While others are crowing about the convictions for Ahmaus Arbery's murderers, you won't find me among them. The case went through two local prosecutors before the state took over. Arguably, the first prosecutor actively tampered with the case to prevent these men from standing trial.
For my friends on the right that are using this case to suggest that racism doesn't exist - please stop. This trial might never have happened if the video had not been leaked.
For my friends on the left that maintain that America is a racist nation - please stop. When given a chance, a jury of mostly white jurors convicted these men based on the evidence at hand This is not the exception, it is the rule.
