Kenny Britt, one of the five St. Louis Rams to come out in the hands up, don’t shoot pose yesterday in the game between the St. Louis Rams and Oakland Raiders is no stranger to criminals. In fact, Kenny Britt has quite a long arrest recording according to JWF.
In case you missed it Sunday, five idiots who play for the St. Louis Rams showed their solidarity with Mike Brown by mimicking protesters before their game with the Oakland Raiders. One of them, wide receiver Kenny Britt, is all to familiar with putting his hands up after numerous run-ins with the law during his days with the Tennessee Titans.
So Kenny Britt knows all about hands up, dont’ shoot. But he makes millions of dollars playing in the NFL for the St. Louis Rams, so he gets special treatment.

Funny how all the media reports about Kenny Britt and the St. Louis Rams suddenly becoming ‘acitvists’ with their hands up don’t shoot charade don’t mention Britt’s criminal past.
BTW, I wonder how much, if anything that Kenny Britt has donated to the rebuilding efforts in Ferguson? If I had to guess, absolutely nothing.
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Kenny Britt was arrested on three charges Tuesday afternoon after a car chase in his hometown of Bayonne, N.J., FOXSports.com has learned.
A Bayonne police spokesman told FOXSports.com that Britt was charged with eluding a police officer, lying to an officer/hindering apprehension and obstructing governmental function. Eluding an officer is a third-degree felony; the other two charges are misdemeanors.
A passenger in the vehicle with Britt also faces three criminal charges. Jerel Lord, 23, of Bayonne was charged with marijuana possession, resisting arrest and obstructing governmental function.
Britt is the 10th player arrested since the NFL locked out its players March 11. The Titans’ inability to run an offseason workout program may explain why Britt was back in his hometown.
According to a police report, the incident occurred at 4:30 P.M. Tuesday when Britt was clocked driving his blue Porsche at 71 mph in a 50-mph zone. When an officer attempted to enter the roadway to stop the vehicle, the Porsche accelerated and began weaving in and out of highway traffic. The Porsche then exited the highway and was spotted on a local street with Britt and Lord walking away from the vehicle.
The officer ordered them to stop and began questioning Britt and Lord, both of whom denied being in the vehicle. At one point during the interview, Lord ran away on foot, but he was apprehended a block away by a pursuing officer.
