Haven't read the thread because I'm on the way to work, but here's his arrest record again...

And apparently this is a previous encounter with police. I had not heard about this until last night. Wonder why the media didn't cover it??????

Sterling put officers in the exact same situation in 2009 and he was sent to prison for a number of years following that incident. The media rarely mentions it and it's pathetic. In that incident, someone reported that he pulled a gun on them, the officer arrived and questioned if he had a gun, he refused to answer the cop, the cop tried to pat him down and he started fighting him. While they were wrestling on the ground a gun fell out of Sterling's waistband. Another officer arrived to help and he kept fighting both of them, but the other officer got his gun and they eventually arrested him. This guy was no gentle giant and he was fortunate to live as long as he did if you look at his violent and scary criminal history. He pressed his luck one too many times.
