Candace Owens argues Ahmaud Arbery shooting isn’t about race, draws outrage

In a series of tweets, the frequent Fox News guest suggested Arbery committed a crime when no evidence in the case suggests that it is true

Controversial right-wing commentator Candace Owens is known to draw outrage for her public comments, and her recent statements on the shooting death of unarmed Ahmaud Arbery were certainly on brand.

Owens, who was locked out of Twitter a week ago for encouraging a political revolt in Michigan over its shelter-in-place orders, returned to the social media platform to slam the media and protesters decrying the role of racism in Arbery’s murder.

Candace is right. The black lives matter baloney is laughable. Blacks could care less that 1000's of blacks are killing other blacks a year in this country This because blacks do not value life and they can not deny this fact about them. The only time a life matters to them is when they can make it racial another thing they can not deny. And if they try they are just proving they also have major issues with telling the truth.

So we can just go and walk into any home we want and that's not a crime? That is what the first paragraph of this article is telling us.

here's the problem- why do we all not mind our own business. This sounds cold, but I don't care what happens to people I don't know. Hurt me, my family or my friends- I care. Hurt people I never met before and...frankly, I don't give a rats' behind. Everybody is at each other throats over some event- ask yourself WHY this event is being presented to you and WHY you are being made to care.

"Oh, But I just love humanity" or "Oh, Jesus says I need to love the world"...baloney. You dont care about this dead guy, either- you only have an opinion about it either way so you can use it as a cudgel against the people you hate.

These 2 hotheads took off with every intention to shoot this guy. You know that as well as I do. I know the mentality of these white boys. They should have followed him and called the cops instead of coming to fatal conclusions and reactions. Their life was not being threatened. It wasn't even their property. This was a bad shoot. I hope they go to jail for a long time. Maybe then they can learn to calm down, and not fly off the handle so much. They overreacted big time.If the guy was white we wouldn't hardly hear of this. The media is using this to ramp up racial division just like always.I can hear them good ole boys now, C'mon Daddy, lets go git that ngr!

9:27 - bad guy goes in home attempting to steal stuff - neighbors and homeowner notice - he half runs / jogs (in boots) - homeowner is mad, chases him down and shoots him

This punk was NO Angel he was scoping out the area for theft and was called out on it he then ran around the truck and tried to disarm a citizen and was then shot NEXT CASE .

Below is the entire statement from the homeowner’s attorney, J. Elizabeth Graddy:
"Mr. English wants to correct the mistaken impression that he had shared this video or any other information with the McMichaels prior to the McMichaels’ decision to chase Mr. Arbery. The homeowners had not even seen the February 23 video before Travis McMichael shot Mr. Arbery. When homeowner Larry English saw the photos of Mr. Arbery that were later broadcast, his first impression was that Mr. Arbery was not the man captured on video inside the house on February 23, and he said that to a neighbor.

Even if there had been a robbery, however, the English family would not have wanted a vigilante response. They would have entrusted the matter to law enforcement authorities. On February 23, the English family was two hours away from the Satilla Shores neighborhood andwas unaware of the tragedy that was unfolding. Mr. English was not the one who called 911 on February 23. The only crime that the homeowner has seen captured on video is the senseless killing of Mr. Arbery.

I'm wondering when you buffoons are finely going to catch on to the fact that Owens and her talking head friends on the right and left are not here to inform you or add any real intellectual contributions to the discussion. They are simply saying whatever they feel will rile you up and keep you watching and listening. While they continue to divide us and drive us towards terrible policy ideas, they are all laughing all the way to the bank. Wake up people.

Hahaha! I think the whole thing is funny as hell. Look at the video. It looked like he was running off the plantation and the masta' was after him. All they needed was a blood hound to top it off. Hahaha.

....and all the subsequent comment prove my point. Do you know all the facts? Were you there? Yes, it's never a good thing when someone gets killed...but WHY DO YOU CARE? You don't know these people, you were not there. This is made into national news on purpose, so people can tear each other apart online and make stupid racial comments.."all blacks are this" or "all whites are this"...

