skersfan Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 You do not plan a mistake. Knowing right from wrong normally occurs at a much younger age. Quote Link to comment
Warrior10 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 i agree. everyone says, "we all did stupid things." yes, but how many of us have been charged with a felony? i am not sure what his consequences should be, but people should stop minimizing this. I agree that it shouldn't be minimized like some are doing...however it shouldn't be maximized like some are doing also. Quote Link to comment
True2tRA Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 You do not plan a mistake. Knowing right from wrong normally occurs at a much younger age. You most certainly can. I plan on having a few beers after I eat this BBQ Beef pizza. I'm 32, still making mistakes. Quote Link to comment

True2tRA Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Not thinking he should lose everything he's worked his whole life for isn't the same thing as minimizing the crime. 1 Quote Link to comment
Bowfin Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 I don't see how this crime doesn't fit the very definition of mistake. If you REALLY believed that, you would have said, "I don't see how this MISTAKE doesn't fit the very definition of mistake." You Freudian slipped there, bro. If a crime is really a mistake and a mistake really a crime, they wouldn't be spelled differently. Anyhow, I am more worried about Banderas becoming a better person than playing football. He has 60-80 years more eligibility left as a citizen, I hope he makes the most of it. Quote Link to comment

I agree we don't need a $1000 punishment for $5 crime but if his hard work has any value to him whatsoever, he sure didn't treat it with that kinda respect. Quote Link to comment

What would your punishment for him be? Quote Link to comment
Stumpy1 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Would it be a mistake if I stole your car? Mistakes lose merit when it comes to crimes IMHO Quote Link to comment

skersfan Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 He did not make a mistake. He chose to do it. He did not stumble on a bike that was unlocked and rode it off. He went there planning to steal the bikes, brought equipment to obtain said bike/bikes and had a vehicle in place to carry the merchandise away. That is not a mistake under any meaning of the word. It is stealing. If he did not know right from wrong, then and only then could it be deemed a mistake. Sometime in our lives we have to take responsibility for our actions. My guess is Bo will make that happen. 2 Quote Link to comment

I agree that it shouldn't be minimized like some are doing...however it shouldn't be maximized like some are doing also. yeah. i mean, we should all know that this is pretty serious. i really do not think it is worthy of getting him kicked off the team. but it is worthy of him having to face the legal consequences as anyone else would and have a tight leash on the team. some consequences from bo, but he does deserve a second chance.
