Of course what they did was criminal. They were charged with disorderly conduct, harassment, criminal mischief and obstructing government administration.
Umm, I'm lost? This is not about Rian Davis actually doing something wrong but him commenting about a case where some other people did something wrong?
I think you did. Im saying when you come from certain places and have a certain skin tone YOU will recieve less respect from cops.
I dont view things as one sided. I wouldn't do that or advise my child to. But they did it and only two people have been charged. The original disorderly conduct (the man that had a record and they immediately went after for starting it but was a participant of the water fight) and video footage of another gentleman (28 years old).
That’s it. Trouble’s in trouble. He probably clubs baby seals, kicks kittens, steals little kids’ candy bags at Halloween, and curses at his grandma.
He’s probably got posters of Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong Un on the wall in his dorm room, too.
Kirby needs to recruit better players, y’all.
When does practice start?
Man do I not care about some cops getting splashed. Isn't there a huge heatwave in NYC rn? They probably appreciated it.
Meanwhile the cop who strangled eric garner to death faced no charges so I'm extra not bothered.
Charged and convicted are 2 different things.
Never said he did something wrong per say just that it is a bad look.
Thank you. I was starting to get worried that nobody was going to toss any gasoline onto what will assuredly soon be a dumpster fire of a thread. I guess all that there is left to do is sit back and roast some marshmallows. Best of luck to all combatants.
Gotcha and somewhat agree. It also depends on where you are and what you’re doing. Most of these kids live in “the bad parts of town”. If you live in one of these places you have to understand cops are trying to keep crime down. Yes there’s exceptions to that rule. Long story short do what you’re supposed to and don’t let yourself be put in those situations.
Saying its a bad look means you felt he did something wrong but none of us know his mental mindset. I also dont think its anyones concerns what the kids views on life is. Most "fans" just want these guys to play and not give a thought to these guys personal lives. Its really a odd thing. You get viewed as a role model until your thoughts as a role model aren't in the mold of the fan.
I get where you’re coming from. I thought it actually was something he did.
Personally I think the kid has the right to say what he wants just as others have the right not to like it.
I personally don’t really buy into the “all cops are heroes” narrative. With the advent of modern technology it’s pretty obvious to me that there’s good AND bad ones, though if we’re being honest I think everyone can admit that there’s always been bad apples.
Thats not true. Im from St. Louis, Mo. Based of the bews and view of my area you'd think its a bad part of the country. It isnt. I also noticed a lot of police from the area had no issues and respect while cops from other parts of town had a hero's complex, disrespectful, and felt they are the highest authority of law. Minding my own business and doing right also got me arrested twice (not convicted but 24 hour hold)_. So maybe I don't know anything... 🤷🏾♂️
Rian also said "I don't see a problem"
It's twitter. I didn't see a problem either. it was hot as balls last weekend. It probably felt good. People have been arrested. If it was really a big issue, and they were really mad...they probably just would've shot those kids and gotten away with it. Instead they did the best they could in the situation and walked away. Now they've gone back and arrested them. Thankfully they didn't get shot. Or choked out.
I don't see a problem.
Ok I’ll agree with you there, and I’m all for him having a different opinion but he probably shouldn’t have posted it on social media for everyone to see. The likelihood is small but say there’s a pro LE booster sees that tweet has a conversation with Coach or doesn’t donate as much next year. His actions effect more than himself.
That’s a ******** comment and I really wish you weren’t a mod.
