49ers Donate $500K To Gun Control Push
The Daily Caller ^ | 10/26/2017 | Nick Givas

Posted on 10/26/2017 11:37:41 AM PDT by ForYourChildren

The San Francisco 49ers weighed in on the national firearms debate Thursday, announcing their $500,000 donation to push for more gun control and a ban on bump stocks.

The team is partnering with local and national law enforcement in an effort to create a “safer America,” by banning silencers and and armor piercing rounds, according to ESPN writer Nick Wagoner.

A portion of the donation will also fund public service announcements geared towards police brutality and violence.

Wow.

The NFL says: “you are with NFL” or “you are with America”

Tough choice - NOT!

The idiot owner even sided with Kaperdick on the kneeling issue. This aint the 49ers of Bill Walsh.

Once they made their club into a social justice cause....it was no longer a sport. It might as well be wrestling-type entertainment with fake characters, etc. It’ll be interesting in three years to watch it disintegrate with the business model a total failure.

The owner of the 49ers is very likely a billionaire.Assuming that he is a billionaire and an advocate of open borders *and* gun control I wonder how high the wall is that surrounds his Marin County mansion and by how many armed guards this wall is protected.

Completely turn off the NFL. If you have Directv simply tell them to remove the NFL channel. Millions have done that reducing the revenue paid to the NFL from the subscribers. Seats are empty but wait until next year. If you haver spent $3000 for season tickets , you are going to go. That is all they have in the stands but next year many will not spend the $3000 to watch anti American black employees desecrate our flag and our anthem on our money. I predict 30% drop in season tickets. Never allow this to continue.

To be fair, SF 49’ers fans might be so desperate after the past couple of seasons, that maybe they should be kept away from firearms. /S

No more tax breaks for you, NFL. Trump and Congress should make that a part of Tax Reform.

***to push for more gun control and a ban on bump stocks. ***

Gun control, passed in 1968, has not stopped gun crime. And if you look real close at bump stocks, you can make one at home real easy.

Once they stopped letting people carry inside their stadiums, the NFL’s anti-2A position was made clear. This is not a surprise.
