The guy that wrote the article where Costas got his info is upping his attack:
Never let a tragedy go to waste.....
Whitlock turns up personal attack on gun owners, calls NRA ‘new KKK’
The furor being directed against Bob Costas of NBC Sports for his diatribe against gun ownership during halftime at last night’s Cowboys-Eagles game in Arlington has overshadowed the source of much of his rant, a Saturday column by Fox Sports commentator Jason Whitlock, blaming the gun for a murder/suicide committed over the weekend by Kansas City Chiefs starting linebacker Jovan Belcher.
“Handguns do not enhance our safety,” Whitlock wrote. “They exacerbate our flaws, tempt us to escalate arguments, and bait us into embracing confrontation rather than avoiding it.”

NRA=KKK???
I don't think this can be correct...
I've been an NRA member for a very long time, and I still haven't got my sheets!

I didn't get the complimentary sheets and I've been a Life Member for over 10 years....
But, I did get a cool CRKT skinning knife.....egads!! not a killer knife....
The horror!!!!!
Oh the humanity!!!

Talk about revisionist history.
It was the NRA who had a program to help blacks get guns to protect themselves from the KKK.

Here's another one who needs to stop judging everyone by himself.

After 4 years of being called a racist for opposing the final socialist moves of the democrats why is any one surprised by this ?
NRA members generally vote Republican so they must be members of a group founded by democrats to oppose republican policies.

You got that right.
If you listen closely to libtards*, they sound like bleating sheep.
*caution - may lead to retching.

What they accuse us of is what they intend.

try to infringe on the first amendment and all writers and journalists including Costas and Whitlock would lose thier minds . But the second amendment is considered an outdated relic. Hypocrisy at its worst from people who should understand that the second allows the first.
-
What do you expect from a liberal idiot that works for the Kansas City Red Star and most of their staff support liberals. Whitlock is just a mouth trying to keep his job and how will gun control work down in the hood where obama voters reside . You don't need a gun if your in the mind to kill something and the liberals cry when you try to enforce our laws on a liberal

One Dallas based radio show played that interview with Whitlock this afternoon. I just about drove off the road when he drew the race card and accused the NRA of being the second coming of the Klan.
Why is it that in the abscense of logic and facts minorities always play the race card? Oh, my bad, i forget that things get done today based on emotion rather than fact. >:(
-
And maybe he forgot to mention how a lot of gun control laws were designed to keep guns out of the hands of free blacks? Idiot!
-
Another ironic thing about this..
I lived south of the border for 2010. I saw a Spanish video online from Hugo Chavez about us (NRA) portrayed in an animation kind of thing, that says we're the Klan, relabeled..
I guess that makes Chavez a third world dictator with real leadership qualities.. He teaches our leftists who we "really are".. ::)
I don't know if I'd rather slap em or piss in their boot..

Yep.
Which is what pisses me off so much about episodes like this.
Too many people (many on here) have sworn an oath to defend the Constitution....and many others have died.....just to give these clowns the freedom to speak as they please.....and then they waste that freedom by spouting inaccurate, personal, agenda-driven drivel..... and to me it is a slap in the face to all who have protected our freedoms.
Yeah, it's a double-edged sword.
I believe in their right to free speech.... I just wish they did too, at least enough to get the facts right from time to time.

Every enumerated right carries with it an unwritten responsibility .
The founders were thoughtful men who understood that.
The lack of that understanding today is why you can burn the flag but you can't pray in school.
Perverts and convicts don't have rights and Freedom of speech and press do not permit subversion of the Constitution.

Funny, I didn't know what color Whitlock was until I read his full article on line. I guess we don't even have to know WHEN to be racist, we just ARE no matter what the circumstances, and we can just be called on it when it fits.
The discussion was about gun control, not the institutional racism of the main stream media.
-
According to Chris Matthews, commenting on opposition to Susan Rice being nominated to replace Hillery,
"incompetent", and "liar" are code words for black.
I think we need to think hard about some one who hears the word "Black" and immediately thinks incompetent liar.

The NRA really needs to get this guy on their payroll.
