All 3 defendants in Ahmaud Arbery murder case....guilty. Good.
Wow. Colour me surprised. But as Sparky said, let's see if there's genuine punishment as a result.

Now we'll have to wait to see what type of sentences they receive.
Community service, which includes Neighborhood Watch. Guns optional. But recommended.
We reach the parts other combos cannot reach
We beach the beachheads other armies cannot beach
We speak the tongues other mouths cannot speak

Guns optional? I don't think you can enter a Piggly Wiggly without proof of being armed.

Yeah, it will be interesting to say the least. All in favor of medieval type punishments say "aye" .

As I've mentioned before our daughter, born and raised in California, moved to Alabama for financial (and love) reasons a couple of years ago. She's shopped at the Piggly Wiggly, told her she's got to take me there to check it out when we go to visit. Visions of "Sling Blade" running through my head!

Alas, they're just like any other grocery store.

Except for the mandatory gun thing. :shifty:
