The St. Louis Rams player who initiated the "Hands Up, Don't Shoot" protest at the game against the Oakland Raiders Sunday has a long rap sheet, but, despite multiple arrests, the Rams' Kenny Britt has thus far managed not to get shot by the "racist" police he and his teammates protested.

Before taking the field Sunday, Britt encouraged his teammates Stedman Bailey, Tavon Austin, Jared Cook, and Chris Givens to join him in raising their hands up in solidarity for Michael Brown, a gesture discredited by mounds of evidence released by the prosecutor earlier that week. Though Britt later said they weren't taking sides, the implications of the action were obvious: the police were guilty of killing an innocent black teen, a provocative statement to say the least after a week filled with violent protests in the St Louis area.

Britt choosing to protest is particularly curious given his past experience with law enforcement, none of which involved him being shot by "racist" officers. Here's a summary of Britt's recent trouble (h/t D.C. Clothesline):

April 2011 - Arrested on three charges after leading police in car chase:
