Gilbert Arenas and Charlton Heston BFFL Buddies

Unless you have been living under a rock for the past week you no doubt have heard about good 'ol Gilbert Arenas's antics involving the alleged incident at the Washington Wizards home, the Verizon Center. Arenas supposedly brought as many as three handguns to the arena and displayed them in front of a teammate's locker before a game. Apparently Gilbert didn't get the memo about D.C. being one of the strictest cities in the nation when it comes to gun crimes. NBA commish David Stern has reacted by suspending Arenas indefinitely. However, according to Stern, he did not suspend Arenas based on the incident but rather by his reaction in the days following reports. Arenas was repeatedly seen laughing and giggling during postgame interviews when asked about the incident. How dumb do you have to be? Honestly? Let me pose a hypothetical scenario to help illustrate just how absurd this moron's actions were.

I come into work Monday morning, stop at the break room, grab a cup of coffee. As I am walking to my cubicle I stop at my friend Jack's cube and give him a hard time about beating me in that card game we played last night. Unfortunately, I bet more cash than I had on me, so I had to come up with some collateral. Instead of going to an ATM that morning to pay my dues, I decide to bring my Glock 9mil in to work to settle my debt with Jack. I pull the piece out and slam it down on Jacks workstation. We spend the next ten minutes joking around holding the gun and pointing it at people. "Here ya go Jackie, its all yours, are we even now?"

The tragedy about this story is that these idiots don't realize that their ( I say their because there have been many more before Gilbert) actions are wrong. I mean how much more obvious can it be. You live in a city that not too long ago had the honor of having the highest murder rate in the U.S. Couple that with a strict stance on gun crimes rivaled only by NYC and you have to wonder who is guiding people like Gilbert. Honestly, I think a sixth grader with Downs Syndrome could've told him this was a bad idea. My solution: All NBA/NFL players must take D.A.R.E. classes in their rookie season and be banned from playing Grand Theft Auto until their retirement.
