This week should be a lesson for us as Americans to realize what is self defense and what is not self defense. Kyle Rittenhouse defended himself and there was evidence to prove it, while the Mcmichales failed to prove that they were defending themselves. I think we can all agree on that.
@@metalrockstarizer89 Rittenhouse after the lights go down and the curtain closes will regret going to that protest armed for the rest of his life.

@@xino_z Oldest trick in the book to dehumanize the POC victim. IMO she was trying to reach one potential juror that might be racist and have them side with her client for a hung jury. She should be disbarred for that BS IMO.
Somebody in Georgia needs to file a state bar complaint against the blonde female lawyer who tried to dehumanize the victim by talking about his “long dirty toenails.“ There have to be ethical constraints against such racism, especially when it has absolutely no probative value in a case. I mean, did the victim attack her client with his toenails? The prosecutor in this case was absolutely AMAZING! I prosecuted for five years, and I know quality lawyering when I see it.
@@ammocan2796 3 racists traced down a man for the crime of being black and shot him like a dog in the street. Everything here is going to be about race.
I smiled...cause that is going to be a everyday thought for their remaining life along with why did the neighbor turn in the videos he recorded. That was the nail and hammer for all three.
That’s called wisdom. I pray for it every day so I don’t make stupid unnecessary detrimental life decisions. All they had to do was mind their own business, he would still be here and they would be enjoying the holidays with their family. When they killed him, they killed themselves.
Hearing "We the jury find the defendant Travis McMichael guilty" felt so liberating and so amazing like music to my ears; the same for the other two pathetic excuses for a human being.
I was wondering why the McMichaels wife and daughter. Haven't been charged with aiding and abetting, abuse of a corpse, and hate crimes! They went and took pictures of Mr Aubrey's body and death! Then they went back home before the police showed up!
They were arrogant to think that they had the right to stop Mr Arbery and if he refuses to stop, to shoot him and kill. These guys were so dumb. How can anybody stop anyone on the street and shoot to kill if that person does not stop. This must have been the easiest case for any prosecutor.
well, as long as you think they committed a crime... then you can do whatever you want! Man, I can't wait to use these nutjob logic and detain anyone I want..
A charge of felony murder might as well be a matter of strict liability, where the prosecution only has to prove that the incident did indeed happen, and that the accused is culpable. Even if Travis was ultimately acquitted of Malic Murder, he would still be facing a life sentence because felony murder is typically sentenced as though it was murder in the first degree.
Wouldn’t be a first. Just think back to George Zimmerman. A grown ass man with a weapon stalking and accosting a hound unarmed black boy and gets away with murder? What’s new? At least they didn’t try to plant skittles and Arizona tea on Ahmad
Poor Mr. Ahmaud. To be murdered like that. Just horrible. I appreciate that my fellow whites on the jury stood up for the truth. Maybe we are slowly bending the arc. May you, your children and theirs live in an increasingly just world. It's horrendous that we aren't yet there. 🌹
That moment when you realize you are going to spend the rest of your life in prison due to a few minutes of utter stupidity......not one I would ever want to have.
Remember-they were able to live their lives for several months after killing Ahmaud. And they would have gotten away with murder if their friend wasn’t recording.
not saying it shouldn't have been recorded, it's good it did, but I sure do miss the days when EVERYTHING wasn't recorded and broadcast in real time. Maybe this will make people think twice about needing to pull their phone cams out for every gatdamn thing.

If only all of our judges were like this one. He was fair and compassionate, and exactly what we need right now. In the end, these men gave up their lives to take the life of another. My heart aches for the Arbery’s; to have lost a child, let alone in this manner, is horrific. We all deserve to be treated with humanity. I’m sad that people have such hate in their hearts. It doesn’t have to be like this. It shouldn’t have to be like this.
AA died the death of the wicked Ms.Cruz. He was a thief who's bad decisions not only cost him his life, but three other men's lives now as well, and his mother owes all of America an apology for having him and what he's put our country through. She should be ashamed for having him, my parents would have been of me.
i agree! i hope this is a warning to all the KKK/NRA white supremacists that you may not get away with it next time. this judge was fair...and the jury showed they were in it for the right reasons....unlike the proud racist judge and a rittenmouse jury...who is having dinner with trump tonight!! let that sink in!
Too bad the jury in the Rittenhouse case didn't consider this. Rittenhouse provoked the chaos that led to him shooting his way out of a fight he provoked
@@Sonyag1 crazy how every shred of video evidence shown in that case including FBI drone footage showed Rosenbaum initiating the chase after he hid behind a car, covered his face with a shirt and ran after Kyle after the walked by him screaming “fuck you” dropping the n-word and threatening to kill him multiple times. 🤦🏻♂️

