Joe Miner Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 We know for certain that the gun was loaded? Technically that doesn't matter. Assuming he actually pulled it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExiledInIllinois Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 Hardy was the first WR taken this year... Right? Just thought I'd add that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BEAST MODE BABY! Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 I would like to thank James Hardy, who pulled a gun on his father on Mother's Day...which led to one of the most brilliant threads on TBD in recent memory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stenbar Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 His father had a reason for being a no-show: he was in prison. Nine years for drug-dealing. So, yeah, I'll wait for the rest of the story. Bingo..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
In space no one can hear Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 Hmm. Maybe Hardy is more like Marvin Harrison than we realized. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eball Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 Forget it Joe. The guy is a Buffalo Bill. With Hargrove, the cops were brutal. With Hardy, the 73 year old lady is not to be trusted, but Hardy is. He doesn't have issues. I just hope that he stays out of trouble in the future. More generalities and assumptions that have nothing to do with what I've posted in this thread. Of course, I've already noticed that sticking to cold hard facts isn't exactly your strong suit. Kum-ba-yah, Bills fans!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VOR Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 Hardy was the first WR taken this year... Right? Just thought I'd add that... No, he wasn't. Donnie Avery (who?!) was. And then Devin Thomas. Then Jordy Nelson. Then Hardy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, I've already noticed that sticking to cold hard facts isn't exactly your strong suit. Kum-ba-yah, Bills fans!! And unfortunately, facts are hard to come by in this story. But that's not going to stop anyone from throwing Hardy under the bus. No sir. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VOR Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 No he wasn't, there was no gun, he was just putting it down because he didn't want it to go off during a fight, he didn't point it at anyone, his father was a deadbeat and he was in prison while he was growing up, he had a permit so its fine, his father was threatening so he feared for his and his families safety, no crime was committed cause the police decided not to press charges, nothing happened because the story is coming from an old lady who lived next door............ Where did you read that Hardy was putting the gun down so that it wouldn't go off? This situation is unfortunate. Not because Hardy allegedly pulled a gun on his deadbeat, drug-dealing, hanging-on father, but because he has elements like this in his life which will make it difficult for him, and keep "pulling him back in." Hopefully he can leave it all behind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Senator Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 No he wasn't, there was no gun, he was just putting it down because he didn't want it to go off during a fight, he didn't point it at anyone, his father was a deadbeat and he was in prison while he was growing up, he had a permit so its fine, his father was threatening so he feared for his and his families safety, no crime was committed cause the police decided not to press charges, nothing happened because the story is coming from an old lady who lived next door............ Christ almighty, you're giving all Poles a bad name - you'd think, with all that's been happening in WNY lately, you'd know better. So how many years did Anthony Capozzi rot in jail because he was positively identified by his 'victims' as the Bike Path Rapist, while Altemio Sanchez lived the charade of an upstanding citizen, free to continue raping innocent victims for 22 years ??? But no, certainly this woman saw everything that happened with total, utter clarity - that is, if anything happened at all. That must be why the police dropped the whole affair.

Joe Miner Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 And unfortunately, facts are hard to come by in this story. But that's not going to stop anyone from throwing Hardy under the bus. No sir. Ok, not solely directed at you, but I really don't think I've thrown Hardy under the bus. If anyone cares to point out to me where I did, I'll certainly apologize. Again, I don't think that saying he showed bad judgment in this situation is throwing him under the bus. In fact, I think I've gone out of my way to say I don't think he's a terrible person. If anyone finds a post where I said anything more than this was bad judgment or irresponsible behavior on his part, then by all means show it to me. I don't think that's what I've been saying, so if that's what people have been reading, then I should probably clarify my statements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chilly Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 You're a former cop. You of all people should know the reliability of uncorroborated witness testimony, even first-hand. And that's not defending Hardy. That's criticizing all the people that know exactly what happened based on nothing more than third-hand uncorroborated witness testimony... Stop defending Hardy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrDawkinstein Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 I heard Hardy busted into the war room on draft day after he was picked, and held a gun to Jauron's head and insisted no Olinemen be taken. i blame him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramius Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 Stop defending Hardy what would you know, cop hater? Look at hardy's history. he beat his girlfriend, and then beat his infant son with the phone. i'm sure he's done this in the past as well, and has probably beaten other girlfriends and other infant children that he has. At the BBQ, he probably was going to kill his dad, his mom, and everyone else. If it wasnt for the heroic old 73 year old lady, there'd probably be upwards of 1500 dead in that neighborhood, all due to james hardy. He should be put where he belongs, in a cell with cedric benson. then they can talk about beating cops and beating and killing family members.
