Fred Slacks Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 Well my first reaction before the video was “oh no gangster life”. After watching the video I was like “oh no redneck life”. Looks like he just spent the day playing in the dirt on his ATV. Drinking and maybe shooting stuff. A regular weekend activity for me and my family. Obviously one should use more caution when driving. But the headline sounds like it would be accompanied by worse follow up incriminating circumstances. I’m this case it really looks like he was just playing too hard. Hopefully the gun is registered to him. But even if not I imagine it was more of a shooting and blowing stuff up out in the woods type of vibe. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I was trailing someone who had a trailer going out of the lines repeatedly, I would call 911. Drunk driving is no joke. People’s lives are in some fools hands. that is a great point. The trailer probably was flying all over the place. there are so many countless accidents involving trailers— it is what makes this really upsetting to me re the risk that Oliver was creating.

JoeF Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 (edited) 1) Own it 2) If its a bigger issue like an addiction ask for help- the Bills and the NFL both have resources to help 3) Realize its part of Ed Oliver's "brand" now...troublemaker, dumb mistake, criminal 4) Learn from it 5) Strive to be your best self every day No BS, No I didn't do it, no blame other's game. This is totally on Ed. I believe his actions from here will show this is a one time thing. I have faith in this kid.

But come on......ppl make mistakes....he is still very young......I dont think this should dictate how you feel about him personally one way or the other......he will learn from this and move on. How the club treats this will be important......Ed we love and support you....but as a first round pick you are also a foundation piece AND need to grow into a leader for our team. 2 minutes ago, Ridgewaycynic2013 said: Why, bless your heart...

At that point the car belongs to you and the search is on whether Oliver wanted it or not. I couldn’t tell you whether they were hoping to find drugs or not but searching a car like that is common practice and anything you find is fair game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the time in that specific location of Texas they probably do get the drug charge as well. Who said they requested one? It’s pretty standard to do a search incident to arrest in a DUI case. Also, if the truck was towed, the cops gotta do an inventory search to document the contents of the vehicle. Both are standard searches that are well established in case law - neither of which requires a request or consent. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What astonishes me every time I read about crimes/shootings in the US is the cavalier way y’all treat firearms. It’s no wonder the US has so many deaths attributed to firearms... What astonishes me is how someone writing "about the US" in the third person feels entitled to culturally appropriate the southern American usage "y'all" for "you all". Bless Your Little Heart If you want to broaden the scope, from talking about a football player's DWI arrest with an "illegal possession of a weapon" charge add-on (that means he had a weapon, quite possibly a legal, permitted weapon, in his possession while committing the DWI crime), to talking about treatment of firearms in the United States, the PPP forum is at your service 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
