Gun-Crazy Right Wing Howls for Bob Costas to Be Fired

I own guns, and I like Bob Costas. F the haters trying to muzzle a man for voicing an opinion.

I’m really not smart enough to figure a good strategy on this issue… I sometimes think I would gladly trade my license to carry for Israeli-style security, i.e. trained guys with firepower visible here and there on the streets, if it meant never having to read about some heinous broad-daylight crazy assault/murder in my metro area again.

I used to own more guns than I do now, but I downsized and kind of left the shooting scene, mainly because of the people and the politics.

I don’t object to some notion of “control” or a real effort to reduce the number of handguns in circulation in the country, as long as it was part of a serious national dialogue on violence committed by young males, and the cultural problems we seem to have with aggression, lashing out, and “taking others out”.

So, I’m on the fence… I’d like to keep & bear, but I’m not a nut about it anymore.
