I see a lot of the pro-McMichaels people are suggesting, without any evidence, that Arbery had committed a crime. And they are referring to Arbery walking into construction site and looking around without stealing anything. Gee, yeah that's a horrible crime I guess.
I guess then it's highly appropriate for two dopes, who aren't leos, to accost Arbery and either point a loaded gun at him or have it at the ready.
I don't think so. These two idiots saw a black guy running down the road and decided they, armed with loaded guns, to stop and question him.
What gives them the right to do that? If they can do that, without witnessing a crime committed by the person they stopped, then anybody, at least in Georgia, can stop anybody, and with loaded guns at the ready, stop someone and question him or her about some supposed crime.
In short, the McMichaels, who were not law officiers, HAD NO IDEA WHAT ARBERY HAD DONE!!!
Get it? Even if they had seen a video of Arbery stepping into a construction site, there was absolutely no reason to stop Arbery and question him carrying loaded guns. Again, they were NOT!! leos who are duly authorized to question suspicious persons.
They were completely in the wrong. Again, it might not be murder, but certainly at least manslaughter.
