  1. While I have questions about the severity of the penalties, I did no hear hate in this mother's vloice at all. She retained composure in a vary emotional situation and even offered empathy for the McMichael family. What was she supposed to do, congratulate Travis for ending her son's life? And make no mistake, when you aim a loaded gun at someone from a distance of at least 50 feat, you have created reckless endangerment. Denying this is the irreducible delusion driving the defense of these men.

  2.  @Scotty_Spacemonsterkiller  If not most reprehensible, then pretty close: Wiki: . . .Travis . . . blacks: "savages" and "monkeys", and additionally stated that they "ruin everything". , , , wrote that a restaurant patronized by Blacks should "change the name from Cracker Barrel to Nigger Bucket"; . . . he loved his job because: "Zero niggers work with me." . . .reacted to video of Black man pranking a white man by declaring that he would "kill that fucking nigger", . . . responded to a video of Black Lives Matter protesters by wishing that he had a rifle to shoot the "goddamn monkeys", and separately called for a vehicle to drive into a group of Black people. Travis repeatedly called her a "nigger lover" for dating a Black man Gregory then said: "All those Blacks are nothing but trouble and I wish they'd all die Bryan stated on 2019's MLK Day that he was "working so all the niggers can take off", . . . describing the MLK Day's parade as the "monkey day parade" . . . . stated that a Black man that his daughter was dating would "fit right in with the monkeys", The Conversation: shows pic of Greg attending KKK rally AP news: Travis: . . . shared. . . story ... two Black customers upset about cold food at a Georgia restaurant, using a racial slur to comment that he would beat the Black people “to death if they did that to . . .my mother and sister.” ...added that he would have no more remorse than putting down a rabid animal. Courthouse News Travis: video of a Black man lighting a firecracker inside his nostril prompted him to comment, “Been cooler if it blew that fucking nigger’s head off.” ----------- Other than committing violence, could it get any worse? If Travis' phone wasn't encrypted, God knows what else was on there.

  3.  @Scotty_Spacemonsterkiller  OK, I get that. But I hope you aren't suggesting the McMichaels should not have been jailed.

  4.  @Scotty_Spacemonsterkiller  "separate issue" Yes, it is. But on Youtube there's such a predictable pattern of tribalism, I was half expecting you to say they should have gone free. I might be a little more cautious than you in describing her comments as giving her soul to hate. It's very common for grieving people to say things like "I hope you rot in hell." It seems losing a child to an act of violence often results in this kind of reaction. In the Kim Potter case, I thought to myself, Duante's mother had obviously completely forgiven her son, a common criminal who did far worse things than Potter, but could not have it in her to forgive Potter. But then I thought, I cut her a complete pass because who am I to criticize a grieving mother. Maybe one day she will. The other reason I might agree with you is because as hideous was the McMichael's crime, I'm not 100% convinced it was malice murder. I see it as more akin to malice manslaughter, if there is such a thing.

  5.  @Scotty_Spacemonsterkiller  Yes, no proof of malice murder in my book. But, it's hard to feel sympathy for racist pigs of the most reprehensible sort.
