Michael Bennett says he was "arrested for being black"

[wiffleball 4,788]

I saw a story from an hour ago about how Russell Wilson is shocked and feels so sad for Bennett. Do these people not have access to the same video and sources that we do, proving this story to be bullsh1t? I don't understand.

If you want an honest answer, talk to black follks. There is such a thing as "Black Twitter" and "Black FB".

It's a pretty easy concept - just like there are L and R wing echo chambers that get created on those things,

there is also a 'black-centric' echo-chamber where they sit around and tell each other ghost stories about how

the CIA invented AIDS and Crack to kill black people, and how public busses leave the lights on to shame black people -

and, apparently, how all these 'poor innocent black guy sodomized by rabid aryan cops!" stories make the rounds.

- God forbid you introduce any facts. You'd be kicked out faster than Bill Cosby at Curves.

Just saw where the NFL said it rejected the request to investigate Bennetts false allegations

Geesus. Though, not unexpected.

I don't see why the NFL should investigate at all. No laws were broken.

Professional conduct was though. But I guess that doesn't matter to them here

[kilroy69 1,216]

I hope they call for a strike of all cops working any NFL game. Either the cops are wrong and need to be put in place or bennett is a liar who is trying to make the cops look bad for doing their job.

 

Don't give me no crap about how they can't. They can suspend Zeke for nothing. They can suspend Bennett for being a race baiting liar.

NFL is clearly terrified of this whole race issue. As they should be. Either way they come down would be a sh!tstorm.

Yep. BLM is the only thing that scares the mighty NFL apparently.

[Alias Detective 1,389]

If only Newbie was here to be slinging racial accusations in this thread.

[supermike80 1,812]

Let me guess the next line of shiit:

 

 

"You don't understand - it's not whether this happened or it didn't - it's the simple fact that in Today's America, it COULD have been true!". - You wouldn't understand because you have 'white privledge.'

Too late. That's exactly what that USA today article said

If only someone mainstream would ask these questions.

[Baker Boy 1,691]

If he was arrested for being Black, why weren't the rest of the Blacks on the scene arrested? Why was he the only Black that was arrested for " being Black". This makes no sense and when people don't call him out it makes them just as stupid as he is.

I am confident there have been times where this happened. Michael Bennett wanted to enhance his message so badly he made false accusations. It's a shame, any credibility he did have is now gone.

[TimmySmith 2,782]

Bennett's biggest gaffe was not realizing that in a casino there are 5 million cameras. But in the BLM world, nobody is interested in the truth. People here still side with Trayvon and Michael Brown, while no one remembers the names of those actually wronged by the Police. Weird.

[Hardcore troubadour 14,964]

He was probably there with someone he shouldn't have been with. Didn't want his wife to find out so he ran. Happens a lot.

[Baker Boy 1,691]

He was not arrested, where did that come from?

Zeke didn't break any laws.

The NFL version of Tawana Brawley.

Something about a team coming to Vegas in the near future.

[KSB2424 3,148]

Look, people exaggerate stories. I'm sure Bennett was scared and all that. Whatever......he's a football player not a rocket scientist.

 

The only thing that irritates me about this whole thing is the media's refusal to report the facts of the story and keep pushing a false narrative. That's borderline criminal to me. It's mind blowing.

[Hardcore troubadour 14,964]

Why would a cop say he was going to blow his head off while pointing a taser at him? A taser can't do that.

[tanatastic 2,062]

This is textbook reason why this movement is so blown out of proportion. He fit the description, they chased, he was released when it was cleared up. His story is more like they captured and tortured him for weeks while saying he was their personal N toy and was gonna die! Cops did nothing wrong and yet he milks it and villainizes them. Next time maybe they let a perp go and he runs over his family on accident.

[wiffleball 4,788]

This is textbook reason why an oftentimes legitimate movement is disregarded and derided by people who could actually affect legitimate change.

First sentence from that article -

 

 

I didn’t need to see the video to believe Michael Bennett.

They do not care. It really is amazing when presented with the truth they will flat out ignore it. Sad

[fandandy 3,313]

I wonder during the National Anthem today if Bennett knelt or stood up and ran from the color guard.

There is this. Who cares?