@@Sonyag1 Did you WATCH the Rittehouse Trial? Because im pretty confident the only people who were surprised by that verdict either didn't watch that trial or they are basing their opinion on it entirely within the realm of partisan politics. You should take a legal reasoning class.
So we can only hope that it's clear to everyone that if you make a citizen's arrest without reasonable cause you do not have a right to claim self-defense when the person you're stopping resists. Call a cop! That's what we pay them for.
And to add to that point if the person you stop is armed and they kill you they have a great self-defense case. Being a vigilante is not only stupid, it’s dangerous. And if you are these guys, don’t drop the soap.
I just watched the closing statements of the states attorney and was so impressed by her manner of conveying the law as it pertained to this case. She spelled out the law with regard to each indictment succinctly and proved without a doubt the guilt of each of the defendants. She was stunning.

This was a miscarriage of justice! So apparently, if someone is burglarizing a residence, and you try to stop him, the burglar is allowed to take your gun and try to shoot you with it, and if you dare defend yourself, then you're a murderer.
Unbelievable that these tyrants evaded arrest for so long. So sad to see how many people supported these clowns and tried to justify them murdering Arbery. Let’s hope that it will help to make a better and safer community, where behaviour like this won’t be tolerated. To Arbery’s family so sorry for your loss and god bless you
had they not stupidly released the video in an attempt to win public support, they probably could've gotten away with it. the police looked through mr. bryan's phone (where the video was captured) and did nothing with it. and there was almost no will from local authorities to investigate further. just shows you how cozy they were in their privilege
all of the damning police testimony came from body cam and same-day interrogation footage - they felt so at-ease that they detailed every move they made in their illegal pursuit and armed attempt to detain arbery. from the prosecution's point of view, this is a straightforward, open-and-shut slam dunk. yet the da just sat on the evidence from day one and then recused themselves under a cloud of suspicion
@@360.Tapestry These guys thought they where home free and patting themselves on the back for a job well done. Thank god for the camera footage otherwise they would have walked for sure.
I' m relieved at the verdict but still so sad at the loss of Mr. Arbery and his family and friends. A senseless, cruel loss of a young man in his prime.
The father Gregory McMichael told the cops after this happened that they "trapped him like a rat". Well, now THEY are trapped like rats. Justice is served!
Hundreds of murders across the country each and every day, and they shouldn't happen. Only certain ones people care about. Just depends on the races involved.. that determines if it makes national news or not. CNN is trash. They cause a lot of America's division..
I am an attorney in the state of Georgia, and I would like to DEBUNK a "defense" I've heard of the three men convicted of murder. I am hearing in some circles "My. Arbery is on tape criminally trespassing a property moments prior to the three men giving chase. Therefore, they had probable cause for an attempted citizen arrest, and probable cause to brandish weapons while chasing him because they suspected he was a criminal fleeing the scene of a crime." Here's reality. In the state of Georgia, "criminal trespass" requires "evidence of material property destruction, theft, or aggression". There is no evidence Mr.Arbery destroyed, damaged, or stole anything from the home under construction. In fact, the builder states he DID NOT steal or damage anything. That leaves only "aggressing the property". In Georgia, "aggressing a property" is defined as refusing to leave private property when requested by THE OWNER of the property. Mr.Arbery had never been confronted by the owner of the property at all, so he obviously had not yet been requested to stay off the property. Therefore, Mr.Arbery HAD NOT met the definition of criminal trespass in the state of Georgia merely by looking around a homesite under construction with nobody yet requesting him to stay off the homesite. So Mr. Arbery was not "evading arrest" or "fleeing the scene of a crime". Legally, all the cops would have done is retain him long enough to contact the owner of the property, at which point the property owner could have initiated a request to not enter the property. And since the property was not occupied yet, with no personal valuables and only some raw building materials laying around, it's extremely unlikely that the police would have had sufficient evidence to charge Mr. Arbery with the presumption of attempted burglary, ESPECIALLY since he's on tape taking nothing when exploring the build site. So what we have here is a citizen (Mr. Arbery) who had committed no crime under Georgia law, who at most was facing a warning from the police or homeowner to stay off the build site. And ignorance of Georgia law is not a defense. Meaning, the three defendants have no legal defense for their actions by saying "We thought exploring a build site was a crime". With no prior warning to stay off the property, it WASN'T a crime, and it is their legal responsibility as citizens of Georgia to know Georgia law. Therefore, what we have here is a man guilty of no crime whatsoever (Mr. Arbery) who while running down a public roadway just 2 miles from his own house, suddenly finding himself chased by three armed strangers in pickup trucks. By their own admission, they made clear verbal contact with Mr. Arbery when they requested he stop and explain himself, and Mr. Arbery declined to engage them verbally which was his right. Most importantly, if the three defendants were trying to maintain visual contact with a suspect they (wrongly) suspected of a crime until police arrived, they could have done so from inside their vehicles. THE CLEAR escalation of this event was when the defendant stopped his vehicle in the middle of the road, and got out of his vehicle armed with a shotgun, claiming "self-defense" from an unarmed man who had tried to flee him for 4 minutes on foot, had committed no crime, and had already tried to disengage from conflict with the men. At that point where Mr. Arbery is facing armed strangers stopped in the middle of the road exiting their vehicle with a shotgun after trying to flee from the armed strangers for 4 minutes, Mr. Arbery had FAR more of a "self defense" claim in going for the defendant's gun than the "self defense" claim or "citizen arrest" claim of these men chasing a criminally innocent citizen legally on a roadway trying to flee them. Regardless of how much Mr. Arbery's skin color did or did not motivate the defendant's aggression, the fact remains that all three men engaged in behavior that DRAMATICALLY escalated a minor police or homeowner reprimand for Mr. Arbery, into Mr. Arbery's very reasonable presumption that his life was in danger. Mr. Arbery deserves at most about 5% blame for what appeared to be some harmless curiosity about a build site in his neighborhood (which several other neighborhood white youth were on tape having explored as well without escalation of incident). And these defendants deserve 95% of the blame for taking a very minor issue, and egregiously escalating the sequence of events until it ended in tragedy. All three men played a stupid game with event-escalation. The jury decided for that escalation, they won a stupid prize called a felony murder conviction.
You have no concept of what is a fair judicial process if you think this murder is innocent. If he was black, he would have been killed that night or found guilty by people like you.

