Ahmaud Arbery; racist killing and attempted cover up.

[Mountain Man]

The suspicion was from a video of the prior night. Try again Patrick

Patrick?

But, no, he was observed trespassing that day, and the McMichael clan recognized him from the video as the person who had trespassed on the property previously. That's what compelled them to go after him.

He's using the name change thing that Mountain Man often does, in this case it is a reference to the Lutheran Satire videos where Donall and Conall call everyone "Patrick". This seems to be due to their first video being about St. Patrick.

Also, Mountain Man routinely changes Starlight's name to Dimbulb, but mainly it's a Lutheran Satire reference.

The guy wasn't innocently jogging through the neighborhood like the left claims. But I think most would agree he shouldn't have been shot.

Actually false scenario concerning the house under construction. According to the home owners the above ranges from an extreme exaggeration to not true.

[Reepicheep]

So it wasn't about "how serious the crime was", but out of concern that they would influence witnesses and obstruct justice.

The judge also stated, in his bail ruling, that “there appears there was little or no attempt by the defendants to have a conversation with Arbery, nor was there an attempt to call the police”, which makes it difficult for defense to argue that this was a legal attempt at making a "citizens arrest".

That's not funny...

The characters also go on to call everyone they encounter "Patrick" in a condescending way for the other videos. It's a little strange, but I thought the videos were kind of funny.

I thought maybe it was a Spongebob reference.

And I have never supported that position -- your initial conclusion was simply wrong.

Speaking as a Lutheran, I think the videos are hilarious. (the ones I've seen, anyway).

Arbery was violently chased...

He was chased. That's a fact. "Violently chased" is your interpretation of the facts and not a fact itself.

But they didn't say "pretty please with ice cream and a cherry on top".

Typically, if you have to explain a joke, it isn't funny...

Only you, shunny, would respond to a post that's practically a year old. Only you.

From the 9-1-1

“There’s a guy in the house right now; it’s under construction,” the man told the dispatcher.

The man then gave her an address.

“And you said someone’s breaking into it right now?” the dispatcher asked.

“No,” the man replied, “it’s all open. It’s under construction … “

The man interrupted to say Arbery was leaving. “And there he goes right now.”

“Ok,” the dispatcher said, “What is he doing?”

“He’s running down the street,” the man said. The next sentence is garbled.

“That’s fine,” the dispatcher said. “I’ll get (police) out there. I just need to know what he was doing wrong. Was he just on the premises and not supposed to be?”

The next sentence is garbled. “And he’s been caught on camera a bunch at night. It’s kind of an ongoing thing. The man building the house has got heart issues. I think he’s not going to finish it.”

The Brunswick Times

There's no immediate knowledge that a crime is being committed. Even if it was know the individual was indeed not supposed to be on the premises, trespassing itself isn't a felony and thus escaping from trespassing wouldn't fall under the jurisdiction of the citizen's arrest statute.

[rogue06]

It was based on video surveillance of a prior night. Regarding the grounds of suspension, the statutes reads that the individual has to be attempting to escape a felony to justify a citizen's arrest. The defence rests on the citizen's arrest being legitimate.

Or being "deputized" by local law enforcement who told the property owner to call him first if there was more suspicious activity, since he could arrive sooner than a squad car.

Knowing shuny, he probably thinks it's a recent thread.
