But these days, with our players having their own troubles, we can't point the finger. It's frustrating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill from NYC Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 There was a report on Sirius about it. His lawyer says that he is a victim of racism. I can't really blame the lawyer. I would probably do the same thing if my job to get my client off, and people are stupid enough to believe this defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKOOBY Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 I see some weird stuff in Florida and normally the cops just let things go, especially in the Miami area. I would say tripling the passengers to amount of seats is normal here, hacienda ride they call it. That being said, the cops know that if 12 people are in the car / in the Miami area, 1 is packing a gun / 1 has drugs / & the cops are looking for a problem. I'd say the racial pullover reason is the highest probabilty, bar none. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I slight slip and there are broken ribs or pelvis' or whatever. Pinning a cop up, well, he deserves whatever he gets for stupidity alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starks intentionally attempted to hurt a person (a police officer no less). None of our guys did that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 Nah, I say we can still point the finger. Starks intentionally attempted to hurt a person (a police officer no less). None of our guys did that. Unfortunately, one of our guys actually hit someone. As far as I know, Starks' car did not hit the officer (cannot say for sure) FWIW, last weekend was Urban Beach Weekend. There were close to 600 arrests this past weekend on Miami Beach. Every year the Miami Beach police make a lot of arrests during Urban Beach Weekend, which historically has been during Memorial Day weekend.

Hossage Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 The other day I was at the beer store when a 30 year old friend of mine rode up on his bike. Just then a cop car pulled in and hit his bike. He made an agile move to save himself, but his bike was knocked a couple feet. The cop got out and said "Why did you just ride your bike into my parked car and then fall off of it?" We will likely never know what really happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
