SCOTTSDALE, Ariz.

How unfair and racist./s

[MIchaelTArchangel]

Are the crowds forming to demand justice for Maxwell based upon the fact that there are not nine white guys arrested for pointing a gun at someone?

[moovova]

“He was projected to be Oakland’s starting catcher next year.”

Now, hopefully, this traitor will be starting catcher in prison.

Looks like he’s going to be someone’s else’s Cather next year

[Buckeye Battle Cry]

Just another punk-ass moron with a chip on his shoulder that is totally undeserved.

Catcher

[MichaelCorleone]

The headline says he actually pointed a gun. The article says this is only an allegation at this time.

Innocent until proven guilty.

Have no sympathy for this kneeler, but people DO lie for any number of reasons.

Let’s see if there’s any corroborating evidence.

Karma

Hey. She probably disrespected him or forgot the extra cheese, - or something.

Just tryin to live up to the Otown cred. YO

“The 26-year-old Maxwell hit .237 with three home runs and 22 RBIs in 76 games this season. He was projected to be Oakland’s starting catcher next year.”.......

Adding such information to the story means NOTHING (IMO) to the importance of the issue. He’s a thug looking for publicity but happens to be a baseball player. He will most likely be given a “walk” without further punishment. He should be sent to jail for a while to remember he is no more important than anyone else, break the law and pay the penalty. PERIOD!

Maxwell was the only player in Major League Baseball this year to take a knee during the national anthem to protest racial injustice.

I initially read that to say “to promote racial injustice”.

If he had shot at her he was most likely to miss being a 237 hitter.

I hope there is more evidence than a delivery driver said...
Also noted that Mueller could arrest someone Monday, for what? A process crime? Wouldn't a warrant to appear be sufficient? I guess not for an out of control "special" prosecutor who attacks people in the home at dawn.

[GuavaCheesePuff]

Doesn’t he have the right to own a gun?

[B.O. Plenty]

Now he can go back to robbing liquor stores...?

[LydiaLong]

Black lives with guns matter.

[Paladin2]

Maybe if he were hitting .357 he’d be given a pass.
