Nothing. To make it worse, the man ran every day and often through that neighborhood.
I’ve kept up with the case, somewhat. At worse, he trespassed on a construction site. That’s worth calling local PD.

Arbery is dead. These three men will spend the rest of their lives in prison. Their children and grandchildren will grow up without them.

For trespassing.

peace to you

Walk in a predominantly white church one Sunday. Go to an all black church the next Sunday. Stay for the meals. Get back to me.
I'm not denying the existence of cultural differences. But I don't know how you are equating race with culture.

Are you suggesting g the White men had a culture of racism because they are White or the Black man was a thief because he had a Black culture because he is Black.

It just seems you are using "cultural differences" to speak about prejudices based on skin color.

Again, you are assuming wrong.

You misunderstand. I'm not assuming anything.

I am asking you what you mean. You say that there are "cultural differences" based on the color of our skin.

I do not understand how this makes the Black man murdered by those people a thief. I do not get how you assumed he was a thief, taking rather than contributing to society. Are you saying Black people are thieves based not on the color of their skin but based on Black culture? I just don't get what you mean.

sigh i did report it like usual things like that were ignored. In fact i reported twice
Then action was determined not to be warranted.

I don't know who he called a racist or the details (and don't need to know).

I never implied color of skin was relevant. You made that accusation of me. I don't recall linking the two. The culture was a side topic. This is another example of your, ummm, well I pointed out to you in a PM.

In the end, there was a man jogging through a neighborhood. This man was murdered because he was suspected of being a thief.

There is no excuse for the murder. There is no way to bring the victim back to his family.

I also learned early in life that there are cultural differences between races... A man is a fool not to recognize and observe cultural differences.
I am asking what these cultural differences are between races.

Stop pretending I just made this up. These are YOUR words. YOU related race to cultural differences, not me.

I am asking you to explain how this young man differed culturally because the color of his skin.

What do you know about a man's culture because his skin is brown?
