitely not worth it.

    I literally said that you don't care about this case and the only motivation to post here is "triggering people" because it satisfies your urge to feel intelligent and "above it all".

    Video of a black jogger being cornered by 3 people and killed= we need more evidence.

    Video of same black jogger standing in a building under construction then leaving without taking anything = See look, here’s definitive proof he was up to no good.

    Implicit bias is really something.

    so a random liberal triggering someone on the street is worthy of a crybaby thread but you can't show an ounce of sympathy for an innocent man murdered due to obvious racism?

    Jesus man, actually, look to jesus. You'll find the way you act couldn't be further from his teachings.

    So regardless of why the jogger was in the house under construction, regardless of whether he had prior convictions, regardless of the skin color of the people involved - clearly the jogger had not committed a felony immediately leading up to the confrontation. So there was no actual reason to cut him off and threaten him with guns. Even assuming that the men doing so had no racist intentions and believed there was a reason to confront the person - objectively, they would have been wrong.

    Therefore, they were the aggressors and not acting lawfully, no matter what they subjectively believed.

    The jogger had a right to defend himself (although it was a very bad idea - it would have been much better to just put the hands up in the air).

    They initiated the confrontation, then shot someone who had not been confronted in the act of committing a crime, but was defending himself when unlawfully confronted.

    I don't see how anyone could argue that they should not be convicted.

    At best, their mistaken belief (if one believes that was the case) that they were confronting someone who had just committed a burglary could be seen as a mitigating factor.

    Yes. I don't think their intent was to kill him so that means they shouldn't prosecute them for murder 1 or 2. This is a well deserved man slaughter charge. They were being reckless while commiting an illegal act that resulted in a death.
