It was NOT a jogger. And I'm not saying it was justified or not, I'll let the judicial system decide.

But you can go back to your fake virtue signaling.

Has it been reported that the shooting victim "had robbed something and was running away"...or is this just RunForTheRoses creating his own news?

In this case I'll trust Just Ralph's judgement.


For the record, the 2nd gunman was riding in the bed of the truck while most of this went down in the front of the truck.

I am sure this runner never knew the other guy was armed. He was too busy being accosted by the guy with the shotgun

This all happen in about ten seconds once the truck stopped.

The guy with the shotgun tries to stop the guy (who is plainly just jogging as far as I can tell) The guy immediately tries to disarm the guy with the shotgun (I don't think he even saw the other gun) and in ten seconds he is shot and going down. He was whacking the guy with the shotgun upside the temple when he was shot I believe by the other guy from the bed of the truck.

Damn shame these guys thought they were the judge and jury on this one.

Given that choice what would you do?

the video does not show a pickup chasing him down.

I have never seen a jogger switch over lanes behind a vehicle on the left and whip around the front while speeding up.

If I was afraid, I would have took a left into the woods when they were stopped 50 yards in front.



maybe he should have just stopped and asked him what he wants?

I thought about this too. Why not? He wasn't doing anything?

I think he was just jogging and thought that he needed to fight to disarm or he was going down.

Fight or Flight kicked in. I think he chose the wrong one.........

he should have ran into the woods.

What you are 'supposed' to do is read and understand an article before you jump on someone for bringing up precisely something that the OP article DID reference.

And finally, right...we don't know what really went down, and the NYT would be my last choice to rely on for the truth, the facts of a matter, any matter. Why not tear the information in the article apart, rather than bust each other's jaws over opinions? Now, THAT would be acting like adults! Do you understand?
Exactly - the "Board Cop" should apologize to you and try to regains some of HIS dignity!

All YOU did was post a fact.

Curious, you chastise those who took the side of the two white guys, because we do not know exactly what went down, BUT, you never mention the OBVIOUSLY biased THREAD TITLE?

Maybe everyone should step back until we hear from both sides.

Even if this turns out to be an unjustified killing and a heinous crime. I don’t understand why race is the main headline when someone white kills someone black. They may have killed the guy regardless of race. As I’ve stated before, there have been many whites robbed,shot and killed by blacks in my hometown over the last 20 years and race is never mentioned. If this is going to be the norm in reporting and outrage culture then the race of the victims and perpetrators should be listed every time a crime is committed.

He was jogging and he is/was black.

Those are facts.

And we have already heard the lies the ex-police officer told in the official police report.

It will go to the grand jury who will indict the pair.

Is that what you would do if a young black guy armed with a shotgun wanted to talk to you (I assume you are white, forgive me if I am wrong) with another guy in the back of the pickup truck. And you have no gun.

You would stop and ask him what he wants?
