Gun Control in the NFL???

Anybody watching the Sunday night NFL game. I can not believe what I just heard. After eulogizing the death of the Chiefs player who killed his wife and then himself, Bob Costas went on to say how he and NBC agreed with what a news columnist wrote. Basically he attributed the players death to the gun culture in the US and that he would not have committed those acts if he had not possessed a handgun. His view if that if no one had hand guns these things would not happen.
I guess if he had used a baseball bat or kitchen knife we would ban those??? :banghead

Bob Costas should move to a safe, "gun free" zone like the south side of Chicago.

I just turned it on to watch and heard that. Blamed the gun, not the man. Rediculous. NBC cannot count me among their viewers any longer. I know you can't cure stupid but at least I don't have to put up with it on MY tv. I'm sure that Mr. Costas believes that the reason is the weapon. But Mr. Costas, if someone wants you dead they will find a way to do it. Please be realistic and put the blame where it belongs. The sick individual that held the gun.

Costa is a bigger idiot than Howard Cosell. Neither one could tell you what 22 dive means much less draw up the play.

But the world is full of the "I'm sombody" turds.

Ain't that the truth.

Unbelievably sad he would use that situation to say that. Time and place

Next week I'll have to change the channel, right after Faith Hill sings. Lol

After banning hand guns, then we`re onto knives, baseball bats, ropes, chains, clubs, whiskey bottles, anything toxic, airplanes, trains, chain saws, screw drivers, cars, and eventually bare hands and feet. C`mon; if someone REALLY wants to murder someone they WILL find a weapon to use. The same gun he used can lay there until it literally rusts away and IT will not kill anyone in the process...a SAD situation, but at least he spared the public the expense of a trial. May God comfort their families...

Another DA liberal, should make a lot of gun toting liberals happy, what a da

Naw. Can't do that. What would Joe Montana use in his commercials?

Ha, Costas, what a joke. He is probably like all the other celebs who are for banning guns, bet he has a hand gun stashed at home and 4 gun totin body guards.with him asst all times.

One day Costa will be in a situation and the first thing he is going to wish is that he had a way to defend himself! Yeh! Costa, go walk around any major city unprotected ans see what you get! Don't blame the gun but the person for their acts!

And I was thinking that Fox Network was the only place a non liberal could turn. The original article that Costas was talking about, and agreeing with, was written by a reporter from Fox Sports.

You know that kinda took me by surprise too. Costas said he did not ofter agree with him but on this he did. I suspect that is the reason Costas and NBC jumped on it; because of who wrote it. :bash

PEOPLE kill PEOPLE, whether with a weapon or with their bare hands. EXECUTING murderers and other violent criminals is the ONLY 100% GUARENTEED "cure" for them. An exectuted criminal will NEVER be a "repeat' offender again, and in many countries they simply do NOT tolerate allowing violent criminals to languish in prison awaiting their freedom at public expense so someday they can go back out into society and commit the same kind of crime. Convict them, allow their appeal and within 5 yrs it`s DYING time...it DOES have a deterent effect !
