In the UK, people can now exercise outside the home as much as they want. Which will mean more joggers being out and about. And in these times of the plague, some joggers are considerate and give pedestrians a fair bit of distance as they jog past. Others, not so much.
In the USA, an unarmed man was shot when jogging. He allegedly decided to assault an armed man who shot him. This was a few months ago but this has come to the public eye as a video recording of the incident from a dash cam was released. It just happened that the unarmed man was black and the men who killed him were white. Well one man killed him, the other could be argued to be an accessory. There is an argument by some that there was a racial element to this and the crime that took place was running when black. But I think that race should be ignored.
Ultimately the question to ask is if it is right for an armed man to kill an unarmed jogger. As you can see, some think that it is acceptable, stating that he had a criminal past and was seen in a building site before. Interestingly, it has been argued that it was right to pull him over for he crime of assaulting the man who pulled him over. That reminds me of the film Minority Report, but the choice of film name will probably cause offence to some as well.
