JUST ANOTHER TYPICAL IGNORANT BLACK ATHLETE. WHY IS IT THAT ATHLETES CAN BE SO STUPID AND LACK COMMON SENSE BUT YET JUST BECAUSE THEY RUN WITH A BALL THEY GET PAID MILLIONS. THE TRUTH IS MOST BLACK ATHLETES ARENT UNEDUCATED THEY JUST LACK COMMONSENSE. I DONT SEE A PLETHORA OF WHITE ATHLETES GETTING BUSTED FOR CARRYING GUNS AND DRUGS IN THEIR SYSTEM. IM TIRED OF GROWN ASS MEN WHO ARE IN POSITIONS TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE TO CONTINUE TO PLAY TO THIS “STAYING TRUE TO THE HOOD” MINDFRAME. IT JUST LEADS TO MORE STEROTYPES. BLACK PEOPLE CONTROL THEIR OWN STEROTYPES AND CAN CONTROL THE WAY PEOPLE VIEW THEM BUT CONTINUE TO HAVE THIS “TRUE TO THE HOOD” NATURE THAT LEADS TO THEIR DEMISE

Stallworth got off waaaay toooo easy. An average citizen would’ve ben put under the jail, and the key would’ve been thrown away.

That is why professional athletes think they are bullet proof.

@ROME223, Very well said.

I feel what ROME223 is saying, but you also have to understand that they are human. When people go to work, I am pretty sure they do not think about others but themselves and their paychecks,their bills, and whatever but they are not thinking about others. Athletes are the same way, they deserve every bit of the money they get because they are there to play the sport. It just goes back to good parenting and how the black communities need to stick together and make our communities better in raising better black men and women, and stop glorifying drugs and violence. Well really this is not really a race or social class matter, its a much bigger problem in a cycle that everybody needs to stop. But then again you gotta think about it, s**t like this has to happen, we are our own predators. Humans need to be balanced out some way, we all can’t live for 100+ years, we been done used up all our resources and blahblahblah, but yea its unfortunate that somebody had to die.

A friend of mine was in a car accident a yr ago that resulted in his passenger losing her life, he had weed in his system as well and is now serving a 4yr prison sentence! Cant believe he is getting 30days!

HE PAID FOR THAT 30 DAY SENTENCE…KILLING A MAN WITH HIS CAR AND HE WAS TWISTED….HE PAID THE FAMILY SOME MONEY TOO…THAT COULD BE THE REASON…

He gave them an undisclosed amount of money. But as long as you can afford the best lawyers you can get off. I mean look at what happened to T.I. The only athlete that didn’t get off easy was Michael Vick.

Donte getting off easy? wow t.i got off the hook mad bread and his skin tone smh color is still a issue

hayzie? who brought up color?? lol t.i didnt kill anyone and still serving a yr..this man is serving 30 days for taking someones life color has nothing to do with it!

lol weed in he’s system, weed didn’t make him kill that person.

THATS NUTTIN, WEED STAYS IN YOU SYSTEM 90 DAYS, SO HE MIGHT HAVE SMOKED 2 MO AGO!

30 days for killing someone. That’s ridiculous.

Actually weed only stays in your system up to 30 days. And sometimes less depending on the potency of the weed and frequency of use. But valid point, he might not have been high when it happened. I read in one of my textbooks in nursing school that there is not even ONE single vehicular accident caused DIRECTLY by the use of marijuana ever doc**ented in the U.S..

shut yall trick asz up,the man make mistakes like any other person,yall some ol bougie as folk,when u from the hood you dont change your mentality,you can be rich one day then broke cause of some ol bullshyt, Quit idolizing folk then you can understand that,30 day is hell when you got alot of monie you cant spend,THINK ABOUT IT BROKE ASS’

Actually weed can stay in ur system up to 90 days depending on how much u smoke, i know from expierience, then thc is also fat soluable, so anytime a heavy person like myself, tries to work out or lose that fat, the thc gets rereleased into the system, that 30 day thing is for real occasional smokers

MAN WEED AINT GOT S**T TO DO WITH IT!!

ITS SAD SOMEONE LOST THEIR LIFE. NO ONE CAN CHANGE THAT. STALLWORTH DID WHAT HE HAD TO BY PREADING GUILTY. THE WEED STATEMENTS BY THE PRESS ARE ONLY MEANT TO KILL HIS CARREE. THERE ARE ALOT OF PEOPLE WHO HATE TO SEE BLACK MEN MAKE THAT KIND OF MONEY AND THEY LOOK FOR EVERYTHING, ANYTHING TO BRING THEM DOWN!!!

Just say “NO!”, Stallworth!! Just say “NO!”. ;-)

so this man aint supposed to pay for taking a life i like stallworth and all but if it were a family member of mine im gonna be out for blood damn the pay off money

You people turn my f**king stomach just by sharing my complexion….you’re all disgraces…seriously…

The fact that you dumb f**ks defend smoking weed this much is pathetic….now had Stallworth been a white guy and killed someone black and he had weed in his system you stupid, uneducated, DUMB ASSES would be all over that weed s**t talking about trying to get it off the streets….

I see now why the words “niggas” and “b***hes” will never die within my community…

F**king idiots…

You know something, in my heart, I’m HOPING some weed head kills one of YOUR kids one day….lets see how much you defend that s**t then…

lmao calm down, someone is taking it to the heart (the statement under mine) everyone has to pay for their actions..end of story

IWalkAlone… Bro… Perhaps Stallworth was unfit to drive at the time of the accident. If that was the case, fault for the accident lies not with his weed usage, but with his decision to drive while unfit. Besides… Fatal accidents frequently occur even in the absence of intoxication.

Weed is less dangerous than any number of prescription drugs (including everybody’s favorite: Tylenol). Do the research.

The problem wasn’t weed. The problem was Mr. Stallworth’s reckless decision to drive. End of story.
