Bob Costas Doubles Down On Gun Comments

After the Jovan Belcher murder/suicide, Bob Costas said: "In the coming days, Jovan Belcher's actions and their possible connection to football will be analyzed. Who knows? ..... If Jovan Belcher didn't possess a gun, he and Kasandra Perkins would both be alive today."

After Josh Brent was arrested early Saturday on a charge of intoxication manslaughter because his teammate, Jerry Brown, died in car accident, Bob Costas said: "In the coming days, Josh Brent's actions and their possible connection to football will be analyzed. Who knows? ..... If Josh Brent didn't possess a car, he and Jerry Brown would both be alive today."

And spoons make you fat.  It's not about guns or cars or spoons it is about responsibility.  If you have a gun, match it's power with responsibility, so with a car and a spoon.  Some 8,000 die by guns each year, 40,000 by cars.  Depends on who is counting. But the point is responsibility, which takes human action, not the tool which does nothing but await human choice.
