Welcome to Our Forums. Once you've registered and logged in, you're primed to talk football, among other topics, with the sharpest and most experienced fantasy players on the internet.
I've seen no reports that cops ordered everyone to stay where they are. In fact what I read is that the cops were attempting to clear folks out of the area.
I'm not sure what's so hard to understand. Shots are allegedly fired, the cops are called, the cops arrive at the scene or near the scene of where the shots were fired. They start to investigate the area and order everyone to stay still. By reports everyone is staying still. Until one man decides to make a break for it .
In their own account of the incident, the LVPD don't mention anything about officers ordering people to get down and not move.
So if all the reasons that people who are against Bennett keep getting debunked, what does that tell you about the real reason why people are against him?
I don't recall if he was handcuffed. The cop followed us approx 2 miles from the bar/restaurant where we had dinner and drinks. My friend made the choice to only have one beer with his dinner while the rest of us drank for another hour or two. The cop thought he had a slam dunk dui. No reason to make the stop other than profiling.
Please no baiting here. This adds nothing to the conversation insinuating people against Bennett have "other reasons" for being against him. For a guy that references this post a lot, I'd think you'd have at least read it.
Was he white or black and was he a celebrity? All these things matter if we are going to compare such events that are not even close to relation it appears.
They can do something else if they choose. Were they not aware of the dangers and stress before they applied?
You tell your kids that police officers could pull a trigger at any time? This is part of the problem.
Then why do you keep coming in and posting in it? You are free to not come in this thread.
Yes I do, I did not know telling children factual information was a problem. You think stressed out cops should be cut slack instead of relieved of their duties. I think that is part of the problem, but I didnt attack you, I just responded to your comments. Seems some just cant seem to escape the insults.
Seems people who are stressed out should not be employed in a field such as law enforcement.
I didn't attack you, either, but you seem to enjoy playing the victim here. People need to respect the police. They need to cooperate with the police. These are not (or rather SHOULD not) be controversial statements.
Respect is earned, and no, people dont need to cooperate with people trying to bring them down. They can respect the law, which as we know, cops break often. Cops are not the law, they enforce the law, a huge difference. They too have to obey the law. I play the victim? It seems you think the guys with the badges are the victims.
Why hasn't this been moved to FFA yet?
Hey look. We can agree on something!
I said SOME, guilty consciences are not my issue. I should share your link lecturing me with insults, pot meet kettle emoji? You even said you blocked me, untruths are your game. Please ignore me, thanks in advance. Also, please do not PM me any lectures as well.
They should be rewarded and complimented for doing their job? They should be applauded for writing a ticket without problem? I dont applaud my children when they go to the bathroom...but I do get on them when they make a mess. Certain expectations of whats reasonable.
Say its true and that really happened. How in your mind should the cops have handled that specific situation?
So close.
By not putting a knee in the back or a gun to his head or as he called it, excessive force.
I am not qualified to say how a Cop should be removed...but I would suggests process exist.
Is there a scenario where you see that process being played out via the media (specifically TMZ) and being completed in 24 hours?
No, not likely.
It did, just most likely not the way you wanted me to.
Well given the well reasoned argument you gave to yield respect and cooperation to LEOs, no questions asked.
The LVPD sent a letter to the NFL today detailing what Bennett was doing. Nothing has changed.davearm said:

- Please no Trolling or Triggers. Trolls always do the "who me?" defense when called out. But it's clear to everyone what you're doing when people are posting with the intent of trying to get a reaction. Clayton gave me this definition of Trolling that feels spot on: making a deliberately offensive or provocative online post with the aim of upsetting someone or eliciting an angry response from them. If we feel you're trying to just rile up people and start a fight, you'll be suspended.
This helps the thread? When all else fails and you lose the argument on the message time and time again, attack the messenger. Thats what we have here. Not my fault your points dont hold water and you all have to deflect and attack. Do you know how many links I provided in that Zeke thread? Also, I started this thread to discuss this topic, if anyone ruined it, it wasnt I. Please, lets talk the topic.
I'm not going to point out anyone individually, some comments here appear to present some as prejudging a certain race. I'll let others decide what comments those are. Regardless of the trolling by some and the untruths, I do my best to follow the rules.
