John Lott takes on NFL announcer Bob Costas

Posted by David Hardy · 3 December 2012 12:28 PM

The announcer claimed, over the air, that if Jovan Belcher hadn't had a gun, he wouldn't have been able to kill his girlfriend and then himself. As Lott points out, does Coastas think a 228 pound NFL linebacker couldn't kill someone with his bare hands, a club, or a knife?

So Mr. Costas I guess that college professor and his girlfriend and his son in Caspar WY aren't really dead because no gun was used, just a compound bow and a knife or two...

Sheesh.

Using a knife to murder your family is much more politically correct.

Jim D: actually in Britain they are talking about knife control but honestly back in the early 1900's when guns were very common the preferred way to kill someone was to use a cosh and beat them to death. My understanding is that this has not changed much in Britain.

What kind of gun did OJ use?

Actually Costas doesn't think a 228 pound NFL linebacker could kill someone with his bare hands, a club, or a knife, because he couldn't do that, and for all their talk about nuance, imagination and all that, Leftists are pretty unimaginative except when it comes to projecting their own feelings onto others.
