Anyone got anymore evidence?
Is it lawful to detain someone with a gun until the police arrive, in that state, if they are under suspicion of a crime?
If not, then that is their crime.
Did the black guy then turn around and try to wrestle the gun from one of the white guys?
Seems unlikely to me, but if he did, then who would blame the other for shooting him?
Them not getting taken in for 2 weeks is entirely separate issue.
It's got nothing to do with whether they are guilty or racist.
I hate to break it to you guys, but you do sound a bit like a mob when you get together sometimes.
And I find myself agreeing with Onlinebiker more and more.
Here's a pertinent article regarding citizen's arrest in Georgia.

A few excerpts:
Quote:"It doesn't go to the point of a person putting handcuffs on them. It goes to the point of that person blocking their movement," Dublin Police Chief Tim Chatman said in a previous interview with 13WMAZ.
Under Georgia law you can do this only if you've actually witnessed a crime...According to published reports on that Brunswick case, investigators found no evidence that Ahmaud Arbery committed a crime or that the shooting suspects witnessed any crime.
Quote:Under Georgia code, Moore says a citizen can use force if they fear for their life, but they cannot create a confrontation themselves and then claim self defense after harming someone. Especially if they did not witness a crime take place.
"It does not allow us to create armed posses and roam the community looking for someone we think might have done something wrong," Moore said.
I wish them luck with that 'citizen's arrest' bullshit.
