"Handguns do not enhance our safety. They exacerbate our flaws, tempt us to escalate arguments and bait us into embracing confrontation rather than avoiding it."

People who believe this are ignorant to the facts. It has been proven over and over again that cities and countries with strict gun bans have higher crime/murder rates than their counterparts.

Just read an article pointing out how Bob's employer, NBC, aires lots of shows that are full of shootings and gun violence. Bob Costas and NBC say they are for gun control but they don't mind making millions off of shows that glorify gun violence.

Also pointed out that Whitlock is always writing about how his favorite show is The Wire and he often quotes lines from the show in his articles. Have not watched The Wire but I understand there is lots of gun violence on the show. Why is Whitlock not calling for an end to these types of shows that promote gun violence?

Was this scripted? Is NBC riding the Gun Control bandwagon? Or is this just DA Bob Costas taking the opportunity to express his personal belief.

I also found his commentary uniformed and ignorant. Some people are saying its not his fault, because Whitlock wrote it. I am a believer in the words came out of his f- tard mouth therefore he is accountable for what was said. I have voiced my opinion to the NBC rep in my area. I guess forks are the cause of obesity, sooooo why in the ell are the lib fags not after having them banished. And to the post above yes NBC is about as far left wing as you can get.
Damn, i thought I had that one

Is that buddy of yours tryin to blow that call or make love to it?

I emailed NBC Sports and called and left a message with WCBI, the NBC affiliate in Columbus, MS. This is the only way to handle issues such as this is to voice your opinion. Be courteous, respectful and know your facts before calling.

Good thing I don't watch NBC to begin with. Haven't watched their channel for years. I don't even watch local news on their channel.

I didn't see the comments because I don't watch pro football either, so I guess I'm already doing my part in boycotting NBC and Bob Cuntus.

i'd say riding the wagon. they're as much democrat homers as fox is republican homers.
today show's savanna & matt toss fat softball pitches to dems, but constantly (and consistently) interrupt and try to argue down repubs.
snl writers also rip repubs on a regular basis..i.e. prime time specials during final campaign push prior to election targeting republican candidates... with obligatory "ribbing" of a dem goof by biden, but he makes it almost impossible not to.

Jason Whitlock said this morning on some news show that the NRA is the modern day KKK. Essentially stated that the NRA is placing guns in blacks hands to kill each other with...
