One of the questions that might get answered soon is whether Georgia has decided that you can't just shoot jogging black men for no reason.
It was already pretty well established that jogging white men were off limits, but this could be a breakthrough.
Of course the original investigators thought it was OK. Apparently a man running in athletic ware was a viable suspect for some sort of house burglary. One wonders where they thought he had the stolen goods.
Also, it is, at least in my limited experience, for burglars to jog to the scene of a crime, commit a crime and then jog away. It would indicate a significant failure in planning.
Of course the intelligence of people who believed this would also be in question.
As well as their sense of morality and justice.
I guess the sight of a black man running jolted them back to pre-civil war times when such a sight would definitely have been a problem
Of course back then they wouldn't have shot him, he would have been too valuable to his owner.
Sort of sad that.
