I don't know what that big word means but I'm going to assume it's you being real real mad.

But they are back home around those thugs who they grew up with and who were a big part of their lives.

Again, these kids should just be cut off from going home. At least in our case it seems like almost 2/3 of the problems happen when kids go back to their original surroundings. Get them the fvck out of there. They should be smart enough to know that by now.

Um, yes they do. Maybe if you're trying to sell it on armslist or something. But if you're buying a gun off the corner it's not going to have a serial number.

Stolen guns pass from hand to hand in order to commit crimes with, and then dump it, or sell it again to someone else who needs it just for a stick up or a quick drive by. These are facts that I know of first hand. You don't hold on to a stolen gun long. It has one purpose and the goal is for it to not be traced back to anyone.

I'm pretty much right in line with what you just said. Don't know why you quoted and responded to me.




I thought you were saying Cam shouldn't be punished.

My bad.

I'm being as rational as I can here. I feel terrible for young kids that frick up their lives like this and I'm all about second chances, but if this was an LSU player and they were indeed guilty of illegally possessing a stolen firearm, I'd want their second chance to be at another school.

That's a very serious crime.

I agree, as much as I hate to lose him. If he gets charged with a felony there is no way to keep him on the team.


Even if he's innocent?

I'll say the same thing here I say in every thread where a player is arrested for crimes where the facts aren't clear.

If Cam Robinson had a gun he knew or should have suspected was stolen then Bye Felicia but everyone, including college football players, deserve the presumption of innocence. Wait until you know the facts before you take a permanent action.

They should be suspended for a season at least. Smoking bags of weed with a stolen gun who the hell are these people?

I was responding to a clown that wanted them punished because he was positive they were about to do something violent. He was making the case for punishment based on what the authorities think you are gonna do.

They are not innocent.

Take the Bama shirt off for a minute.

Bottom line, if the gun didn't have a serial number it would be a different charge, and a much more serious one.

They don't know its a stolen gun if it doesn't have a serial number.

The gun had a serial number.

Not really. Rolando McClain had a similar problem, so have others. They go back to the old environment and do stupid things.

Obviously I didn't mean don't allow them to go back, but you would hope at some point they'd mature and learn that there are certain places where temptations are and avoid those places.

Home isn't the problem. They had those guns in Alabama. They smoked weed in cars in Alabama. There wasn't even anyone else from home in the cars; just 2 Bama players. This has nothing to do with visiting home.

I agree with George in some cases. It's obvious some kids, like Rolando McClain, Duke Williams (not that it would matter) and Nick Fairley, shouldn't go home because they can't escape the bad influences.

I see no way you can keep them on the team. Even if they plead it down.

It was a stupid and dangerous action and there must be consequences. Honestly, with a gun in his lap, I think it is pretty lucky no one got shot.

But this is not an indictment on the Alabama program. I think most SEC schools would have wanted these guys, and I seriously doubt they acquired this behavior in Tuscaloosa.
