And if Philando Castile had just followed the racist cop’s orders (you know, the SECRET orders that he only said inside his own head!), he might not have gotten murdered while following every SPOKEN order the racist murderer shouted in “fear”.

Seriously. I can’t even bring myself to watch the video. 

I can’t begin to process the emotions going on in this interaction. This woman is willing to give her own life for her grandson in this moment, to become a human shield.

JFC...that statement hits hard

Used to be the advice was to drive to the police station if you thought something was up.

I’m sure many black men would have said, “I feared for my life,” had they ever been given a chance. But since they died, nobody was punished because the white murderer said, “I feared for my life,” which is the expectation and acceptable in Totally-Not-Racist America.

Later, in the video, Anders’ 90-year-old grandmother walks towards Anders and then falls on top of him as officers move to handcuff him.

The Bar for being an attorney in Georgia must be low...literally and figuratively.

For the hundredth time: suspicion of a crime is NOT COMMISSION OF A CRIME!

“Not sure how you can claim self-defense when you were attempting to kidnap someone while armed and they attempted to defend themselves.”

I’ve walked through tons of houses under construction before. Never once had anyone say anything to me. Granted, I’m also white. But yeah, if anyone thinks this justifies what happened to Arbery, well fuck off. 

So releasing it was in defense of the accused, which is why it went to a local conservative talk radio station. And him coming out now is no doubt because people have been assuming he was involved as a third gunman making sure the victim couldn’t retreat, which is somewhat consistent with that 2nd DA’s report, which…

This was a typical, ‘people doing the lynching weren’t wearing racist gear, so therefore it was non-racist lynching’ comment.

President Donald Trump called the footage “very, very disturbing,”- You left out the part were Trump said “ But we don’t know what happened off video.”

Further proving that the murderers were not justified in stopping Arbery. Not sure how you can claim self-defense when you were attempting to kidnap someone while armed and they attempted to defend themselves.

Asked why he had leaked the video, Mr. Tucker said he had wanted to dispel rumors that he said had fueled tension in the community. “It wasn’t two men with a Confederate flag in the back of a truck going down the road and shooting a jogger in the back,” Mr. Tucker said.

The case then went on to district attorney George Barnhill of the Waycross Judicial Circuit, who recused himself only after Arbery’s mother complained that Barnhill’s son used to work with McMichael at the Brunswick DA’s office. Before passing on the case, Barnhill wrote that there was “insufficient probable cause”…

Do you remember when the entire republican party started a culture war because one woman with no functional brain capacity and no hope of recovery had her feeding tube removed? Now those people are screaming that meemaw’s gotta be sacrificed to reopen Olive Garden.

I'd settle for the impact of hitting those jackasses in the face with a brick.

The 76,440th example of right wing hypocrisy doesn’t quite hit with the impact it should.
