My post was more of a, "let's get some facts before putting this guy in the electric chair," kind of post. But I can see why you would already find him guilty. Quite a deduction yourself. You implied something was off. I simply gave a top-of-mind explanation to connect the dots. You're insisting my position on his guilt. Supposedly you're behaving impartially. So am I. I'm just defaulting toward the victim with the benefit of the doubt, and yours is going the other way. But we're both, of course, being 'objective.' 1

I'm actually not leaning either way, but I can certainly see how that what I said could be perceived that way. 1

I'm actually not leaning either way, but I can certainly see how that what I said could be perceived that way. All good. Thanks for the apology. Cheers. I hope he is innocent, but I hope also she is not lying. It's a lose-lose situation. I mostly wish it never happened at all. 1 1

BillsFan17 Posted June 16, 2020 Posted June 16, 2020 See this is where things get interesting. How do we have sidelines with players like this, kneeling and telling me about moral highgrounds/values? 2
bigK14094 Posted June 16, 2020 Posted June 16, 2020 He had a few great games for the Bills. I was surprised a little when they let him walk and didn't resign. Must have been other issues we didn't see on the field. Sad his life has turned into this situation.

One former player accused of a crime, who never knelt or protested while on an NFL team, casts doubt on the values and morals of all players to you and their right to protest what they see as injustice, amIright? 2 1
JoshAllenHasBigHands Posted June 16, 2020 Posted June 16, 2020 This thread just has it all. "Cause he's black, he's guilty?"; "what about the kneeling?"; "She could be lying"; "believe victims!"

I for one would love to see Chiefs players kneel to protest their teammate beating his girlfriend. Eh, whatever, who care about that amiright????? 4
Hapless Bills Fan Posted June 16, 2020 Posted June 16, 2020 1 hour ago, Gugny said: Something is weird .... the call to the police came from his apartment, but the rape occurred at a different location? That's pretty ambiguous from the op and totally ambiguous from the link I posted from a local paper. "Former Georgia All-American safety Bacarri Rambo was arrested late Monday night on a charge of rape. Athens-Clarke County Police responded to a rape call on Saturday at 1:17 a.m. The incident took place at the Georgia Heights apartments in downtown Athens. Rambo’s address is listed in that complex. The victim is listed as a 21-year old female. Police said that the female is a University of Georgia student, according a press release it issued Tuesday." .... "No further details about the case were immediately available. “The police department does not release the details of sexual assaults unless there are specific details that may provide safety information to the general public,” a police spokesperson said via email “The department is not inclined to release further information on this case.” Sounds as though the incident may have taken place in the apartment complex where he's listed as living, but in a different apartment. 1

First of all, the fact that you were "waiting for this one" is a level of pathetic I can't wrap my head around. If you sit around on a message board waiting, you genuinely need a life. https://www.google.com/amp/s/freebeacon.com/issues/nfl-players-protested-national-anthem-sunday-arrest-records/amp/ And here, more than one more, all who knelt with criminal background. Now please, go find a ***** hobby. 1 1

You implied since one guy who has been out of the league for several years was accused of a crime, no player should be allowed to protest or ask for change. You posted a straw man argument. Try harder Here is an arrest record from 2018. https://www.usatoday.com/sports/nfl/arrests/2018/all/all/ 34 arrests out of 1,696 players (53 man rosters).

Or I pointed out we have criminals on sidelines trying to act like they deserve a moral high ground. Where did i say no one should be allowed to protest? You are trying to push something onto me based on the illusion of what YOU THOUGHT my post meant and what was actually asked. Also, if cops were only killing 1% of unarmed black men, would you be fine with it, since the percentage is so low? Moreover, on a message board, your response is to try harder? For who? Who am I here to impress? 1
