Really Plaxico?

This is a brief diversion from the usual political banter...

WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU??? Is what people should be saying to Plaxico Burress. Recently, Plaxico shot himself in the thigh with the gun he had brought into the club for 'protection'. As stated in the movie Snatch, 'protection from what? Zee Germans??'.

I realize that sports stars are at greater risk than you or I, but they have money to hire proper security!!! Plaxico has a history of breaking team rules, but to break a gun law in one of the most gun control happy cities (outside of DC) is just plain stupid. Get an ex-cop to run your security team (they can conceal and carry weapons legally in most states) or get your conceal and carry license.

Let's imagine for a moment that Plaxico had needed to shoot someone, how long would it take him to get the gun out of his pocket (without shooting himself) in order to defend himself? 30sec? 1min?

This story is hilarious until you realize how sad of a tale Placico's may become. The law frowns upon this. Plaxico could go to jail for longer than Michael Vick!

Message to the Giants wide receiver, Plaxico Burress: PLEASE STOP SHOOTING YOURSELF!!! Literally and figuratively!
