Yeah, I wasn't taking up for the guy nor was I saying the police were right. Just giving my $.02.LJ wrote: That's called a false arrest
Anticipatory arrest???? I hope that was not the case. If police started doing that, they might as well just pull over any sports car going down the road in case the driver decides to speed. IF what the video is portraying is correct, then that is a major abuse of power and the police should be punished accordingly.jordo212000 wrote: yeah the video does cut out, I'd like to see more of what happened.

Cheering at a football game is not disorderly conduct?jordo212000 wrote: And as to the "false arrest" cops have alot leeway with the law. They could have simply charged the guy with disorderly conduct or
somebody didn't read on... haha. Just saying why I thought a guy who got arrested, who from all appearances seemed to be doing nothing wrong except yelling at other fans, might get arrested.elbuckeye28 wrote: Anticipatory arrest????

Its cool. Its okay. You've watched 3 minutes and 40 seconds of one event and you know exactly what happened before the recording happened and what happened before it mysteriously stops and then continues recording.LJ wrote: Cheering at a football game is not disorderly conduct?

I got a quick definition of disorderly conduct for you via wikipedia:
"A person who recklessly, knowingly, or intentionally:
1) engages in fighting or in tumultuous conduct;
2) makes unreasonable noise and continues to do so after being asked to stop
3) disrupts a lawful assembly of persons; "
Seems like it would be pretty easy for the cops to peg disorderly conduct on this guy. Not saying it was right or that he should have been arrested (he shouldn't have...)
its like arguing with a brick wall with you... Once again... because you don't seem to be comprehending this, I do not feel like the guy did anything wrong haha. (that was until he started acting stupid and resisting arrest)LJ wrote: And all the Charger fans around him were saying he didn't do anything and were even getting tossed for standing up for him. I think I will take their opinion over someone who wasn't even there.
And if what he did was Disorderly Conduct, we might as well all stay away from opposing teams stadiums.
what else would it have been?justincredible wrote: Disorderly conduct? I don't think so.
I'm the brick wall? I have understood what you have been saying, but I have been saying that it's not that easy. Sure they can "charge" him with anything they want. Doesn't mean it's gonna stick, doesn't mean that an investigation won't find that they were false charges, and it doesn't mean that those charges are correct.jordo212000 wrote:its like arguing with a brick wall with you...

The point was that charges can easily be pegged on you by the police. Disorderly conduct is one of those catch all charges that are very easy to put on somebody
I'm not saying that isn't what they nabbed him on. I'm saying that it's a bullshit reason if that is the case.jordo212000 wrote:what else would it have been?justincredible wrote: Disorderly conduct? I don't think so.
An arrest based on false premise based on the NFL's ridiculous fan conduct policy.jordo212000 wrote:what else would it have been?justincredible wrote: Disorderly conduct? I don't think so.
Yeah I don't think whatever they arrested him on will stick either (unless there is more to this guy's story that isn't recorded)LJ wrote:

or bad editing. Some other loudmouth (even one on the other side) saying the guy did nothing is less convincing than the Watergate-esque gap in the clip IMO.LJ wrote:That's called a false arrestjordo212000 wrote: yeah the video does cut out, I'd like to see more of what happened.

Why are people ignoring the fact that the Charger fans around him where saying that he didn't do anything and were even getting tossed themselves for standing up for him? Yeah, seems like bad editing to mequeencitybuckeye wrote:or bad editing.LJ wrote:That's called a false arrestjordo212000 wrote: yeah the video does cut out, I'd like to see more of what happened.
