"police are willing to wait as long as it takes to talk him out"

Yeah, because he's a celebrity. If this was just your average black man accused of domestic abuse, they'd have busted the door down and gone in guns blazing by now. Probably would've managed to "accidentally" shoot some of his neighbors along the way.

No my friend, you don't wait it out. You call the SWAT team in. Unless of course you're dealing with a celebrity, then you wait it out as we see now.

Lol that’s not how this works, friend. Try not to make such rash, anger-inducing assumptions about breaking news stories. You don’t know what’s going on, don’t be like this.

Yes, progress is needed in law-enforcement’s equal treatment, but that’s not the case here. Progress can only be made if chances to do the right thing are given.

All cops are bastards, plain and simple. It's obvious to anyone with a couple brain cells to rub together that Antonio Brown is getting highly preferential treatment, and that if he wasn't such a well known celebrity that the situation would be resolved much more quickly and brutally.

Antonio Brown and Kanye West name a more iconic duo of schizos.

No... you don't. Why would you put a swat team in danger to kill someone, when the only negative outcome if you don't is that they kill themselves? You're just wrong

It's a battery case and violation of court oders... not murder. They're not going in with SWAT for that. The guys a fucking whack but not an imminent threat to anyone. Wait him out. He may get a moment of clarity

You call SWAT if you are worried about evidence being destroyed before you enter, like in the case of drugs. When you are arresting someone and they are only a danger to themselves you try to talk them down.

Head trauma starts piling on well before players make it to the NFL. AB has been crazy, it’s why he went to a smaller school when he could’ve played for FSU. The Steelers were just able to keep him in check.

Would be cool if the police just blasted him. I’m tired of hearing about him all the time.

Does anyone know if it’s possibly CTE and brain damage from some of the terrible head injuries he’s had in the past?

Replying to MissAlice1234 (#844,577)

Everyone says that so much that it’s become a thing, but that’s not really how CTE works. I’d say the real reason for it is 1) major ego & 2) he definitely has some sort of bipolar type mental illness going on that’s been left undiagnosed and dismissed for many years because of his football status but now it’s gotten to a point where it’s become a serious problem.

Because Ye was saying the quiet parts loud.

Edit: people seem to assume I agree with this fruitcake. I don’t. But I do believe Ye is voicing the internalized opinions of every other GQP fruitcake out there. They’re not shocked at what he’s saying, they’re shocked he has the audacity to say what they’re thinking.

Cops not breaking down his door is the smart decision. It is a misdemeanor not a felony.

I mean, all of Chris Benoit’s friends and colleagues were singing his praises about the kind of loving family man he was until they learned he had murdered his family before killing himself.
Going from Diva to Psychopath doesn’t feel entirely out of the question for repeated brain damage.

For anyone who might be thinking about the phrase "Kanye after Kim" please remember "George Bush doesn't care about black people" was before a single Kardashian was known or famous. Some say Mike Meyers never stopped cringing, to this day.

Let’s also not forget when he stormed the stage to interrupt Taylor Swift while she was receiving an award and say Beyoncé had the best album of all time. People really need to stop blaming Kim.
