Gilbert Arenas suspended by NBA indefinitely, without pay, for storing guns in his locker.

This came the day after he made a finger gesture of shooting his teammates during the team's visit to Philadelphia. That was the straw that broke the Camel's back.

I'm so sad. <---- extreme sarcasm

5. And Arenas is a shooting guard.

Hey. I report. You decide. :rofl:

9. Gotta love irony.

3. If only guns were outlawed

we wouldn't be having stars throw away their careers like this. Sad but true.

12. Just like the rich and famous don't get involved with cocaine and hookers...

because they're banned too, right?

Please tell me you don't actually believe "if guns were outlawed" stars would not acquire them.

Finger gestures, I mean.

7. He was prepared in case he needed to shoot somebody in the crowd!

He was just exercising his 2nd Amendment rights! You never know when somebody's going to open fire with an AK-47, he was ready to take action just in case that happened.

:sarcasm:

8. Sorta like Plaxico?

10. He loses $147,000 for every game he misses under suspension

So, like, he gets paid about $75,000 as his hourly rate of employment.

I am willing to substitute.

11. Hmm...What's a teabagger to do...

Moran #1: "Good for the rotten Darkie."

Moran #2: "But he's defending our 2nd amendment rights."

Hopefully this even will cause them all to spontaneously combust.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

15. meh, there were a few eye-brow raising reactions at DU too.

Moran #1: "Good for the rotten gangsta rap musician."

[BolivarianHero]

16. Heh...

Rock utterly destroy rap or pop anyways.

[BurtWorm]

13. They wouldn't do that if they were NRA.

:hide:

17. I read earlier that the NBA Players union was going to step in if action was taken

against either player. Anybody seen anything more?
