Personally, I think PA has a higher batting average than most of the others! Wasn't aware people didn't like it. If nothing else the art is way above average...

I know Penny Arcade tends to get the “Not funny, booooo” comments in here, but even when a strip doesn’t make me bust a gut, Jerry’s writing almost never fails to make me grin.

Life in Aggro is too real.

THIS. What I don’t understand is, even if you believe that you recognize someone who has been breaking in, why confront them? And with a gun? They could have called and reported him and MAYBE followed at a distance while staying on the phone to say where he is.

The video evidence is damning, and the police phone call is even more damning, as I’ll explain.

“He was holding ice cream in the comfort of his own apartment, my life was in danger, I had to shoot him with absolute prejudice!”

This looks like premeditated murder. IMO That’s how it should be charged.

“Suicide by redneck.”

Day after day, black people are killed and there’s never any retaliation. George Zimmerman should’ve been put in the ground years ago and these guys should be found in a shallow grave by Christmas. That would be real justice.

Yeah, unless I’m mistaken, they don’t actually need a grand jury, they could file charges right now if they wanted.

Why is that guy recording something that in the first few seconds looks completely normal and boring, while driving? This wasn’t dash-cam footage.

Only white people can claim self-defense while being the aggressor.

Let’s not ignore the that the person with the camera already has it rolling before the confrontation, and they don’t appear to be even remotely phased by what takes place in front of them...

The Glynn County police had the video since they started they started the “investigation”. The guy in the car recording was an accomplice. They had the video and decided that “nope, story checks out... let ‘em go” and someone leaked the video to press anonomously that helped fan the national outrage.

a Georgia prosecutor recommended the case go to a grand jury to decide whether to bring criminal charges.

This was a lynching. Plain and simple. The fact that these Klansmen are still walking free, when the local police know who they are and where they are says everything that needs to be said. And another “grand jury” 🙄 The whole “justice” system exists to uphold the White supremacist capitalist order.

I’d say that this should be investigated by the Georgia Bureau of Investigation and the Justice Department but with Kemp and Barr in charge I will not hold my breath. 

What’s sad is without this video, they likely would have walked, as it looks like the DAs office was doing everything possible to avoid charges.

Holy fuck.

Here is my wager:
