Police arrested Dallas Cowboys rookie fullback Asaph Schwapp

He should have known better then to take it on the plane but to arrest him for it is just stupid.

Surikens are pretty much nothing but for show. I know of no traditional Japanese schools except Ninja who train with them. No one is going to be throwing stars in the dojo. I do know people who have a myriad of martial arts weapons for decorations.

Why can't police exhibit some flexibility if they aren't serving a warrant for arrest? It's a waste of the taxpayer's money IMO in the vast majority of these cases. Are their hands really tied?

A police report states Schwapp told officers he collects martial arts weapons and that a friend had given it to him.

Buehler...

I think its a conspiracy against the cowboys. That baggage screener is probably an eagles fan.

Police arrested Dallas Cowboys rookie fullback Asaph Schwapp at Love Field Friday.

He proved all of his naysayers wrong: He could get himself arrested!

 

[Paniolo22]

So was he Shwapping spit at Luuuve field?

 

[Apollo Creed]

Wait, ninja stars? For real?

This isn't a joke thread?

He should have used the "Don't you know who I am?" line.

DALLAS (CBS 11 News) ― Police arrested a Dallas Cowboys rookie at Love Field Friday for carrying a prohibited weapon.

Twenty two-year-old Asaph Schwapp was boarding a flight to Houston when security found a throwing-star in his bag, police say. A throwing star is a popular martial arts weapon.

A police report states Schwapp told officers he collects martial arts weapons and that a friend had given it to him. The report also states he was "extremely cooperative."

Schwapp is a fullback and attended Notre Dame. He was an undrafted free agent picked up by the Cowboys this year.

Schwapp was running third team fullback at off-season workouts this week with little chance of making the team.

The Cowboys have not released an official statement about the arrest.

Barry Switzer said Asaph placed it in the bag where the kids couldn't find it. He's just glad it was away from those kids.

I always bought the story that he packed it to get it away from the kids. I thought everyone knew you couldn't do that and would get caught.

His family has money so he'll be ok.
