RIP

its sad how little wrong a black man has to do to be considered some sort of thug/gangster, etc. dude was from a middle class family and his dad is a police chief. he had one run in with someone who he thought had stolen his property and so many people are quick to think he must have brought it upon himself when he's gunned down in his own house

You might be right, but let's not make this thread all about racism. Too soon imo.

i mean in general not necessarily on 2plus2, most repsonses here have been positive towards him, im talking more about how the media like to spin things

This makes me sick.

I have never really gotten upset about a 2+2 post before, but Dids you are so far out of line here its unbelievable. I think you should be permabanned for that comment.

Damn, when I heard he was shot I thought it was [censored] up, was a lot more affected than I thought I would be hearing his death.

RIP Sean Taylor

This post sums up my thoughts as well. I woke up this morning to a text message from my g/f that said Taylor passed away. So sad.

Redskins fans will always love him.

my exact thoughts.

ps-just because this is an internet forum doesnt mean u should go around acting like an insensitive douchebag every chance u get dids. i realize arguing with u is pointless because u refuse to put urself in, oh i dont know, his father's shoes and realize this isnt the time or the place for comments such as urs...but i guess only simpleminded folk have the ability to realize this.

I'm a pretty cynical person, but I thought he wouldn't make it. Quite frankly, I'm surprised he lasted this long with the wound that he had.

Am I the only one who understands what Dids was trying to say here? It may have not come the way he wanted it to or in the context he meant it, but I understood completely and the only thing I got out of it is "There is more to the media misperception of him as a bad guy than just the gun incident". [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] As I read it, the comment was why the some in the media felt the way they did.

Fair or unfair, but spitting incidents will always follow someone whether it be Robbie Alomar or Bill Romanowski and also look like a vile act, regardless of how great a person is otherwise.
RIP, very sad for the family.