@@americastrainerangler3077 the issue with Rittenhouse verdict is having ARMED people at protests or emotional public gatherings.

@@macmen007 Yes it's a new aspect of modern law when things can be recorded in such detail. I watched the various Rittenhouse videos multiple times and they thankfully showed his innocence and watching this one also was pretty shocking. Those guys probably thought they were upholding justice or something but they clearly went way too far and the verdict is correct.
Thing is you need evidence. No evidence to prove guilt or innocence you have to go not guilty. When theres enough evidence to say one way or another then you have to go the way the evidence takes you. You cant just take the word of witnesses. Youd also need dna, video, confessions, weapons, motive and so on. And the media doesnt have a say in whats real and what isnt.

They were arrogant to think that they had the right to stop Mr Arbery and if he refuses to stop, to shoot him and kill. These guys were so dumb. How can anybody stop anyone on the street and shoot to kill if that person does not stop. This must have been the easiest case for any prosecutor.

Man, I can't wait to use these nutjob logic and detain anyone I want..
A charge of felony murder might as well be a matter of strict liability, where the prosecution only has to prove that the incident did indeed happen, and that the accused is culpable.
Even if Travis was ultimately acquitted of Malic Murder, he would still be facing a life sentence because felony murder is typically sentenced as though it was murder in the first degree.

Scary thought. Undoubtedly true though.

