Based on Kyles social media posts he very clearly hates liberals but apparently that was not enough to convince a jury he went out to murder liberals.

The relevant factor is who did the chasing and hunting down.
In this case, 3 mother !@#$er saw a Black man on their street and lynched him.
In Kenosha, a rioting mob saw a Conservative on their street and tried to lynch him.
 
Bernstein then began detailing past incidents of racist behavior. Travis McMichael, who fatally shot Arbery, allegedly previously used racial epithets about Black people, and once called them “animals, criminals, monkeys, sub-human savages.”

“Zero [n-words] work with me,” he wrote in a text message to a friend, prosecutors alleged on Monday. “They ruined everything. That’s why I love what I do now. Not an [n-word] in sight.”

Prosecutors say that his father, who was a former cop, allegedly made a negative comment after the 2015 death of Julian Bond, a civil rights activist and former Georgia state representative. “Bad?! I wish he'd been put in the ground years ago. He’s nothing but trouble. Those Blacks are nothing but trouble,” McMichael allegedly told a witness while he was still an investigator for a local DA’s office. The witness is set to testify during the trial.

But in what is perhaps the most disturbing example of racism from the trio, prosecutors allege that just days before Arbery’s murder, Bryan made several racist comments after learning his daughter was dating a Black man.

“[She] is dating a [n-word] now,” Bryan allegedly said in a message. Bryan also repeatedly referred to the man by the racial slur and called him a “monkey,” Bernstein said.

On the day of Arbery’s death, Bernstein said that Bryan told authorities he saw the 25-year-old “running and knew he had to be a criminal.” When asked what evidence he had to justify that Arbery could have been the individual that had been previously breaking into a home under construction in the neighborhood, Bryan responded, “instinct.”

Never doubted that the motive in this case was racism. Not only did they display confederate flags, but there is just no other explanation for their behavior. Unbiased citizens do not go after a guy running in the street, with guns, just because he walked on and off a property under construction. They were assuming much about Arbury that day, with nothing other than his skin color on which base the assumptions.

There were plenty of excuses made on behalf of the killers. Like the Zimmerman case said Arbury attacked them.

I'll ask you directly, do you agree with the civil rights verdict, Arbury was killed because he was black?

The sad part is the guy you still prefer would never have prosecuted this case.

Of course you wouldn't. You probably don't remember a lot of inconvenient facts and instances. Nobody "supported" them as in sending money to their GoFundMe legal fund. But there was plenty of FUD tossed around for the first 5 to 10 pages of the thread. I was going to quote them but there's too many (many if not most were typical @HumblePie and his nonsense legal theories).

Travis McMichael making multiple comments and killing n***ers on Facebook and in texts showed a lot more than the reasonable conclusion that their behavior was based on assumptions informed by race. He clearly fantasized about being a racial vigilante.

Yes I was referring to at the beginning, before that information came out. It was clear early on.

How can that be? This forum is littered with posters who never see racist motives when black people are killed.

Yes, I agree in all the verdicts in this case.

Do the math, Skippy. The civil rights case was prosecuted by the FEDERAL government.

Need any more clues? The guy you still prefer was in charge of the federal government until Jan 2021. That guy would not have prosecuted this case.
