Weapons that he did not have a license to own.

What do you do when you see a cop on the highway with a radar gun?  You check your speed.  Gilbert Arenas should have checked himself as soon as the gun incident became news but he didn’t. Rotoworld wrote the following about Gilbert Arenas’ Twitter account where he was writing odd stuff for someone who had met with authorities and should be trying to keep a low profile.

Gilbert Arenas, who is at the center of a police and NBA investigation regarding the allegation that him and Javaris Crittenton pulled guns on each another, has been tweeting about everything from Peter Vescey’s article about him, addressing rumors about Shaquille O’Neal and his fiance’, to making jokes of questionable taste.

We’ll let you be the judge of what types of lines he may or may not have crossed, but we’re pretty sure David Stern wants this problem to get smaller, not bigger. By drawing attention to himself at this time, he is increasing his chances of a suspension significantly, much to his owners’ chagrin. Additionally, he really needs to hire someone to edit his work

So what did Gilbert Arenas do last night?  In the pre-game warmups Arenas, with the team surrounding him, pointed two fingers as if they were guns and everyone fell back according to the Marc Stein in the video below.  Say what you will about freedom of speech but the NBA is about image and that is not the haphazard, thoughtless image that Stern wants to portray.

“Although it is clear that the actions of Mr. Arenas will ultimately result in a substantial suspension, and perhaps worse, his ongoing conduct has led me to conclude that he is not currently fit to take the court in an NBA game. Accordingly, I am suspending Mr. Arenas indefinitely, without pay, effective immediately pending the completion of the investigation by the NBA.”  – NBA commissioner David Stern

Good job Arenas, you are Dumbelievable.

When trying to get out of jury duty, don’t include the following words as this idiot did.  Full link above.

  • You Moron
  • this crap
  • our “justice” system
  • goddamn
  • rather count wrinkles on my dog’s balls
  • thick skulls

The last line is “Leave me the fuck alone.”   That’s probably not going to happen.   This is dumb on a whole new level.

He stopped. His wife ignored the officers demands and went inside the hospital.

Once the woman disobeyed the officer and went inside the hospital, he should have an idea that this is not a lie. People are constantly given warnings. This is about control, which the officer didn’t have, and was trying to gain it back.

If the officer felt there was something important going on he would have stopped the women. But that may have instigated him further feeling the loss of power. Even with the nurse comes out and tells them that it is true.

Have you ever made a mistake and then, trying to fix it or get out of it, you make it worse? This is one of those situations.

I remember a few years ago hearing about an older man driving fast to get his wife to the hospital. She died in the car while the officer did exactly what this cop did above. Like I said, they consistently and systematically lied to, but in these situations officers can easily double check or follow up with the individual later.

Watching it again I don’t see that the cop thought anything else was going on. He was asking about insurance, not checking the car for weapons and drugs. I don’t think the cop will be fired. He didn’t break the law. He was stupid and rude. He gave a laundry list of the things he could charge Moats with. That is intimidation and weakness.