@@funkydanieluk MSNBC never accused Rittenhouse of killing black people. But it was about the BLM protests which caused him to be there, to kill.
My absolute respect to the judge
I am an attorney in the state of Georgia, and I would like to DEBUNK a "defense" I've heard of the three men convicted of murder.
I am hearing in some circles "My. Arbery is on tape criminally trespassing a property moments prior to the three men giving chase. Therefore, they had probable cause for an attempted citizen arrest, and probable cause to brandish weapons while chasing him because they suspected he was a criminal fleeing the scene of a crime."
Here's reality. In the state of Georgia, "criminal trespass" requires "evidence of material property destruction, theft, or aggression". There is no evidence Mr.Arbery destroyed, damaged, or stole anything from the home under construction. In fact, the builder states he DID NOT steal or damage anything. That leaves only "aggressing the property". In Georgia, "aggressing a property" is defined as refusing to leave private property when requested by THE OWNER of the property. Mr.Arbery had never been confronted by the owner of the property at all, so he obviously had not yet been requested to stay off the property.
Therefore, Mr.Arbery HAD NOT met the definition of criminal trespass in the state of Georgia merely by looking around a homesite under construction with nobody yet requesting him to stay off the homesite.
So Mr. Arbery was not "evading arrest" or "fleeing the scene of a crime". Legally, all the cops would have done is retain him long enough to contact the owner of the property, at which point the property owner could have initiated a request to not enter the property. And since the property was not occupied yet, with no personal valuables and only some raw building materials laying around, it's extremely unlikely that the police would have had sufficient evidence to charge Mr. Arbery with the presumption of attempted burglary, ESPECIALLY since he's on tape taking nothing when exploring the build site.
So what we have here is a citizen (Mr. Arbery) who had committed no crime under Georgia law, who at most was facing a warning from the police or homeowner to stay off the build site.
And ignorance of Georgia law is not a defense. Meaning, the three defendants have no legal defense for their actions by saying "We thought exploring a build site was a crime". With no prior warning to stay off the property, it WASN'T a crime, and it is their legal responsibility as citizens of Georgia to know Georgia law.
Therefore, what we have here is a man guilty of no crime whatsoever (Mr. Arbery) who while running down a public roadway just 2 miles from his own house, suddenly finding himself chased by three armed strangers in pickup trucks. By their own admission, they made clear verbal contact with Mr. Arbery when they requested he stop and explain himself, and Mr. Arbery declined to engage them verbally which was his right.
Most importantly, if the three defendants were trying to maintain visual contact with a suspect they (wrongly) suspected of a crime until police arrived, they could have done so from inside their vehicles. THE CLEAR escalation of this event was when the defendant stopped his vehicle in the middle of the road, and got out of his vehicle armed with a shotgun, claiming "self-defense" from an unarmed man who had tried to flee him for 4 minutes on foot, had committed no crime, and had already tried to disengage from conflict with the men.
At that point where Mr. Arbery is facing armed strangers stopped in the middle of the road exiting their vehicle with a shotgun after trying to flee from the armed strangers for 4 minutes, Mr. Arbery had FAR more of a "self defense" claim in going for the defendant's gun than the "self defense" claim or "citizen arrest" claim of these men chasing a criminally innocent citizen legally on a roadway trying to flee them.
Regardless of how much Mr. Arbery's skin color did or did not motivate the defendant's aggression, the fact remains that all three men engaged in behavior that DRAMATICALLY escalated a minor police or homeowner reprimand for Mr. Arbery, into Mr. Arbery's very reasonable presumption that his life was in danger.
Mr. Arbery deserves at most about 5% blame for what appeared to be some harmless curiosity about a build site in his neighborhood (which several other neighborhood white youth were on tape having explored as well without escalation of incident). And these defendants deserve 95% of the blame for taking a very minor issue, and egregiously escalating the sequence of events until it ended in tragedy.
All three men played a stupid game with event-escalation. The jury decided for that escalation, they won a stupid prize called a felony murder conviction.
🤐

Condolences to the family. The judicial process was fair.

