How in the world did he sneak a stun gun into the game? A game in which a former President of the United States was present?

Side note. Before the start of the Skins/Giants game, the announcer had said "Let's have a moment of silence..." and I still heard people talking/chanting through the moment of silence. Do people have no respect?

I saw that on TV, it was a bit ridiculous.

Is that your own custom made avatar?

It's an historical artifact of my own crafting, yes.

You know, I was at the game and I went back and watched the game at home, and it wasn't until I watched the game at home that I noticed the announcer requested a moment of silence, and personally, I don't think anybody in the stadium heard it because everyone kept talking. If I had heard it I damn well would've had my lips shut and would've been encouraging others to do the same, but I think this was just a case of people not hearing it for whatever reason. That sucks but oh well, I don't think it was intentional at all.

As for this Cowboys fan, seriously what a dumbass. The Marine is obviously partly wrong for not letting him out to use the bathroom, but I think the real question here is how did he get that in the stadium?

The girl I went with to the game brought her umbrella because rain was expected in the forecast, and they didn't let her in with it so she stashed it behind a port-a-potty. I can't believe umbrellas get denied but this guy can get in with a stun gun. Ridiculous.

And he deserves to be locked up. Nobody cares if he's a Jehovah's Witness, but it's still extremely disrespectful to be talking loudly during a highly emotional moment. If I was that Marine I'dve been pissed too, these guys put their lives on the line every day so they can come home and watch people intentionally disrespect them at a football game? He was probably just using that Jehovah's Witness thing as an excuse to be an asshole.

Either way, it's obviously not good news for the league that they had extra tight security at game because of 9/11 and some idiot still managed to get through with a taser.

The one that bakes my beans is when the morons shout "OHHHHHHHH" during the one line in the Anthem. Baltimore baseball fans are particularly bad with this but I hear it everywhere.

Stand up, take off your hat, hand on the heart and shut your mouth until it's over. If the singer flubs it...boo them afterward (you deserve it if you don't know the words), but respect the song.

Too many adults behave like children in today's society.

Seriously. It happens at like every game I go to and it's just annoying. I mean what purpose does it serve? Just stand there and be silent, or sing the words along quietly, but be respectful.

On a side note even though Ne-Yo was taking a lot of shit for doing the National Anthem, I really enjoyed it. He didn't try to put his own personal touch on it, he sung it the way it was meant to be sung, and it sounded way better than when Jordan Sparks did it at the GB-NO game.

Although I understand the respect and acting mature bit, but if someone else is being loud or not standing up it should not automatically lead to confrontation.

Just as one should be grown-up and take a moment of silence their counterpart should also be mature enough to ask them kindly to adhere if they are not compliant. Complain to stadium officials if the individual continues to be loud. This one can go both ways. The Marine is not 100 percent in the right on this one, IMO.

DISCLAIMER: I am in no way justifying the user of any weapon at stadium or in general.

Pops was wrong for being disrespectful of the moment of silence and the playing of taps. [You don't want to stand for the anthem fine, sit quietly and read a book or check your e-mail but don't disrupt others as they share a moment of socially sanctioned community - the majority has rights too. Further, you want to be respected for your choice to not participate, then respect the choice of others that wish to participate - there is room for both.]

The Marine was wrong by venting his anger at Pop's disruptive words/actions through an act of physical confrontation.

Pop's stepped way over the line of wrong by pulling out the Taser.

Just a case of two wrongs don't make a right with the added "I'm a hypocritcal idiot" factor thrown in.

How can that be? Was he no a Jehovah's Witness?
