SPEAK UP: BOB COSTAS' ANTI-GUN COMMENTS
Tom Gresham's Gun Talk Newsletter ^ | Dec. 3, 2012 | Tom Gresham

Posted on 12/03/2012 1:33:41 PM PST by deoetdoctrinae

To see Clueless Costas blithely skip into the middle of this tragedy with such shallow and demonstrably false assumptions belies his reputation as a heretofore respected reporter.

The mountain of evidence to contradict his anti-gun assertions looms large and would have been easy to find.

Probably right...............

As it is...you can't hardly touch a QB without it being a flag. Thus, may as well make it flag football.

Turned it off myself. F the NFL. I’m done with them. I say we jump on the concussion bandwagon and bankrupt their ass.

Right on! Between the panty-waste pink as a fashion for boob awareness, the mamby-pamby whining about how dangerous football has become, the PC BS associated with having women on the field and in the locker room and now 2nd Amendment politics.... Here is another great American thing that, though the noblest of goody for all intentions, is being relegated to mediocrity.

You want fix the concussion issue? Make them play without pads and helmets. The injuries would be a lot bloodier but the brains would be saved. Let the cheerleaders promote Breast Cancer Awareness. Football player don't get breast cancer that often. Every call doesn't have to be right. It's a fast game. Rank the refs and publish it. Pay them based on their rank. Get the F#$@k out of politics. No politicians should be allowed to say "NFL" by trademark infringement. That would make the game better.

Costas should be knee capped with a mace. An a$$hole rich football player murders the mother of his own 3 month old child, goes to his coaches to feel sorry for him, blows his brains out in front of them, and Costas wants to talk about gun control legislation? There are about 20 different subjects (many of which would also be pithy) concerning the issue before you should ever get to interpretation of the Constitution.

Costas should be fired. If someone ordered him to read that crap, they should be fired too and Costas should be fired for not telling them to screw off.

Emails to the Director of Marketing of any major sponsor to the NFL WILL have repercussions

Lead us. Who do I write to?

National Felon Football League would be more appropriate.

Fire that socialist piece of crap. Democrats and the media want us all to be slaves of the federal government .And they want to take our guns away so that we cannot defend ourselves against criminals nor against the evil government. Stupid democrats trust government and willingly vote for their own enslavement . Idiot liberals.

On talk radio today, a caller said that anyone who is afraid of guns, and/or doesn’t own one, should have nothing to say against the 2nd Amendment.

Where is the best place to send an email?

Darn good question! I've gone through the NFL website, as well as using search engines, and cannot for the life of me find ANY e-mail address for anyone in the NFL, from the commissioner down to the janitorial staff. Will keep looking, and advise if I find anything.

I can guarantee you the NFL is rethinking their decision to allow Costas to attack the Constitution of the United States.

Those idiots can get bent. I say every player gets a brain scan before and after EVERY game.

Following that, they should allow appeals from the other team when they find brains to scan.

I have had some polite interaction with victims of gunphobia. I ask them why they aren't deathly afraid of driving their SUV down the highway at 70 MPH, loaded with their family on feet away from perfect strangers. There are a lot of moving parts and operating a vehicle is VERY complicated. There are a lot of controls, it takes two hands, your feet and a lot of focus to avoid killing yourself and others.

Now why does a machine with 2 to 4 moving parts scare you again?

LOL!

Thanks for the laugh, but I am serious. Bankrupt the NFL.
They attacked the United States Constitution to take attention away from their own negligence.

They are not all power. This attack was coordinated.

Sorry, but I agree with Bob on this one. I want that gun to be found, brought into court and tried in front of its peers. IF found guilty, I think it should receive the death penalty which should be carried out within two hours with no appeals.

...a firearm will not kill anybody or anything by itself.

Yup, my guns have been in my house for over 40 years and not ONE has ever gotten out of the safe and killed anyone.

It is the same old thing that the Gun Banners always forget. The gun’s don’t kill anyone, it is the person holding the gun that does the killing.

I am 83 years old, I go back to the Roosevelt, Era, I can say without any qualms that I am glad to be this old. I can remember, when people's word amounted to something.The majority of politicians really cared about their constituents. The sermon on Sunday would be from the Bible and have some meaning about leading a better life.The churches were not involved in same sex marriages. When you got up in the morning, it was the beginning of another beautiful experience, Mom was in the kitchen fixing Breakfast Dad was at work. Now the whole world is a mess/ Nothing has any meaning anymore, and I am ready and looking forward to moving on. The lying cheating untrustworthy people can have the world. They made this mess let them live in it.
