4. Gregory McMichael and son Travis McMichael May they rot in hell. I saw the video.

He was jogging, in shorts and tee, and the McMicael's truck was stopped ahead of Ahmaud Arbery in the middle of the residential street.

Ahmaud had to jog around the passenger side of the truck but Travis was in the bed and George already had his shotgun out and was on the far side of the trunk, and he and Ahmaud somehow engaged out of view then had a tussle.

A couple of shotgun blasts are heard as they come into view and Ahmaud takes a few steps to run away and then collapses.

This was an ambush and cold blooded murder.

13. 'He's a black man running down our road'

Yes, it was cold blooded murder

14. They think they can pull a Zimmerman.

(edited to remove "according to the police report" or "the report said" after every single line)

After the shooting, Gregory McMichael told police he saw the same man "the other night" and that he stuck his hand down his pants on that occasion, leading McMichael to believe he was armed, according to a Glynn County Police report.

After seeing Arbery jogging, McMichael then alerted Travis, 34. "Travis, the guy is running down the street, let's go," McMichael said.

The two grabbed a shotgun and a pistol and followed Arbery in their truck, police said. Travis McMichael, the driver, followed Arbery and then attempted to cut him off. Arbery turned around and began running in the opposite direction. They chased Arbery to a nearby intersection, where they caught up to him.

"Stop, stop, we want to talk to you," Gregory McMichael shouted at Arbery, according to the police report.

Travis McMichael then exited truck with the shotgun. His father told officers Arbery "violently attacked" his son, the report said, and they struggled over the gun. Travis McMichael fired two shots, and Arbery fell.

At best, the men had the authority to follow Arbery and send law enforcement to that location, (family attorney S. Lee) Merritt said. The 911 calls show the call taker was asking the men what Arbery is doing that was of criminal concern. "They didn't give any answer for that, they said, 'He's a black man running down our road'."

Defenders of the men are pointing to a shoplifting conviction in Arbery's past.

Self-appointed crime patrol chased him down with a gun "just to talk," murdered him when he fought back, and offer some bullshit story involving imaginary robbery. Annnnd there it is: digging through the victim's past to find something to "justify" his murder. (Shoplifting? Seriously?) Second verse, same as the first. ...Wait, what's this?

CNN had previously reached out to Gregory McMichael, who is also a former investigator for the district attorney in the Brunswick Judicial Circuit, for comment.

Holy shit.

5. Shocking...

well, not so much actually. Entirely expected.

[CatMor]

6. It seems trump voters all look alike ...

they were all cut out of the same racist pattern.

[crickets]

7. Well. Now we know one reason why there have been no arrests.

There's a special place in hell for Kemp and the McMichaels. *sigh*

8. Doesn't seem to match the photo released of father and son.

9. I can't find the picture you are referring to

Do you remember where you saw it?

11. I knew It

I posted this on Reddit this morning.

12. Welcome to DU, ItsjustMe.

These two DEFINITELY are cowards.

15. Typical

16. Still not arrested 3 months after the murder, but a grand jury is

finally going to be convened. Reportedly they tried to stop him on another street but he avoided them, and they repositioned in ambush where they murdered him.

WaPo: Only one burglary was reported to the Glynn County Police Department in the Satilla Shores neighborhood between Jan. 1 and Feb. 23, and it involved a pistol taken from a pickup truck outside of Travis McMichael’s home, the Brunswick News reported.

17. I can't understand why the two shitheads weren't arrested.

They ambushed him and shot him.

[WhiskeyGrinder]

18. It's not. It's James Stachowiak.

19. I don't live anywhere near these absolute scum

but I hope they shit themselves constantly for fear of their pathetic "lives". Degoutant.
