"Gun bans don't disarm criminals, gun bans attract them." Walter Mondale
Bob Costas: Stick To Reporting On Sports.
Gun owners have a simple message to Bob Costas: Stick to sports.
At last Sunday's NFL game between the Eagles and Cowboys, Bob Costas decided to do a commentary about Kansas City Chief's linebacker, Jovan Belcher, murdering his wife then shooting himself. Costas, like anyone else, has the right to his opinion. Unfortunately, he doesn't have the right to his own facts.
As most anti-gun activists do after such tragedies, Costas decided to embrace the easiest answer because it made him feel more comfortable. Once again, he placed blame on the firearm without knowing any facts in the case (Reports have surfaced recently that this player had a number of personal issues including alcohol and pill use in addition to debilitating head injuries).
Greg Gutfeld of The Five on Fox News said it best in my opinion: "So what is Costas saying? He's talking about a total gun ban, which makes him a hypocritical buffoon, because he spends most of his life wandering in and out of New York buildings where he is flanked by people who are armed...It really wasn't about the tragedy. It's about scoring points with other people in the media."
Gutfeld was right on target.
FBI Crime Report

Just last week, the State of VA reported firearm sales increased by 63% while violent crime decreased by 24%.
Germany To Register Gun Owners On International Registry
In two years, Germany will launch a registry of legal gun owners. This is in response to a mandate by the EU (European Union).
This will be a centralized international registry of legal gun owners. Nazis had a similar law in 1938. It was called The Nazi Weapons Law of 1938. Of course, we know what happened to 6 million Jews after they were disarmed in 1938.
