Can he have his day in court first? Not to inject race into this, but let's remember that it's not unprecedented for the cops to cut corners in a criminal investigation and violate the rights of an African American.

We have to realize that to err is humane and to forgive divine. Look, we know he made a mistake, but we'll need to wait for a court to decide the extent. Thing is, we don't know if the victim didn't jump in front of his car in a suicide mission, or if he had fallen and Dante couldn't see him lying in the road, or if there were extenuating circumstances with the weather, or if he had swerved to avoid the guy but he couldn't because the roads were wet...a lot to consider. As of right now he remains innocent, and there's really nothing more to say.

Look, it's real easy to get preachy about mistakes when we've lucked out and didn't have a tragedy take place when we were stupid. Does that make us better, or simply luckier? Look, he has to have some repercussions, but let's let him have his day in court, find out what the whole story was, before we rush to judgment and ruin his life. Innocent until proven guilty is the 1st step, and if not, I hope he gets another chance to prove he was just in the wrong place at the wrong time to make a mistake. I'm sure he will have learned his lesson after going through such an ordeal.

Look, I know it's a tragedy that someone died, but Dante is still very young and just made a mistake - how many of us have driven over the legal limit before? - so I don't think we need to ruin his life because of one unfortunate incident. He grew up in poverty without many positive role models, and then was handed a ton of money after turning pro and we act surprised something like this happens? Get him some help, maybe take a year off from the game to get some counseling, have him perform some civic duty and raise funds for the family of the victim, and move on. It's not like he intended to kill anyone, plus he's a talented player who has a lot to contribute to the game still. You guys are simply bloodthirsty. In a couple years, after he's been rehabilitated, I say let him play. Hell, I'd like to see him in a Bills uniform if he can help the team on the field.

Juice will eventually be vindicated on appeal from these contrived charges just like when he was acquitted from the bogus murder charges before... Go Bills!! Free OJ!! Let's go Buffalo!!

Buffalo is a great bar town; terrible "club" town. If these guys are looking for drinking districts with great watering holes than Buffalo is the best there is, but if they want the big cover VIP club scene, replete with top dollar women, stretch limos, "bling-bling", and A-list celebrities Buffalo ain't got nuthin' for 'em. ...and good riddance to 'em.

Not sure that him drinking a couple cold ones at a golf tournament 8 months after his arrest for drugs should land him in the clink. I mean, it's not like he was illegally sneaking Hennessy into night clubs, smoking dope in his Benz while carrying a loaded illegal weapon, or denting his car hitting and running white girls after a long night of clubbing with his homies. MJ deserved to be suspended and punished for the coke use, but drinking a cold one at the golf course? Seems a bit much.

This is a very sane and rational move...the TO bandwagoners have clearly lost their minds.

Punishing our nation's young black males has not stopped crime. What stops crime is dialogue, conversation, therapy and nurture...we should be celebrating each individuality not demanding conformity. Marshawn being Marshawn is what makes him special. He'll make more mistakes in all likelihood, but it is our job to give unconditional support for him when he uses unpopular judgment. That's why they call it "building character".

We all do stupid things when we are young. Even 3 years from now he'll still be just 25, and how many of us did stupid things more than once when we we're in our early 20's? He'll get counseling and eventually learn from his mistakes. So he smoked weed with his boyz in a black Mercedes with a loaded illegal firearm? It's all good... a victimless crime. We should also remember that there is a very good chance that if he was white nobody would care. I say, even if he does get into more trouble off the field why should we hold it against him? We have to have some compassion for a young guy from a tough neighborhood who hits it rich. Confusing times...besides, he issued an apology to the public through his lawyer, so why don't we accept it? Time for everyone to chill...it's just Marshawn being Marshawn.

This oughta be that final piece to the Super Bowl puzzle Bills fans were waiting for!!!

Let us remember that the shooter was just 27 years old...young and stupid. How many of us did stupid things when we were young?

When is it time to replace "young and stupid" players with "young and smart" players? Stupidity is no virtue, and if a team is smart they will weed through that before they invest a Top 12 pick. With millions of dollars on the line, and the representation of your team at stake, it would seem to me that being "stupid" or hanging with a "bad crowd" should auto-disqualify a top pick. Lynch is a hard runner when he's not too nauseous to play (or skipping out of the team box at halftime when "injured"), but he certainly ain't all world. He may not even be the best back on his team. You don't get away with what he is doing off the field when you aren't a dominant NFL player, and he is FAR from dominant. Losing Lynch = No big loss. Inconsistent performer, stone hands, poor blocker, stupid, and a nightmare off the field.

Again and again we see a complete fail by the liberals to make a credible argument in defense of the way women are treated in islam. Scrambling and rambling behind the "few bad apples" argument, or trying to point out text from other religions you find objectionable, is the domain of the defeated.

Fixed...that was easy.

OK, so we see that the liberal posters came up short in their attempts to locate any domestic beheadings that were motivated by a religion other than islam. We did get condemnation of religion in general, though said liberals came up short in condemning islam for some unsurprising reason. Actually, I confess, it was an unfair quest you guys unsuccessfully pursued, as I already knew the answer and led you down a path that I manipulated to prove a point. Sorry, it was unfair of me to leave you to scramble knowing you'd come up empty. You see, I have studied islam, studied sharia, studied the hadith and know much of the koran. This doesn't mean I know more than everyone, but I am well versed enough in the teachings to know it is no accident that today there is statistically more terrorist violence in the name of islam than all other religions on earth combined. Thanks for giving it your best shot, though. I especially enjoyed the OJ and Andrea Yaetes reaches to try and compensate for the empty findings. You see, there are legitimate answers to why this is so prevalent in the islamic world. I hate to do the linky thing, but this is a good place to learn the basics. http://www.islam-watch.org/SyedKamranMirza/honor_killing.htm

Very well, how many Buffalonian Christians have beheaded their wives for dishonoring Christianity?

Actually, what examples can anyone here provide of Christians or Jews beheading spouses as an honor killing in observance of their religion? No shortage of murderers who happen to be Christian or Jewish, yes, but how many of them are beheading their spouse in the name of their faith?

Marshawn is the victim of a society that judges rather than empathizes...same goes for the poor moslem who beheaded his wife. Sure people make a mistake or two, but don't we all make mistakes? Look, we have to realize that people grow up differently, with different kinds of friends, different economic situations and different types of cultures. Why must we be so hard on people for simply being human? We should stop being so critical of others who aren't perfect and learn how to support people who are vulnerable to making unfortunate choices. We should take this unwelcome situation and turn it onto an opportunity to learn about making the world a better place. Compassion stops crime, not an unforgiving public that enjoys tearing people down. It's time for us to all unite in support of Marshawn, and any others who find themselves making imperfect decisions, until the entire world realizes that we all can make humanity better one hug, one pat on the back, one tussle of the hair, and one smile at a time.

Hate will get you nowhere.

I guess this is why Ralph didn't hire a GM.

Tom Cousineau?

Marshawn's attorney: "If the blunt don't fit, you must acquit."

Marshawn Lynch aced this pre-draft test, which is why Levy was comfortable taking him with the Bills top pick.