It used to be better when there was no national news. when people cared about their immediate towns, their neighbors, Instead of trying to "fix" society and people you don't know, why don't you all mind your own business and fix yourselves. Are you healthy? Are you reasonably productive? How the wife and kids? Hows the relationship with your mother or father?

Instead of working on the things that are important and really matter to your life, you all sit around an argue over someone YOU DONT KNOW. It makes no damm difference what your opinion about this or any other national news event is- and yet you sit there chattering on.

The problem is you people who have no business offering up any opinions because you are low information and don't even know the series of actions that unfolded. First of all the police were called. Secondly arbery who was no more "jogging" in that neighborhood that day then Jesus Christ Himself was became extremely violent towards the man with the shotgun. The man was seen backing off several times in the video and arbery who obvious had very very violent tendencies couldn't control himself and was coming at the man even hitting him in the head several times. This is all on video so no one can deny he was without any doubts the aggressor.
But you know what God is in control and just like Geo Zimmerman the Innocent Baltimore 6, the officer in Ferguson they too will get off. This because God always has the back of the good and the righteous over the lying wastes of air scum like you and the race baiters. a place in hell awaits all of you unless and until you change your liar sin filled ways.

10:23 What English has to say is of no importance. English is a non issue. The point is arbery who had no connection to a property was seen inside of it. It doesn't matter who saw him in there the point is he should have not stepped foot on someone else's property much less gone inside the property. And when confronted he certainly should not have had the very violent outburst he had. He was the aggressor and that is the only reason he is dead If he would have sat down or even kept walking and waited for the called police to come he would be alive He and he alone is responsible for his death and anyone who says otherwise is either lying or doesn't know the facts.

Please don't think God is showering blessings on two rednecks who thought they were badasses and shot someone when trying to take the law in their own hands.

Well thank you Saint cupcake for your input.

I would like to know if the man running had a criminal history? I would also like to know why the two fools who shot him didn’t just call the police if the victim was see committing and crime? Running while black is not a crime. And, do either of the two men have criminal record?

Anonymous said...

Bottom line and the end of the story is arbery was shot and killed because of his own actions and his alone It wasn't his house to go into. When seen instead of running which shows he was guilty of something he should have waited for police who had been noticed and explained his reason for going in. After trying to run away and confronted he should have remained calm instead of going off like a violent rage filled typical ghetto dweller. Blacks and their apologists are quick to blame race when race has nothing to do with it. The reason is because many refuse to act civilized and go all primal on others and that is why they get killed.

Sure 121, everyone should be able to roll up on anyone they think is acting suspicious and hold them up at gun point. That makes for safe neighborhoods and a peaceful society.....

Regarding prior comments; some are up to date and others have only caught snippets from various sources including the spin-happy MSM.

Police were called as father & son began to follow 'jogger' so that his whereabouts would be known when cops arrived.

He had a prior loaded weapon judgement from HS hoops game; he violated his probation by shoplifting a TV. The father was retired LEO who was involved with the failed probation review. He may or may not have recognized the guy. A gun had been stolen from his son's truck in last couple months. So taking guns was prudent decision, especially if he'd recognized the intruder.

Trying to wrestle a shotgun from someone was a fatal decision.

More facts will come out and the mob will discover they hitched their rage to an unworthy candidate.

One can merely speculate whether the father and son's actions would have been the same had it been a white male that entered that empty dwelling that was be being rehabbed. That said, I bet if the McMichaels had to do it over again, they would have called the police and possible followed the individual from a distance to keep responding officer(s) apprised on his location until the police arrived on the scene. But this notion that the McMichaels were simply a couple of southern redneck racists that were out hunting for a black to murder is ridiculous. It was a bad decision that resulted in other bad decision that resulted in a person dying that has a person dead and two people sitting in jail. As tragic as this incident was, since in Georgia entering a dwelling, even an unoccupied one, is a felony, citizen's arrests are legal, in Georgia carrying a firearm without a permit is legal and carrying a long barrel firearm outside is legal as long as it is carried openly, there is a very good chance that if this case goes to trial, the McMichaels will not be found guilty of a crime. Like in the O.J. case, the family of the deceased might have to find their justice in a civil court by suing the McMichaels for wrongful death.
