As soon as I saw the buzz that Bloomberg’s Everytown was partnering with the NBA, my first thought was, “Professional athletes: yet another class of people with much higher rates of criminality than concealed carry permit holders.” Well, before I could work out any numbers, Dave Hardy was there with the scoop: “350 NBA players who have been charged with criminal acts. A simple search turns out 28 players with gun charges.”
Sounds like a great idea, guys. I was kind of missing the almost daily stories about mayors getting arrested, indicted, and then having them quite often be MAIG mayors. They took that fun away from us. Thanks for giving it back!
Thanks. I needed to finally see something lighthearted posted here after the past few days. ;)
Snicker. What a fine collection of upstanding young men.
What’s next for Everytown? Maybe a promotional deal with rap’s NWA?
I’m with you. Virginia gun owners need to know their (in)action affects is all.