When not minding your business goes wrong. Justice Served 👍
Georgians! You have again restored our faith in humanity. Thank you! Thank you!
As has mine for Wisconsinites!
Such is life. The system works at least
@@monkofdarktimes
Sometimes it works...
I'm as happy about this result as you are, and I really hate to rain on your parade, but as they say, even a broken clock is right twice a day... there's a long way to go before we can say it's all good but at least tonight we can go to bed knowing that the system didn't fail us this once, and that good, even if it's just for today
I think that was his Dad who stood up and shouted "wuuuuu, a long time coming." as he should... blessings to all and much love.
Yes it was his father. I understand having to ask him to leave the court room for sake of decorum, but I hope he was somewhere where he could hear each and every guilty and cheer to his hearts content.
What does that even mean? The verdict is a referendum on racial justice?
@@etmeyutub his son was murdered and people were held accountable. It took way too long for this case to even be heard let alone tried with convictions. I can only imagine every day felt like an eternity.
@@shaylah7389 I agree, but I felt his wuuuu for a moment. This case was swept under the rug for months.
@@jjonezy504 agreed. That was a deserved release.
I think the person cheering at the start was an appropriate response.
We all felt it
yeah, it was Arbery's father.

He didn't care about being escorted out....💃😂😂
Possibly last time in their lives to wear a suit, or anything not orange and government issued. Hope they enjoyed it.
It's good to see and hear a competent, respectful, professional judge for a change.
Amen!
That was such a relief from listening to the Democratic leadership and left-leaning MSM!
True. The judge in the rittenhouse trial was very unprofessional to say the least.
Amen
It's good to hear ret**ds like you throw a fit and blame the judge when the verdict doesn't turn out the way you want instead of blaming CNN and MSNBC for lying to you about the case and getting your ignorant hopes up.
Just woke up in Aus to see this verdict and I’m so glad! Ahmaud was murdered for no reason and I hope these guys rot in jail for the rest of their natural lives. Nothing will bring him back but justice is deserved for the family at the very least 💜
As I did in New Zealand, the world was watching this trial and it showed that not all hope is lost in the United States.
@@diannechallis4080 How I feel about New Zealand.
@@diannechallis4080 like wise in thought and belief, great day for American justice and democracy
Thank you people of Brunswick GA. You have restored my faith in humanity and in our system of legal justice.
This is how justice should look like regardless of race.
Amen
Such a senseless murder!They deserve every minute of there sentence!
we don't know if he committed a crime, but we thought he did something wrong so we chased after him with a gun and try to illegally detain him.
Man that defense is the best
This is a respectful judge all three is guilty
The prosecutor did a magnificent job 💕👌👍
She did her job, that's for sure. This case definitely carried itself. Can't really see any verdict but guilty.
so glad this was a fair and just judge he was clear and level headed through the whole trial wish there were more like him
Agreed, unlike the totally biased, unprofessional judge in the Rittenhouse case, that guy should be disbarred.
Youre literally only saying that because you got the result you wanted.
@Chanting In The Dark
I feel that the Judge in the Rittenhouse case as well as this one did the job well and the verdicts were accurate based on the evidence.
I’m curious, do you not like him exclusively because of the verdict of the case or some other reason?
@@shakti666 if you watched the entire trial you would know he was fair to both sides on multiple issues
@@shakti666 are you saying the outcome in this case wasn't right either?! I'm sure you would of found a reason to find these men not guilty as well.
Seeing Ahmaud's mom's face breaks my heart, you can see her pain, she may be pleased to know her son's murderers are going to pay for their crimes but it's a bitter sweet feeling because her son is dead and nothing can bring him back.
These wannabe vigilante criminals will now what it’s like to be scared now, Ahmaud can rest now
I doubt Fox News covered this trial though. Probably not going to tell the verdict to their viewers
@@Jack0fAllTrades if they haven't found guilty they would be at mar a Lago Taking a photo op
Those three men won't survive in prison.

