Heard it here after flipping over from The Walking Dead. Liberals don’t let a good tragedy go to waste it seems.

Talked about the Chiefs player shooting himself and said football wasn’t responsible but guns.. Referenced Jason Whitlock’s column..

Costas agreeing with a piece by Jason Whitlock about if the player that killed his wife and himself didn’t have a gun they would both be alive. Costas is a tool.

Bob Costas blaming the availability of handguns caused the death of the KC Football LB and his girlfriend. Thing is, Belcher could have killed his GF with a knife and then stabbed himself, taken pills or driven his car into something. Bob Costas needs to get another face lift and retire.

Doesn’t idiot Costas realize an athlete the caliber of an NFL linebacker could have killed her with his bare hands just as easily. The gun was NO FACTOR.

It’s NBC. I can’t stand Costas and his liberal crap either.

A clear violation of the Political Editorializing Rule. These liberals are nothing but criminals. The FCC will see nothing wrong with what the idiot Costas had to say.

Saw the same thing... Typical Liberal response... It’s the guns fault!

Hey Bob Costas (You little communist) the player who shot his girlfriend and them himself would have beaten her with a tire iron or ran his car into a bridge if the gun wasn’t available! Stick to sports MORON! I don’t care about your opinion about guns!

Same here. Costas can kiss my ass. I went looking for a good Duck Dynasty on the DVR instead.

Dallas, ..... you are on your own, tonight.

Write NBC and let them know what you think of them attacking the Bill Of Rights. THE PEOPLE’S RIGHTS.

I caught it and was about to start a thread.

Bob Costas starts out by moaning how some people have said that the murder/suicide made some people say “Well, that puts sports in the proper perspective”

He then drones on about some unknown news guy (from KC?) who wrote a blistering anti-gun article.

Costas ends by saying something to the effect that if the guy didn’t have a gun, two people would be alive now.

That dwarf has always really, really disturbed me.

But you have to expect the liberal press to use this event to their maximum advantage. Proof that they don’t really have a hint or a clue at all about what went down or is going on around them!

In other words, guns turn NFL linebackers into murderers?

I love football. I’m not turning off a good game because of Bob Costas’ idiocy. I WILL, however, be making a list of sponsors I intend to avoid buying from. Toyota, Cialis, NBC programs.
