Bob Costas: 'If Javon didn't own a gun he and his gf would be alive'

Here in Florida, if your MD or any person suspects you are not medically capable of driving a car responsably and reports that to the DMV they will re-examine your right to drive .

Here is one of the many "no one"'s advocating giving guns to violent felons. A nd hey if they were in prison for beating their wives or gf's and are going to use the gun to kill some bitch...well that's almost as good as shooting a black guy and then standing your ground to walk.

besides your insane hyperbolistic ranting, that and the fact that you just don't know what you're talking about anyway, i've been pretty damn consistent about ALL rights remaining inalienable, but that if you have shown you can't be responsible with the rights, then you don't deserve to remain in society. Do you have any issue with that????? one that you can explain logically anyway?

a drivers license is not required to buy a vehicle, nor is one required to drive it.

"Complete freedom of the highways is so old and well established a blessing that we have forgotten the days of the Robber Barons and toll roads, and yet, under an act like this, arbitrarily administered, the highways may be completely monopolized, if, through lack of interest, the people submit, then they may look to see the most sacred of their liberties taken from them one by one, by more or less rapid encroachment."

Robertson vs. Department of Public Works, 180 Wash 133, 147.

"Personal liberty, or the Right to enjoyment of life and liberty, is one of the fundamental or natural Rights, which has been protected by its inclusion as a guarantee in the various constitutions, which is not derived from, or dependent on, the U.S. Constitution, which may not be submitted to a vote and may not depend on the outcome of an election. It is one of the most sacred and valuable Rights, as sacred as the Right to private property ... and is regarded as inalienable."

16 C.J.S., Constitutional Law, Sect.202, p.987

"Personal liberty largely consists of the Right of locomotion -- to go where and when one pleases -- only so far restrained as the Rights of others may make it necessary for the welfare of all other citizens. The Right of the Citizen to travel upon the public highways and to transport his property thereon, by horse drawn carriage, wagon, or automobile, is not a mere privilege which may be permitted or prohibited at will, but the common Right which he has under his Right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Under this Constitutional guarantee one may, therefore, under normal conditions, travel at his inclination along the public highways or in public places, and while conducting himself in an orderly and decent manner, neither interfering with nor disturbing another's Rights, he will be protected, not only in his person, but in his safe conduct."

II Am.Jur. (1st) Constitutional Law, Sect.329, p.1135

"Personal liberty -- consists of the power of locomotion, of changing situations, of removing one's person to whatever place one's inclination may direct, without imprisonment or restraint unless by due process of law."

Bovier's Law Dictionary, 1914 ed., Black's Law Dictionary, 5th ed.;
Blackstone's Commentary 134; Hare, Constitution__Pg. 777

"The use of the highways for the purpose of travel and transportation is not a mere privilege, but a common and fundamental Right of which the public and the individual cannot be rightfully deprived."

Chicago Motor Coach vs. Chicago, 169 NE 22;
Ligare vs. Chicago, 28 NE 934;
Boon vs. Clark, 214 SSW 607;
25 Am.Jur. (1st) Highways Sect.163

"The Right of the Citizen to travel upon the public highways and to transport his property thereon, either by horse drawn carriage or by automobile, is not a mere privilege which a city can prohibit or permit at will, but a common Right which he has under the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness."

Thompson vs. Smith, 154 SE 579

"... For while a Citizen has the Right to travel upon the public highways and to transport his property thereon, that Right does not extend to the use of the highways, either in whole or in part, as a place for private gain. For the latter purpose, no person has a vested right to use the highways of the state, but is a privilege or a license which the legislature may grant or withhold at its discretion."

State vs. Johnson, 243 P. 1073;
Cummins vs. Homes, 155 P. 171;
Packard vs. Banton, 44 S.Ct. 256;
Hadfield vs. Lundin, 98 Wash 516

"Heretofore the court has held, and we think correctly, that while a Citizen has the Right to travel upon the public highways and to transport his property thereon, that Right does not extend to the use of the highways, either in whole or in part, as a place of business for private gain."

Willis vs. Buck, 263 P. l 982;
Barney vs. Board of Railroad Commissioners, 17 P.2d 82


and ...

"The right of the citizen to travel upon the highway and to transport his property thereon, in the ordinary course of life and business, differs radically and obviously from that of one who makes the highway his place of business for private gain in the running of a stagecoach or omnibus."

State vs. City of Spokane, 186 P. 864


"the right of the Citizen to travel upon the highway and to transport his property thereon in the ordinary course of life and business, differs radically and obviously from that of one who makes the highway his place of business and uses it for private gain in the running of a stagecoach or omnibus. The former is the usual and ordinary right of the Citizen, a right common to all, while the latter is special, unusual, and extraordinary."

Ex Parte Dickey, (Dickey vs. Davis), 85 SE 781

the only good reasons for gun control are to ensure that people remain controlled by government. If guns were truly as dangerous as the statists/anti-gunners claim, they would not provide exemptions to government agents.

Can you point to the body of legal work that states the "right to drive shall not be infringed"? Perhaps legal opinions that say as much? I'll absolve the $1,000 you owe me if you can.

It's almost criminal how stupid that sentence from Costas is...

It's like he doesn't realize that the man could strangle her, then take pills. Or break her neck then drive off a cliff...

This tragedy wasn't caused by him owning a gun, nor would it have stopped him from his "plan"... If the absence of guns would stop domestic violence then those moms who drowned their kids never killed anybody...

What an a$$!

Costas said this at halftime of the Cowboys-Eagles game tonight. He blamed guns for Javon Belcher being able to kill himself and his gf as if husbands haven't killed wives by means other than with guns or people haven't committed suicide without use of a gun. And he states this during a football game. WTF Costas? SMH.

Everything that Bob Costas said was exactly how Liberal Bias NBC thinks about grabbing our guns. All the hoopla from NBC is BS, they are going through the motions as if they were outraged, its all BS to appease the pro gun south. Let's see some sponsors demand that Bob Costas get fired for using a public Federally licensed airway to promote a political view or have an NRA guy like me go on TV and discuss why we need to keep our guns. That was a prepared speech by Costas, the real people that NBC and Costas are trying to influence are the non shooting MOMS who want to save their kiddies from being executed by a gun nut, what a crock of dog doo !!!!!,

That's why I hate Costas. I don't want to hear his histrionics and political bullshit when I'm watching a ball game. If I wanted to listen to some uninformed moron of a mouth breather spout stupidity about politics I'd listen to Rush Limbaugh. Shut the fuck up and call the game Costas!

I don't know what his politics are but he's a lot better looking than Rush. That gives him some leeway, sorry. :)

There is no moore beating around the Bush, I am RIGHT on again and all you Lib Demos out there know it. When will the Lib Girleymen on this Forum call a spade a spade and admit that Costas needs to be fired from NBC? We all know that it will never happen because NBC was behind the whole thing, they probably even wrote his speech. This is exactly how the Lib Demos Walter Cronkite and Dan Rather operated, they would interject there Lib tainted BS, and since the People had faith in them, as they do with Costas's Sports broadcasing they would take it as "The Gospel"....
 
If anybody didn't know that Costas was liberal by viewing his commentaries and his approach to sports they haven't been very observant. What he said doesn't surprise me one bit. But neither does the response he received via social media and such as a result of those remarks. I mean...it was a Cowboys game for goodness sake. Did he actually think that his drivel would resonate with the majority of the viewing audience that evening? My wife said as she watched him, "Oh, that's gonna go over like a lead balloon."
