Had a kid killed during the BLM/George Floyd crap earlier this summer. The county attorney said it was self defense but the local trouble makers demanded and got a grand jury to investigate. The GJ came back with an indictment for manslaughter. Not a lot of info in the article but it looks to me like an assault and an armed response. It appears that they are trying to convict the shooter because he said some racist things on social media. I didn't know that was a crime. https://www.gunsamerica.com/digest/...reverses-self-defense-decision-blm-riot/

Grand Juries do not investigate.
Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Give a man a welfare check, a forty ounce malt liquor, a crack pipe, an Obama phone, free health insurance. and some Air Jordan's and he votes Democrat for a lifetime.

Grand Juries do not investigate. You are correct. Poor sentence structure on my part.

There is the old phrase that "a Grand Jury can indict a ham sandwich" Must be what we have here.

I'm curious what carries more weight. Failure to indict by a grand jury, or failure to convict by a jury of your peers.
For even when we were with you, we gave you this rule: "If a man will not work, he shall not eat."

One of the reasons I caution that using a firearm in self-defense, even when it is clearly justifiable, is one of the worst things that can ever happen to you.

Obvious self defense. He was being attacked and managed to save himself by shooting the attacker. How much clearer can you get?

They sre using grand juries to indict folks in order to destroy them monetarily. Doesn’t matter if they’re eventually found innocent their lives are destroyed.
