He should be suspended at least one game.
Should also be charged with a crime for falsely claiming abuse.
It won’t matter. Same as “hands up don’t shoot.” Truth is not the objective, the meme and how it can be hammered politically is.
First the NFL needs to retract their stupid statement.
Detained for ten minutes.
Not threatened.
No gun held to his head.
This guy is desperate to inflame the Black community, and as many others as he can, in this fraud.
That itself should be actionable IMO.
Give the guy six months for the lying to wear off.
Exactly right.
That hands up thing, and the fraud that the police shot him for nothing at all...
He had already beaten a police officer, and tried to take his gun away, and was coming back for more.
That officer saved live IMO.
Add Trayvon Martin to the list.
That was all a trumped up lie too.
Michael Bennett is a racist.
It’s ammo-packed posts like this that make FR such a great site despite its excess of barf articles that merely attract venting.
Police just can’t win when a minority has a racial axe to grind.
Don’t worry police officers. Good Americans will always have your back and we appreciate what you heroes do for us all.
He can sit for the Anthem....to protest...
I would rather wait until all sides tell their story. But that’s not how the left (and sometimes the right) play the game. A whole lot of conservatives got embarrassed when some of the solid details of the driver running over people in Charlottesville were released.
Wow. Truth coming out. Amazing.
I want to see more of this!
Not to hijack this thread, but speaking of that, there was a thread on here today saying she actually died of a heart attack. I only read the title, not the detail on that one.
Bennett was hiding because he’s a coward. He thought shots had been fired and he hid rather than chance getting shot leaving the casino.
Pussy
I’ve suspended him and the entire NFL for another season.
They don’t hire people like us to work Public Relations for companies and similar entities. Instead they hire a bunch of left-wing, America-hating, straight-hating, white-hating, jerks...and then wonder why their businesses is getting killed.
In this case, I have some advice for the NFL:
1) There is NO LAW that requires an instant reaction and statement when an allegation is made. It is ok to try to listen to both sides first and there is now often conclusive electronic evidence.
2) In fact, there is NOTHING WRONG with simply staying clear of political issues. If a reporter asks you about this case of ‘police brutality’ and ‘targeting by race’, simply respond that you don’t have enough information to take a position.
3) People often lie, even those claiming to victims.
4) The police are not always the bad guys - in fact, roughly 90% of the time, they wind up being the good guys...so at least here them out first.
5) Remember that your fan base is 98% white (by revenue) and 2/3’s of those whites DO NOT enjoy being a punching bag for the left, and yes, when you attack the police, you are attacking white society, in other words - you are attacking YOUR OWN FAN BASE.
6) The media is NO LONGER interested in the truth - at least not initially. All they want is juicy headlines, particularly if it’s targeted at white society.
Boy do you have a point there. Agreed.

He is a BLM believer who just knows that all cops are racists and he is a victim.
My local representative here in Missouri is in trouble because he said on FaceBook that someone who defaced a monument in a cemetery should be hung from a tall tree with a long rope. This statement is an intimation of someone receiving justice, not a lynching. The media ‘lynches’ whomever they please every day of the year and hide behind the 1st Amendment and the 4th column. Good on the police for firing back (uhoh, a trigger phrase)on the NFL in this case.
