This is what happens when knuckleheads try to become cops. There was no reason to try to stop and "arrest" him. They could have followed him, called 911 and let the cops investigate. If I was jogging and someone got out of their car with a weapon and came toward me I would have drawn mine and shot and would have been fully justified. If you draw a weapon on someone you have now created a deadly force use for the person you drew upon.

This is a 100% avoidable tragedy. There will be a trial. I certainly do not profess to know all the details but even if this kid was a burglar (I am not suggesting he was) that does not carry a death sentence and walking around with weapons drawn trying to make citizen arrests will lead to this occurring.

Well said Cpl Jeff N., i would have done the same. I went for my walk this morning and was carrying as I always do. My heart bleeds for the Arbery family.

SSgt Ray Stone - The wheels of justice grind slowly Ray and not always in a straight line. Ask Mike Flynn.

SSgt Ray Stone - The movement of the wheels of justice Ray. They can be slow and not on a direct path and can take years to run their course. That is the comparison point.

CMSgt (Join to see) Isn't Glynco where the Federal Law Enforcement Academy is? When I got appointed to Border Patrol, I'm pretty sure it was Glynco they ordered me to report to. I dont know as I turned down my appointment.

SFC William Farrell As you say, it sounds like a terrible executed lynching!

People that are such haters should not be allowed to possess firearms!

SFC James J. Palmer IV aka "JP4" - I am the same way JP, i dont care what color you are. I wouldn't chase someone down because they are black or hispanic or asian and I wouldn't want someone chasing me or my loved ones down because we are white. My parents brought me up to respect others.

SFC James J. Palmer IV aka "JP4" - if the colors were reversed, the black guys would have been arrested the day it happened. unfortunately, these two jackasses were left to roam the streets for months after before charges were filed.
