PFTDuring Sunday’s edition of Football Night in America, Peter King of Sports Illustrated reported that, in the wake of last Saturday’s murder-suicide involving Chiefs linebacker Jovan Belcher, at least seven NFL players have turned in their guns to team security personnel. According to King, at least one player surrendered multiple guns, telling the team that he doesn’t trust himself.

If you’re an NFL player who willingly gives his guns away to “team security personnel” for no reason then congratulations you’re a fucking idiot. Not only are you on your own team’s “watch list” now but every decision maker in the league will forever know you as the crazy guy who is so crazy he doesn’t trust himself around guns. Give it to a friend, lock it in a safe in your basement, or donate them to some gun recycling charity I’m sure exists in the South somewhere. Giving your guns to your own football team personnel? Yeah — if you’re on special teams — prepare to be cut.

Also — what is your plan for the revolution now that you’re gunless? “What revolution” you ask? THE revolution, stupid. The one where you’re gonna need guns and shit because your mouth won’t be able to get out of it. What you gonna do then…beg the team for your .38 back?

Can guns be used for evil such as in the case of Jovan Belcher? Of course. But they’re also the only sure-fire way to protect your family against intruders, ill-wishers, and every hater in between. Without a gun the Queen of England could just walk in your house and start pushing you around. Can’t have that. Keep a strap tucked away in your house and tell your football team your guns are none of their damned business.
