Hey! I take offense to those stereotypes. Now I'm going to go eat a bagel with lox.

You do your thing, and I'll do mine.

You know. I'm starting to sense that you think I speak in absolutes, when I think it goes without saying that I'm not speaking in absolutes. Perhaps there is a communication issue here.

Watching videos like that reminds you how stupid all these media reports and threads are. It's just a club fight. They happen every night.

OK, let's put it like this. You meet 10 random people from all over the world. 9 of them you like, 1 of them you don't. - "I like people in general". You meet 10 random cops. 3 of them you like. 7 of them you don't. - "I don't like cops in general". How should I phrase my opinions so it's not disturbing to you?

I didn't always dislike them. In fact, society teaches you they are great people. My experiences changed my opinion. I value my experience and feel I have had enough to make a judgement. Am I forcing people to accept my judgement. No. But I don't like cops in general. I don't feel like I need to be subtly implied to be a racist in order to have that opinion.

Under 1%? That's hilarious. Define bad. Surely you don't mean less than 1% are as*holes. Why do I need to defend the fact that I don't like police officers by backing it up? Why can't I just be entitled to my experiences. Unless I could use telepathy to transport my experiences into your head, there's no point in writing them on a Buffalo Bills board.

I am Jewish and I would be fine with that if they had a good reason. There are Jewish stereotypes that I feel are true and I wouldn't blame anybody for disliking "my group" for it in general. I have plenty of experience with police officers. On the right side of the law and the wrong side, as well as when I was just a bystander. There is an unusually high amount of behavior exhibited that I find repulsive. Enough of it that I pretty much expect it at this point. And then when you have to deal with the fact the law is always on their side (despite what the media wants you think), and the hero worship, the dislike becomes more intense. My comments are less disturbing if you took the time to understand them. I find it disturbing you find my comments disturbing without even knowing the basis behind them.

He's correct that I don't like cops in general. I just feel it goes without saying that there are good cops out there. I just get annoyed of having to make disclaimers every time I say my opinion.

Are you calling me racist because I don't like cops in general? Do I need to write a "P.S" at the end of every comment I make saying "but of course, not all cops are bad".

Deadspin only likes you if you're gay or a woman.

Interesting read on McCoy. I also get the vibe that he would run away if it got too hot in the kitchen. I gave him props earlier, but now I wonder how much he was involved, if at all. Someone earlier made a good point that many sections in the police report may be false or made up to make the cops look good. These guys are no longer third-party, and should not be writing police reports based on altercations they may have started off-duty while drunk.

See: Chippewa.

It's a false dichotomoy. In my experience I've dealt with a lot of very sh*tty police officers. The job attracts a lot of ego-driven, power hungry, validation seeking people by it's very nature. The job of a police department is important in a society like ours, of course. But because I might need them to show up in an emergency, does that mean I cannot be critical of them? That I cannot dislike them in general for their behaviors during their other duties? Or in this case, off-duty?

I just don't like them. And if I have an emergency I would expect them to come. Because it's their job.

He's a running back. Let's not act like we need him to be smart. Just know your blocking assignments.

And every cop fighting in a club is honest.

Philly.com is reporting persons on the scene are still waiting for Meek Mill to throw a punch.

Now this is getting really good. Was Dion Waiters there too? Amen. Let's keep it that way.

Even when they lose, they need to find a way to win. Bruised ego syndrome.

Well there you have it. Show's over folks let's go home.

Same. He's no punk.

I love it. Star NFL player and crew kick the crap out of table of off-duty cops over a champagne bottle. That's a 1970's NFL golden age type story. McCoy and the guys beat the cops up so good they didn't even get charged. Damn media had to ruin a great story.

You mean the law made up out of thin air by rich white men. I don't care for it.

Then we can agree to disagree.
