News: DE Sam Williams arrested Sunday on controlled substance, weapons charges

[FuzzyLumpkins]

Isn’t that the stuff Griner got a year for in Russia? That was a mess.

Exactly. Already antiquated drug laws are now even further behind.

It's a beautiful pie in the sky dream to make guns disappear from bad people. Naive, but beautiful.

Just like it is to think people fit so easily into the boxes of "good" and "bad."

 

[Rockport]

Exactly!!!

You have surgeons, lawyers, and all kinds of other professionals who do coke on a regular basis, but I've never heard anyone saying they have character issues. I know this first hand because , back in my day, I used to sell to them at parties or at their homes. I didn't have to stand on a corner and made serious bread.

Again.... they don't say those professionals have character issues, they only apply that to athletes.

Make that make sense.....

Lots of folks don’t do as they say.

Just like it is to think people fit so easily into the boxes of "good" and "bad."

People who shoot innocent people are "bad." It's not hard.

I travel down to work that region including Huntsville. Was down last November, nice area.

Yeah, Hoover and Huntsville are both pretty nice.

Sadly I'm down in Montgomery and even though I'm in the "nice" party of the city most of this place is absolutely run down, crime ridden and generally awful.

I may end up moving out to Auburn next year. It's my alma mater and the city is really coming along since I went to school there.

I still miss my home town in Carrolton though. Nothing beats big D for me.

Gotta love TX...the gun was the misdemeanor

Without the drugs, it would not have been an offense.

That's our owner.

I would think a permit to carry and having the weapon registered are basic law compliance.

There is no gun registration in Texas, and a permit is not required.

 

[CooterBrown]

I just looked it up, and I don't know what he could've done because laws are very relaxed in Texas. No permit necessary, basically just a holster, but in his car? I have no clue what he could've done to get charged.

Possess both drugs and a gun at the same time and place.

 

[CooterBrown]

Weed is a felony but unlawfully carrying a gun is a misdemeanor.

What is wrong with Texas?

Weed is not always a felony.

 

[America's Cowboy]

i sure hope so. These gun toting morons need to be taught a lesson.

Ridiculous.

Sam Williams was carrying an illegal firearm with him. No need to punish legal gun owners for the sins of the illegal firearm owners.

One day you will wish you had a legally registered firearm with you. Mark my words.

Because there aren't any professional surgeon leagues. Or pro lawyer tournaments. Athletes carry the hopes and dreams of millions in the fanbase rooting for a particular team to win a championship. When one of them is arrested and suspended ,it helps to derail that teams chances. It sucks but it happens.

 

[CooterBrown]

Carrying Marijuana=Felony
Unlawful carrying of a weapon=Misdemeanor

The report said, “controlled substance”. That is not marijuana.

Lol. Jerry is an evil dude. Why are you surprised?

 

[rambo2]

That's our owner.

Lol

So then it is all revisionist after the fact. Not a good way to make decisions in real time.

It actually reads like an SNL skit

 

[CooterBrown]

You still have to register the gun though.

No you don’t.

 

[FuzzyLumpkins]

The arrest is bad and I would be interested to know what he as doing to get pulled over but I could care less about the THC oil or the gun.
