The shooting and killing of Ahmaud Arbery

[TFC]

There are no hate crime laws in GA, so amazingly they won't be charged for one.

I fucking despair at this country sometimes.

I'd settle for straightforward murder if I'm honest.

Wonder why the video took so long to surface? Could it be that it was submitted to the local police who just sat on it because the elder of the 2 assailants was a retired 30 year local cop/detective?

Just seen the mugshots of the 2 assailants. They couldn't have looked more like racist rednecks if they'd tried.

The US is one fucked up country. If Trump gets another 4 years it will be in failed state territory.

You're right. The police forces and prosecution in Britain are very dissimilar in the past. Double jeopardy laws have never been changed or anything because of racism. Things like this definitely only happen in America. Ask Stephen Lawrence's family

You keep posting that link and banging that drum as if you’re making a point.

I left my birth country more than a decade ago and even then the signs were painfully clear the nation was in a state of metastatic decay. With each passing year of one egregious event after another, I can only envision a course correction coming through revolution

If only Covid 19 could just target the morons and bad guys...

Even COVID19 doesn’t have a sufficient transmission rate to weed out all the problems in the US. It’s not just a few bad apples

I know. And you speak acerbically to others as if somehow that will make them want to listen to what you are saying. I suppose we all have our flaws, don't we? :)

Sadly I think that you are correct. If you check my follow up post it may clarify my position. I hope you do not judge me on this alone.

No judgement

Stolen from Reddit. This guy ran 2km through his neighbourhood carrying a TV and people on the street waived at him.

Top comment. "That's activism done right"
