The complete lack of respect for a person's right to free speech and right to bear arms among our fans and nation, is downright troubling. I think we've been free for so many generations and don't have educational systems that develop true critical thinking about human history, have led to this.

Maybe not where your from. But in most places I lived years ago, most people respected law enforcement officers (certainly not all the folks one might be arresting.....but the general public did & and they had more support with community leaders and media).
Certainly not everyone, but most people did.

The law enforcement officer (job) also used to be a very respectable job.......it’s not that highly regarded anymore.

more than half the cops think they are above the law and let it get to their head it's hard to respect those.

Watch the entire hour long video...pay special attention to the ride to the detention facility. What was shown in the short TMZ video is mild by comparison. The police could not have been more accommodating.

The young man has issues that need to be straightened out for his own good. I don’t think dismissing him, this time, is the answer....but he needs to be on notice.

Maybe BT and JB can go to counseling together. Kind of a two for one discount sort of deal. Remember we're paying buyouts around here and saving up for more.

Dave Hooker should be dismissed as a writer and “Saturday Down South” should take a huge hit for the article it just released. It has to be one of the most subjectively written pieces I’ve ever seen. Literally said that Pruitt seems to have the same mindset as “Banks” regarding the cops. (Wow, if that isn’t defamation I don’t know what is)

Hooker is a blithering idiot. First he floats that BS “Fulmer angling to run Pruitt off and become the head coach again” .....and now this crap. That guy must be hurting bad for some clicks/relevancy. What a d!ck.

He was cooperative. He was calm. He didn't resist. So he said a couple of stupid things. He didnt shoot at anyone, and he didnt run.

Nothing to see here

And the threat to the female that she would “see him around campus”....whatcha got there chief?

He does not, nor will he be dismissed. If talking tough, while in handcuffs in a police cruiser, is considered a crime then many, many would be in prison today including many on this board. You know, when I get pulled over for speeding, and that happens a lot over the last 30 years, I have been known to say some things to the officer that I would not want my pastor to know.

I don’t think counseling is what this boy needs. But he needs something, harsh, that will give him the chance to change his attitude. I’m dubious that it will work, but he deserves a one second chance.

I’m just not convinced that Pruitt is the guy to do it. We’ll see.

It may be time to bring back the Fulmer Cup.

FREE SPEECH is great as long as it doesn't infringe on others' rights. "Your rights end where mine begin". Given the # of Cop Killings, Banks' remark indicates a total lack of respect for Law Enforcement and really humankind in General. Police put their lives on the line every day; and for what? This kind of crap? The Free Speech referred to in our Constitution does not cover this . No Way. Rational thinking People know this. We're running short on them.

If you ever wonder why car insurance costs are so high, look no further than states' refusal to hold suspended/revoked drivers accountable for their law breaking. Law abiding citizens have to pay extra for uninsured motorist coverage, and are sometimes SOL when there's an accident and the insurance company won't cover the loss because the suspended/revoked driver should never have been on the road in the first place... totally preventable situation if the laws had any teeth whatsoever. Insurance companies don't take losses; they pass off those expenses and costs to the consumer by way of higher rates and deductibles.

You watch even 1 episode of Live PD, and you see driver after driver after driver not having a license or having a suspended/revoked license, and they're always repeat-offenders... mind-boggling how that's allowed to continue with no significant consequences. And if there are injuries in a wreck, good luck getting the insurance company to cover those costs, too; those will come straight out of your pocket, because these negligent drivers never have anything to sue for... the law-abiding public gets screwed every way possible. I wish the police would be even more vigilant than they already are... anybody that characterizes what happened here as harassment has SFB.

My car insurance is really cheap (even with 2 cars both brand new) ..... you should probably find a better insurance company....

Also, your insurance covers all the stuff you are talking about even if you are hit by an uninsured motorist..... and the money that would come out of your pocket is the agreed upon deductible you have with your insurance company.....

Never Mind Your Pastor; He can't save you. And to the point, in my day, if you cursed the Police, you got a night stick. AND, guess what? That was the correct response. AUTHORITY means just that. Did you realize Interfering with an officer can be deemed a FELONY? People need to respect Law enforcement and YES; Fear them if you go against them.

No doubt. I mean, didn’t we all talk about shooting cops while being arrested and physically threaten females while telling them they’d see us around campus? Who among didn’t do such silly things when we were 19? We all did that, who wouldn’t at 19, right?

I really despise this day and age where everyone's business is on full display for everyone to ridicule and judge. I am just very thankful my early adult years wasn't plastered all over the internet everytime I did something stupid. I learned from my mistakes and grew to be a law abiding family man without the ridicule and judgement from the "holier than thou" crowd.

I’m not calling for anyone to be fired, or removed from the team for this offense. But it needs to be addressed with all concerned parties, and there needs to be zero tolerance moving forward.

It’s striking to me what many in society value, and who they blame, when incidents like this arise.

If this kid didn’t play a little football, most wouldn’t care in the least what happened to him.

Coming from a disinterested party, this post makes you look really stupid. A few of your others in this thread aren't much better.

Disinterested? And yet you responded to it. You guys are hilarious. As much as you're all clowns, I see why even Jack Napier AKA, Arthur Fleck, AKA Jerome Valeska think you're too pathetic to include on his staff. Disinterested and answering all the same??????? Hilarious, cerebrally lacking but still hilarious.

I agree with that but this wasn't a cell phone that recorded it this was police body cam. Plus while I don't know you outside of here I wouldn't think you would have told a cop that where you are from yall shoot cops.

I grew up in the mountains of southwestern VA so it wasn't unheard of if you count ABC agents as cops.

No I don't think I would have said that, but I did have some some run ins with LEO that I'm not proud of today. Thankfully none were broadcast to the world and I was given a chance to grow up and learn better.
