I've been a product of profiling on numerous occasions. The thing about it is that it was by black and white cops all because of the type of car I was driving. They'd pull me over and the first question they'd ask was "who's car are you driving? " Smh

Same. They think if anyone makes more money than them they have to be doing something illegal. Like no I worked hard for my money and enjoy nice things.

So because these cops were doing their jobs and pulling over someone for having illegal window tint (I believe anything over 15% is illegal in NYS) they are targeting you? And before you talk about your BS exemption, not all cops are aware of that when they pull you over. Bottom line, you have the right for your exemption as long as you understand that the cops have the right to stop you and ask you to provide proof of it. 

It is in the computer that I have an exemption. They have confirmed that with me and my lawyer many times. Theres also a sticker that is on each window.  I've provided it to the same cop 7 times in 3 weeks and a different one 5 times in the following month. That is harassment and illegal. 

 

A medical condition is BS? Wow. Youre... Special. Making up things that didn't happen in the games and now medical issues are BS. Maybe you should have left. I'm changing my vote.

Cool. When you comply with NYS laws and regulations let me know.

The exemption is from the state of New York. Wow.. You know what they say about arguing with idiots. You might want to seek mental help. You don't seem to have a strong grasp on reality.

Great humble brag and now I have to ask, what kind of car? :thumbsup:

Dude has been arrested multiple times for DUI and cited multiple times for causing accidents and even leaving the scene of accidents. I didn’t even mention his arrest for unlawful carrying of a firearm. 
 

Me thinks there’s another side to the story here.

I remember @Simonposting about the reasons why the FO decided to cut bait with Lynch. He can confirm but there was concern within the FO that he was showing a pattern of run-ins with the law and that the next one would get him suspended for a long time .

And your the one that thinks police have all your information right up on display before they even pull you over because they saw your car from probably an 1/8 a mile away with limo tint in n it. All cops are psychic and have Eagle vision to see your plate from hundreds of feet away. Got ya.

The Beast left because he was traded.  I live in Seattle and remember when the trade went down.Pete Carroll said he wanted Lynch all along.  Every Monday he called Bubba Nix and asked about a trade.  One Monday Bubba said yes.

 

I think this may have had some to do with it too:

 

Quote

Lynch played his first game of the 2009 season against the Miami Dolphins and played the rest of the season. Beginning November 29, he was replaced as the Bills' starting running back by Fred Jackson, who had the first 1,000-yard rushing season of his career. Lynch finished the season with 450 yards on 120 carries with two rushing touchdowns and did not break 100 rushing yards in a single game for the first time in his career.

The Bills totally screwed up trading Lynch and only getting 2 mid round picks.  My take is if they were set at trading him they should have done it before the draft.  Instead they kept him when his market value was higher & then drafted C J Spiller with their #1 pick.  Once they drafted Spiller, they were announcing to the world that Lynch could be had.  Then they cut into his playing time & further devalued him.  I remember Buddy Nix admitting he wasn't the smartest guy in the room, and his handling of the whole situation affirmed that.

This reminds me of the story from Marshawn about after he got drafted and flew to Buffalo he was looking around thinking where's all the skyscrapers? He had heard NY was a big city! This man is a college graduate.

 

I think he came out after his junior year, so he was not a graduate.  That said, he did attend Cal-Berkeley, one of the top universities in the country.  He may have gone back to get his degree - I have no idea - but not at that point in time.

 

I'm sure the stories are mixed, but it's clear that Lynch was not a model citizen while with the Bills, nor has he been since he left Buffalo.  He's has a number of run-ins with the law since.  The guy was a great player and had some all-time moments with Seattle.  He's also reshaped his image to become popular in ads and other media (I think he does pieces on TNF for Amazon Prime).  I don't think the issues he had with the police in Buffalo were racism-related.  Not to say there isn't racism in Buffalo or in police forces, but Bills players are pretty much revered in Buffalo (and in most places).  Many black players loved their time in Buffalo and some have stayed in or moved back to the area.  I'm inclined to believe that there's some truth to the stories about the Hamburg officer's wife, plus other public incidents with Lynch, such as the much-publicized hit-and-run on Chippewa, that made him a target of the police.

What an ignorant load of crap.

He's already told you that he's got a legal exemption due to a medical condition confirmed by a Doctor, but you couldn't care less.

He already told you that he's been pulled over a dozen times in under two months by the same two guys, but you couldn't care less.

They could easily tuck in, run his plates and see his stickers before pulling him over to harass him, but they'd rather act like #######s.

You could easily read the post and keep your ignorance to yourself instead of insulting him, but you'd rather act the same.

When you have an issue with other people, maybe sometimes the mirror is the first place you ought to look.

And when he realizes that it’s New York State law against a certain % tint and the police have the legal right to pull him over to confirm it then maybe we can have a reasonable conversation. Glad to see you aren’t biased towards the fact that he called me an idiot and you are so against people insulting others here. Let me guess, I’m going to get a suspension for this after being called an idiot and following New York State laws. Got it

Maybe when you realize it's New York state law that there are legal medical exemptions and that the police don't have to pull him over to confirm it, we might have a reasonable conversation. Or maybe if you just kept that obnoxious, insulting crap to yourself instead of repeatedly ragging on other people for no good reason, we wouldn't even have to have a conversation.

As for the rest of your whiny nonsense, it's just more of your same old totally dishonest world-should-revolve-around-me bull####.

The last word is yours; I'm not wasting any more seconds on you.

Possible? Yes. 
Probable? Hardly.

Marshawn has ALWAYS been a piece of work. 

Fair. But if that story with the Hamburg PD is true, that might have ticked up the ol’ odds in the probability department. Certainly possible. Men, particularly fraternal men, have been accused of far worse.
