Kion Wilson Gets His Gun Stolen.

And what do you have against guns?

This is a football forum so I won't go into detail. Look at the world. Places where guns are readily available typically (but not always) have high rates of violence involving guns.

And if you want to pull out the argument that they may be needed for some future revolution against oppression, I don't think the arsenal private individuals have will match up well against a well-armed state. There are other answers.

But again, I prefer to talk football.

I take a gun with me everywhere. I normally conceal it inside the pants/belt line. Yes, even into BestBuy.

while i admire your paranoia, i don't understand why he needs three handguns and a shotgun when he goes shopping. the article says he was in charlotte but are we sure he wasn't actually in ciudad juarez?

Yeah, that's what the King George III (1776), King Louis (1789), Czar Nicholas II (1918), Bautista (1958), Mubarak & Ghadafi (2011) thought too. How'd that work out for them?

The ugly fact is that there are people i the world who won't be bargained or reasoned with, and who pay back the good intentions and efforts of well-meaning, civilized, and restraint-led people with violence. The only thing such people understand and respect is strength and the willingness to use it. I'm not a gun nut either, but I do believe that having the right to arm myself is a fundamental right for the protection of myself and the things and people I hold dear. As for the "other"answers you allude to, when they work they're great. When they don't, the bottom line is that each of us is ultimately responsible for our own defense and that of our neighbors against those who will not be constrained by the artificial boundaries of law and civility...just my opinion, of course.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
