Meh, besides looking at gunbunny pics, what else do we use OSA for? Oops, forgot the classifieds...

Everyone involved made mistakes.
I wouldn't place a bet with you if I was guaranteed to win.

Ha! I'm guessing 95+% of internet content fits that description (maybe closer to 99%)...
Not necessarily directed at you, but I don't know why most people are so quick to take the opinion of lawyers as the gospel/end all be all of the law. In almost every legal case, criminal or civil, one side's lawyer is wrong.
Other than that, the only opinion I have is; this thread makes my head hurt.
Not necessarily wrong, but perhaps not as persuasive as the other side’s lawyer.
You ever wonder why a "legal opinion" has the second word as an integral part of the phrase? It reminds me of the "practice" of medicine.
I try not to think about it all that much, cause that also makes my head hurt.
When someone who knows the law breaks down a particular law like Colion did, it lays a lot more credibility than someone else trying to make a counter argument based their opinion of the person who was killed. Not to mention Colion prefaced that he made his opinion based on the available evidence. As I said before, unless evidence comes to light that the McMichaels had knowledge that Arbery committed a felony, their actions were the catalyst that caused the chain of events that lead to Arbery's death. If the driver had not stepped out with a shotgun I would be more willing to entertain the thought that Arbery was somewhat at fault for his death. But as soon as the driver came out with a shotgun, even if he didn't point it at Arbery, its a display of force while trying to illegally detain Arbery. They were the aggressor, they were in the wrong and ultimately they are responsible for the outcome.
Can a jury find them innocent? Hell yeah, a jury let OJ off, so anything can happen. Do I put their chances good at being cleared? No, in fact I put it at slim.
Well...if...this was a court of law...and I was on the jury with all presented.....
Those two men will be facing old sparky ....For Murder 1
This is not the Baby Crayon ... G. Zimmerman case where it is clear.
They had No Reason to detain him.

You're certainly welcome to your opinion, just the same as everyone else, but it's just that, an opinion. Any attempt to paint it otherwise is futile, cause it just ain't so.
Nobody in this thread knows jack **** about this incident other than what they've seen in a short video clip, on the news or on the youtubes, for cryin' out loud. Yeah, I bet several appeals courts depend on the youtubes for the legal basis of their rulings too.
The fact that some people have chosen which of these two hills they want to die on with no more factual information than that is just beyond me. This is why the court of public opinion has no legal standing in the justice system.
Ya'll carry on though.
Interesting info on the dad involved.

The former police detective whose actions in the fatal shooting of Ahmaud Arbery in Georgia were defended as a citizen's arrest was stripped of his law enforcement certification and power to arrest a year before the deadly encounter, according to personnel records acquired by The Washington Post.
Gregory McMichael's certification was suspended in February 2019 after repeated failures to complete required training, according to documents from the Brunswick Judicial Circuit District Attorney's Office, including a warning in 2014 that McMichael had neglected to finish mandatory firearms and use-of-force courses.
