In November, Jacksonville Jaguars left tackle Khalif Barnes was arrested for drunk driving. But today, courtesy of Pro Football Talk, we learn that there's a video (watch it here) showing Barnes in the back of a police car, and he didn't have any nice things to say to the police officer who arrested him. In addition to telling the officer, "All you are is a white [redacted] KKK devil," the Times-Union quotes Barnes as saying:

"This is unbelievable, man, unbelievable being a pro athlete in Jacksonville. I can't wait to get out of here. Can't wait," Barnes said while handcuffed in the back of a Jacksonville Sheriff's Office patrol car. "Especially if you're black."

About 20 minutes later, still in the patrol car, he said, "Of all the places in the -- world that I came to this -- hick town. They -- hate us here.

"Why you even want to have a pro team here? What's the use? They don't even -- respect you."

The officer said Barnes' 2007 Mercedes passed him doing 101 mph. Police said a blood-alcohol test administered at the jail showed Barnes' level was .12 percent. The Jaguars suspended him for the next game.
