“I’m sorry that NFL fans are too stupid to understand what I meant. I should have known better than to try and explain my point in 90 seconds to a bunch of bitter, gun clinging, bible thumping, tea-baggers.”

Thanks, Bob.

Bob Costas is a cheerleader of the Culture of Sports that produces a lot of violent criminals.

The NFL are the POSTER BOYS for crony capitalism. They absolutely would not exist without tax dollars. They have a government sanctioned hand into our back pockets and we may not resist their touch.

"Why do you need a semi-automatic weapon? What possible use is there?"

Oh, I can think of at least one possible use in particular, Mr. Costas.

If only we had common sense legislation and regulations with strict enforcement as to who can appear on the public airwaves, millions of Americans wouldn’t be offended everyday by those who have nothing but contempt for their fellow man. We wouldn’t be having this conversation because clowns like this would be removed from the public airwaves immediately upon making the statements he did.

"... before we realize the right to bear arms doesn’t protect us from a government equipped with stealth bombers, predator drones, tanks and nuclear weapons?”

Let me tell you something Skippy. All the stealth bombers, predator drones, tanks and nuclear weapons in the world won't help you one bit when I'm holding a pistol to your head. Once I pull the trigger, those toys belong to me. Ask the North Vietnamese. Ask the Taliban. Ask Al Qaeda.

I caught a piece of Costas’ “apology” on the local sports radio outlet tonight. He went on about the Aurora Co. movie theater shooting. That no one could have stoppped the shooter because he was dressed in full body armor.

Bob is still engaged in the MSM incest that believes that a black tactical vest is “body armor”.

It’s black, it has pockets and zippers and rings. It won’t stop a bullet from an armed citizen.

When you are in a hole, Bob....

Stop digging.

Bob Costas assisting 0bama's second term goal of overturning the 2nd Amendment. Who would'a thunk? Just another event cherry-picked by the media to foment another 0bama assault on our Constitution. Now, if they can get 'Zimmerman/Trayvon' and 'Belcher/Costas' going concurrently, that's the bee's knees!

I wonder if George Soros calls 0bama's propaganda houses (news outlets) and says "Make a BIG DEAL out of this one, okay?.. I've already sent the check!! Remember, you are not JOURNALISTS, you are repWHOREters for 0bama!"

NFL = Modern day Roman circus to distract the masses from the fact that empire is sinking into obscurity.

I beg to differ here. Costas is in possession of 'a full-auto assault mouth'...

Whitlock’s absurd rant can be excused because he is another Affirmative Action hire that fills a quota for Fox. There is absolutely no excuse for Costas’s stupid un-American diatribe, however. But because NBC is a Leftist sounding board, he will probably get a raise.

What anti gun nuts conveniently forget is that one of the first school shootings that occurred at Pearl, Ms. high school ended when an assistant principal got his pistol from his car and confronted the shooter...

If anti gun nuts really believe that being disarmed makes you safer, then wear some kind of ribbon (blood red, maybe?) indicating you are proudly disarmed and quit hiding behind those who’ve accepted the responsibility and security the 2nd Amendment provides.

FIRE Costas.

Let’s apply the standard both ways – if a Conservative gets political, they are fired.

The reason: that he’s an idiot and a racist.

He doesn’t seem to comprehend that most guns sold are semi automatic – i.e. he would like most guns banned.
