He wants a person fired because he said something he disagrees with. Thats not making a statement, but rather attempting to limit a viewpoint.

Sorry, I don't agree with the bullshit Costas said either. He still has every right to say it though.

The Constitution is there to limit government powers and the BOR is there to guarantee individual and state's rights. I had no problem with Imus getting canned, Zumbo getting Zumbo'd or Costa getting creamed. The right to complain about a product is not a violation of free speech. Its customer feedback. If you put out a shitty product and people complain, that is the free market at its finest

My problem, other than the fact that Costas is an uninformed individual on crime and firearms, is I do not care about sports. I do not watch professional, collage or any sport for that matter.  So for me to complain to the NFL just would be disingenuous of me. he will not be fired, he will not apologize and the network does not care.

actions have consequences.

Say shit about my wife and there will be consequences as well (not sayin' you would or did)

people want to live in a consequence free world, but that is not reality.

he is free to say whatever he wants, but he is not free from any consequence that arises from it. if one does not like the back lash, he better have the mettle to back it up and prevail.

That's freedom.

sadly most Americans no longer understand what freedom means, they think freedom means a marshmallow ride to the land of rainbows and unicorns.

There is always a price for freedom, sometimes it's instant, othertimes it takes a few decades to pay the bill. but the debt will always be paid or freedom will no longer be evident.

However freedom can always be purchased back, but the cost of buying it back is always higher than maintaining it.

Here's why you should say something.

If everytime someone rants about gun ownership and anti gun statements its followed by crickets and nothing, then the concensus will be everyone agrees with the statements.

Silence IS consent.

We are loosing our gunrights because gun owners sit by and do nothing.  You are the problem if you let others bitch and complain and don't fight back.

This thread is purely raciaphobic. Next thing you know, we will be making laws under the 2nd Amendment that denies black men guns, because there are more black men killing other black men with guns than there are white men killing black men or black men killing white men, on the streets of Chicago, of course, percentage-wise.

[ETA]  On the other hand, they could just outlaw returning vets, homeschoolers, AND all NFL players and coaches from having firearms.

Send e-mails to your local NBC affiliates and do it now! What Costas did was to advocate limiting our personal freedoms it was a statement of hate. He has a right to express his opinion. We also are entitled to express our opinion and take action in response to his words. If you are concerned about your 2nd Amendment rights contact NBC and express your opinion.  Hey after all it is free speech in action.

How many times have I got to say this?  This has zip, nada, nothing to do with 1A or free speech. Lies or no lies, this about a company spokesman (that's exactly what Costas is) making a stand and you have the right to let that company know that you disagree. If you go out to eat and your steak is awful or you get terrible service somewhere, you can complain to the manager/owner. That is free enterprise.

 
If the government steps in, THEN it becomes a civil rights issue.

Of course they are.

Free speech means you can say whatever you want. Veracity has nothing to do with it.

Costas right to free speech means that he is free to tell lies and twist facts.

If enough people disagree with Costas and are willing to 'vote with their wallet', the sponsors
of his program may not feel this program is the best place to advertise while he is one of their representatives.

It's a free country. Bob Costas is free to say stupid shit, tell lies and twist facts and I am free to not watch MNF, or buy a Toyota that is advertised on MNF.
