But I don't think this is a good take objectively. And I don't think you think it is, either.
He brought a murderer the murderer's gun. Said murderer wasn't in a dove field. He wasn't at a range. He wasn't confined to a place and needed his weapon for self defense. If you had a kid, would you advise him against taking a teammates gun to him at a bar/club late at night? Yes, you would. And why? Because the recipe is a bad one and everyone knows it. At ABSOLUTE MINIMUM, he did a reckless and irresponsible thing. At ABSOLUTE MINIMUM he didn't think through the consequences of his actions despite 50 blaring red warning signs going off to any reasonable person.

Article clearly sates that Miller's car was struck with gun fire during this time, so no.

Actually, I would tell him to do exactly that. If my kid's friend had been in my kid's car and had left his gun in the back seat, then I absolutely would tell my kid to take the gun back to him. The last thing I would want is for my kid to be pulled over with someone else's gun in his car.
Now, my even more practical advice would be "Don't let your buddy leave his gun in your car," but that advice would only be helpful depending on when in the chain of events my kid were to reach out to me.

He took him his gun at an apartment complex. I don't know where any of these guys live, so I couldn't tell you who's apartment that is.

ETA: I know it isn't the victim's apartment, because her and her boyfriend aren't from Tuscaloosa, so I imagine someone else involved must live there.

Miles owned the gun, Miles didn't physically pull the trigger, Davis did.
Just want to keep the facts straight. Imo a whole lot of people didn't use their heads that night.

is providing the gun and blocking the escape route 1 assist or 2?

Doesn't really matter. After looking at the google maps street view, I find it hard to believe these guys were "blocking the road" and didn't catch a charge. This article is clearly not using that wording correctly.
It looks like you'd need at least 3 vehicles to actually block all exits on that road.

Facts. Miles was charged with murder.

Fact 2 - Being charged with a crime does not a guarantee guilty verdict
Posted on 2/21/23 at 3:41 pm to LSU Grad Alabama Fan
I understand but the distinction during trial will be made. Also Miles isn't guilty yet. So he isn't a murderer until convicted. Facts.

Yeah his involvement here is clear. Not sure why he decided to drag other people into this. He should have just gone and grabbed the gun from Miller instead of asking him to bring him a weapon he knew was going to be used in a crime.

Fair, appreciate the correction. My point is that I think the chance that Miller did nothing wrong are slim (criminal or otherwise).
I assume he had an idea of how his friends think/conduct themselves and didn't assume when bringing a firearm to a bar at night that there was zero chance it could be used in an act of violence.
Maybe it turns out that the text completely misled Miller into thinking it was an innocuous situation, but it's hard to fathom.

You think same set of facts, but all of the parties are just unknown black men, that a person that had Miller’s level of involvement never gets arrested or charged?
Depends on where the incident happened and the local DA.

Again, the location mentioned in the article is an apartment complex (or maybe a townhome). Definitely not a bar. You can look it up for yourself:

ETA: Since his car was also present during the shooting (some of it was caught on his dash cam), that means he met them there.

Eh. That's splitting hairs. Grace St isn't even big enough to have a line down the middle. If Miller had pulled up to Miles and Davis rather than pulling into a parking spot, then it would be pretty accurate to say that he was "blocking the road." But there is a big difference between "blocking the road" and "intentionally blocking the victim's car the prevent it from leaving."

Basically what you continue to say is,if a guy plays football or basketball for Alabama that makes him incapable of any wrong doing,correct?
