Buftex Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 Lynch might be the world's stupidest human. Didn't we think the same thing about Willis McGahee, and Travis Henry? I gotta admitt, I don't like this, but I also thought the whole hit and run thing last offseason was a bit more upsetting. Possession of a non-registered, loaded hand gun seems pretty par for the course... It really speaks volumes about a persons' character, to hit and run from hitting another human being. I like Marshawn, the player a lot, but this doesn't make me feel warm and fuzzy about him as a person. The Bills better re-sign Fred Jackson, and keep him happy. For all the crap TD has taken here over the years, his track record with "character guys" seems to be much better than Marvs... One thing I do wonder, though, why did the cops stop him in the first place? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steely Dan Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 The actual wording of the second amendment is right on point here since I am certain that Lynch's actions were part of his being in a well regulated militia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trader Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 The actual wording of the second amendment is right on point here since I am certain that Lynch's actions were part of his being in a well regulated militia. Your definition of a Militia (something akin to the National Guard) and the founding fathers definition of a militia are two different things. The second amendment also was just clarified by the Supreme court defind the right as covering all the people not just the people in the militia. The constitutional interpretation of the phrase, "the people", is very inclusive and it is fundamental to many of your civil rights it appears in several places in the bill of rights.

Captain Quint Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 One thing I do wonder, though, why did the cops stop him in the first place? Yeah, the article said that: "when they came into contact with three adult males in a 2006 Mercedes Benz. After speaking with the occupants, they determined that one of the men in the car was Lynch, the Bills starting running back. A field investigation led to the “discovery of a loaded firearm.” UPDATE: Lynch’s lawyer, M. Gerald Schwartzbach, told the Associated Press that Lynch was visiting friends in California and said there wasn’t a traffic accident. Per the AP, Culver City police didn’t return a call requesting information on why Lynch and his friends came into contact with police officers. Sort of ambiguous as to why the cops would approach the vehicle at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1billsfan Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 anyone see the episode of Real Sports on HBO where they talked about NFl players and guns?...most players carry guns now to protect themselves...a lot are scared about what happened to the players who were killed, shotup , lost limbs, and assaulted in just the past year...add to the fact that most grew up in really bad areas and still have family that live in those areas...its easy to say "dont go there" when they now have money and can move there parents and siblings to wherever, but you cant expect them to move there whole families everywhere they go...at some point if these players want to see there families, they are going to have to go back to where they grew up...as for not haveing a permit for the guns, thats just stupid, but I dont know Lynch's history and something might have happened that would not alow him to have a permit...I assume a lot of the NFL players have some kind of a "checkered past"...so there are probably a lot of players carrying without permits...I suggest finding the episode from Real Sports and watching it...its very insightful on how some of these players feel about guns....personally I dont think much will happen to Lynch about this...those of you who think Buffalo will cut him for it are just loopy...carrying a gun in the NFL is just a common thing now...as one player stated in Real Sports..he says that people tell him that the team has security, yes, but they dont fallow him to his car in the parkinglots or to his home or to the resturaunt he eats at...outside of the stadium hes on his own in this world I haven't read this thread and don't know what the consensus opinion is here, but I've changed my stance on players and guns and why so many have them around. I used to think these guys should be thrown out of the league for their stupidity of carrying around loaded weapons...then came that Broncos DB who was killed, the Jags player who was shot and almost killed, Shawn Taylor was killed at home, Steve Smith was robbed at gun point. This is a threat level that many here do not understand. Add in the fact that the economy is in the tank, these players who everyone knows has globs of money are major targets. Does it make Marshawn right to break the law? No way. But I understand him and Plax's motives for wanting to feel more protected for the worst case scenario. It may sound dumb, but from where these guys are from and the amount of NFL players who have been shot (well yes, Plax stupidly did shoot himself but that's beside the point), I have come to understand the issue from the players viewpoint. Hopefully the NFL can have some kind of league wide forum on this because as long as players are young and feel as though their life is threatened when they leave the house, this issue is not going to go away. I'll be ticked off if they just throw the book at Marshawn. These players need a helping hand, not a backslap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not wait to hear what actually happened before sprewing off at the mouth? Marshawn, as far as I know, isn't screaming racial profiling as far as I know and nobody here is either. It's just being brought up as a possibility because the police never released a reason for the stop. I can't remember when a police press release didn't include the reason for somebodies arrest. Your speculation is no better than those speculating it was for nothing but a DWB. DWB is a problem and it seems more so in LA. Nice way to racially profile by saying every black person screams racism for an actual crime. Steely you SOB, it's 9:00am and your new avatar has me drooling for some wings.....

I'll be ticked off if they just throw the book at Marshawn. These players need a helping hand, not a backslap. A smarter move would be for the league to either pay for outright, or subsidize part of, the salary for bodyguards for any player that wants one. If a player feels personally threatened enough that it would put him in a position to willing break the law and carry a loaded, concealed, unregistered handgun, then the NFL (an entity that makes billions and has somewhat of an obligation to protect its own product) should supply some form of protection. I understand that some of these guys still have friends and family that live in areas that might put the player in an uncomfortable position, but if a player feels the need to go there then he should have protection from the league, which would protect the player, protect the league's investment, and keep everybody square with the law. There is absolutely no good reason, based on the money these players and the league makes, that would dictate that these players are on their own with respect to their own personal safety. IMO, it would definately seperate the punks from the ones who are just protecting themselves. If they have the option of having protection, then choose to not use it and end up in a situation like Lynch, it would also make it far easier for the league to dole out punishment.

They know the areas many are from and now with this huge economic downturn it's only a matter of time before another player is shot and maybe killed while being robbed. If I were Goodall I'd have a forum to generate ideas about how to address the issue of player's fear of being targets of people with very bad intentions.

Bill from NYC Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 I don't think they planted the gun I just think they stopped him for DWB. A friend of mine in Rochester Drove a Grand Am and a cop stopped him saying he was thinking about buying one and asked him to open the trunk.

Check your PM for a longer answer. I agree to a point. They owe something to the people that are paying them much more than any debt to fans. The thing is, the team management DOES owe us something. That is why they send guys out for public service, etc. I am not as concerned so much as to whether or not Lynch is guilty in a legal sense. What bugs me is that he is in essence thumbing his nose at Mr. Wilson and team management. We rely on these people to put a good product o the field. They are all we have as Bills Fans. Marshawn can now be classified as a person who pretty much does as he chooses off of the field, unless one is starry eyed and wants to believe that this was the first time he was ever riding around with illegal guns. This is not good. It sets a bad example for other young players on a team with a headcoach who is already weak. Overall, Lynch might not be the worst guy, but in this sense he doesn't give a f k in terms of how he behaves off the field. I guess what I am saying is that while Lynch owes me little or nothing, the feeling is mutual. And, I am already fed up wit his antics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keepthefaith Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 He's a rich, young, famous, probably fearful NFL player who comes from a very bad neighborhood who's no doubt had little guidance from the NFL on how to handle his own security. Doesn't make it right, but it also doesn't make him someone you "throw the book at" either. He's had guidance. All NFL rookies attend a seminar or two hosted by the NFL on conduct. He has an agent and the Bills I'm sure advise their players. He had to agree to the NFL's conduct policy. He saw what happened to Burris. These guys dream on being pro athletes and getting out of the "hood" but many of them can't shed those habits or their friends from the hood. It's a tough transition I'm sure. After last year's scare, he should know better. If you feel you need a gun, get a permit and follow the rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
