Weepy Lil Mikey Lupica Sniffles Over SO MUCH AMMO!

"...Roger Goodell, the new commissioner of the NFL, ought to understand something: There is the growing perception that the sound of gunfire around his sport is becoming routine. The last time a gun went off before Tommy Urbanski, a former pro wrestler working a part-time job at Minxx, took one in the torso it was a defensive back for the Denver Broncos, Darrent Williams, being shot dead in a white Hummer limousine following a club dispute on New Year's Eve.

And one of the stars at the last Super Bowl for the Chicago Bears was Tank Johnson, another one who doesn't just belong in the National Football League but clearly The League of Distinguished Gentlemen as well. Last December, when Johnson's home in Gurnee, Ill., was raided, police seized six loaded and unloaded guns and approximately 500 rounds of ammunition, presumably because Mr. Johnson was considering rushing the state of Wisconsin instead of Brett Favre..."

Lets see; 500 rounds is a decent couple days worth of range fodder, and what Lil Mikey Loon (TM) hasn't a clue about is the fact that a lot of folks buy ammunition in bulk and such a relatively small stash is legal in ALL free states, as well as the...gasp...SIX LOADED AND UNLOADED GUNS!...end gasps.

It's become vogue for sports scribes in big liberal cities to try their hand at social commentary, and of course they don't even attempt to straddle any fences while looking for the truth, but instead editorialize, and usually about something they have not a whiff of expertise about. Was a time when the sports guy was a down to earth, no bullshit, Conservative sort of fellow, but he is being replaced by the new breed of blissninny hacks who dabble in telling us how awful America is, and how vile firearms truly are.

The REAL story is the who, what, when, and where, of WHY minority athletes chose to break the law as often their disadvantaged brethren, and in truth it is a fascinating exercise. Crime, the liberals tell us, is due to the fact that poor people do bad things because they are poor. Why the rich and famous do bad things is too hot a topic to broach, and when in doubt there's always the tool to blame instead of the attitude.