Never felt like they were in danger. Was not fearing for his life but chased down an unarmed man and killed him. Hope they go away for life.
I agree with you
They each have 2 or more mandatory life sentences.
Its just a matter of parole or no parole
He said Ahmaud was "trapped like a rat". Now going to prison he'll be caged like a bird.
well said. Video can be a two edge sword.
Ok what was funny is when when the defense attorney for video boy said "he only had a high school education and for these parts that's not saying much"
what a dope.
I hope they rearrange his fart box
And to think this could’ve all been avoided if they just stayed at home. These idiots thought they’d get away with hunting a human. Sickening.
They deserve all that they got, they took an innocent man’s life for being a Blackman. Hatred for someone different in colour has now cost them their freedom.
As it should, every time. Start actually throwing them in jail and maybe that will be a deterrent to lynching
How do you know it was racially motivated?
Anyone who disagrees with the verdict is an EVIL as the MONSTERS who MURDERED this fine young man.
Wowww th-cam.com/video/FSSFgWlDbJU/w-d-xo.html….
I feel the same way about about Kyle Wittenhouse verdict.
@@americastrainerangler3077 the issue with Rittenhouse verdict is having ARMED people at protests or emotional public gatherings. The fact that some of the people he killed where also armed with weapons and hit him helped him.
It should be made unlawful for anyone to bring weapons to public gatherings especially with the possibility of defeating opinions and emotions running high. Leave the guys at your own property
A riot should not be called public gathering. They torched a car dealership. How is that simply a “gathering?”
Bit much.
These GROWN men should be teaching the youth life lessons, not chasing them down and killing them. Rest easy Ahmaud.
I like how They all look so said and hopeless. Where was this emotion when chasing down and killing a man.
And due to Georgia’s laws, felony murder has guaranteed life in prison, the judge’s hands are tied. Given their age, even if they are allowed to appeal for parole, their lives are over.
Yes !!!!!! Over.....there lives were trashed with Hate....so they never truly had a bright happy life
@Berny Aver so you're upset about the verdict I guess.

Thanks captain fucking obvious.
Wow, every once in a while, justice still sneaks through in this country. But it's still an endangered concept.
It will continue to happen; This particular case had a video.
@@macmen007 Yes it's a new aspect of modern law when things can be recorded in such detail. I watched the various Rittenhouse videos multiple times and they thankfully showed his innocence and watching this one also was pretty shocking. Those guys probably thought they were upholding justice or something but they clearly went way too far and the verdict is correct.
Thing is you need evidence. No evidence to prove guilt or innocence you have to go not guilty. When theres enough evidence to say one way or another then you have to go the way the evidence takes you. You cant just take the word of witnesses. Youd also need dna, video, confessions, weapons, motive and so on. And the media doesnt have a say in whats real and what isnt.
Kyle is FREE HAHAHA
Let’s hope they get life time sentences.

I have been watching this case everyday and I have learned a lot ,MS LINDA HAS USE HER LAW EDUCATION TO THE FULLNESS
This judge’s professionalism was off the charts this entire trial, kudos. Now, let’s go after the people who delayed/hampered/subverted justice for so long. If it were not for these videos……in the future video will be less available for “justice” I’m sure they’re learning this now.
This was race and intimidation that worked no back bone

This process made me even more proud to be a Georgian. Justice, Truth and Moderation.
It took 74 days for charges to be laid. Two District Attorneys have been charged for failing to press charges because apparently they were heard saying there was nothing worth laying charges for. How is that proud to be from Georgia? Good Grief!!!!
@@maryjeanjones7569 one step at time sister
Yeah thanks to Georgians this happened so give it up to you guys because if it was left to the justice system without you guys protesting it wouldn’t have ended well for the family. People demanded justice!
Except it almost didn't happen. I'm grateful the racist deep state is exposed by both these trials.
I'm finding a greater respect for Georgians to start righting the systemic wrongs that have been perpetrated against people of color for centuries. Maybe the rest of the country will take heed and follow their lead. Justice has only been partially served. Those two D.A.'s must also be prosecuted and punished.
" i had him cornered like a rat" part of the joy in ganging up on people, is for a brief moment in time, these people feel connected and less lonely.
It's hard to be happy considering it never should've happened in the first place
This is how a professional, ethical judge behaves.
Lemme guess- you think the Rittenhosue judge didn't despite all the bullshit that the prosecution tried to throw at him?
🤣🤣🤣
Lol okay budd this was all about race
I agree, a very level-headed judge.
Let's start healing as we empty their pockets at the civil court. No mother deserve to watch her son slaughtered by deplorable cowards. My condolences to his family.
